I'm a little late to the party but your story time at the start was so incredibly real and I wasn't expecting it. I hope you've been able to work through it :)
Patti LaBelle and Fantasia have done countless of tribute performances for Aretha in the last 30 years. Patti has done all of the Aretha tributes on the highest level (Kennedy Center Honors etc.).
Yes, I totally agree. That was a good reminder for all of us to be kind and steer clear of racism as much as we can. It's very hurtful, even microaggressions. Keep being joyful! The Bible, music, good sleep, and time with loved ones are medicine to me.@@MAJreactions
Isn't this the live performance where Aretha discovered who would play her in the movie about her life? I'm pretty sure it is. Also, you seem like a good person MAJ. Treat this thing with the 'friend' as a lesson for how not to treat others in your life.
