Betty David, boundary-smashing funk singer, has died at age 77.

But by the time sexual liberation on the charts – particularly from a female perspective, much less from a Black female perspective – was beginning to make inroads in the late ’80s and ’90s, Davis had long disappeared from the public eye.

In 1968, she began a relationship with the nearly two decades older Miles Davis that would result in a brief marriage and a name change from Betty Mabry to Betty Davis. The jazz icon tried to help his wife nab a label contract with a few demos they worked on together, but none of the majors were interested.
