After she left The Supremes, Diana Ross went on to have a fearless career all her own. She made the most of that famously tender voice with her 1970 debut solo single, “Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand),” which radiated pure positivity, while later ballads like “Touch Me in the Morning” confirmed her mastery of sumptuous romance. Then came her surprise turn as an unflappable disco diva on the Diana LP—which included the sample-friendly anthem “I'm Coming Out”—and a smooth transition to jubilant ‘80s pop. Ross still can't be matched for lush balladry; check out how she recasts classics on 2006's I Love You.
