Roxanne Shante
Remember Roxanne Shante? Proper old skool b-girl. 'Have a nice day' was permanently in the 7" pocket of my record bag. Back then she was only a 15 year old single mother from Queens, so a record label offered her an education as part of her contract. Well she not only took them up on the offer - she milked them for every penny, and now she's a Doctor of psychology. Excellent!
Have a nice day
