#MsLMstatus: RIP Whitney Houston, Funeral Dedication Performances (VIDEO & BLOG) (Feb 12th-18th)




Everyone is well aware of Whitney Houston's downfalls and shortcomings if you followed her career. Regardless of those, no one could ever doubt the unprecedented talent of her vocal ability. Whitney was a part of an era where a lot of R&B Soul artist began crossing over to pop records. Most notably, Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson. The king and queen of pop music. The words that can be said for Whitney's talent and accomplishments could write books upon books. Something that stuck out to me is how many people were truly affected by her death, even the people who were children during her prime. Many of us looked at her as an aunt, mother or friend. Those who knew here personally and spoke about her as if she was angel put here to affect their lives, just through her consideration and kindness towards them. Yet through all of the great things she did for others she was the one full of pain and despair. Its a shame that people continue to badmouth her even when she is resting in peace but in response to the aftermath of her death, I'm proud to give some light to women who deserve the real credit because we can't let more and more of these angels waist away way too early.
