Martha Elaine Wash is an American singer-songwriter, actress, and producer. Known for her distinctive and powerful voice, Wash first achieved fame as half of the Two Tons O’ Fun, who sang backing vocals for the disco singer Sylvester including on his signature hit “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)“. After gaining their own record deal, they released three consecutive commercially successful songs which all peaked at number two in the dance charts. The duo was renamed The Weather Girls in 1982 after they released the top-selling single “It’s Raining Men“, which brought them to mainstream pop attention. The Weather Girls released five albums and were heavily featured on Sylvester’s albums.
After disbanding in 1988, Wash transitioned to house music as a featured artist on several successful songs. Her success on Billboard’s Dance chart has earned her the honorific title The Queen of Clubland, with a total of fifteen number-one songs on the chart to date.
Wash is also noted for sparking legislation in the early 1990s that made vocal credits mandatory on CDs and music videos. Starting in the late-1980s, her studio vocals were used in numerous successful dance songs without her permission. Models lip-synced to her voice both in music videos and during live performances. As a result, Wash’s identity was unknown and she was denied credit and royalties for many of the songs she recorded. This included platinum-selling song “Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)“ as she had been labeled “unmarketable“ due to her weight. Subsequently, in Rolling Stone, music critic Jason Newman described Martha Wash as “The Most Famous Unknown Singer of the ’90s“. In December 2016, Billboard magazine ranked her as the 58th most successful dance artist of all time.

Todd Terry was influential in moving House music beyond the early Chicago house sound of 1984–86. He crossed the sounds of House with hip hop breaks to create a more energized and popular sound that was able to reach commercial success outside the underground House scene. His productions extensively used samples that blend the sounds of classic disco, the Chicago house sound, and elements of hip-hop.
Terry began his career in the 1980s, DJing at parties in New York. At first, he played Italo disco and hip-hop. Later he concentrated on House music upon its mid’80s emergence. He debuted as Masters at Work with the 12-inch “Alright Alright“ (1987, Fourth Floor)[3] and an edit from this was then included on the Chicago house vanguard compilation Jackmaster 1 (1987, D.J. International/Westside UK).
Much of Terry’s early work in the late 1980s is considered a milestone in the development of house and rave music. He was responsible for releasing two of the house era’s most respected crossover remixes: “I’ll House You“ by the Jungle Brothers (Summer 1988) and “Missing“ by Everything but the Girl as a re-release in October 1995. His music was a driving force within the “acid house“ scene in the UK with many tracks such as “Back to the Beat“, “Can You Party“, “A Day in the Life“, “Weekend“, “Party People“, “Yeah, Buddy“ and “Dreams of Santa-Anna“, released under multiple aliases including The Todd Terry Project, Royal House, Black Riot, Swan Lake and Orange Lemon. In the summer of 1988 at the peak of the UK acid house movement, “Can You Party“ under his Royal House moniker reached No. 14 in the UK.
Terry’s notable releases during the 1990s include “Something Goin’ On“ and “Keep on Jumpin’“, which were UK top-ten hits, with the vocals on both provided by Jocelyn Brown and Martha Wash.
