If you’re like many of us, here at I Love Old School Music, you probably missed Sunday night’s American Music Awards due to it’s consistent history of being a yawn inducing ceremony, filled with mostly bland performances at best. But just like us, you probably caught many of the highlights of the show on the internet. One of those said highlights was Christina Aguilera’s tribute to Whitney Houston.

Christina’s performance was the talk of the internet for two reasons: (1) Many bashed the hell outta her and the AMA’s for opting to ignore the many highly skilled Black singers for a ‘less talented’ (in comparison) Christina instead; and (2) although many praised her voice, they still shaded her for hitting a few off notes and being off-tempo at times.

How is Christina Aguilera flat, sharp, off-key and growling on a Whitney Houston tribute. Brandy is not gonna be happy!

Pat Houston Speaks On It

Now, Whitney’s sister-in-law/manager, Pat Houston, has weighed in on the mound of backlash surrounding Christina’s tribute. Simply put, Pat says that she thought it was “fabulous” and that as long as her and the rest of Whitney’s fam’ were hella pleased with the tribute, nothing else matters. Check out her reaction below:

As y’all can see, there were mixed reactions from all sides of the coin. True, Aguilera had a few shaky notes in her performance. It’s also true there are plenty of other singers who would’ve done a much better job, however…well, quite frankly I can’t think of a rebuttal for that, so I won’t try. Point is though, I don’t think Christina was exactly horrible, she just didn’t quite know how to put that stank on it, like our beloved Whitney would have done.

ILOSM fam,’ what did y’all think about Christina Aguilera’s ‘Whitney Houston tribute’?

Pat Houston Tells WHY Fam’ SHUT DOWN Whitney’s Hologram Duet w/Aguilera

Whitney Houston’s family has just given “The Voice” TV show some bad news…although it’s good news for Whitney’s fans. The Houstons have officially pulled the plug on “The Voice’s” Monday night season finale’ duet with Christina Aguilera and Whitney Houston’s hologram. Why is this good news you ask? Well it’s because the hologram looked NOTHING like Whitney. And although it was a very honorable effort on the part of “The Voice” and Aguilera, to air that hologram duet would have been a little dishonorable to her legacy, her fam,’ and her fans. But Pat Houston, Whitney’s estate executor, explained in detail why the family shut the duet down…

So Ranker.com created an ultimate list of the Best Female Vocalists Ever, now I know this site is well respected, but obviously not for their ears! We know these lists come out from time to time, but this list focused on the voices only, and not their careers. So this is strictly the sound that is coming out of their throats! Lol. So where’s the respect for the voices from the old school, and even new school vocalist???

How in the world do you list the top vocalists ever and not include Chaka Khan or Patti LaBelle in the top 10 or at least 15??? You aren’t going to believe who made the list. Check out the list and tell us what you think by taking the poll at the end of the article. See part 1 of the list on the next page…
