Made a remastered version of the Down South snippet, by Ethel Cain. Enjoy ya'll!
P.S The distortion is not from me but the demo I found so if it's kinda hazy it's because so much of the snippet was messed up and indistinguishable lol.

25 "Step by step" - Whitney Houston
writer Annie Lennox
"Being around people like Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick and Roberta Flack, all these greats, I was taught to listen and observe. It had a great impact on me as a singer, as a performer, as a musician. Growing around it, you just can't help it. I identified with it immediately. It was something that was so natural to me that when I started singing, it was almost like speaking."
Part of the UncoolTwo50 project, marking the best singles from 1977-99.
One could argue that Whitney Houston was an early nepo baby. Daughter of Cissy Houston, niece of Dionne Warwick, the famous relations opened doors. But Whitney made it on her own brilliance: a superb voice, a perfect show, and the drive to succeed.
Tumblr media
Signed up by Clive Davis of Arista Records, and made his personal priority, Whitney was granted access to the classiest songs and greatest musicians. The debut album had ballads "Saving all my love for you" and "You give good love" to show off her tender side; disco stomper "How will I know"; and a reading of "Saving all my love for you" to leave nothing on the table.
Second album Whitney had the uptempo "I wanna dance with somebody", love song "Didn't we almost have it all", and the surprisingly smutty "Love is a contact sport". Only a completely-missing-the-point version of "I know him so well" with her mum spoiled the album. After the gloopy "One moment in time", album I'm Your Baby Tonight was a one-note disco album, saved only by "All the man I need".
The Bodyguard dominated Whitney's time for a couple of years, and gave her most-remembered hit "I will always love you". A remake of A Star is Born was mooted, but never happened; instead the galpal romcom Waiting to Exhale came out in 1995 and had a hugemungous soundtrack album - it's a wonderful capsule of New Jill Swing, where American women were at. "Count on me" and "Exhale" the big singles.
The Preacher's Wife was a festive comedy for 1996, Whitney co-starred with Denzel Washington. It's mostly an update of The Bishop's Wife, with a large quotient of church music on the soundtrack album with the Georgia Mass Choir. The film was Whitney's acting highlight, simultaneously flirtatious and temptress.
youtube
"Step by step" had been written by Annie Lennox, and released as the B-side to 1992 single "Precious". Whitney's version takes a yearning song with gospel tinges, and transforms it into an uplifting house song. Age has leant Whitney some gravitas; we cannot imagine Whitney '85 making this sound. As much at home on Radio 1's club show as it was on "soft rock" 100.7 Heart FM, it reminded us that Whitney could a) make danceable music and b) when she wanted to be great, she was bloody brilliant.
Whitney only made two more full studio albums, My Love is Your Love (1998) and Just Whitney (2002), before getting lost in a mess of drink and drugs. Comeback album I Look to You (2009) was respectfully received, but her death in 2012 left so much unsung.
Tumblr media
For me, "Step by step" and The Preacher's Wife are peak Whitney - her best acting, some of her best singing, roles she was at home performing.
Very difficult to pick just four Whitney songs - I eventually chose "How will I know", "It's not right but it's ok", and "All the man I need" for the longlist; "Step by step" the only one to make the shortlist. Brandy's "Sitting up in my room" from Waiting to Exhale also made the longlist. Annie Lennox was another act with so many quality songs - "No more 'I love you's" beat out the five singles from Diva.

If you ever want to hear the voice of God just listen to Whitney Houston and even better for the holidays watch her in "The Preacher's Wife". The gospel singing is heavenly.

been getting super into Golden Age. all the songs are great. production is super different from her newer stuff and it took it a while for it to grow on me but i do like it. still cant listen to Head In the Wall though :(
my personal favorite song rn is Casings. i love the harmonies on that one, and the gradual build and fall. everything in this EP has a very gentle and smooth build and fall to the instrumentals. feels very natural.

What are your opinions on black gospel music? Stuff like we must praise by James moss or I need you now by smokie norful? Or even music with a livelier tone like they that wait by Fred Hammond or Jesus be a fence around me. Do you think any of that stuff could have an influence on any of your music in the future? 🖤
i mean black gospel is kind of the sonic foundation for 90% of everything i’m inspired by so it’s already been heavily influencing me from the beginning. preacher’s wife will most likely be more directly inspired by it, if i had to guess (idk i haven’t even started writing it yet lol). sam cooke was a huge inspiration at the tail end of the PD recording process, and purple rain (which is most definitely a black gospel song in my book) was the core inspiration for sun bleached flies.
