It’s crazy how Airi can sing live and sound just like the recording
Effortlessly!
It's so rare these days!!!
Crazy she just was working at Wendy’s Prior to making it big
Because she can sing.
That's because she can really sing
It’s Jazmine Sullivan and Ashanti singing along to the lyrics for me. Ari did that!! Y’all support the record instead of saying she’s underrated. Stream, call your local radio station, buy the single!
@TallDC.....☝️☝️☝️👏💯💯
Absolutely
This comment is the one.....all facts.......heyyyyyyyy TallDC!!! ;)
Straight facts!!
Yes, bc my head will pop if ONE MO person says that again when WE have the power, lmbo...geez...
She was nervous for sure. And still her vocals were flawless.
Maxwell was in the audience..the afro alone will make anyone nervous
Glad someone else noticed the vocals were a lil off.. still good but you could tell she was nervous too
I couldn’t tell she was nervous
I wish they had gave her a mic stand. She could have worked all around it. I think it would have helped things flow but she rocked it ❤️❤️
@@LilReg5840 😂😂 yo, what!? 😆
She served bawdy,skin,face,hair and most importantly vocals🥰
Statuesque!
J. Cole hit the jackpot for signing her and it was the best thing that’s ever happened to her
Ohhhhhh I didn’t know he signed her?
@@jaymckinney5289 yeah, she was signed back in 2015
J Cole is the goat ❤️I love him so much
BIG BIG BIGGGG FACTS !
I didn’t know that .! I knew I was in love with him for a reason lol
Give Ari Lennox an AllState commercial because R&B is in good hands with her a part of it
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Say it again for the folks in the back!!
If they book her imma need them to give you a 10% management fee
Why did the all state commercial ad come on before this video😂
Lol you ain’t lying
I love how this isn’t an over the top performance. She’s giving presence with her vocals.
She was under pressure not to go Stallion.
She needed sum pressure before she went out their she would have sung it way differently
Naa that song needed fire not shy she was nervous u can tell I hope she performs it again somewhere else and bring it...I was waiting for her to at least move 😅😅but I get it she was nervous 💗
Reincarnated diva from the 80’s, sexy, intelligent and classy. Yezzzz!
Yesssss!!!
Her performance was on point, but Don't act like yall don't see them, dancers. They did that.
Yesssss
Yessss lawd🔥
I'm saying. I wish she would of done some of the choreo it would've been cute
Those dancers are on point
Periodddd
The vocals, the look, she didn’t even have to move and still gave a perfect performance 👏🏾❤️ love it😍
Mariah Don't move either
This! I don't need a full 8 count. I need the mic on and that it was! Vocals were top tier!
The audience is like YESSSS FINALLY REAL MUSIC REAL SOUNDS LIVE VOICE..
@@talldc fr though! I need the vocals to give and that she did!
@@ms.c7180 yes! Finally someone who actually sounds better live❤️
She don’t need to dance. She commands attention. Love her.
I love all the smiling faces in the audience.
Yes, me, too!!! ❤❤❤😁😁😁
You don’t hear many artists that can sing their music live. Ari did that. ❤️😭
Who are you listening to/watching? Lol.
If not, that's a shame. It's literally their only job. lol
Queen Naija does that all the time.. you sleep😩
Her and summer sound exactly like their tracks fr I loveeee it
Y'all are laziest fans of genre I've ever seen. So much talent and y'all stay letting radio control y'all
She looked amazing and sounded even better
@@debrajames3865 u can’t read…? It says on the tile ? Come on bruh
@@amanijackson8002 right...lol🤣😅😂 I can't with y'all today...
Yes her legs are everything!!!!
@@amanijackson8002 A fool is a fool all day. Ignorance is Ignorance any way you slice it. At the end of the day, I came across this boring 😴 chick and wondered who is she?.
I love how She performed with such class without doing all that grinding. She definitely executed the assignment. Kudos and Much Success to her. Love this song.
Love the class
Class where? She’s singing in a négligée see-through
@@shealuvm lol that's what im saying. i want a show! it's okay to be sexy, but entertain me!
@@shealuvm Well this was a well done sexy performance, not too much going on in terms of vulgarity and raunchy acts.
CLASSY ?
half naked is classy, WOW
The audience wasn’t giving what needed to be GAVE
SHE KILLED THIS 🙅🏾♀️🙌🏾😍
She sounds amazing 🤩
She looked beautiful 🌹🌹🌹
Yes ma’am 💨👸🏾🧚🏾♀️
I think people are very intimidated by beautiful, chocolate, and talented woman. They are like dare in headlights.
Ari Lennox got that ole school Rnb vibe bout her.. and I’m here for All of it!! 🔥🔥🔥🌬Pressure bby!!
me too!
Yes, that part makes her such a pleasure to listen to, she has that nostalgic feel
She did that....I love that song....with that jam, she gives me a little Erykah Badu and Tweet flavor!!!🥰
Yessssssssssss exactly this!
I agree!
Yassss good DNA yasss
Saweetie hosted a talk room audio with Ari and Erykah Badu about manifesting and it was good as hell.
I definitely think that a lot of young women would appreciate that conversation.
@@jenisewashington336 Link to it please if you have it
Love this. She’s so good. I want to point out something though...Those background singers were rocking it all night! They sung with everyone and knew all the words and harmonies. That is a true talent.
One time for the BG! 💯
@Kendrick Mthey are husband and wife duo Raii and Whitney Smith. You should check out their music also.... They are phenomenal vocalists. Can sound like anybody. 👍🏾
Her stage presence was perfect, she didn't need to be extra, the outfit her body and the lyrics of the song had me engaged and I'm straight, she kept it sexy.
💯
100000000%
I’m so glad that R&B is flourishing again. Real singers who can Sang live! Amazing performance Ari!
Facts!
That's what I've been saying even the R&B british singers are coming hard too
💯
This pressure song is 60's vibe all day. That's how they sung back in tha day. Diana Ross and the Supreme music.
It never fell off. It’s just didn’t chart as well
Why do y’all want her to dance so badly? Lol I know she did in the music video, but all I ever need is her amazing vocals. Some of the greatest voices of all time never moved an inch on stage lol. Some did. But she’s a vocalist.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾‼️
Because they are so uses ro seeing people shaking it high and low.
I don’t think people care whether she dances but it’s clear she’s uncomfortable and or nervous.
I don't think ppl are saying she has to dance. This isn't a slow ballad and standing in one spot with one stance doesn't fit this specific song about applying pressure.... It made her look awkward. If you look at her BMO live performance @ Black Girls Rock she didn't dance but she moved around and matched the energy of the song.
@@GoddessV_ yea, this is a new song maybe she’s still getting used to it. It’s a little more upbeat than her others. I think she still did good though.
I don't care what folks are saying. I want to hear VOCALS, that are steady on point. All that dancing, moving be messy. Give me an ARI artist anyway. HER vocals did not disappoint nor did her performance. I want her to continue to be DIFFERENT... I love ❤ it
I totally agree.
Ari looks like Kandi Buruss. So beautiful and classy. 😍
Yes Ari, apply that pressure. My good sis was nervous but she killed the looks and vocals as always. Was waiting on her to shake that mic 🎤 like a tambourine 😆
She was nervous ? Where ?? I don’t see anything that says nerves
@@ryanamari2233 Well this is the only performance of Ari where she stands in one place. As she said herself she was focused on getting her notes right. Check her other performances of pressure (live) and see the difference.
@@Gloria.J Ok that makes sense. Her standing in one spot def caught me off guard. But I figured she didn't move around because of the outfit and she didn't want to risk tripping over her clothes
She couldn't breathe with that corset on. Why dey do my boo like dat? She still did beautifully.
Yeah I could see the nervousness...❤❤
She is HOT CHOCOLATE and this performance PROVES IT!! Love this song you ROCK ARI!!
SHE KNEW THE ASSIGNMENT..AND COMPLETED IT..HAD ALL THE MEN..MESMERIZED
She can really sing..that's y I love her talent
She has such a old church house, soft but powerful,raspy voice I love her style and how she carries herself!🙌🏾💯
@Joey G Productions I said wtf I said..byeee✌🏾
Same ! Finally they giving artists who have actual talent a chance and not just because they have a “image” ie cardi b
I just think she meant she had a old school voice that we don’t hear as much anymore .
She's a watered down Fantasia to me but a good watered down, I'll drink.
Ari Lennox looks so gorgeous!& her voice is on point.
When you can SANG you dont have to dance!!!! Bring it ARI
This woman is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 in EVERYTHING! BBL’s could never!!! Serve authentic Black GORGEOUSNESS!!!
The band for this entire award show was NASTY!! 🔥🔥
I noticed that also. It made the sound so much better.
Yesss! And you should have way more likes for this comment!
So True
I need this outfit for my wedding night
💯 It's so beautiful
Make your man go crazy !!!!
Yessss!! 🥰
Yes her stylist is the truth!
💯 on the creative vibes
She did THAT! The backup dancers were on point!!
Definitely Best Top Three performances from that night!
Ari is a legend in the making 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I was looking for this comment. I could hardly focus on Ari's singing because those background dancers were kinda lit, especially the one on the left.
Where my people at who been riding with Ari since her early early CZcams singing in her bedroom days?!?!? So proud of her. 💜💜💜
OMG!! I literally tell people this all the time like first of all, she’s been grinding for YEARS! I’ve been rockin with her and Durand Bernarr since the beginning of CZcams days!
She's so underrated
She isssss
Very underrated!
How is she underrated and she is on the Soul Train Awards, been on the BET Awards, her music get played on the radio and so forth? 🤣🤣 An underrated artist don’t have all that.
@@msbeautyboss3784 I've never heard her music on the radio 🤷🏻♀️
@@msbeautyboss3784 also soul/r&b isn’t mainstream and especially if you’re a black artist is definitely isn’t mainstream hence underrated
OUR WOMEN ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ON THE PLANET .
The background singing chick is SAAAAAANGIN'‼️🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I love Ari too! They all did amazing but I kept keeping her throughout the whole performance.
That's THE Raii and Whitney Smith... legendary background vocalist! They can sound like anybody.... Just amazing voices! I study them heavily! 🔥
Her background and band isn't getting enough recognition my gawd they are anointed
J. Cole might be smiling from ear to ear right now to see his dreamville’s First Lady tear the show down
Just replayed this for the, mmm, 20th time? Yeaa.. anybody else?
Ari and Summer need to go on and release a joint project. Since listening to Unloyal, it's a must.
All I have to say is her vocals are impeccable and this was a very classy grown folk performance.
She sounded great and looked even better 🔥
These performances are awesome whoever put this whole show together needs a raise and a new Cadillac
True. How people forget the guys behind the production etc
😆 🎶Oh, I got me a Cadillac, Cadillac, Cadillac
I absolutely agree. The entire show was excellent.
🤣🤣
Production was impeccable!!
Those backup dancers were getting their whole ENTIRE life
You ain't lying bruh
There is skill in singing the song as written that a lot of ppl lack bc they record in segments over a span of time… to remember the lyrics and stay on key and beat is a skill that Ari Lennox does so well…
Whewwww her voice was fuckn hitting babyyy I felt every note ! Yesssss she stood right there and still understood the assignment!!! Yessss 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
She was pitch perfect and the performance and the look was just simply everything,she was flawless👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾
💯🙌🏾❤️
@Joey G Productions you are salty af stop jamming everyone up about something you know nothing about and that’s what Ari’s team is providing her! Cl🤡
She looks amazing
She has this natural sexiness about herself
Great vocal control ! I’m so glad we have Ari Lennox in R&B ! She’s so needed & her voice & music is so soulful ❤️✨
Now see you can perform and be classy without being NAKED AND HER BACKUP DANCERS ARE COVERED TOO YESSS LADIES YESSSSS❤️❤️❤️
Yes, leave something to our imagination......
She giving that sultry coco butter… Ari stunning as always. Beautiful voice💛✨
Loved this performance; very sexy but not raunchy. She looked and sounded beautiful. Well done Ms. Lennox....well done!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Her voice is everything
Yes, it is!
Ari makes me want to moisturize….. ✨✨
I work at enterprise and one day ari lennox rented a car. When i tell you she is the most kind and humbled celebrity ive ran into i mean that. Super simple and down to earth. Im wishing her more success and prosperity she deserves it
The legs, the glowing skin, the voice… 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Ari Lennox, you came to prove that Black Girls can truly Rock.✌💖🎸
Congratulations Congratulations again to the song writer... Jaylen Josie from Stone Mountain Georgia baby. ...
Tisha and Tichhina are sooo chaotic and i Love it!!!
Ari lookin like a heavenly meal!! Hallelujah! !
I'm just so happy to see artists like Ari back on the scene and representing RnB music in its' truest form. The fact that she gave such a beautiful performance was just icing on the cake.
Literally sounds just like the record! So goooood!
It's because Ari is a real singer. No auto tune there baby!! 👏🏾🙏🏽💯
She sounded soooo good! 💖 her mic is on!🔥🔥
Everyone in the audience bobbing their heads and I'm at home doing the same. 🔥🔥🔥
THATS WHAT I CALL BLACK GIRL MAGIC
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Now, I could see this young lady as lady of soul.
Love Ari's voice... so unique
my boo killed this .. VOCALLY phenomenal ! sounded JUST like the track .. and looked BEAUTIFUL while doing such 🤎🤎
She so smooth. Wow real R&B music. She is doing the dam thing.
Yessss Jaylen Josie wrote that song pressure my niece..
Audience was wack to me she was coo with it her swag was refreshing
The audience was singing along and enjoying her vibe🥰
She was classy with it her vocals are incredible and spoke for themselves definitely underrated💯💪🏾🔥🥰
She gave me chills
When you deliver vocals like that you 👏🏾 can👏🏾 stand 👏🏾 still and perform!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love her she just needs to embrace her song/stage presence more cause the crowd already feeling it but her walking around and feeling super sexy like in her video would’ve set the tone sooo good.
Other than that she was great!
Defo understand but this what I live about soul/r&b singers calm laidback and relaxed such a vibe
I agree she seems uncomfortable when she wears these type of clothes it doesnt match her natural personality. The outfit is over shining her talent a little bit. She so dope she just need to be herself.
@@tenmusicpage right! Her being in a nice white Diana Ross gown with fur would’ve been outstanding!! This outfit didn’t fit the vibe tbh & yes! It does match her personality though!
@@Wisdomkeyz562 I think she just need a dope stylist that will give her sexy but classic at the same time but very youthful so she can feel comfortable to move around more!
@@tenmusicpage agreed!!
She had the best album I can’t believe she didn’t win.
Just damn! Beautiful! She makes an O.G. proud.
Ari you did not have to snatch our edges like this!!! I love you!
Ari's performance was amazing. She looks and sounds so good.
Yes, it was.
@@dezmondharris3644❤
She the best of her competition out today. Her background singers are the best for her to sing with. They assist in making her shine!
Love this. Ari Lennox can sing.
She's absolutely gorgeous and talented
Never seen this performance, and I'm so glad my ears and eyes were blessed with this HERE!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
Her skin is glowing...Simply flawless. LITERALLY...
She sound so good. Raw talent.
YES!!! anything JD puts a stamp on is a success & she delivered!! ready to see so much more from Ari
Excuse Me ☝️ y’all in the audience give up for for the beautiful chocolate 🍫 styles of miss ari Lennox she did that 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Just an amazing singer with soul!
I couldn't even complain about her not dancing cuz vocals were great she sound the same live it was just incredible to hear her sing
Everything bout this Queen. The skin, givin. The classy bad gyal style , givin. The spiciness, givin . The soothing vocals, givin. Most of all the beauty, givvviiinn. 💕😍🔥👸🏾👑R and B definitely in Great hands with this Rose 🌹 being apart of it.

I just love Ari😍😍😍
Yes, me, too😍😍😍
The pressure was definitely applied that night!!
For all that don’t know, she sampled Shirley Brown’s “Blessed is the Woman”. Great song and I think she used it well 🔥🔥
She paid homage to her in the music video as well
thanks for this I love all kinds of music but I had no idea this was a sample..
Best score son ever 🎉 hit it baby 😂
Voice control!!!!!😍😍😍
Her authenticity is astonishing
