    @TheTwerkEthicShow this was Luther's tribute and apology to the NAACP honoree Dionne Warwick. She and Luther had been having a public disagreement and he sang her song to her as a tribute and apology which she clearly accepts in the end.
    Btw, #funfact Park Hyo-Shin who you reacted to recently, was hugely influenced by Luther Vandross and he does a pretty amazing cover of Luther's arrangement of "Superstar".

    Did you know Dionne Warwick originally sung that song in the 60's? It was written by Burt Bacharach, & I forgot his partner, but it was them that wrote it. I think the 19th NAACP Awards were sometime in the 90's. Well, I happen to think Luther Van Dross sung it better than Dionne Warwick. But, you got to credit, where credit is DUE!!!
