THE INCOMPARABLE NINA SIMONE
NINA SIMONE'S DAUGHTER,SIMONE REMADE HER MOTHER'S CLASSIC SONG ALONG W/LEDISI & LAURA IZIBOR FOR THE SOUNDTRACK TO TYLER PERRY FILM, "FOR COLORED GIRLS". I GOT A CHANCE TO CATCH THE FILM OVER THE WEEK-END, & I MUST SAY IT WAS A GREAT ADAPTATION OF THE PLAY. ALTHOUGH THE PLAY,"FOR COLORED GIRLS WHO CONSIDERED SUICIDE WHEN THE RAINBOW IS ENUF", WRITTEN BY NTOZAKE SHANGE IS OVER 30 YEARS OLD, THOSE SAME ISSUES ARE STILL RELEVANT TODAY. I THINK TYLER DID A GREAT JOB OF TRANSLATING MS. SHANGE'S CLASSIC INTO FILM.

BLACK GIRLS ROCK! IN CASE YOU MISSED IT!
WOW! I MEAN THIS PERFORMANCE GAVE ME CHILLS. ALL OF THESE LADIES HAVE VOICES THAT REALLY MOVE YOU. THIS WAS A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO NINA SIMONE'S "4 WOMEN".
