Yazz

Her biggest selling single was a cover of Otis Clay's 1980 song "The Only Way Is Up", which in the summer of 1988 spent 5 weeks at the top of the UK singles chart and ultimately became the 2nd biggest selling UK single of the year.

There was this huge picture of me in the press. They had overdeveloped one photo and underdeveloped the other so I looked really dark skinned and really white. They said 'Yazz goes Daz'. 'Yazz is using chemicals to whiten her skin, it's another Michael Jackson'. That was wounding. From there I didn't trust anyone in the media. There were constant lies to sell the paper.
