Aretha Franklin, socially charged, singles
When Lady Aretha, as in Aretha Franklin, breaks something down for you, you’d better listen! In 1998, the lauded “Respect”diva belted out “A Rose Is Still Arose. And she was not alone, Lauryn Hill joined in on the song that became Franklin’s biggest hit in the late 90s.
Starring actress Elise Neal (in the music video), Franklin’s video reached out to struggling young women, telling them “A Rose Is Still A Rose, baby girl you’ve got the power”.
To this day, “A Rose Is Still A Rose” ranks high amongst music enthusiasts.
