In celebration of Black Music Appreciation Month, we bring you songstress CeCe Peniston!

With a vocal range that vacillates between “five to seven octaves,” Peniston was the first foreign female entertainer to perform in post-apartheid South Africa. In December 2016, Billboard magazine listed her among the 100 Top Dance Club Artists of All Time (#52). STREAMED LIVE facebook.com/blackpressusa/live and youtube.com/c/blackpressusatv
