Gospel/Christian artists tweeting Whitney Houston

Whit­ney Hous­ton cut her teeth as a Gospel singer, back­ing up her moth­er, Gospel singer Cis­sy Hous­ton. Whit­ney’s voice at her peak was pow­er­ful yet seemed effort­less. The iso­lat­ed voice track tweet­ed by Matt Maher is incred­i­ble, and check out the video of Whit­ney at the Gram­mys tweet­ed by San­di Pat­ty (above).

“Cried myself thru LAX but am com­posed enough now to say that Whit­ney was my musi­cal hero grow­ing up. I have faith she now rests in Peace.” and “Oh my gosh. Land­ed in LA & had over 20 texts telling me hor­ri­ble news. Say it isn’t true. #Whit­ney­Hous­ton” — @mandisaofficial

“As a young girl, I remem­ber 1st time I ever stood in a stu­dio. What was that 1st song I record­ed? Whit­ney Hous­ton’s Great­est Love Of All” and “As I’m stand­ing on red car­pet for a pre-Gram­my par­ty, I learn that 1 of my great­est musi­cal influ­ences has died. Hard to smile.” @nataliegrant
