😢me neither..Rest well Dexter King Dr King

[@missj5564]

This song sounds as good as when it came out almost 33 years ago.

[@MC-sj2ji]

Whitney Houstons voice is just CLEAN & BEAUTIFUL. Stephanie Mills is SO underrated. Love her voice as well. PRINCE (GOAT) funded this video but wanted no press or shine for it.

[@modeltstewart]

This never gets old...I listen to it every MLK Day for sure and whenever I need uplifting....thank you God for MLK Jr.💜

[@chriscoyne9717]

Back when so many talented female vocalists.

[@johnnyfonk999]

Cindy Lauper was not a talented vocalist

This brought back some really good memories. Wish I could turn back time to 1986 ❤️

[@damienchance7442]

I was thinking about that the same thing

[@stacieharris5640]

Oh man, life and music was sooooooo wonderful back then

[@percybland256]

BEAUTIFUL TIMES!!!

[@brandonweatherford2843]

I was 3! The 90s was amazing and the nation was really coming together for the first time in a positive way. Remember the media would always have positive things about peace and togetherness even if the news reported negative stuff that matters but it was always backed up with powerful positive things. It's really sad that is not the case today. Pray for the nation and the world 🌍 thank you Dr. King 👑

[@Sugastack]

I always loved this song!! January 18, 2021 Happy Birthday to Dr. King. It's sad how 34 years later we're still dealing with a lot of the same injustices. I'm sure Dr. King would be saddened, disappointed and upset to see the state of the world today. If everyone in the world would be part of the change they're wanting to see this world would be peaceful. In order for the murder, racism, stealing, illegal drug use, gang violence, sex-trafficking, molestation, raping, pedophilia, gossiping, lying, manipulation etc... to end all those partaking in the acts would need to immediately stop. All believers in the world please continue to wholeheartedly pray for change. I know that a lot more has to come to fruition before Our Heavenly Father returns. I'm ready for his return!!

[@crenshawblaster3982]

This was January 86. the lush chimes and bass of DX7 is all over the song, no sight of autotune no mumble rap no weird looking bozos! All of the performers look fresh and in harmony here, they all had class! Happy Heavenly Birthday Dr. King ! RIP Whitney, The Ivory Queen, The Human Beatbox, Jam Master Jay, Prince Markie Dee, Ecstasy...

[@Vejur9000]

Just one of the many iconic moments… When Whitney Houston forgot she was human. Vocally speaking, this is an archangel… Worthy of leading the choirs of Heaven, is this one.

[@fatimacurry5844]

Happy MLK Day 2023🎉! Make sure you all share this classic with your young children, nieces, nephews, etc. We have to keep the spirit ALIVE!

[@traceyhudson306]

I was just a year old when he was slain. Born Dec. 4, 1967. I was 18 yrs. old when they did the video, nothing but great music in history.

Just because there is a special day to celebrate someones contributions or Birthdays it doesn't mean we cannot carry them with us all the time.

[@shalay09]

Every time I hear this song it takes me back to when I was little. Seeing the video on MTV, known we were not going to school on this day. Memories!

On this MLK Jr. Day, in 2022, this song is still as good as is was back when it was released.

[@keefed1284]

interesting how Prince didn't like Rap at that time but he paid for the video wow... he was so hush-hush about the contribution

[@letthetrumpetsound7893]

Maybe he knew who was controlling it and the direction it was headed 🤔

[@ericw4101]

I didn't even know Prince paid for this video. I learn something new every day.

[@StudioBKQBHLAFM]

From what I understand Prince even helped fund the making of Krush Groove. He even choreographed Shiele E's first number in the movie as well.

[@nenedingle6100]

Rest Well Dexter King😢🤲🏾 Dr Martin Luther King

[@QueenMo40]

I was a freshman in HS when this song came out. It's not about holding Dr. King higher than God it about showing the love he had for all people no matter what race or culture. The love that was given from God to Dr. King. Dr. King is/was a gift to the entire world. May the dream he desired for his children and all of us still remain alive.

[@17earthsister]

Love it!
