Don’t feel sorry for Angela Bofill. That is the message you get in the July 2 episode of TV One’s new season of “Unsung.” The statuesque New York-born Latina diva is credited as one of the singers who created the Quiet Storm movement.

Though the stroke has affected her speech, walk and voice, Bofill laughs heartily recounting her past as a singer and songwriter as well as the joy she finds in her life now.
