The Emotions

The Emotions are an American R&B and soul vocal group from Chicago, formed in 1968 and organized around a sister trio. Rooted in gospel, their music is marked by close, expressive harmonies and strong lead vocals, and over the 1970s they incorporated funk and dance-oriented soul elements into their arrangements, making them a notable presence in that era's soul and R&B landscape.
