Barbra Streisand
The truth I that Barbra Streisand had a mother who was a soprano. She hailed from New York and developed her love for music. Her goal was to make a name for herself in the music industry. The star of Funny Girl has since released 36 studio albums. Apart from this, she has also been awarded ten Grammys and the Lifetime Achievement Award. While her pop songs helped her get international acclaim, she also has a powerful voice that has been called semi-operatic.

Ella Fitzgerald
The “Queen of Jazz Performance” is on our list as well, of course. Ella Fitzgerald made a name for herself as a jazz vocalist. Her most famous work was the collaborations she had with Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington. We can’t help but hum along to “I Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing,” “Cheek to Cheek,” and “Dream a Little Dream of Me.” It would be futile to doubt her talents. We will just let her Presidential Medal of Freedom and National Medal of Arts do all the talking for her.
