      Also I thought her voice was Shakey saying that as if the pain of it was fresh and she had to hold back hear emotions and tears. This breaks my heart so. She didn't deserve that and I wish the black community as a whole had given her an apology to heal that pain. They owed her that.

    I do recall her being criticised by some for lacking soul due to the songs on her second album, but I noticed all critique of her singing style from the black community were quickly silenced once she did that bodyguard soundtrack. Its success was just so phenomenal taking her to another level both in terms of fame and respect. She conquered the world with that soundtrack, one of the best selling albums of all time. Twenty + years later (and despite all the bad press/craziness that happened in her life) people of all races are still singing her songs and will continue to- a true testament of her talent. She was and will always be a legend - as black people we should be proud of her accomplishments!

      The prefix ''African'' in ''African-American'' means BLACK. African is used as a placeholder to refer to the fact that your kind snatched my people FROM Africa and dragged us in chains to the USA, thus we come from manny African countries.
      And no, y'all ain't Africans if you're just a colonizer in Africa, so im not going to refer to you as one. Y'all cave folk in South Africa are Dutchmen, and Dutchmen you shall be called, same with the Middle Eastern colonizers in North/East Africa.
      And no, a stray dog can't just move to America from Africa and suddenly morph into an African-American 🤣🤣. African-American literally refers to the *BLACK* people who were taken on slave ships from Africa to the USA, there's no loophole around it. But you see how easy it is for your people to rewrite history if we don't know ours? Like you really just sat there writing your own fantasy book expecting me to take you seriously LMFAO.
      I should've stopped when you said ''Elon Musk is an African-American'' cause you're probably just a dumb troll but hey 😂😂
      And you're a cave person, so why are you even tryna dictate what black people should be called? lmfao.

      @Thegazelle1000 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      @Shandra Smith true and let's not forget about her low self confidence !! Robyn and Kevin Costner used to say that she cares to much about what people thought about her, she used to ask sometimes "if she was good enough? If they will like her? If she was pretty enough? If people will come (before a live performance)!!! If you paid attention to her interviews from 1990 to... she became a little bit defensive, people thought it was because of fame. For me she was trying to protect herself from those people who were making jokes about her! They said she was too white (musically), they said she didn't know how to dance, they said she wore wigs (I'm black too and I wear wigs too like many American and African women). They said a lot of things to put her down. I call it JEALOUSY because she was talented, gifted and BEAUTIFUL and when someone had all those things some people will hate for no reason! She got bullied at the elementary school, at high school and then at the soul train awards! I think that's why she started to behave like she was from the hood, marry a black man like Bobby Brown so the black community would accepted her. I wish that she shouldn't listen to them and continued to do what she wanted!

We still see that even to this day in all facets of life. It's sickening how we tear each other down. No knock against any of those singers you mentioned because they're all extremely talented and I love them all, but Whitney was a bigger star on a larger scale. She shouldn't have to apologize for it. Michael used to get that same crap.

    + I was a little kid in the late 1980s but I do remember that my older siblings, aunts and uncles were saying how Whitney sings “white pop songs”,,,
    so I think the black fans weren’t saying she sings white, but they were saying her songs sounded like white pop songs and not the black R&B songs

    Something I just noticed 0:57-1:04 When she said the song was about Arsenio, and he said it's not and he has to live the fantasy through "friends" He was referring to Eddie Murphy who she dated.

    Yeah I never understood why some black ppl took issue with her songs. I mean I remember ppl saying they weren’t “black enough” or “R&B” enough. All I can say is I’m glad she knew who she was as a singer and person. She didn’t let other people define her

    Dear Whitney had a lot of swag...she's adorable and sassy and witty and so funny! such a huge huge loss...I think there was still a lot of music left in her..
    She always maintained that her background was not R&B it was gospel! And that gospel gave her everything she knew about music and that's how she sings...there was no influence of R&B growing up as her Mom taught her the ropes, everything musically she alrways credited her mom and her family...

    I remember the controversy from the Soul Train Awards. My bff and I were watching. We didn't hear the boos that night, but heard about them later.. We were really confused. Whitney always sang like a Black woman to us. Considering that Gospel is the basis of most r n b singing, it didn't make sense. We did not understand any of it. We surmised that basically folks were jealous of her success. Maybe we thought she had left the community. We thought it was strange and a little off.

    I hate that her brothers started her on the drugs that eventually killed this beautiful soul. Her family is evil and
    used this beautiful person up until she just couldn't take it anymore. Her brother Michael laughed in an
    interview about how he turned her onto coke and crack. He bragged about how he was her personal drug
    runner all over the world. They didn't do a damn thing to help her.

    @2000coco Aretha, her mum and her cousin Dionne were her biggest inspirations, also Chaka Khan and Natalie Cole. Those were the singers she listened to most, and studied. As you rightly said, Gospel music is the source.

    Whitney started out as a model, appearing on the cover of magazines such as Seventeen. But she didn't like being told what to do during the shoots. (We are not surprised to hear this about Whitney, right! ?!) She preferred pursuing her singing career and once she signed with Arista records, the rest is music and film acting history. The greatest performer of our time.

      I hear it. Some people like to paint Whitney as some poor victim, but to have made it in the business as long as she did, you gotta have a tough skin. She had it to me, she didn't look phased at all. It's just like she said at 3:52, "I'd like to say that and some other things." Please, there's white people who are still hoping and wishing to sound half as good as Whitney, there's gospel and soul all in that woman's voice.

    I always say why whitney is the blueprint of styles and singing. I know that she growup with gospel music and surround by greatest singers. But she has this aura of being a superstar. And her voice is not like a typical black singer who is just singing highnotes to etched the soul in their voice whitney is kindly different to them that's why she is relevant and her contribution to the world is phenominal. There is something that voice that is ORIGINAL not to copy other sound but i truelly tell this whitney vocal is a pivotal of what gospel voice is all about.

    There was no bumping & grinding in the vidoes in those day, but there were so very many amazing R & B singers, and they sounded more urban. Anita Baker, Regina Belle, Patti Labelle, Melissa Morgan, Shirley Murdock, Mikki Howard, Karyn Whtie, Angela Winsbush.. to name a few , they also work with the black songwriters and producers. Whitney was a pop singer and work with Clive Davis, It was the crowd that booed her.. they probably felt she shouldnt have been nominated just she work in pop music.
