Aretha Franklin have made their way to Detroit to view her body as part of a public viewing organised by her friends and family.
Her funeral, which will feature appearances and performances by Jennifer Hudson, Fantasia & Stevie Wonder, will be televised when it takes place on Friday….days after the city of Detroit expects the number of people hoping to see her before she is buried rise in the coming hours.
Aretha is survived by four children.
Your thoughts?
Long live the Queen
Where is Mary J Blige
This is a serious subject and yet the grammar in this article is atrocious ??♂️
Her greatest hits album is rising on the charts. The reason why Aretha is not being remembered or honored as much as MJ, Whitney, or Prince is that her music seems to habe not reached the last two generations. Furthermore, many of her hits were covers so when radio plays the songs it is not always Aretha singing. I think her last hit was in 1998 with a Rose is Still A Rose. I love her music. My favorite song was ‘Do Right Woman, Do Right Man’, ‘Rose In Spanish Harlem’, and ‘Dr. Feelgood’. Those 3 songs really describe my life perfectly because I am a Rose from Spanish Harlem who is a Do Right Woman and my man is a Do Right Man and his nickname is Dr. Feelgood .
Rest In Love ❤. A true Queen, pioneer, the blue print, the original diva supreme. Her music will last for generations to come, the will NEVER be another!! Long live the Queen of Soul!!!
I’m of the mind of not seeing the dead dressed up in the funeral stages and not just remembered for how they were known…??
