    Peace, to all of those that appreciated and supported my Auntie Betty Wright. I am Kavayah Wright. My father is Milton Wright, also a musician and songwriter, who did 2 albums in the 70's. His music is on RUclips, as well. I am her nephew, Kavayah Wright and I am releasing a tribute song to her on her Birthday/Bornday, December 21st of 2020. Thank you so much for your kind words concerning my Auntie. She meant the World to me and my family and she is greatly missed!!!

      I loved her so much in the first time I heard the clean up woman I was 11 years old and I've been bumping it ever since and when I got older I understood the words to no pain no gain and to this day to clean a woman is my favorite song in the world along with let's get It on by Marvin Gaye and may Betty rest in peace with her beautiful talented self.
      God bless you and her family and her daughters uncles Aunt siblings Everlast nieces and nephews and

      Who you telling, I'll be 73 years young this year & Betty is still one of my all time favorites along with Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Chaka khan, Patti Labelle, Natalie Cole, Linda Jones, Denise Lasalle, Shirley Brown etc... I'm glad I came from an era when singers could really SANG and music was actually music and not just a bunch of noise these so called singers do today!

  • @rwatchin
    @rwatchin 8 лет назад +65

    Betty Wright is unquestionably a trend setter. Betty came at a time when music had no direction and the next big thing or sound wasn't clear. Betty taking ownership of the vulnerabilities of women was and is sexy. But at the same she lent her voice to express the strength within a woman's sexuality. Betty paved the path for likes of Millie Jackson, Shirley Brown, Madonna, Adina Howard, Salt-N-Peppa, Kelis, Lil' Kim and the list goes on and on and on and on. Facts.

    I was teenager when I first heard clean up woman but this one I wasn’t aware of. But it reminds of walking around in neighborhood especially on holidays in the projects people playing all kinds of soul music. I didn’t know any relatives that were singers. Well if they’re Anything like Mrs Betty Wright they are amazing. She ablibs and breaks it down and step back Mariah Betty’s got the nod. She sings like Gladys middle of road until it’s just a nice groove.. and that band is kicking…LB December 15, 2022.

    this is one of the most wonderful examples of soul music transformed into latin tropical music I've ever heard. It is masterfully performed and developed, not only the transformation but the lyrics that represent love and sensuality in different words during the whole song. People who can't appreciate this, I think they are dead or they are this generation of people who grew up with rap, hip hop, slam, Mexican narco-corridos, some kinds of anti-rock mysic full of negative words and negative messages, which represent all these "styles " the antagonism of music, that is, an absent on real musis
