Crystal Waters is the GOAT of house music, and she’s still setting the bar high. You know her from bangers like “Gypsy Woman (She’s Homeless)” and “100% Pure Love”—tracks that continue to slap even after all these years. She’s got over 3 million monthly listeners on Spotify; her songs are timeless vibes. But before dominating the dance floors, Crystal grew up in Philly, soaking in a musical heritage that includes her great aunt, Ethel Waters, a legendary figure in jazz and theater. Music? It’s in her DNA.
Crystal hit the big time in the early 90s with “Gypsy Woman (She’s Homeless),” which blew up globally thanks to that catchy “La Da Dee, La Da Da” hook. It reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and climbed even higher in Europe, landing at #2 in the UK. The song’s real-life inspiration came from a woman she often saw in her city—a reminder that the best tracks sometimes have the simplest beginnings. She followed up with “100% Pure Love,” which hung on the charts for 45 weeks, one of the longest-charting singles on the Hot 100. Talk about a flex!
Fast forward to today, and Crystal is far from being a throwback queen. She’s still dropping fire tracks and collaborating with top names like DJ Antoine, Alex Gaudino, and Hifi Sean. You’ve probably heard her latest drops on Beatport, where she continues to dominate the house charts. From “I Am House” to “Le Bump” with Yolanda Be Cool, she’s snagged top spots repeatedly, racking up 12 No. 1 singles on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. She’s still got that zest!
Beyond the beats, Crystal is a strong advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and champions more representation of women in the music scene. That’s a big reason why she started her radio and podcast show, “I Am House.” It’s not just about playing tracks; she’s all about spotlighting vocal house and giving emerging female artists their shine. Want the latest scoop on vocal house? Tune into her show.
Crystal’s got a signature style that mixes house, pop, and a touch of jazz that sets her apart. Her visuals are on point too; she’s a talented artist who often includes her own art in album covers and stage designs. It’s just another way she keeps her brand snatched and her fans vibing.
Looking forward, Crystal’s not slowing down. She’s plotting new collabs, laying down fresh beats, and keeping house music alive and kicking. Whether she’s on stage, in the studio, or on her podcast, Crystal Waters is all about the vibes. Don’t miss out—catch her on Radio Marbella and let her take you on a ride through the lit sounds of house music. Crystal Waters isn’t just a name; she’s the CEO of keeping the dance floor alive.
