My People Know How to Own a Funeral

So I'm on the YouTube--looking for some Miss Patti (LaBelle that is)--and I found her giving a reading at Luther Vandross' funeral. This is furoche on so many levels. Here are a few of said levels:

1) The fact that NY1 ran this funeral as if the Pope had died is how you do TV in NYC. Cause you know Luther was IT
2) Patty comments on how fierce she looks at his funeral because Luther would have wanted that. True
3) At 5:03 she SANGS like only Patti can SANG

Lord, when my time please make me fabulous enough that Miss Patti can sing as my funeral. Cause this is how a proper blick needs to go out.

Amen.
