Diva 101: ARETHA FRANKLIN - Performances, Pop Culture Moments & Songs You NEED to Know {Part 2}

Continuing with our Diva 101 on Aretha Franklin, Angie and Steffi share their favorite Aretha Franklin live performances and pop culture moments. We also share Aretha Franklin songs you MUST know, our personal faves, and underrated gems in her catalog. Our Diva 101 episodes are a general overview of a classic diva’s career and a very basic introduction to the diva. These OG divas helped define how we think of the term “diva”. They are the blueprints. The architects. And without them, a lot of the divas that we talk about would cease to exist. (Le gasp!) The goal of Diva 101s is to introduce a diva and give a general overview of who they are: their influences, their career, who they would eventually go on to influence, and most importantly, why they matter in the Diva Pantheon. This is part 2 of the conversation! So make sure you go back and listen to part 1 where we discuss Aretha’s career timeline and make diva connections to the past & present divas.Diva Info: Aretha Louise Franklin was an American singer, songwriter and pianist.
