Angela Bofill

Brooklyn native Angela Bofill sang with Ricardo Morrero & the Group and the Dance Theater of Harlem chorus before her 1978 debut. With her strong, distinctive alto, she carved a niche as an outstanding interpreter of soul ballads. Between 1978 and 1984, Bofill had consistent success on the R&B charts, with six albums making the Top 40 (five of which made the Top 100 on the pop charts as well), including two, Angel of the Night (1979) and Too Tough (1983), that made the Top Ten. During this period, she also placed seven singles in the R&B Top 40, with "Too Tough" making the Top Ten. Bofill's career cooled off after 1984, but she returned to the R&B charts with Intuition (1988), I Wanna Love Somebody (1993), and Love in Slow Motion (1996). She took to the stage in the mid-2000s for The Angela Bofill Experience before being temporarily sidelined by a pair of strokes, and was later inducted into the Women Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2023. Bofill died on June 13, 2024 at her daughter's home in Vallejo, California at the age of 70.
