Aretha Franklin - Think by pansen
Aretha Franklin. I constantly wish that the Motown era could be reissued into our lives and on the radio. We currently live in a world filled with computer electronic beats spreading like third stage cancer and an epidemic destroying the essence of real human produced music. Sometimes, I really feel we’re listening to computers singing to us (Ke$ha’s the poster child for this), and that talent doesn’t really matter. But thank god for artists like Cee-Lo and Bruno Mars. Ok getting back from my frustration, I just love to listen to Aretha period. Even though this song is sung on American Idol like a gazillion times, but no one is close to Aretha. Aretha is at the doctorate level and the contestants are still in nursery. With Think, Aretha has the soul passes in her voice that last an eternity. Every time you listen to it you feel this swagger that is so classy. A lot of colored women in the media today are portrayed as these Bronx-esque girls fighting over stupid shit. It’s a stereotype that is disgusting, but with Aretha and the Motown era these colored girls are seen as these glamorous educated statuette ladies. So take note Lil’Kim and the Real Housewives of….any state. You better think.
