A Think, Curvy, Black Female singer is responsible for making vocal credits mandatory on CDs and music videos!

𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗮 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝗵 - Her success on the Billboard dance chart has earned her the honorific title The Queen of Clubland, with a total of fifteen number-one songs on the charts such as Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody dance now).

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 several successful dance songs without her permission or proper credit. Models lip-synched to her voice in music videos and during live performances, obscuring Wash's contributions and hiding Wash's size as a full-figured woman. She won the case and that's why everyone involved get credit on songs today.
