Natalie Cole's debut album was released in 1975 and titled Inseparable. The smash single "This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)" (#1 R&B, #6 Pop) won Natalie Cole a Grammy Award for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Female. Natalie Cole was also named the Grammy's' Best New Artist of 1975. Natalie Cole kept bust through the '80s. In 1987, Natalie Cole released Everlasting, which went on to sell over 2 million copies in the U.S., and won Cole a Soul Train Award for Female Single of the Year for the #1 R&B ballad "I Live for Your Love". This album yielded three major hit singles for Natalie Cole: "Jump Start," "I Live For Your Love" (#2 AC and #13 Pop as well as #1 R&B), and a successful remake of Bruce Springsteen's "Pink Cadillac" (#5 Pop, #16 AC, and #1 Dance). It wasn't until 1991, though, that Natalie Cole would find the biggest success of her career. Her album Unforgettable... with Love, featured Natalie's own arrangements of her father's greatest hits. The album sold over 5 million copies in the United States and won Cole several Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Best Traditional Pop Vocal Performance. The album featured a duet, the title track, with her father, created by splicing a recording of his vocals into the track. As a single, it reached #14 on Billboard Magazine's Hot 100 chart, and went gold. In 2000, Natalie Cole made headlines when she released her autobiography, Angel on my Shoulder, which described her battle with drugs during much of her life. In the book, Cole admitted to using heroin and crack cocaine. Natalie Cole's autobiography was turned into a made-for-TV movie, The Natalie Cole Story, in the winter of 2000. On the winter of 2007, Natalie Cole appeared on an episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, singing "I Say a Little Prayer." Natalie Cole also appeared in rapper Nas' music video for "Can't Forget About You". The song uses a sample of her father's song "Unforgettable". Natalie Cole continues to perform to sell out audiences worldwide. Fan Resource - Natalie Cole: A Living Legend!
