Whitney Nippy Houston

SOUL SISTER MUSIC
WHITNEY NIPPY HOUSTON
Something about her is still alive. She's in the music and the music in us. Back in Washington DC Live in 1997, I felt the closeness between Nippy, Monica, and Brandy. There were other close friends there too, but from Nippy, I felt a sister hood. Whitney Nippy Houston. She brought the music down with three vocalist in the background. Nippy was singing "Shoop", and folks from the audience joined. I wish I could of been there so she could hear me shoop. What would my words have been? ........

Whitney Houston Star Spangled Banner 1988

Whitney Houston had been singing the Star Spangled Banner before 1991. She also sang it at a basketball game in 1988 for Kareem Abdul Jamar’s retirement. Whitney had done a very good job even then but a fantastic job singing it in 1991.

You know something was going on in Whitney's career. Something happened. But through it all, there was something about Whitney that made me know that she never let the gospel go because she was always singing it. Whitney's last live performance was "Jesus Loves Me" with Kelly Price. The song appears on the album "The Bodyguard" of the original soundtrack in 1992.

I think Whitney Houston made the right decision singing the gospel though she was singing R&B. She didn't sing the gospel in every performance, but I'm glad that she did sing it when she did. When she was singing the gospel, it was probably the best church Hollywood ever had. Often, "Jesus Loves Me" is a song we need to hear. Some people may have gotten saved hearing Whitney sing that song, and I'm sure the song was a great reminder to Whitney through her trials.




Some people don't believe that you should sing both gospel and R&B. But it's not what we sing that gets us to heaven. It's living the word of God.

We judge a drug addict and an alcoholic, but God knows what caused the problem. God knows if someone caused the problem, and he's the best judge because only he can see what's down in the soul.

Whitney Houston knew that she would be talked about, but she also knew that Jesus loved her, and that she could go home to him; before it was to late. There is a story in the song, "Jesus Loves Me". I'm glad that Whitney gave God praise...........
