We’re preparing to drop a whole new season this spring. In the meantime, we want to make sure you’ve had a chance to hear some of our all-time favorite episodes. Like this one, about Whitney Houston.
It’s been nine years since Ms. Houston died. She was one of the biggest pop stars of her time, but she’s often remembered as a tragic figure. In this episode, we argue that her music is much more important than any of the scandals. When we listen to some of her best performances, we remind ourselves who we actually lost: the greatest singer of the rock ’n’ roll era.
About Still Processing
If you’re new to the show, Still Processing is about culture in the broadest sense. That means television, film, books, music — but also race, the culture of work, dating, the internet and how those all fit together. Join Wesley Morris and Jenna Wortham as they work it out on Thursdays.
This episode was originally produced in 2017 by Jenna Weiss-Berman, Henry Molofsky, Rikki Novetsky and Max Linksy from Pineapple Street Media, with editorial oversight from Sasha Weiss, Lisa Tobin and Samantha Henig. It was updated in 2021 by the producer Diana Nyugen, editor Sara Sarasohn and engineer Marion Lozano. Our theme music is by Kindness. It’s called “World Restart,” from the album “Otherness.”
Wesley Morris is a critic at large. He was awarded the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for his criticism while at the Boston Globe. He has also worked at Grantland, The San Francisco Chronicle and The San Francisco Examiner. Follow Wesley on Twitter: @wesley_morris
