    I love Ledisi. I saw her perform years ago at BB. king. My friend invited me. I had never heard of her back then but I was blown away by her amazing personality and performance. She is an amazing and very fun and entertaining performer. She said she had a cold that day but her voice was sounding to me like a mixture of Chaka Khan and Fantasia. That day she said she wanted to get a Grammy. She really deserves the best of the best. She is that good and beyond. I love all her music. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    I think 🤔 Ledisi maybe a great pick to play the leading role! But it would be a musical, so there are a lot of singer positions. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Just saying. I think that is the point of this clip! And I am okay with that. I was playing around when I made that comment. But I still believe, some real one on one lessons, I could have transition into a real performer. I was caught behind lies. I have already dealt with that. One thing I am not going to let happen is being put in situations of "playing one against each other.

    That is widely known. A friend doesn't need to rehash your tragedy. She already walked with you through the storm. After I had traumatic loss several years ago my circle got very small & tight. But they walked with me through the storm back into the light. The closest ones have made similar comments to me... to show me that they see my growth... not to ignore my tragedy. There was no shade in this whatsoever. JHud didn't need to rehash her pain fault for your satisfaction I hate when people invent issues between black women... between women at all... but especially between black women. Stop it.
