        Aretha may have passed on to a better place, but the gift of her music remains to inspire us all. May the Queen of Soul rest in eternal peace.

        #RipArethaFranklin tho I have to ask whats with those of you using Aretha Franklin’ passing to belittle & or downplay & or discredit Beyoncé? Beyoncé didn’t overstep the line because Aretha isnt the only Queen. More than one Queen exists. Tina Turner Beyoncé are also “The Queen”

        #RipArethaFranklin The Queen of Soul opened doors for Beyoncé this is true. However There’d still be a Beyoncé. She’d open those doors her gaht damn self if she had to. So... There’d be no Aretha Franklin without Mahalia Jackson. There’d be no “natural woman” without carol king

        She was one of those rare artists whose every single performance, recorded or live, was a foot-tapping, heart-stirring, butt-moving, soul-shaking, creatively-prime audio experience of unconstrained "WOW".

        Profoundly sad. Love, prayers, and respect for the Queen of Soul. The voice of our generation who healed us when we needed it most. Today heaven’s choir welcomed their lead singer. Rest in Peace, Aretha. 💔
