Such a shame, considered to be one of if not the very best singers ever.

I loved her music and her cameo in the Blues Brothers was incredible.

RIP Aretha.

She'll be missed.

She was my absolute favourite female recording artist. Incredible voice and by all accounts a lovely person.

She leaves behind one hell of a legacy.

An incredible person, with an awesome voice (both for singing and civil rights). I loved the first "The Blues Brothers", and the music. She did not play a major part (although you could not mistake her for anybody else).
