142: Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown & Robyn Crawford
It’s FINALLY time for another relationship series!
In the first of many episodes to come (don’t ask exactly how many), Troy will be exploring the complicated politics of Whitney Houston’s relationships with her husband, Bobby Brown and her life partner, Robyn Crawford.
He starts by taking a look back on Whitney’s life as the church-going daughter of Gospel legend, Cissy Houston, in Newark. He also dissects her introduction to drugs at an early age, how she and Robyn came to be and why race played such a massive role in her introduction as the worlds first black, female pop icon.
