Whitney Houston - Leave It As It Is

 

 Whitney Houston has been gone since 2012. People are still grieving that they lost her. Sometimes I want to say more about her death and how things seemed pretty ironic. But something keeps telling me to (singing) Leave It As It Is. …..

When Whitney Houston Called Bobby Brown the Original R&B King

 


They thought it was ridiculous when Whitney Houston called her husband the original R&B King. They thought Whitney had bumped her head, Well, maybe he was to her, and she knew what Bobby could do. She lived with him, and she knew about singing. When it comes to music, there are many kings and queens in their own way. In my opinion, Bobby Brown was the Hip Hop R&B King at the time if not R&B King. 

Whitney knew Bobby more than any critic, and I don’t think she was really wrong about Bobby. She knew what he had in him. After all, Bobby was her husband. I don’t know if he ever sang songs to her when they were alone. I’m sure Whitney knew some things about Bobby the critics didn’t know. Whitney had been around voices and talent all of her life. She also had good sense when she wanted to have it. Maybe sometimes they saw her acting a little crazy, but Whitney had sense.

When Whitney called Bobby Brown the original R&B king, maybe she saw that he could be. Maybe she could see that he had that in him when nobody else could. She might have been a little right about it considering how well he sang Ain’t No Sunshine on the show Masked Singer. Bobby sang like he never sang before. He sang from his heart and soul. He sang with feeling.

Whitney Houston Called Him the Original R&B King

The instant I heard Bobby Brown sing the first words of Ain’t No Sunshine, I knew it was the song for him and his voice. He really sang from the heart. Out of all the years I’ve heard him sing, hearing him sing Ain’t No Sunshine really made me listen to him the most. Bill Withers sang it well, but there was just something about Bobby’s voice that made the song  sound so touching. It all goes back to what Whitney Houston said. She called Bobby the original R&B King. She was married to him and knew him. There was nothing wrong and nothing weird about what Whitney said.
