Whitney Houston was considered for the role of Sondra Huxtable on The Cosby Show in 1984 — but she declined the offer in order to continue singing on tour. Her self-titled debut album the next year topped the Billboard 200 for 14 weeks, and propelled her to super-stardom.

This Bluescentric Brand Down Home Blues t-shirt is available in premium lightweight 4.2oz vintage style sizes up to 4XL. Solid colors are 100% combed, ringspun cotton. Athletic Heather is 90% cotton. All other Heather colors are 52% cotton, 48% poly. Sizes run true. These t shirts are lighter and slightly more fitted compared to the Classic Gildan tees. 

This design features a real label from an authentic Black Swan vinyl record, of Ethel Waters' romping, popular 1921 song "Down Home Blues".

Black Swan Records was nothing if not true to its name. Established in 1921 by Harry Pace, Black Swan was the first major African American-owned record label. Lasting only three short years, Black Swan Records' reign was short -- but oh so sweet. Notable for promoting influential artists like Ethel Waters, the label played a crucial role in shaping the early landscape of Black music... despite its brief existence.
