Book excerpt: the autobiography of Dawn Silva former singer with Sly and the Family Stone, Parliament-Funkadelic, The Brides of Funkenstein, Gap Band, and a solo artist as well.In a world that strives for success, why would a management company deliberately sabotage its female recording artists? Especially after they were winning back-to-back music awards, with chart- topping records and had a trademark sound that sold millions.Long before the 2018 #Me Too Movement, there was the story of a rebellious American female recording artist who escaped and survived an era of subjugated institutions, misogyny, physical and mental abuse, beating the odds and recapturing a worldwide underground cult following.This true story is no longer Funk's Best Kept Secret. It is a story of survival and persistence, a tale of a courageous woman who stood against the male-dominated music industry and never backed down; no matter how often she was knocked down, and each time, she would rise stronger and better than before.
