she was an incredibly talented singer but I have heard and I don't know if this is true.....the image the label originally projected of her being this nice girl next door 'could have been Miss America' type thing was not the reality.

so blaming all the drugs on Bobby might not be totally accurate/

she was pretty street smart herself and if you've ever heard her talk (even in early interviews when she was un-coached with no "stock" answers......she sounds more like she's from the hood, then a miracle mile where songs grew on trees.

so you never know...drugs and alcohol might have been in the mix since back when she was a teen.
