Genius Aretha is fitting for the Queen of Soul!\rCynthia does an excellent job portraying Aretha Franklin. Courtney Vance gives you an excellent portrayal of Reverend Franklin - an angel to demons and in between. The cast is superb. The wardrobe was fabulous. Cynthia can belt with the best of them and she does Aretha justice. I can't wait to see the other 3 episodes of the series.

I was pleasantly surprised with this episode. So far things seem to be authentic and not sugarcoated.

Shining a light on the Queen of Soul. Revealing the reality of being female and working hard to the music industry.

Powerful. Reverting. Brilliant.
