I came up in Toronto, and I lived in a Caribbean household where we listened to all different styles of music. Were any of them appealing to you, or were the shifts by design?Ībsolutely by design. The 45-year-old has a new single, “Easy Way,” and she’s working on her sixth album for release in 2020. Queerty talked to Cox about her career ups and downs, her relationship with Whitney Houston, and, of course, her loyal gay fans.įirst of all, you look ridiculously amazing on the cover of your new single “Easy Way.” You actually look better than you did in the ’90s! What is your secret?Īt one point in your career, you seem poised to maybe be a gay icon … or an R&B superstar … or a dance diva, but you never really went completely in either of those directions. Well, the wait for a new full-length Deborah Cox album soon will be over. She scored a string of big hits - including “Sentimental,” “Who Do U Love,” “Nobody’s Supposed to Be Here,” and “We Can’t Be Friends” - before slipping off the pop and R&B charts and under the radar in the early 2000s.Īlthough she’s kept busy performing on stage, paying homage to Houston (her late friend and colleague) on various projects, recording sporadic dance hits, and making occasional Gay Pride appearances, Cox hasn’t released a new record of original material since 2009’s The Promise. In the mid-’90s, Canadian Deborah Cox was arguably the pop and R&B singer most likely to follow in the global-superstar footsteps of Whitney Houston.
