    I don't blame Aretha for that and we shouldn't be judged for that child a secret that she had to keep her daddy was a hoe and Aretha was traumatized but God blessed her with his voice and she was great I don't blame her she was a child and that's why God kept her blessed her all these years and you should not judge her either

    As much as i hate speaking ill of the dead, the fact😢 that CLF was alleged to have impregnated a 14 year old in his congregation did great damage to his credibility. Maybe he was the father of AF's child. I don't know, but his conduct made him look guilty. 😮

    I loved Aretha Franklins music. I grew up listening to her . I purchased and still listened to her 'Greatest Hits' . Her dad, the Reverend Franklin, was trash !🗑 Having m*lested a 14-year-old , having a relationship and child .
    I was born in the sixties, and males, not men, have been doing the unthinkable since forever in every race and religion . I kept a sharp eye on my only 2, which happened to be girls . Come to find out, they were messing with the boys, too😢. The Reverend will have to stand accountable for his actions, I'm sure there were more.

    He looks soo much like her father, more than all of the siblings and grandchildren. I believe if you could have sex and impregnate a teenager aretha's age he could do the same to his daughter. Her dad was not what he presented to the world, I believe he was more like Ciley's father from the Color Purple. This may explain why her sister Carolyn didnt like men and preferred women.

"I do not own the rights to any of this music." Adding for those who also loved Ms. Aretha Franklin the Queen of Soul. ruclips.net/video/k33sINjn9o0/видео.htmlsi=tAEcUHPOTMxlA2kC
