Knight recorded hits through the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s with her family group Gladys Knight & the Pips, which included her brother Merald "Bubba" Knight and cousins William Guest and Edward Patten. She has won seven Grammy Awards (four as a solo artist and three with the Pips),[1] and is often referred to as the "Empress of Soul"

And now just because they made those decisions and everything turned out bad, it falls on the sister who has been doing everything right. That's honestly not fair. She's right.

I swear this is one of Tyler’s most underrated movies and such a star-making role for Taraji! No serious, I think this is when people really started to pay attention to her even though she been around for years before this movie. This movie was very successful in its own right but too bad this wasn’t a hugely mainstream movie because if it was then I truly believe that it would have have scored Taraji another Oscar nomination and more big roles. I just can’t praise I Can Do Bad enough because Taraji is so iconic here and that was reason enough for me to believe that she is such a talented and worthy actress, which also made The Color Purple drama from last year so frustrating to witness.

I'm glad this one made you guys emotional one minute and laugh the next. Out of all of TP's films, this is the closest to his stage plays. Musical numbers with incredible voices mixed with Madea going on biblical rants (or just funny rants in general) or shooting up the stage trying to aim at the one-dimensional villain, lmao. You guys are really missing out! "I Can Do Bad All By Myself" was actually his first stage play that brought him into mainstream. And the story differs greatly from this film but still a great one on its own. As far as emotional depth in the TP film world, "Daddy's Little Girls" with Idris Elba, Gabrielle Union and Tasha Smith would make the perfect next watch. If you want more funny characters and explore Madea's family tree, "Meet The Browns" is a well-rounded film. Your pick!

I'm blowned away of how many if OUR LIVING LEGENDS that y'all don't recognize or know.

[@panashe5268]

It’s not a Madea film but Tyler Perry wrote and directed “Temptations: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor” and I’m hoping you guys react to it. The Tyler Perry films without Madea are his best rated films. That and “Acrimony” are both great films

Gladys Knight is the lady name that was singing. It was her real voice. Song through the 1960’s through 80’s in a group Gladys Knight and the Pips. She’s currently 80

[@KeishaCharmaine]

Gladys Knight is a legend.

btw at 32:02 the Eve reference she is a 90's rapper that has tattoos of two paws on her chest. She the girl who also made the classic song "who's that girl". She also played in movies like Barbershop with Ice Cube and Cedric the entertainer

On your Tyler Perry / Madea journey, make sure to check out Madea Family Funeral and Daddy's Little Girls

12:23 and because she was actually concerned for their safety. I think that's what that was alluding to. Not just a joke about them keeping her up, but that she likely didn't feel comfortable going to sleep while those kids were outside with some stranger.

I will say it again...Tyler Perrys Temptations: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor and Daddy's Little Girls

[@iamdragonetta]

My favorite duo: Jaby and Michael!!! ❤ I can't wait to watch this with you!

[@VibrantVenus]

Thank you so much again for taking the time to react to all of Tyler's previous works. It feels very nostalgic cuz I remember when all these films originally came out, I was still in high school.😅

[@terrancejovan4825]

That indeed is her actual voice. That is the legendary Gladys Knight. And the pastor that came to the house to visit Taraj to tell her about the handyman is Legendary Singer and pastor Marvin Winans and that is also his voice.

[@ukiyovrse]

Omg, I was waiting for this reaction!

[@JayTee22]

I swear i was so bored nothing to watch clicking stuff and clicking off. Scrolled through yall videos then BOOM!! I order my chick fil a and here yall go! Yaaayyyyy

[@drbabydoll755]

No guys, that wasn't her singing in the opening...that's the voice of Cheryl Pepsii Riley, who's in a bunch of Tyler Perry plays. She was the jazz singer at the function Charles & Helen attended in Diary Of A Mad Black Woman (so you can see what she looks like, AND reminisce over Orlando 😅); she also provided the mom's singing voice in the church scene. BTW, the older woman singing in the club is an R & B legend, Ms Gladys Knight & she WAS really singing because she's been doing it most of her life. Oh, & the "charismatic" preacher is an actual preacher Marvin Winans, who was a member of the gospel group The Winans,n older brother to BeBe & CeCe Winas.

Undercover Brother and more Madea please! I forgot how much I love these movies.

[@TawnyRoyal]

OMG THEY WOULD LOVE UNDERCOVER BROTHER, REELREJECTS NEED TO WATCH IT TOO

[@aaliyahcoly9]

The guy on the red side it’s his laugh for me 😂😂😂

[@TheMyersFamilyy]

you both are so great at breaking down the movie and truly understanding what the movie wanted to portray. great job guys !!

[@artbylisa1031]

Crazy thing is that wasn't even Taraji singing throughout the movie. It's actually Cheryl Pepsii Riley, another amazing actress and singer that Tyler Perry has had in his movies and plays. Taraji's just that good though that she makes you believe it's actually her singing
