  • Lady Marmalade”—Labelle (1974) Added to the National Registry: 2020 Essay by Adele Bertei (Guest Post)*
    “Lady Marmalade”—Labelle (1974) Added to the National Registry: 2020 Essay by Adele Bertei (guest post)* Labelle Labelle. Hear the name and most will immediately think of Patti LaBelle, diva supreme, but the story is far more profound than the connection suggests. Over the course of 16 years together, Nona Hendryx, Sarah Dash, and Patti LaBelle created a musical legacy unlike any other group before or since. Patti’s incredible voice led the way, undoubtedly. But it was Sarah Dash’s sweet soaring soprano, the deep resonance of Nona Hendryx’s voice and lyrical imagination, and the utopian vision of manager Vicki Wickham that would ultimately result in the creation of the Labellian cosmology--a map of sonic starlight. In 1962, Patti LaBelle and the Bluebelles were a traditional girl group with a few minor hits. Ten years later, they dropped the girl group tropes and became Labelle, reinventing the role of Black women in popular music as bona fide rock stars in 1974. The torque accelerating their ascendancy was a song called “Lady Marmalade.” Co-written by Bob Crewe and Kenny Nolan, “Lady Marmalade” is the story of a Creole sex worker strutting a solicitation--”Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?”--a phrase that became a French-language primer for every American in love with pop music. Any record company trepidation about presenting this brazen shout-out for Black women’s sexual agency to the listening world was extinguished by the undeniable brilliance of the recording. The song might not have been written by Labelle, but their delivery made it a worldwide sensation.
