RIP QUEEN OF FUNK BETTY DAVIS

“Betty Davis(bornBetty Gray Mabry; July 16, 1944 – February 9, 2022) was an American singer, songwriter, and model best known for her controversial sexually-oriented lyrics and performance style, and for being the second wife of trumpeter Miles Davis. Her Allmusic profile describes her as "a wildly flamboyant funk diva with few equals… [who] combined the gritty emotional realism of Tina Turner, the futurist fashion sense of David Bowie, and the trendsetting flair of Miles Davis”.

Anti-Love Song, from her debut album “Betty Davis” (1973)

“Leave me burning alone in the dark
Cause I know you could make me suffer
I know you could drive me mad
When it got real
I know you’d disappear
That’s why I AIN’T gonna love you
Cause I know you like to be in charge
Well with me
You know you couldn’t control me
Dontcha?
Cause you know i’d make you drop your guard
I’d have you eating your ego
I’d make you pocket your pride
And just as hard as I’d be loving you
You know you’d be loving me harder
That’s why I don’t want to love you.”
