@itslivyun: BADDIE 17 ✨: Baddies You Should Look Up To Today’s baddie is Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul and one of the most powerful voices in music history. What most people don’t know is that early in her career, record labels tried to shape Aretha into a polished jazz singer instead of letting her lean into the gospel style that made her special. Then came “Respect.” What started as a song became a movement. Aretha went on to win 18 Grammy Awards, became the first woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and used her voice to support the Civil Rights Movement. Aretha is proof that your power grows the moment you stop shrinking yourself for other people. Follow for more baddies ✨🎤 #womenempowerment #feminism #TikTokChallenge #BlackHistory #WomensHistoryMonth
