Roberta Flack's body of work was so legendary she was selected for a star on the Walk of Fame back in '99 -- but good luck finding it on the iconic street!
Ana Martinez from the Hollywood Walk of Fame tells TMZ Roberta never locked in a date for the ceremony -- but now, she's hoping Roberta's family will reach out to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to finally set up a posthumous honor.

We're told the same thing happened with Whitney Houston -- she got the green light for her star, but never locked in a date for the big unveiling.
Roberta was 88 at the time of her death ... capping off an incredible career that took off in the '70s with hits like "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and "Killing Me Softly."
