Holiday brews the blues.

@atiboy1 Louis Armstrong was probably Billie Holiday's single biggest influence. So it's EXTRA nice to see that interaction. Sign of a true talent - happy to shine the spotlight on someone else..
-
Just great music.

@newarkboy22 you are right i dont. I am not trying to give her a hard time since she is dead and can care less at this point i would assume. But just tell me you something please, is there no part of you that knows that she was capable of more if she has dealth with her demons instead of run from them. You think her are hearing her brilliance? Please the brilliant part is dispite herself her talent would not be quieted until she could no longer sing.
What you hear now is what haunted her life.
@lilmissmusic2012
You actually put two talentless no-accounts like Jay-Z and Beyonce in the same sentence as Billie Holliday and Satchmo?
You compare the horrifying noise Beyonce makes to the pure tones Ms Holliday produced? You compare Jay-Z's mumbling, incoherent ranting and cursing to the sheer genius of Armstrong?
I might have let you get away with comparing Alicia Keys or Erykah Badu, but Beyonce? Really?
That's a total insult to black people, music and artistic talent.
Just sayin' >:-(
