BIG CYNTHIA

Daddy B. Nice's #58 ranked Southern Soul Artist

Cynthia Walker (Big Cynthia) was born in Houston, Texas, the daughter of Junior Walker, of Junior Walker & The All Stars fame ("What Does It Take To Win Your Love"). She began singing in local clubs as a teenager and became the opening-act artist for Southern Soul headliners, including Johnnie Taylor and Peggy Scott-Adams, who came through town. Avanti Records issued her debut CD, currently unavailable.

In 1997 Ace Records featured two tracks by Cynthia Walker on its highly-regarded sampler, Kings And Queens Of Ace. "I'm Bill's Wife," with the lyric, "Bill goes both ways," capitalized on R&B's early-to-mid-90's fascination with bisexuality, memorialized in most fans' minds by Peggy Scott-Adam's smash hit "Bill." The song gave ample evidence of Walker's blues diva's talents.

"I Should Quit You Baby," from the same compilation, was a straight-blues rant in the style of Chick Willis's "Stoop Down Baby," and a precursor of much of Cynthia's later choice of material.

Meanwhile Big Cynthia, as Cynthia Walker, also worked in the gospel circuit. In 1998 she was a featured vocalist on The Greater Walters of Chicago's gospel CD He Can Do Anything.

Renowned Southern Soul performer Mel Waiters signed Big Cynthia to his Brittney Records label, resulting in the 2002 CD, Ain't Nothing Like A Big Woman. The title track and the song "Freaky With You" in particular received favorable airplay on Stations of the Deep South.

Doing It Big (TMR) appeared in 2005, and the radio single from the CD, "If You Wanna Get It," a duet with up-and-coming vocalist Mr. David (of "Shoo Da Wop"/Sir Charles Jones fame), became an overnight chitlin' circuit favorite. The follow-up, "Eatin' Ain't Cheatin'," was as ribald and R-rated as contemporary chitlin' circuit R&B gets.
