We know the real battle was between Patti and Aretha... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

I'm not really a Patti LaBelle fan (she screams too much) so I'll be cheering for Ms Gladys. Paisley Park is in your heart

Was never a huge Gladys fan although her voice has grown on me over time. I will have to go with Patti on this one. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

There will be no loser in this battle. For those saying Patti scream too much probably missed the BET awards last year when Ann Nesby hollered over all 45 members of Sounds Of Blackness Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

Well damn. Aretha was something else.
Aretha: I don't think listeners wanna wait that long to hear my voice after a long intro.
Luther: Trust me the listener will be intoxicated by the groove of the intro and will be excited to hear your voice afterwards
Aretha: Who has the most hits?
Luther: You do. But who has the latest hit?
Aretha doesn't answer and storms out [Edited 9/10/20 22:17pm] Don't laugh at my funk

I love Gladys & Patti EQUALLY. maybe maybe MAYBE by a VERY SLIGHT EDGE.. 1 could MAYBE argue that the quality of Gladys' voice is.. slightly.. discernably better than Patti's.. MAYBE.
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS.. | |

Now you talking. Can you imagine if Louis Johnson were still alive him vs Larry Graham? That would have been slap bass heaven of epic proportions. As for Gladys Knight I Don't Want To Do Wrong and When You're Far Away or 2 gems with the Pips I love. Don't laugh at my funk

you are right, but i guess my thought is that when it does, it underwhelms, doesn't live up to the hype, etc. my wife has been fooling with verzuz quite a bit, so i'm in PROXIMITY to it, but it doesn't PULL me in. i don't harp on the negative with things generally, but i've heard about them forgetting their lyrics and what not. Brandy v Monica's ratings and record sales surprised the hell out me because i don't feel Monica has the hits and neither of their new music does anything for me. I thought Jill vs. Erykah would've caught on like Monica v Brandy. the lasting impression of the entire series so far for me (and again, hearing and seeing the "spillage" on social media) is the aftermath of Teddy Riley vs. Babyface. That produced quite a few belly laughs, memes, and the best banter ever on social media. I guess they're sticking to "living" artists for their pairings thought | |
