The way I was looking the word of genius in an exceptional quality.

So, of course, Aretha Franklin has an exceptional quality.

She has her beautiful voice, her amazing and brilliant piano playing.

And she's the first American in the Serie is the first woman, the first person of color.

And she was able to Malcolm eyes her life into sonic gold.

My singing voice has always been my guardian angel keeps me safe.

It feels good to share with the world that black women contain genius that we are geniuses.

I need you to follow me because we're gonna get lost.

Otherwise, Cynthia a Revo is just phenomenal.

It blows me away.

Thio here.

How much she sounds like a rethink how she embodies her as just a fan of Aretha.

I've listened to her music since I was little and I was learning her music before I knew I was gonna be doing anything like this.

We don't know.

Good.

We don't feel good.

Yes, this is a big show way.

Have a lot of costume changes.

A lot of pieces that I've done also replicates what she actually wore at certain events that we want to honor in Siris.

Thank you so much.

Thank you very much.

Yeah, we're allowing three audience access to what it was like for her back then.

And there was a lot of stress and trauma and you learn those things and you just go.

How did she become Aretha Franklin as we know her?

The idea that she was able to combine her music with activism is really special.

And I don't know that people realize that she was an activist.

They shoot us down like dogs.

Like our lives ain't worth nothing.

It's time to make a stand.

People forget how powerful music can be considered.

And she used that power to empower the rest of her community.

You got to disturb the peace when you can't get no peace.

That's why we celebrate her.

She's the queen of soul, your soul mine.

Everybody's.
