NOTABLE AND QUOTABLE: Aretha "The Real Queen" Franklin



I knew I wasn't the only one who peeped that bullsh*t tribute that slighted some real "greats" in an attempt to sound significant by calling Tina the Queen. To this I say to that girl, "whateva bitch," and this is what The Queen had to say:

“I am not sure of whose toes I may have stepped on or whose ego I may have bruised between the Grammy writers and BeyoncĂ©, however I dismissed it as a cheap shot for controversy. In addition to that, I thank the Grammys and the voting academy for my 20th Grammy and love to BeyoncĂ© anyway.”
TRANSLATION: 'Tell that wannabe tina, having a seizure on stage, overhyped, controlled, scripted, lame robotic b*tch.....she needs to check her facts. Tina may be your blueprint but there's only one Queen up in this.....'

I feel ya!!! I was shocked when Beyonce had the nerve to finally call out Tina, love Tina, but she cannot be compared to Aretha - she's not in her league. It was insulting to some of the other greats that were mentioned - where Tina was no way in their league...
