It was simple for Phyllis. The black community helped put her on the map, so she hired the people who put her there. Credit: Ebony/Jet Showcase 1987 | Phyllis Hyman

Phyllis's entree into the world of radio began with her long-standing friendship with Maye Hampton James-Holler, who took Phyllis's 1976 song, "Baby", to radio. Maye was the VP of promotions at Desert Moon/Roadshow Records - the first label to sign Phyllis. Sadly, Maye passed away earlier this month. Thank you, Maye, for all you did for Phyllis. Sweet rest. 💐 Phyllis's photo is a promotional picture from Roadshow Records. Maye's photo credit the Legacy website. | Phyllis Hyman

This interview aired on Dec 30, 1986. It was the Living All Alone era, and a new beginning for Phyllis. Although she had been dealt some career blows, she pressed forward and found a way to make a living. If only that one-woman show had come to fruition. Video credit: K. Ford | Phyllis Hyman

To be called "Brother" or "Sister" in the 70s was met with some resistance and fear. People felt it insulted their intelligence and was overly used. Some even believed it was a way to get them to lower their guard and be robbed or something worse. The quote in the photo is what Phyllis said when asked how she felt being called "Sister." It was all love and good vibes to her. Quote - NY Amsterdam News, Apr 10, 1976 🎶Deliver The Love | Phyllis Hyman
