She’s a talented singer and dancer, most widely recognized for her role as a backing vocalist for the legendary MC Hammer. It was actually Hammer himself who gave her the stage name B Angie B—a name she would later simplify by dropping the first “B.” Born Angela Roxanna Boyd, she spent her early years in the quiet, close-knit community of Morton, Mississippi, where her love for music first took root. As a young girl, she found her voice singing in the local church, a humble beginning that foreshadowed her future in the spotlight. Over time, B Angie B carved out her own identity in the entertainment world, balancing her artistry with personal milestones—including a brief but notable relationship with Mike Tyson during the 1980s. Her journey from a small-town church choir to sharing stages with hip-hop icons is a testament to her talent and perseverance. And throughout it all, the name B Angie B—though evolved—has remained a key part of her story.
