“You’ve got to learn to leave the table when love’s no longer being served.” – Nina Simone

Omg her voice is amazing
Nina Simone is what Maya Angelou meant when she said phenomenal woman. I admire her so much and I honestly believes she embodies that ❤
I enjoyed this video about Nina Simone. The most sad betrayal of a so called actress Diana Ross playing Billie Holiday . That was just awful.
If ever we needed
NINA SIMONE,
We need her Now!! ❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾
This is one of the most beautifulest rooster I've seen that's authentic and talented if you didn't know her music you would have to learn it. The favorite one of mines I put a spell on you and damn Alabama. Many men don't know how to treat a gorgeous lady this is wrong. R.i.p. Nina Simone 💯🥰🧧🐇🎎🐇💎💎💎📺📽️💯‼️
Nino clearly born male
“I put a spell on you “ is my favorite song from Nina Simone💜💜💜
The difference between Zoe and Vanessa is that Zoe claims that she is not black while Vanessa does. Anyways as always this was a lovely video. Your the best 🇭🇹
LOVE WHAT YOU DO.
I love Nina Simone, always have! Her voice is so beautifully haunting. There's nobody that sounds like her. But it pisses me off that people in Hollywood put the crazy or diva label on her, because she was outspoken and told the truth. It's sad about the relationship between her and her daughter though. All of that anger directed towards a child, is traumatizing.
"Unknown"? I thought her mental health issues were pretty well documented. 🤔
I'm a huge fan, so maybe I just assumed people know the things I know about her.
Nina deserves a bioSERIES to really deliver what she represented in American history. And Viola Davis to star is a no-brainer.
The Thumbnail 😻😻😻
Thank you so much Karine for this video. I have been wanting to know about her, Nina Simone, and this was informative.
JLo, playing Selena, is as crass.
Ty, great info
I love me some Ms. Simone! What a talented, brilliant, woman and entertainer. An activist for color and sex, she was just the entire package. So much talent, one human being.
My gramps always said there is a fine line between genius and mental issues.
This really did her justice. Really enjoyed it, thank you!!
All of her husbands are leeches and I feel so sorry for this woman. Would we present as anger was frustration of the racism and the misogyny during the time. Then her last husband gave her a drug addiction.
Love her! Great video! One thing , Zoe wasn't offered a role she was a producer and STANS Nina. That's lost in the narrative. It's unfair how she was blackballed. She should've just stayed brown skin for the role ,but I guess she wanted to be authentic. I feel people issues was that she is Caribbean and didn't want a non black American playing the role. No one had a problem when Zoe played an African American majorette in Drumline. Even Wendy Willaums in her ignorance said lupita Nyongo, but she is Mexican with a Kenyan background. I think thr criticism was colorist and ignorant.
I can see michaela coel playing her, as people have mentioned before. Nina Simone is very talented woman, wished some things where different for her.
She was a beautiful woman with such an elegant bone structure
So you basically made a video book report of everything you've seen on YouTube. This is the lamest attempt to get likes ever! You sound half witted and uneducated. The movie you criticized about rewriting history was more factual than this video. LAME
Nina Simone was the just about the only true activist on the days that most celebrities didn't risk their contracts Nina couldn't be silence and if you think about it you probably had to be mentally ill to risk it all..like she did but bipolar wasn't discovered as an illness yet on those days..so I don't see how the industry could have deal with it at the time with everything that was going on too… There's not activism today.. if you are become rich it's just a career
I think of Lauryn Hill or Voila Davis should did a biopic of played Nina Simone instead of Zoe Saldana.
Rip to The great Eunice Waymond so happy you made a video for her I pray to carry on her elegant style soul such an amazing impact on me and the culture especially when it comes to making amazing music to stand by thank you for this video goddess and forever live and legend a icon Nina Simone 🙌🏾☀️🫶🏾🐘⭐️
Love the break downs:)Please do a break down on Mahaila Jackson( the woman who famously told MLK to tell them about the dream) 1st gospel star to sell 2 million and the woman helped raise Ms queen of soul💐💐👑💐👑👑💐
Can you please do Miriam Makeba. Thanks!
Vanessa does look more like Hazel Scott than Zoë Saldanna looks like Nina Somone.
Thanks for keeping us updated Our government has no idea how people are struggling right now, I will forever appreciate Mr Noah Gifford You’ve helped me a lots With your advices imagine investing £1000 and receiving £10,250
What's wrong with people. I am not violent and I don't deal with narracists and bullies. Please leave the Nazies alone. They will be just fine and they are not bothering anyone. Ok. It's cold and I'm sleepy. 😴 😆
My favorite by Nina is Baltimore.
It’s funny to me that folk want an actor to look like someone their playing…it’s acting. -it’s moot point to me.
You said…the audacity.
Wow.
Y’all need to rethink these things. Big big time.
The wide dent arch the far apart eyes the straight across clavicles the prominent brow ridge the Adams apple the sloping forehead the deep set eyes w large skull ….
She was a very talented woman.
Is it okay if you could one day discuss Selena Quintanilla, the QUEEN of TEJANO music??
Zoe will forever depend on Avatar movies. She sucks white ppls butt so she'll unfortunately be ok.
Y’all!!! Not to sound cliché…. But when I tell you, Nina is such an unapologetic black woman! Baby! I began researching years ago. This woman was something serious ❤❤❤
Could be worse Beyonce played Etta James
