Tina Turner has been around since 1955 so let’s give it up for 52 years in the game…forreal. Tina doesn’t and probably will never get the recognition that she deserves in America because even though her and Ike charted several hits they were very much a soul group in the studio but once they hit the stage it was pure rock.

People think that Tina Turner went rock n’ roll after Ike, but she’s been at the forefront of rock n’ roll since it’s inception and she’s the reason that you hear singers like Rhianna singing hits like ‘Umbrella’ and you see artist like Mary J. doing duets with U2.

Tina has broken down more doors for female performers of all races but she’s especially changed the way that whites see African American females in music. Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Bryan Adams, Tom Jones, Elvis, Paul McCartney, and other huge names in the music business have all dueted with Tina – why? Because she’s the Queen!

I am wondering when black America is going to give Tina Turner the true respect that she deserves. When will she get her BET celebration? I mean they’ve done it in London for the MOBO Awards. Why is black America so hesitent to give Tina her props? Is it because she moved to Europe became as big as the Rolling Stones and Madonna? Black America seems to like their artist to live in a constant state of “blackness” and not move beyond and experiment artistically. Good job Tina for giving us soul, country, R&B, Rock n’ Roll, Pop Rock, and more!

Aretha was like listen little girl, I’m the Queen and I deserve some R.E.S.P.E.C.T and Tina can keep rolling on the river! lol

I love the Queen. Big, beautiful and proudly black! It doesn’t get any better. Plus Aretha could possibly eat both Tina and Beyonce.

ReRe been a diva since forever. She is always dissing the new crop of singers. She straight up told Mary J. Blige to her face that she could not sing. When a reporter asked her about the song she sang with Fantasia, she told them that she is too good and famous to sing with anyone. They sing with her. And you know what, I ain’t mad at her. ReRe has an amazing voice! Can any of those other chicks sing Pop, Gospel, R&B, Rock & Roll, Soul, or Opera on her level? Even at her weight and age, those chicks can’t get on the level of the Queen.

How immature of Ms. Franklin, she also lacks unity as a black woman for other successful black women. Instead of singing praises for these two woman, she’s too busy being jealous. I’ll say.
