Cynthia is problematic and doesn't look or sound like Aretha but it's a pretty good series
They pulled in so many artists to sing too

And they're including a lot of the drama
I'll start it tonight.
cynthia can go to hell
shes not Harriet or aretha
First episode was really good— liking it so far !
It was really dark sided. I didn't know her father not only got a 12 year old in the congregation pregnant but he's rumored to be the father of aretha's first child :uhh:
He was a mess
and Queen Retha stayed stealing Carolyn's thunder
:dead:
!!
not her recording the mess right after her sister's flopped
Ray he was more than a "mess" :ummwhat:
True, mess was just the first word I thought of
but trash, despicable etc apply
I actually LOVED it.
Cynthia didn't look or sound like Re but she had her mannerisms and shy demeanor down to a tea. It broke my heart how no one protected her as a child. Seeing that little girl on the choir stand with a baby bump was sad as fuck. Two kids by the age of 14 my God.
And I do believe her sicko of a daddy knocked her up at age 12. He already had another12 year old baby mama by that time. Ew ew ew!!
Her father didn't get her pregnant... her first two children have the same father.
But I LOVED the series... I think Cynthia was great!
Isn't her eldest severely disabled? Incest could be the cause....
