Etta James, Marian Anderson, Gladys Knight
Wrong! Etta James and Gladys Knight are not contraltos; they are mezzo sopranos. Whoever wrote that needs to go back to Music Theory and voice training. I won't comment on Marian because I don't know who she is. As far as a dramatic contralto: Toni Braxton is the only famous dramatic contralto of any type that I can think of from the last few decades. A very famous coloratura contralto is Anita Baker. Contraltos are rare, so I hope you didn't expect a long list.

an Alto That's not entirely accurate. There are actually two female vocal types between tenor (not actually a female voice) and soprano. They are contralto, and mezzo-soprano. This may be splitting hairs a bit, but Alto is not actually a voice type, but is instead a range of notes. The voice type that sings in the alto range is called contralto.
