This is the baddest bitch to ever rock the music world. It is such a shame she hasn't made music in almost 30 years and that most people have never heard of her. Is there anyone from today that you think who is as good or better than her? I can't think of one. I bet some of you will say Beyonce but I disagree. No one comes even close as far as i'm concerned. Not even Kelis whom I love!

my friend nikka rocks pretty hard..

Remasters of her first two albums come out May 15!!!

I love Betty. We need like 20,000 Betty threads in here every day.

She should be discussed more than Madonna, Janet and Mariah combined.

And I'll even throw Bjork and Tori in that list for good measure.

BETTY IS FIERCE!

Beyonce? ...anybody who mentions Beyonce obviously doesn't have a starving clue what Ms.Davis sounded like. Oh, and uh Anx, your mentioning of more Betty threads, was there anyone BEFORE me, who ran a Betty Davis thread on this site? I bet yours and my lunch money that's how dancerella got hip to Betty. Can u pat my back through the screen?

errr...i've actually i've been into betty davis for about 5 years now. i own all 3 cds and even that "crashin for passion" one that came out years later. it's her weakest album and sounmds more disco than the hard funk she was known for. you have no idea how badly i wish this woman would put out a new cd!

nikka costa is a bad chick but she still doesn't come close. i would say joi would be closer to betty davis than nikka.

Anx said:

Guys there's one artist i thought of that is sort of along the same lines as our goddess betty davis though her music is obviously quite different. Peaches! she doesn't give 2 shits what anyone thinks of her and she rocks harder than a mother. she still aint no BD though but she gets props for tryin.

I can dig it, rella. U gotta understand when reading my posts; So much of the time I'm tongue in cheek, u know? There's no way I would know when u got hipped to something. I thought the "pat on the back through the screen" was a dead giveaway I was playing around.

Anx said:

And as for u, Anx; Of course u weren't paying attention. I see my name in bold letters, thank u, thank u. More folks should address me that way. I see YOU GET IT! Funny though, I can't feel that pat on the back.
