Ms. Melodie

Ms. Melodie

Ms. Melodie has been played on NTS shows including Sevdaliza, with Anti-Ho first played on 7 November 2014.

Ms. Melodie (real name Ramona Parker, born in Flatbush, Brooklyn) was a emcee married to KRS-One in 1988, and was associated with his group Boogie Down Productions until the couple's divorce in 1992.

Her first release was the 1988 12-inch single "Hype According to Ms. Melodie", which, like most of her records, was produced by KRS-One. While they began recording her debut album, Ms. Melodie and the rest of BDP appeared in the Keenen Ivory Wayans film I'm Gonna Git You Sucka. Her only album, Diva, would be released the following year by Jive/RCA Records and was largely produced by KRS-One, with contributions from Sam Sever and the Awesome 2's DJ Teddy Tedd. The single "Wake Up, Wake Up" reached the top-20 of the Billboard Hot Rap Singles chart; the music video to its follow-up single "Live on Stage" was a hit on video stations. Melodie is also the older sister of fellow former BDP member Harmony. Melodie has not been heard from since.
