    This is one of Faith's best live performances. Her voice was on point and well rehearsed.

    Someone said it recently but R&B just hasn't been the same since we took the church out of it! We have a few girls still, but the color and character you learn from church singing produced gems like Faith! Her voice cuts through so many we hear today because its so unique and anointed.

    • @staceycheatom4427
      @staceycheatom4427 Před rokem +19

      It's true. Most of the singers from back in the day came from the church, sang in the choir. When people stopped going to church, you saw the talent dwindle.

    • @mch-aka007
      @mch-aka007 Před rokem +16

      Absolutely agree! Growing up singing in church gives the voice depth, range, color, character, & emotion. Some argue this, but I also think if done PROPERLY, it gives us a strength and longevity to sing without getting tired so fast.

  • @tandrahill302

    Her word pronunciation is off the chain, she's one of my favorites for that. That church background gives way to that emotional factor in her singing. I love her!!

    She sounded ahhhhhmazing here.. but that bridge!!! SHE KILLED IT!!! And lets not forget how she murdered on the Masked Singer. Even with a huskier and and raspier sound. I'll admit, while I loved her music and her unique voice back in the day, I think I slept on her vocally because I just hadn't seen much of her live. But this performance opened my eyes FULLY and then to see how she bodied TMS. Sheesh!

    Faith Evans is a true talent and a gem. She needs more than her flowers, she needs to have as many accolades as MJB or even more. She is so underrated and so populous at the same time. She will stay relevant!!! I hope she is blessed with more Grammys from The Recording Academy 🙏🏽 💓 ✨️.

      NOT ON THE BEST DAY OF HER LIFE, RESPECTFULLY. SHE'S MORE TALENTED VOCALLY THAN MARY. AND A DECENT WRITER, BUT THERE ARE LEVELS. MARY IS A STAR. THERE'S TANGIBLES AND INTANGIBLES. FAITH HAS LOOKED UNCOMFORTABLE AND AWKWARD ON STAGE FOR OVER 25 YRS. SHE DOESN'T COMMAND AND LACKS PRESENCE. SHE STRUGGLED WITH HER WEIGHT AND NEVER OWNED IT. ALL THESE THINGS PLUS MORE WILL NEVER ALLOW HER TO BE ON THE LEVEL OF SOMEONE LIKE MJB, RESPECTFULLY.
