To the world, Whitney Houston was an icon, but to Aretha Franklin she was her God-Daughter.
As such, it was inevitable that the Queen of Soul would pay musical homage to Houston, who tragically passed away last Saturday (February 11th).
Check out Franklin’s emotional tribute to the star she has guided since childhood at a private concert in Charlotte, North Carolina last night…
A truly spirited performance; one we wish was given under happier circumstances.

That was absolutelt heartbreaking at the beginning when everybody started to clap to honour Whitney Elizabeth Houston. I´m so sad. The pain doesn´t go
My God! It’s just seems so unreal!! I mean out of thin Air she left us, and her voice, music, presence, and spirit will always live with us!! This is such a tragedy, such a misfortune situation that took place, but know she is in the arms of the Lord! Man Aretha sang that thang, my God!!!
I love Aretha and Whitney. Both so great.
