Remembering Whitney Houston

Singer, Whitney Houston, was an American superstar with a powerful voice and record breaking success. During the 80s and 90s, Whitney churned out hit after hit, with more consecutive #1 singles than any other artist. Discovered by music legend, Clive Davis, Whitney signed with Arista Records and released her first album, Whitney Houston, in 1985. The album was a success, both in the United States and internationally, kicking off a career that made her a global pop superstar.

After recording three albums Whitney decided to give acting another try and starred in The Bodyguard, alongside Kevin Costner. It was a box office success and so were the singles and soundtrack for the movie. Whitney went on to star in Waiting to Exhale and The Preacher's Wife, both featuring the singer's vocal abilities and and accompanied by a soundtrack.

Following these successes, Whitney turned her focus back to her singing career as news of her marriage to Bobbi Brown began making waves. The talented singer released Your Love is My Love, Just Whitney, and comeback album, I Look To You.

Whitney made her mark on the world, the music industry, and aspiring and successful artists everywhere. Her vocal talents and the powerful messages that she insisted her songs be made of will never be forgotten. I, personally, will remember her for the ability to inspire with music and putting out that message of love with every song.
