🎶🎤🎬👏🏿❤#ArtIsAWeapon *swoon* "Betty: They Say I'm Different" - the #documentary about the iconic #funkmusic #goddess #BettyDavis - is finally out on @vimeo. If you don't know who this trailblazing, badass, beautiful woman is, you need to! I'm so happy Betty's story is being told via this documentary and this season's episode of the @cinemax series "Tales From The Tour Bus" - she deserves all the shine and credit! FROM www.vimeo.com: "Funk Queen Betty Davis changed the landscape for female artists in America...An aspiring #songwriter from a small steel town, Betty arrived on the '70s scene to break boundaries for women with her daring personality, iconic fashion and outrageous funk music. She befriended #JimiHendrix and #SlyStone, wrote songs for the Chambers Brothers and the Commodores, and married Miles – startlingly turning him from jazz to funk on the album she named 'Bitches Brew.' She then, despite being banned and boycotted, went on to become the first black woman to perform, write and manage herself. Betty was a #feminist #pioneer, #inspiring and intimidating in a manner like no woman before. Then suddenly - she just vanished... Betty Mabry Davis is a global icon whose mysterious life story has until now, never been told. Creatively blending documentary, animation and nonfiction techniques, this movie traces the path of Betty’s life, after years of trying, the elusive Betty, forever the free-spirited #BlackPowerGoddess, finally allowed the filmmakers to creatively tell her story based on their conversations." #BettyMabryDavis #Music #Documentary #FunkGoddess #TheySayImDifferent #BlackWoman #BitchesBrew #MilesDavis #BlackWomanMusicians #NastyGalMovie #MusicIsLife #TraScapades #BlackGirlMovieGeeks🤓 #BlackGirlFilmGeeks🤓 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt3xWNvlXbi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a6j4118j8mul
