She began gospel singing with her mother in the Holloway Community Singers and she has also recorded with Albertina Walker in the Caravans gospel group.
Holloway found moderate disco success where she placed eighteen songs on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts, including four #1s, and was featured on Dan Hartman's disco classic "Vertigo/Relight My Fire".

This was certainly the case with Loleatta Holloway, a classy lady who had been performing and recording for a good number of years, before becoming a "Disco diva" in Salsoul's premier league.
Loleatta toured and recorded with the Caravans for the Savoy subsidiary Gospel and on Scepter's Hob label, before forming her own traveling company, Loleatta Holloway and her Review.
Loleatta's debut single on Gold Mind, "Worn Out Broken Heart", which reached #25 on Billboard's RandB charts in November of '76, was nowhere near the sophisticated Disco her name is so tightly connected with today.

One of the most frequently sampled voices in music, Loleatta Holloway brings sheer gospel power to her work.
Holloway applied that booming voice to the club anthems "Dreamin'," "Hit N Run," and "It's All About The Papers," each featuring a fierce ad-lib where she let loose and vamped her way into history.
Some of her other notable singles are "Catch Me On The Rebound" and a song she did with Salsoul Orchestra, "Runaway." "Only You" was a duet with Bunny Sigler that surprisingly got released as a single, even though it was a slow song; it went to #11.
