Diana Ross: The Quintessential Queen of Pop
Early Life and Rise to Stardom
Born on March 26, 1944, in Detroit, Michigan, Diana Ernestine Earle Ross emerged as a prominent figure in the world of music, earning recognition not only for her solo career but also for her pivotal role as the lead singer of the Supremes. Growing up in the Brewster-Douglass Housing Projects, Ross found solace and inspiration in music, eventually forming a group with friends Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard, known as The Primettes.
The trio’s journey began with Motown Records in 1961, and after a series of name changes, they became the Supremes in 1962. The Supremes quickly became Motown’s most successful act, with Ross at the forefront, showcasing her exceptional vocal prowess and stage presence.

- “The Supremes A’ Go-Go” (1966)
- A landmark achievement for the Supremes, this album made history by becoming the first by an all-female group to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. The infectious energy of tracks like “You Can’t Hurry Love” resonated with audiences worldwide.
