I fell that there were many women who impacted the music scene but I am gonna have to go with:

Aretha Franklin
Momma Cass
Janis Joplin

I choose those women, even tho they are repeats, because they did impact the music world with their vocals, attitude, and all around ways of being a woman.

Hello Schecter87!

Of course those women of music deserve extra attention and praise. To repeat a legend's name is not a bad thing, it just shows that they are appreciated by alot more people than just one.
