    Notice how Terry left when he was unhappy? Men do this so often - they never “hang in there/hold on” when they feel undervalued. Women NEED to start doing the same!

      YET...Divorces are initiated by who? Look it up...Women run way before Men do that is what the numbers say. I have watched good Men die suffering in silence dealing with a malcontent and contentious Wife. Many Women are alone today because they don't want to build a home they want the benefits of being a Wife but not the work required to make it a success.

      She said that she don't want to be an entertainer, she's happy being a financial advisor. There is no money in entertaining, unless you are behind the scene. Performers don't make any money. How they make money is by investing their money. A record contract is a loan to pay ALL of your expenses. The record company don't pay for anything. If you flopp, they WILL drop you. A lot of the music videos that you see, that stuff is rented. Most artist still live at home with mommy.

    She probably was suffering from postpartum depression. Back then, it wasn’t widely diagnosed if at all especially in women of color. Women are expected to bounce back and perform and be the same person as soon as you have a baby and that’s extremely hard to do. I love her voice and all her songs. Thanks for the video. Great job as always!

      She was on top at one time. I think her downfall was she didn't tour the way Janet and Paula toured and performed.
      When the public sees you dancing and performing in a music video, the public will expect the same LIVE.. Also, Karen used many of the dancers from Janet/Paula's music videos and those dancers could not be split up three ways on promotional tours.

      She lost out on a good relationship as she stated she messed it up herself. That’s why it is not good for women to have sex with a lot of different men a lot of negative and strange toxic energy enters you and rears its ugly head to the relationship that’s going well for you replay the toxic behavior that was deposited in you spiritually. Women don’t sleep around because you’re only sabotaging your own future

      In her video for 'Romantic', she is dancing, in fact she does even more dancing in this video.. Because of all the fast editing, you can't fully see the full choreography, this is done to hide the fact that the dancing and choreography is sub par.

      Warner Bros hired fame fashion photographer Matthew Ralston to direct the music video, Matthew, also directed the video for En Vogue's 'My Lovin' video (very similar theme to Karen's Romantic video). So, Karen's record label put in the money and promoted her...

I notice right after they got married I didn't hear anything from her no more. The music just stopped and at that time she was famous and working her way to the top, so I'm kind of believing the rumor, because even if she just wanted to take a break after having the baby oh, she could get right back into shape and keep going oh, that didn't stop Ciara from performing. I believe that Terry was controlling and when she got tired he didn't want her no more. Now remember, she always wanted to be a singer and right now she is still beautiful and young looking, she can get right back to it no questions asked. She just has to hold her ground.

    I know Karyn White was trying to be a full-time mom to her child around the time Make Him Do Right (1994) came out, but you don't ignore record companies' requests to tour. She was on some my way or the highway stuff when she made that album. That album was a departure from her first two albums, music critics either panned the album or thought it was mediocre, and she didn't want to tour. All those ingredients add up or added up (for Karyn White) to so-so record sales, a long disappearance from the music biz, and more. And that sucks because that woman can sang!!!!!

    I'm SO glad this video was posted!!! Its so easy for women to blame the man for all of the issues they face. Not this woman!
    She took responsibility into her own hands, overcame the grief and depression and came out on top and better than she's ever been! That is the hallmarks of a true strong black woman! Ms. White, you are phenomenal, baby! Mad props! ❤!

    I lost my phone and I had a couple of her songs in my play list and could not remember her name. Then all of a sudden it popped into my head
