Adina Harvey

R&B singer Adina Howard can't understand all the fuss over the racy language in her single, "Freak Like Me," currently No. 2 on the national pop chart. What's the big deal, she asks, about a woman being just as sexually aggressive as male singers have been for years? "What century are they living in?" Howard asks, after telling about two women who confronted her recently, complaining that her lyrics are demeaning. "This is the '90s," she continues.
