Montgomery, Alabama — Grammy-nominated R&B singer and songwriter Angie Stone has died at the age of 63 following a fatal car crash early Saturday morning, according to US media reports.
Stone had just completed a performance in Montgomery, Alabama, when the accident occurred as she was traveling home. Details surrounding the crash remain unclear.
Born Angela Laverne Brown, Stone first gained recognition in the late 1970s as a member of the pioneering hip-hop trio The Sequence, known for hits like Funk You Up and Funky Sound. She later became a defining voice in neo-soul, rising to fame in the late 1990s and early 2000s with timeless tracks such as No More Rain (In This Cloud), Wish I Didn’t Miss You, and Brotha.
Throughout her career, Stone was celebrated for her rich, soulful voice and her contributions to R&B, hip-hop, and neo-soul. Her influence spanned generations, inspiring both fans and fellow musicians.
Tributes have begun pouring in from across the music industry as fans mourn the loss of a legend whose artistry left an indelible mark on the world.
