- In this full-length interview, R&B/Soul veteran Angie Stone sits down with Shawn Prez to discuss her lengthy award-winning career. The Grammy-nominated songstress starts off by referring the VladTV viewers back to one of her earliest groups, The Sequence, before stating that the Southern-based rap trio blazed a trail for females in hip-hop way back in the late 1970s. She even reveals that the all-female group wrote hit songs like "Apache" for The Sugarhill Gang. She then talks about her evolution from the rapper Angie B to the soul singer Angie Stone. She also explains her thought process for leaving the trailblazing group in pursuit of a solo career.
As the conversation progresses, she details her first marriage with Lil' Rodney C! and the daughter their relationship produced. She also talks about her next high-profile relationship following her divorce. Angie Stone details falling in love with fellow R&B singer D'Angelo, collaborating with him as a songwriter, and the behind-the-scenes jealousy that disrupted their magical chemistry in the recording studio. Additionally, Angie touches on the difficulties of co-parenting a son with D'Angelo despite their differences.
Moving along, Angie Stone talks about being overweight during the prime of her career before sharing how her image back then impeded her progress as an artist. She then gives a nod to artists like Lizzo for giving plus-sized women a place in front of the camera and on stage in the music industry. From there, she talks about being cast in roles in films such as "The Hot Chick" and "The Fighting Temptation." Towards the end of the Q&A session, Angie talks about her working relationship with Clive Davis, mentoring artists such as Alicia Keys, putting Erykah Badu on, her role in creating D'Angelo's image, being a part of R&B Divas: Atlanta, and more.
Lastly, Swayvo Twain replaces his mother, Angie, as the interviewee to discuss his up-and-coming career as a rapper/singer. He shares some details about his father, D'Angelo, and the fact that he re-made an old song of his called "Sh*t, Damn, Motherf*cker."

Man...I'm less than 10 minutes into this interview and can tell it is going to be the most underrated and epic Vladtv interview of all time. That "funk you right on up" tea is CRAZY....she really had a hand in laying the blueprint for so many hip hop/rap songs for today. My heart hurts for what it means to be a trailblazer, because this is what it looks like. Starting the wave that everyone eventually rides to success, while never mentioning that it was because of YOU that they were able to ride. Mad props to Auntie Angie!! ❤💔
This! I was like 😯🤯🤯🤯💔💔💔 I have always loved her music and hated how she was done over D'Angelo but hearing all that has me heartbroken
7 mins in and my jaw dropped
ALL. OF. THIS.
Exactly!
I'm 1:16:02 into this interview! Angie...I had to pause it! I'm blow away at how you were done.
😮 Yeah, whoa, bless her heart. She’s been through it for real
MS. Angie Stone need her own show. She got a lot of info and she is so beautiful
What a great interview!✨
I love you Angie!!♥️
I think shes strong & very aware.. life is hard & she’s letting u that.. it ain’t all good at times, but she grafted for the best life!! 🙌🏽✌🏽

🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️
I love that she gave props to Andrea Martin 💐 RIP to a real one. Angie is a true Sagittarius ♐️ 💜 so bold & beautifully opinionated. This interview is golden✨✊🏾
I was very upset that Sequence was not included in the Unsung episode w/ Women in HipHop! They laid the blue print! We will always love ya in the Metro, Angie! I’m glad she was able to tell her truth!
This interview makes me love her that much more......❤️
I have always been an Angie Stone fan and she is so underrated R&B Neo-Soul Singer because has always been the bomb and superstar but what I love about her is that she knows her value and her worth no matter what Clive or all the other naysayers would say!! Great interview and continue soaring Angie.. Blessings to her
Angie Stone can saaaang and has such a rich music history-Seems You’re Much Too Busy is one of my favorite songs by Vertical Hold. It’s so disturbing that “The Sequence” has not received the recognition deserved as the first female rappers/hip hop artists and their contributions to Hip Hop. Especially as it relates to age; ole-head male hip hop artists/rappers are ALWAYS recognized and celebrated!
AMEN!
Michael might have a gift but he don't have the look😢 He comes off arrogant and its laughable.
Love this woman. I did not know a lot of stuff she did not get credit for. Igot mad respect for her. She really understands The biz and how to navigate it. She deserves grammy's and more. I love her spirituality. She's gracious..
God bless you Angie! Demand your flowers! Control your narrative!!! We see you! Do the biopic! If they won’t celebrate you. Celebrate yourself 🎉🎉🎉
I didn't appreciate this lady's music until I got grown. She's certified platinum in my book, but also an underrated talent & even great person.
This gentleman is a great interviewer, very engaging.
Angie is one of the staples of the music industry. Very talented and underrated.
Whew! finally the whole cut 🙌🏾I was all over the interview with those clips. That was messing up the flow 😂
@reddingmalik it was stressing me out 😂
I don’t know why VLAD chops up their interviews like that on first release.. then releases the entire interview after the fact. Maybe to build anticipation? But it’s a little annoying 😅
I be watching The Fighting Temptations just to hear Angie's colorful voice, 🥰😍🤩
Unfortunately they looked at the Angelo and her relationship as beauty and the beast and that's sad
Lunell shouldve been the interviewr but good interview
The industry definitely turned on her. If she would’ve been light skinned & skinny things would’ve been a lot different unfortunately. Shame on all of them! We love you Angie ❤
Much Respect to you Ms stone..I grew up on your music.God. Bless you!
Thank you for this interview. Chalked full of music education. Angie stoney has one of my favorite covers of all Time. She Sang a rendition of "Simply Redd's ""Holding Back The Years" salute
She’s soo gracious when it comes to D’Angelo, she’s reframing from saying he’s a bum dad! & person in general!
Great interview! I hope some folks make things right with Angie.
Her son don't look like neither of his parents. Loved this interview.
I love Angie music, I hate when people don't know their music or care to know their hip hop history. I'm 40 and I knew Angie was apart of Sequence and worked with Sugar Hill Gang. Angie was definitely being real in this interview and telling it like it is with this industry.
Angie is an inspiration to black women like me; she is the epitome of greatness that impacted some of the positive moments in my life.
FACTS, I LOVE Her
This is a story that you didn’t know you needed to hear
And after you hear it you will see how unprotected this black woman was in the industry
Good interview but when I heard when Swayvo Bang said he didn't want ppl to know who his parents are I understood that, bc when you have famous parents it puts pressure on you and have big shoes to fill bc ppl expect you to be as great as them and are going to expect you to be as great as them. You can take advice from your parents bc they will give you sound advice but in this situation, it is best t to create your own lane.
"I'm just happy being me, I'm regretting nothing about me. On my way to a milestone at 70 and this song is for me.
The music industry is still f’up…My hands up to Angie
I know that’s right…”in the corner getting a check” ❤
I love Angie Stone. I grew up watching my mother play Angie's music in the house in early 2000s...
This is a real WOMAN.
This interview was very informative ❤
Omg I loved Funk You Up! It was something new to my ears. I didn't know it was Angie Stone, but she's why it was everything. I wish she could go and get her money.
What is the nicest way to say "Son, stop"? 😮
Wow she has so much to tell ....we need her to get her flowers we luv u Angie 💓
Angie's interview portion is great . . .
Absolutely… the sons ego was too much for me
I think he'll find his footing after he pays his dues. He's definitely conflicted being in his parent's shadow. I wish him the best, especially as a bigger Black man.
God bless you Angie Stone
Damn she's a super legend 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Tell it miss Angie you are loved and known and respected more then u no your truly blessed
Talk yo' ish Legend!! I love Angie Stone. She is one of the few real singer-songwriters and creatives that we have left. She makes REAL music. Her albums are always solid, high-quality, enjoyable bodies of work. She needs all of her flowers now!
enjoyed this interview. I did not know Angie is a Sagittarius.
I can't go a day without listening to Angie Stone playlist....great interview
What a beautiful soul!
I love this interview❤😍❤️ and I love the fact that Doggie Diamond is the one that's interviewing her. That alone is iconic, y'all have NO IDEA how geeked I am right now, thank you so much DJ Vlad, Doggie Diamond, and Angie Stone for this amazing interview.
Love me some Angie Stone
This is so far the best interview
The beginning of 2023 The
authentic realness truth behind
The scenes of how dark and
Cold the industry was to Angie
Shame on Them We❤️❤️
Angie Stone! Thank you
For your Great continues music
Again Thank Legendary Queen
never knew Ms. Stone was a founder of hip hop, I listen to her music everyday!!! Her soulful voice is my motivation going to work!! I love you Ms. Stone!!!
I was 10 years old when Sequence first song came out. I've also wondered why people don't mention them. She made it known. Because they're from the south. That's messed up.
Have always loved this talented, underrated beauty
D' was much younger, I think. But he was a great producer, as she said. D is very talented. I sure liked that Brown Sugar album.
That son came in hot lmao relax kid
😂 I thought bro going come in all humble. He came in like Biggie about to drop that Ten Crack Amendments Track. Damn!
@@sbj5678 I’m like um he ghetto for no reason because I don’t believe it at all just sing negro lol
@malik redding very lol I wasn’t excepting none of what sat down in that chair NOTHING AT ALL 😂
Man listen Perez talk your stuff about that Mahogany Soul, that I miss I didn’t miss you anymore is a CLASSIC
The Queen on Neo-Soul, I don;t think she gets enough credit and respect
I love Angie Stone too. She should start a natural line of wigs, her hair it. The Angie Stone Collection, I can see that.
A class act indeed.
I LOVE ANGIE STONE!!!
Angie Stone we love & cherish ur contributions to all genres including hip hop, soul, R&B, neo-soul, etc.
A literal pioneer and legend gave us some game and history 💐!
Go Angie! One of my favorite duets is Angie Stone and Calvin Richardson ❤❤❤
I’m about to put that on my playlist
Shorty is a walking history lesson !
She’s a walking lesson in how to enable as many r@pists & ch1ld m0lestors as possible while trying to pretend it’s about “defending black men” smh stop with the cap Michael jackson literally admitted in an interview that he was sleeping in bed with little kids who weren’t his own children. absolutely no normal heterosexual non-ped0phile men have ever had sleep overs alone with little boys in a hotel room, there’s literally nothing u can say to defend that shit because we all know there’s no fuckin reason any man would be that obsessed with being alone with little boys, & anyone who still pretends like MJ was innocent is the exact reason why so many ped0philes crimes go unpunished & why even when there’s mountains of evidence victims will still be afraid to come forward because of how much mindless bullshit people like her always spout in defense of abusers & how much people always want to attack victims & ruin their lives & pick apart all the most difficult & depressing parts of their lives & just always belittle them & mock them in general. & no the fact that his victims had testified in the past that he never touched them doesn’t mean shit because we all know damn well that victims of abuse who are in love with their abuser (and also might idolize them when it comes to famous sexual predat0rs) will adamantly defend the person who abused them & will claim they never did anything wrong because both violent abusers & sexual abusers literally brainwash their victims the same exact way a cult members get brainwashed. But the worst part is how once the victims break free of that brainwashing & finally comes forward about the traumatic abuse they endured, people always immediately throw the most torturous part of their life in their face & use the fact that they once defended the person they’re saying r@ped or abused them to try to discredit anything they say as if we don’t all know that women will literally have a black eye from their abusive husband beating them while they swear to the police that their husband has never laid hands on them in their life. But for some reason everyone on vlad just loves acting like victims lying to defend abusers because they still love them is something that only ever happens with non famous people & that anyone claiming they were abused by a celebrity who had defended them in the past has to be lying for
Money. I swear the majority of people on this channel including vlad all act like as if it’s just a proven fact that anyone claiming they were r@ped by a famous black man just HAS to be lying about it because they’re just trying to get money or because they’re part of some illuminati plot to tear down every successful rich black man in Hollywood lmao (which is the same bullshit excuse people used to defend bill Cosby). & it’s such a stupid ass double standard too because I swear I’ve heard sooooo many different people on vlad talk about how women lying to the cops to protect their abusive man from being arrested is a tale as old as time, but then once it comes to actually holding beloved black men celebrities accountable for being abusers or predators then all of a sudden there’s absolutely no way that that same principle we all know is true when it comes to women Being physically abused could also apply to people who say that they were r@ped by a celebrity, & that just because in the past they might’ve defended the person they’re now saying abused them doesn’t meant that they have to just be lying to try to get money now. The double standards just make no fuckin sense it’s such blatantly biased stupid thinking but no one ever calls it out in the comments so that’s why I’m writing this long as message cause I’m so fuckin Tired of the same old bullshit defenses people have of Michael Jackson always going unchallenged by vlad & the other interviewers & also in the comments as well. She might be a walking history lesson but only if you
Mean that in terms of using her bullshitting as a lesson on how much simple, easily disproven lies & double standards are used to defend predators & abusers & help them get away with their crimes & that we cannot continue to allow people to unquestioningly defend celebrities like this
AN ICON AND TRUE LEGEND!!! WE LOVE YOU, ANGIE. 💐 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
I love me some Angie Stone ❤❤❤
💯💯🎯
Angie is beautiful inside and out. She is special.
I only knew her for later stuff and 99. I didn't know idea that she was so accomplished.. diva
Crazy interview. Mad respect to the interviewer for not spontaneously combusting upon being drowned with this avalanche of tea.
The record industry is shaaadeee...
Denzel Washington's son made it without Denzel's name. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's daughter made it without their name. Leave that boy alone. He's on his way.
The Angie Stone interview was very good. But the highlight of this interview was definitely the charismatic son, Swayvo! He's hilarious.
Man!!! I remember Funk You Right On Up!!!
Well, what I can say….is she’s speaking facts on D’Angelo, cuz his last Album was total trash! & he looks like a blimp! & ppl are now saying D’Angelo Who!???? & Angie still Stands!
I will cover the story of SEQUENCE especially madam angie for her highlights. Thank God I came across this video.
I don't remember LL in Beat Street, maybe she meant Krush Groove
That's right...Angie is a LEGIT rap vet. LEGIT. One of the first out the gate commercially.
Always loved Angie Stone she was always very underrated 💯
I knew Ms. Betty was like that. You could tell the kind of person she was from the lyrics of her songs. She was such a national treasure. Many women at the time were jealous of her relationship with D'Angelo. They couldn't picture those two together. I rooted for them though, especially her. Beauty in the eye of the beholder and doesn't only have to be physical, its also a spiritual connection. I'm so glad he done this interview with her. She DESERVES to be held up with the utmost respect for being the QUEEN SHE IS !!!
Nah Big Steppa nice! But him and his sista bet not Neva get it twisted about their parents! Love y'all All tho😘😅
I LOVE YOU Angie Stone, Always Been A Fan I'm Sorry That You Went Through All Of That But You Still SHINE Through I LOVE YOU,I Always Thought You We're BEAUTIFUL, Your Smile,Hair You've Always Been Very Beautiful, I LOVE YOU I Give You Your FLOWERS I Always Love Your Music,Seem Like The Humble Great Get Overlooked, You ARE The Diamond in the Rough
Renee and Angela were good
How can I work with Angie Stone? Somebody get me in a room with her ASAP... it's time to make Magic Again 💥💕🔥 I got chu Queen 👑👠.. I'm God's favorite Poet John📚 Study 🗣️💌
Wow excellent interview… really enjoyed the piece where her son came on. I like that part about naming his project of D&A. Liked his snippet free style. Nice he’s going on tour with his mom
Thank YOU So much Angie Stone for all that you give and gave! The son-uuggh totally disrespectful...could have kept talking with her! Gotta go!!!
Great interview. But I was done when the son said they need to get an updated picture of D'Angelo bc he dont have a six pack anymore. 😂😂😂
Angie Stone Best away from
Clive Davis team . Facts 💯 %
Yeppp what up big boi! 😂 , nawh his pops ain’t got no 6 pack no more!
ANGIE STONE, YOU'RE A QUEEN MS. BEAUTIFUL ❤️ YOU'RE AN INSPIRATION TO MY WHOLE SOUL. KEEP DOING IT...LUV YA ❤️
VIBRANT LUV 💞🇯🇲 THX VLAD....
HAD NO IDEA THAT SHE CAME FROM BACK THEN. So glad this interview came out.
It also is ur health matters. I was small all my life until 2020. But I know why. Covid happened, and we had the lockdown. Until then, I didn't have bicycling. And I tell u ur immune system and everything else suffers w weight. But he found a beautiful wife. It was happy he got the appreciation he deserved. But after the western Jayz produced just seemed to cancel him. Before then, he was the it guy. I just don't know how u can be the series man alive and go basically unnoticed now. But we as black ppl r waiting for this fine brother to come back. I wanted to see him in the Vin Diesel movie so bad. I liked him w Jason Statham action movie. They were trying to get him to be the next Bond, and I think he would have killed it. But he's what, fifty now. Not a chance. But the Bond guy is old and they have him w these very young English actress. But I give him one thing he is handsome. He dresses very debonair. Jason Statham would have made a good bond man to, but he's close to 60 now. But he also dresses sharp. Idris kills it, too.He's much finer than Denzel ever was to me. By her losing all the weight, she looks kind of like unhealthy now.
Sequence was FIRE 🔥 🔥🔥
All these great entertainers have been ripped off it's crazy and sad
Angie I have ALWAYS loved you & DeAngelo & both of your afrocentric presence. I've always asked, "when are they going to come out with something again". I'm sorry to hear about his pride, but imma pray that God will help him see himself & the blessing he's missing. Prayer changes things & I pray that God changes his heart. I LOVE YOU ANGIE❣️
Put some respect on Angie’s name. 👏🏾👏🏾
It’s crazy how she didn’t like her biggest hit. Same as Rick James who hated Superfreak. Said it was one of his throwaway songs which ended up being his biggest hit. Crazy how that turns out.
Wow, she’s really been done wrong 😑
Angie said, 'im not gonna knock out just one tooth. Imma knock them all out '.
Legit Mama right there 💯💯💯💯
Columbia SC in the building 💪🏿
I really wish her son would learn breath control and learn to speak better. Dude can be a major star
I love ❤️ Angie Stone. She's so beautiful person.
