Whitney Houston - general discussion

Whitney Houston‘s last known recording, ‘Celebrate’ ft. Jordin Sparks, is a happy and uplifting track recorded shortly before her passing in February.

The R. Kelly-produced song was recorded for her upcoming movie ‘Sparkle’, expected in cinemas in August.

Whitney's duet with Jordin Sparks wasn't the only track Houston recorded for the Sparkle soundtrack. The compilation, due 31st July, features gospel hymn 'His Eye Is On The Sparrow' sung by the late diva.

The soundtrack also features music from her co-stars Jordin Sparks, Cee Lo Green, and Goapele.

Never Give Up is featured on Whitney Houston's new best of compilation. I presume this track was recorded for her last album, I Look To You, but didn't make the cut.

The lyrics are a bit cheesy.

Whitney Houston's brother admits introducing the pop star to drugs in an interview with Oprah Winfrey for her Next Chapter series.

Whitney's mother, Cissy Houston also speaks to Oprah about the rumours Whitney has a relationship with her then-assistant Robyn.
