In case today's dime-a-dozen "divas" aren't hitting your music fix: The fabulous Ms. Nona Hendryx performed at Damrosch Park in New York City's Lincoln Center. Noan performed a brilliant acoustic set including "Transformation" and a Labelle medley. Nona still has it and performed near Albany the week before.
Hendryx is best known as one-third of the iconic group Labelle. In 2008, Hendryx, Sarah Dash and Patti LaBelle reunited for Back to Now, the first new studio album in more than 30 years from the group. The ladies performed at the OUT 100 Awards that year and brought down the house. In related news: Patti LaBelle will join the cast of the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Fela! in September.
Too bad she didn't perform "Do What You Wanna Do." Now THAT would be ferosh. Watch the fabulous Miss Nona Hendryx WHEN YOU JUMP ...
Nona is the TRUTH. I saw Labelle in Atlanta last year, and she stood UP on the kick drum and started kicked the cymbals for the band's drummer ... LMAO! She is so bad. I love her.

...serve that delicious booty then Nona girl...! Notoriously underated and underappreciated but also strong, unbelated, and never to be duplicated. Thankfully, real recognizes real....
