Angie Stone dies at 63. The Grammy-nominated singer was killed in a rollover crash.

Angie Stone dies at 63. The Grammy-nominated singer was killed in a rollover crash. R&B singer Angie Stone died in a car crash early Saturday. She was 63. Stone was traveling with members of her band from Mobile, Alabama to Atlanta when their van collided with a semi-truck on Interstate 65 about five miles south of Montgomery, according to police and her label. The Mercedes Benz Sprinter flipped over on the road before it collided with the truck, Lt. Jeremy Burkett of the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency told USA TODAY. Stone, who was a passenger in the van, was declared dead at the scene. Eight other passengers of the van were injured and transported to hospitals for treatment, Burkett said. The Grammy-nominated singer rose to prominence in the 1970s as a member of female rap group The Sequence before a solo career that produced hits like "Wish I Didn't Miss You." She was also a member of the R&B trio Vertical Hold. "Never in a million years did we ever expect to get this horrible news. Our mom is and will always be our everything. We are still trying to process and are completely heartbroken," Stone's children, Diamond Stone and Michael Archer, said in a statement delivered by her label, the SRG-ILS Group. Stone had performed at a Mardi Gras event in Mobile, Alabama on Friday night, the Mobile-Area Mardi Gras Association said on Facebook. "Angie's performance at the 2025 Grand Marshal's Ball was nothing short of phenomenal," the group said in a post. "We were truly saddened to hear of Angie's passing and our hearts go out to you all." Fans and admirers posted tributes to X, the social media platform previously known as Twitter, noting her songs "Brotha," an appreciation of Black men, and the theme for the TV show "Girlfriends." While with The Sequence, Stone took part in producing "Monster Jam," a hit song that "helped define early Southern rap," wrote Ebony Magazine. "A three-time Grammy nominee, Stone collaborated with music legends like D'Angelo, Prince, and Macy Gray, while also showcasing her acting talents in The Hot Chick and Chicago on Broadway," Ebony continued. "Her contributions to R&B, soul, and hip hop will continue to inspire," Ebony added. This is a developing story.
