Closing out March and #WomensHistoryMonth
Jody Watley Makes History with SPUR Magazine Cover 1989 Grammy-winning artist and style icon Jody Watley made history as the first Black woman and artist to grace the cover of Japan’s SPUR Fashion Magazine for its launch issue.
More than just a cover moment, this achievement was part of a national campaign featuring billboards and a television commercial, solidifying her influence not only in music but also in global fashion and culture.
Watley’s groundbreaking presence in high fashion and mainstream media was a testament to her trendsetting style, individuality, and international appeal—long before diversity became a major conversation in the industry.
This achievement came during promotion for her second solo album “Larger Than Life” which featured smash hit singles, “Real Love”, “Friends” ft. Eric B. & Rakim and the ballad “Everything”.
Her influence remains undeniable, from music to fashion and beyond as the next generation of superstars continue to take music, fashion, global presence and branding to higher heights. #JodyWatley #StyleIcon #FashionHistory #Trailblazer #popmusic #rnb #dancemusic #fashionmagazine #japan
