The great Aretha Franklin was exposed to far too much as a child. It's very TROUBLING. Nonetheless, Aretha Franklin will ALWAYS be the Queen of Soul and Shade. 👑😔🙏🏾❤️🕊️
Yes, the dark, complex trauma that she experienced could have dimmed her work and purpose, yet her light still shown through and blessed a Nation...a pillar of strength!
Baby when i tell you her song "A rose is still a rose" is also my favorite song from her!!! Well it's actually the only song i listen to from her, thanks to my mom. I was 11 years old crying to this song!! I was a short chocolate fat girl with a Jerri Curl! The one boy that i liked only liked me for my snacks. While my brothers were playing with Pokemon cards, I was in the living room with my momma, in my feelings listening to this.
Wild. It's horrifying to think that people who claim to be Christians were passing young girls around at parties. I had no idea that Aretha had such a difficult life.
Mother Theresa procured victims from orphanages fir the Vatican. Religious people are no different than Hollywood when it comes to perversion. Only those who truly serve God would never involve themselves in such disgusting behavior.
I still remember the surprise when Parvrotti could not perform on a TV special program and Aretha stepped up to sing Nessum Dorma, she was so excellent and the audience went wild! It was truly a fantastic performance!🎉
Aretha Franklin is one of those Sangers that i just can't choose one of her songs. There's just too many of them that are top songs. RIPP ARETHA FRANKLIN..... sincerely you are greatly missed.
So sad about the rampant abuse of kids and all the things that happens in families + even in the church. Thank you for your great bios - you always do a wonderful presentation. My favorite song is « Deeper Love » because I could dance to it in the 90’s 😄 🎶
She sang her soul off in "It Hurts So Bad" from the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack. I still cry when I hear it because her pain was so evident as she bellowed about losing love. There is no other. 💎
Why does it hurt so bad, why do I feel so sad? I thought I was over you, but I keep crying when I don't love you... That's my shish🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ just sayn
OH, YES MS. REE REE!! I HAD THE PRIVILEDGE OF SINGING BACKGROUNDS ON 2 OF HER SONGS ON THE "A ROSE IS STILL A ROSE" ALBUM- "IN THE MORNING" AND "IN CASE YOU FORGOT." I'M FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR THAT OPPORTUNITY!! RIH MAMA...🙏🏽💝😇🕊
"I love Wal-Mart, and not just because my record is there. You can get some things there that you cannot find at Saks or Bergdorf's or other upscale stores." . . . ~ Aretha Franklin
@@thankthelord4536 That's what I was gonna do too, so many great songs from the sister. But "Giving him something he can feel" oh, what a song, thanks Aretha, RIP.
Hey karine i forgot mention i was wondering can you talk about how people treat you Differently after weigth loss. When your overweight people treat you like your invisible but when you lose the weigth you become visible to society/people. It's a Night and Day experience you really find out how shallow our society can be sometimes. We should not be this shallow but we are sadly.
@@yonnasteeleofficialthose fake friends left you because they preferred the low self-esteem version of you. Now that you’ve lost weight and look better they are intimidated. People can be so selfish and insecure so they hate on others.
“I don’t know what that was. She was in the background.” 😂😂😂😂 Rere wasn’t shyt for that. She has so many hits that I love. However The Sparkle soundtrack. I really wish they had paid the girls to record bcuz as great as Aretha was. They did it better.
I was on my way to bed when this notification came in, lol Can't wait to watch. My favorite song by Aretha my goodness too many to name Karine. Let me see Search On, Angel, Sparkle, Ain't No Way, One Step Ahead, Bridge Over Troubled Water and Jimmie Lee❤ May she R.I.P🕊
I have the utmost respect for Aretha she was a "Sanger Sanger" young to her end. My fav are: Until you come back to me, Jump (Sparkle), Jump To It (Luther on backgrounds), Rose is still a Rose, her version of Amazing Grace get the sheet and smelling salt, her voice can NEVER be matched. Who steps in for the most reverent opera singer and slays. Yet sometimes I just wonder would it any different if those with deep rooted trauma such as Aretha, Marvin, MJ, Whitney so many others were healed. What she experienced... this why parents need to healed from there own trauma and vises. Even though I don't completely blame them, because she did have destructive ways. Yet she will always be a the Queen
Karine can I just tell you how much I appreciate you and your videos. I even watched a few videos with my grandmother since she grew up in those times as a child and teenager. These videos are nostalgic for her and gives us a chance to bond. Thank you Karine.
She motivates me to speak my mind and be unapologetic ! & I feel She was doing Gods work with her song “A rose is still a rose” I just play that whenever I need to reaffirm myself. They don’t make ‘em like Aretha no more ❤😢
She definitely had a God given vocal talent. A prescher i knew once said that God gave these wonderful voices to people, and that rightfully the voices were meant to be used to worship HIm and to draw people to Him. Look at the huge number of singers who were raised in church and began singing there, then once discovered, they turn to music that is anything but Godly.
Flowers for Aretha! Very troubled life...her Dad was a trip and thats unfortunate smh. I'd like to see Luther Vandross get his flowers. I hear he was a bit of a Diva himself and had a long standing fued with Anita Baker. That would be a good one to cover Karine 😀
I have many, many ,many, you guys get it, MANY, favorite Aretha songs 😂. -jump to it (most fav) -day dreaming -I'm in love (sprung movie) -recently learned I love who's zoomin who after I finally listened to the whole thing on the radio -why does it hurt so bad (hurts like hell/waiting to exhale soundtrack -call me -don't play that song, ain't no way, etc 😂❤
Hey karine can we get a vidoe for Fantasia Barrino. She is the woman who won America idol. She is having a a great year and she has been looking fantastic aswell.
Her first major album was recorded here in Muscle Shoals,Al. Her musicians were our friends aka “The Swampers” Excellent documentary “Muscle Shoals Documentary” Independent Lens film tells her story.
@@AishaRaison it’s amazing how many songs from the soundtrack of my life came out of there. My favorites from Fame are probably Wilson Pickett’s cover of Hey Jude with Duane Allman When a Man Loves a Woman. And from 3614 aka Muscle Shoals Sound, Wild Horses, Take a Letter Maria, I’ll Take You There. I misspoke earlier, AF recorded “I’ve Never Loved a Man” in MS and she took the Swampers with her to complete the album in NY. I’m glad y’all got to visit. Thanks so much for sharing.
My favorite songs are "Jimmy Lee" and "I Knew You Were Waiting for Me" with George Michael. I also like a deep cut called "United Together". The air conditioner demand wasn't diva behavior tho. Singers shouldn't be sing in the cold. Those vocal cords was Aretha's bread and butter. She made sure she protected them.
My favorite Aretha Franklin songs, Ain't No Way" Mary Don't You Weep" I Never Loved A Man, Like I Love You" It Hurts Like Hell" (Waiting To Exhale soundtrack) My number one favorite... A Rose Is Still A Rose"
Running out of time is my favorite song of hers it reminds me so much of my mom who recently passed. She also loved that song and sang it for me when I was young.
Great video Karine! Please showsome love to more male singers like Tito Puente( one of my dad's favorites) and Nat King Cole( one of my mother's favorite). Thank you my caribbean friend! I rep 🇭🇳 Honduras and 🇧🇿 Belize!
Aretha Franklin she was an icon in the R&B she gained the title the queen of soul because of her singing.She had an amazing vocals she collaborate with other various artists such as George Michael,Prince, Lauren Hill, Michael McDonald.She was a devoted mother of her two sons.She will be missed sleep peacefully in heaven.
Years later I love these type videos! Karine you never disappoint with what you promise to tell us, no clickbait titles ever and always informative about so many icons. Thank you!
0:58 I'm 17 years old so the only Aretha Franklin song that I know of is who's zoomin who but these vocals however just WOKE something in me. I need to dive into her discography, oh my...?
Karine, I absolutely adore you and love how you are creating content in your passionate purpose! I came across your first video, around 2020 maybe when you were sitting outside in a park environment with trees, I believe, creating content. I seriously thought about posting this response before doing so, however the rabbit hole goes sooo deep your head would spin. Aretha's mother was planning on taking her away from her father's custody and was mysteriously unalived under different circumstances and it was masked as a heart attack, while I am only three minutes into your video it's public knowledge that not only had her father consistently molested her--but the first child she gave birth to is his --- Adrianna--NYC
Though I have many songs by Aretha Franklin that I love, there are two that stand out as my favorites. Hearing " Gotta find me an Angel" and her remake of Dionne Warwick's "Answer my Prayer" to this day stop me from doing whatever it is I might be doing until the song is done. R.I.P, Ms. Franklin❤💔💐
Oh my Lord!!! There are waaaaayyyyyyy too many!!!!! But, one that always touch my heart CALL ME!!!!! I love this song!! I fell in love with her voice as a very young child!!!! Her voice is truly anointed!!! I have never in my life, even today, heard anyone that sings perfectly, like she does, she got that je ne c’est quoi!!!! Amazing beautiful voice with”swagger” I can’t describe it!! Her voice is everything!!!!! That is beautiful, wonderful, awesome and amazing!!! Need I say more!!!!! Rest in peace, power and paradise, Queen of all voices!!! Queen of Soul!!! Mz. Aretha Franklin!!! There will never be anyone that can touch her voice!!! Ever!!!!
Aretha's homegoing was a week long celebration at various venues across the city that culminated at Greater Grace Temple. She was truly honored, a motorcade of pink Cadillacs, outfit changes, magnificent floral arrangements, etc. It was truly spectacular.
Chile yes, check that one out on Ashley say so. Your face will be like😮😯🧐🤔🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️. She was a hot mess honey. Rude to her fans as well as the people she work with. Very sexual. She was also at Diddy freak off parties. Just seen a video last night where this guy talked about how touchy touchy she was with him when he was younger. Chile check it out for yourself.
I’m in my 40s and grew up listening to Aretha because my mother was a huge fan. What a lot of younger people don’t realize is that there was a silent feud between Aretha, Patti Labelle, Dionne Warwick and Gladys Knight. It was never all shade from Aretha, they all gave as good as they got. There was shade from all sides. It was a time, lol. My favorite song by Aretha is “Ain’t No Way” ❤
Until You Come Back To Me, I Say A Little Prayer, Do Right Woman, Do Right Man, Ain’t No Way, Daydreaming…so many amazing songs from the Queen of Soul! ❤️
The queen of soul. A legend, an icon, a very beautiful , gifted & talented woman. Some favorite songs: Natural woman, respect, say a little prayer, a rose is still a rose & i knew you were waiting for me with George Michael. Rest in perfect peace Miss Aretha Franklin. You were the best. 🎉 🌹 💐 🌸 ♥ 🙏.
Her son at 12 has a severe mental disorder so he could be inbred. But I also heard Aretha’s father is not her biological father and that’s why he had no issue abusing her. Either way she should have never had to go through this.😢
I think that conversation would be well received on your metal gems channel thank u for taking my request. Being treated differently after weigth loss it's sad but also eye opening experience. Btw it's called Weigth Bais. They what people where experiencing when they were overweight.
Happy birthday to you love!! Don’t stop praying and ask God for your hearts desires. He will give it to you because you are worthy and you deserve all the greatness and happiness in this world!! Today is my sister’s bday too!! Love you both!!! Don’t stop being beautiful and great!! 🎊🫶🏾🎊🙏🎉🎈🥰🎁☀️🎂
I grew up with this lady’s beautiful voice in my life. “Til You Come Back To Me” and “Daydreamin” are my favorites till this day. Great job as usual ❤❤❤.
That coat at 4:05 is beautiful. Its a travesty the way fashion has went a bit too casual & masculine. Aye there's still beautifully feminine pieces about but they're getting fewer & farther between. Aretha was a divinely talented woman & she could wear some stunning gowns etc ❤
My mother always played Ms.Aretha's songs. Her voice amazing one of a kind and I love her ' get back lines. She would get you. I think she such a beautiful woman. She talked about being in love with Sam cooke until her death. Aunt Ree Ree. R.I.P.

LISTEN TO AIN'T NO WAY BY ARETHA FRANKLIN
How one was raised in childhood is so so important. So sad.
Wild. It's horrifying to think that people who claim to be Christians were passing young girls around at parties. I had no idea that Aretha had such a difficult life.

undisputed queen of soul.

I love that song.
Hard to believe pedophilia was/is ever looked at as acceptable 😒
It's “mentioned” in the bible and till this day people use that defense
OVERLOOKED at the HIGHEST LEVEL. And So many Mothers INTENTIONALLY turn their backs on it. Shit is deeper than deep.😔
And they have the nerve to call the victim fast for being abused…disgusting
@danix4897 it's mentioned but NEVER condoned by Jesus.
@@loveVanity6man this angle INFURIATES!!!!!! me blaming the child is disgusting
“Do right woman, do right man” ~ My favorite 😍
Mines too.
Ain't no way, is my favorite song.
All of them! Gotta be honest.
SAY MANE THE CATTY SHID WITH OTHER OBVIOUSLY TALENTED PEOPLE IS CORNY ....
So sad about the rampant abuse of kids and all the things that happens in families + even in the church. Thank you for your great bios - you always do a wonderful presentation. My favorite song is « Deeper Love » because I could dance to it in the 90’s 😄 🎶
The Queen of Soul. Love all of her songs, but, I think “I Say a Little Prayer for You” is one of my favorites.🌷🌷🌷
The Queen of SOUL, no questions asked..💯🎶❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
RIGHT! she has so many songs, and her voice was powerful
Indeed, she is one of my favorite Artist..
She sang her soul off in "It Hurts So Bad" from the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack. I still cry when I hear it because her pain was so evident as she bellowed about losing love. There is no other. 💎
@jazzymoni7750 Whitney sang why does it hurt so bad. Aretha sang It hurts like hell.
Why does it hurt so bad, why do I feel so sad? I thought I was over you, but I keep crying when I don't love you... That's my shish🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ just sayn
@@epiphanyzcrush9576 You are right!! I meant "It Hurts Like Hell." Thanks for correcting ☺
This woman fit into every decade like a tailored suit. Changing tastes be damned, because Aretha was always good taste!
crazy her father was never investigated and arrested for abusing kids
CAUSE HE LEFT TOWN IN THE MIST BEFORE HE HAD TO FACE THE TRAIL. HE RAN
60s to early 90s people got away with far more than even today.
@@somniumisdreaming They surely did, unfortunately! Smh 🤦♀️
It was rare someone was investigated at that time. I told on the boy that assaulted me in 1971 when I was 8. I was laughed at.
@@KarenSutherland-yv4kv Im so sorry you went thru that. My family didn't believe me when I told them! Smdh
Aretha was skinny when she was younger, that emotional eating is a beast. She was very pretty
Yass
Ms Aretha Franklins song called Ain't No Way is my all time favorite song she made! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊
Yeah Ms Franklin was straight forward but her delivery was SWEET..❤😂
💐💐💐💐💐
OH, YES MS. REE REE!!

Aretha is in a class of her own. Her talent was legendary. I Never Loved a Man the Way That I Love You is my very fave.
My favorite was: Until you come back to me (That's what I gonna do). Love this melody & words.

I misspoke earlier, AF recorded “I’ve Never Loved a Man” in MS and she took the Swampers with her to complete the album in NY. I’m glad y’all got to visit. Thanks so much for sharing.

What a lot of younger people don’t realize is that there was a silent feud between Aretha, Patti Labelle, Dionne Warwick and Gladys Knight. It was never all shade from Aretha, they all gave as good as they got. There was shade from all sides. It was a time, lol.
My favorite song by Aretha is “Ain’t No Way” ❤
Bridge over troubled water, day dreaming, I say a little prayer !! I can’t choose!
Love Love Aretha Franklin ❤❤❤❤🎉💐🌹👍‼️ Natural Woman is my favorite song by her‼️
her and mariah carey being the shadiest aries 😭😭
YESSS
Explains her competitiveness.
Chile yes. Those two are a force to be reckon with. When you've been traumatized it can make you or break you. Hurt people hurt people 💔😭😢
Aries gang but I’m not to shady
@@zsmith7590yes they both are hurt women it was disgraceful how they abused others because they were abused
Until You Come Back To Me,
I Say A Little Prayer, Do Right Woman, Do Right Man, Ain’t No Way, Daydreaming…so many amazing songs from the Queen of Soul! ❤️
I love so many songs by her but a lil prayer makes me happy makes my hear smile and just brings my mood up by 1000
Aretha was so-FINE-when she was younger,light-brown,sweet and oh,my-LORD. LOL.
Marilyn Monroe’s curves had nothing on Aretha’s 😂❤
She inherited her mother’s looks…with her father’s darker complexion. She was a lovely woman indeed.
Rock steady, Ain’t no way, Bridge over troubled water
Aretha is one of my favorite singers, along with Tina Turner and Gladys Knight. Hard to pick just one song by her.
She IS STILL the BLUE PRINT for female vocalists across genres. ALL HAIL THE QUEEN 👑🕊
The queen of soul. A legend, an icon, a very beautiful , gifted & talented woman. Some favorite songs: Natural woman, respect, say a little prayer, a rose is still a rose & i knew you were waiting for me with George Michael. Rest in perfect peace Miss Aretha Franklin. You were the best. 🎉 🌹 💐 🌸 ♥ 🙏.
The Queen 👸🏾
PLEASE HEAVENLY FATHER HELP YOUR PRECIOUS PEOPLE! HALLELUYAH GLORY HALLELUYAH!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us awesome content 👍
Her son at 12 has a severe mental disorder so he could be inbred. But I also heard Aretha’s father is not her biological father and that’s why he had no issue abusing her. Either way she should have never had to go through this.😢
Really, I have never heard that before. Where did you read this about her father?

I think that conversation would be well received on your metal gems channel thank u for taking my request. Being treated differently after weigth loss it's sad but also eye opening experience. Btw it's called Weigth Bais. They what people where experiencing when they were overweight.
One of my youtubed playlist is dedicated to Aretha Franklin. Nothing but Aretha . Shes one of my favs

It's hard to pick one song, so I'll just pick the *Sparkle Soundtrack* (1976).
@@NaturallyMarMar Giving Him Something He Can Feel 🎵🎶❤️
@@danavixen6274yes, indeed!
The best soundtrack ❤
Too many songs to name. All hail The Queen! RIP, Queen!
Can you do a video on Lonette McKee? She plays “Sister” in the original Sparkle and is in a bunch Spike Lee movies.
“Hurts like hell”.. such a good song!
I grew up with this lady’s beautiful voice in my life. “Til You Come Back To Me” and “Daydreamin” are my favorites till this day. Great job as usual ❤❤❤.
That coat at 4:05 is beautiful. Its a travesty the way fashion has went a bit too casual & masculine. Aye there's still beautifully feminine pieces about but they're getting fewer & farther between. Aretha was a divinely talented woman & she could wear some stunning gowns etc ❤
My mother always played Ms.Aretha's songs. Her voice amazing one of a kind and I love her ' get back lines. She would get you. I think she such a beautiful woman. She talked about being in love with Sam cooke until her death. Aunt Ree Ree. R.I.P.
Precious Lord take my hand. Wholy, Holy and Mary Don’t you wept are my mother’s favorite!!
R.E.S.P.E.C.T , Natural Woman & I knew u where waiting - with legend George Michael. Rip Miss Franklin, 4ever The Queen Of Soul 🧡
My favorite song by Aretha is “Until you come back to me”
I loved Chain of Fools because it reminded me of my ex, whose name was Shane, who was a fool.
You should of added that clip of Aretha fluffing Whitney Houston’s wig at one of them award shows ☠️
HAVE- You should HAVE - not you should “of”.
Blessing love the content 🙏❤️👍🇵🇷
My favorite singer and artist. I love her "Freedom" song, I found many topics in common with my personal life common ❤
Freedom.
One of my favourites from Aretha Franklin is "One Step Ahead", she put everything in her music she really was the Queen of Soul 💐💐💐💐💐💐
