No. Most overrated artist ever. Early music was annoying pop garbage. Later music was just generic top 40 love ballads. Didn't start making quality music until she started to fall off late 90s. She has nothing on Aretha. Respect=Legendary. Until you come back to me= Legendary. Say a little Prayer=Legendary. Something he can feel=Legendary. Chain of fools=Legendary. You make me feel=Legendary



And thats just the 60s nikka. And I can probably add like ten more songs from that time period.

Deh fucc you talkin' about Aretha for?

I asked if Whitney didn't have any legendary songs, and she do.

If you say she don't, you need to blow that sheeit out...

Some of y'all gonna really act like these other folks on Aretha level? Her voice is a natural resource for gods sake. Let's not get into how underrated she is as a pianist.

Exactly

Nah Whitney surpassed her with vocal feats but you can here the Aretha influence in Whitney's voice moreso than you do her own mom Cissy

WRONG. Whitney her self would tell you that Aretha is the GOAT

Breh this is a dumb cop-out argument and you know it. Whitney was 10 times bigger and do you hear stories like this about her?

Notice in this story Aretha went at it with both her peers AND the younger generation

Meanwhile alot of singers have good things to say about meeting Whitney and the young ones like Monica and Brandy always appreciated her for showing love

Whitney was arguably a bigger "diva" than Aretha but still showed love to people. What is Aretha's excuse? She is a miserable old bytch..



And i still say Diana was a pedophile and was thirsting after Michael :mjpls: when he was a kid



I know you dont seriously believe Aretha is better than Whitney Elizabeth Houston

Stop, Whitney was bigger because of White people. That's why she got booed at the Soul Train Awards. Whitney wasn't even seen as an R&B/Soul Artist.

That's why she got with Bobby to rehabilitate her Blackness.

Aretha is and will always be the queen to Black folks.

Patti Labelle's the only one who's in the same building with Aretha.

Notice a lot of older black folks dont like Diana. Why? :ohhh:

I like Diana Ross music. :ohhh:

That is not true. Diana Ross and the Supremes were a big part of Motown.

The way I've seen it, Diana Ross was White people's Black singer back in the '60s.

Whenever I see old heads talk about Diana, it's always about how Mary Wilson & Florence Ballard were WAYYYYY better singers than Diana and Diana only got to where she was by fukkin' Barry Gordy.

Ray was blind yet still found his way to fukkery and heroin..i wonder if Stevie wonder got some stories about a dark side? :patrice: He too is from the Motown degenerate generation.

Dude, why do you think that Stevie went so hard in the '70s?

Dude got in the car crash that almost killed him and that straighed his ass out

He was touring with the Rolling Stones doing ALL KINDS of demonic shyt.

Then that accident happened and we got Innervisions, Songs in the Key of Life, and all that shyt out of it.

First off fukk nikkas you not going to slander Col Taylor saying he fukked Aretha son. You think he would still have any career if that was true? And most people in Detroit says her first two sons were by random nikkas in her school, not her father. She was fukking Sam Cooke when she was 12 tho. And probably legit ho'd to get into the business since her first husband was a known major pimp who beat the piss out here

nikka, look at what dudes like James Cleveland & CL Franklin was getting away with.

Joe Jackson too.

Dr. Dre too.

We let all kinds of nikkaz get away with shyt in our community.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm guilty too. Even when it comes to nikkaz like OJ, whenever I see White folks talking about him, I'm like:childplease:

Yeah Whitney always showed respect to Aretha and Aretha is the Queen of Soul for a reason. With that being said I've heard Whitney breeze through some of Aretha's most difficult songs like she was yawning. I've also heard Whitney's predecessors struggle when covering her songs. Aretha is the undisputed Queen and Whitney is the undisputed Voice.

Whitney's got a better range, so does Mariah Carey, but neither of them have the sheer power of Aretha.

She's like the Shaq of gospel/soul vocalists. She's bigger and stronger than everybody else.

Whitney would be Kobe Bryant, technically more proficient, but not the sheer freak of nature that Aretha was.

Breh Whitney is better than her, wrong example to use. Dudes shouldnt bring up the musician aspect either cause nobody mentions being a musician when talking about how legendary Aretha is so they shouldn't use it just to compare to Whitney

And Aretha knows Whitney was better hence how she acted cause she felt she was competition.

whitney was not better than aretha....she was pretty close vocally but not better. Plus aretha was a beast on piano and organ:ehh:
