For those of us who have social anxiety, we know how insanely hard that was for her. Good job Summer 👏
For sure!
Yes!!! I wish people would understand this
Right! Omg I would have been trembling the whole time.
Exactly
@@Co33coco you e. . She ppee pop pop r loop
Mannnn that song is everything. Summer looks like she’s getting a bit more comfortable on stage. She did a great job and those vocals were so soothing.
😊👍🏿❣️
She just super comfortable with Ari too I’m sure it’s calming her anxiety
Yessss! I was so pleased to see her grace a stage in front of an audience again. I know that can't be the easiest thing to do, but she looked & sounded beautiful. Loved the performance from her & Ari!!
The way she sang was perfect for the song and performance like ion give a bleep
Getting comfortable.
Summer came out giving amazing live performances.
What be wrong with y’all.
There are no lukewarm/mediocre Summer Walker Live Performances.
She has always sounded amazing.
You’re confusing her with Rihanna.
😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑
This sounds better than the studio version 😩 Summer is so talented
You are fine .. are you single.
Love her!
Boi you are foin
FACTZ
On god it do
The way Summer's voice got stronger with Ari on stage. Yes more of this please.
YES 😩🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Why she always depressed in her songs??
@Why Women Hate My Foreskin lmao
Black Girl Magic
@@whywomenhatemyforeskin1412 Thats what real artistry is. Evoking your real emotion in your songs
Y’all stop saying she looks nervous. She probably was! So proud of her growth and the baby steps she’s taking to overcome her anxiety. They killed this!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
I think it adds to her ; just performing in her element ; no extras ; just her and the mic ; she’s staying true to herself , her personality .. no gimmicks , I love it
Lol you're saying she was nervous but people should stop saying she looks nervous🤦🏾♀️ wish we would stop babying people hey. She did great but has room to do better- if she wants to, most of us are used to her like this. People are too sensitive these days man
Is she the one with the issue of crowds or something like that?
@@AndreaClinton yes.
Right. Say this!!! 😊😌I’m so happy for her.
The fact they performed this live is an accomplishment in itself. Go awf ladies.
Aaawwwwffff...lol all the way awf!!
Lol, why do you say that?
@@FAFash-wo9yg alot.of people can't perfome live! They get on stage and sound nothing like the album.but these queens did the damn thang!!!!!
Go awf??? When did they go awf? Chaka Khan, Fantasia, Faith Evans & The Clark Sisters go awf. Amongst many other singers. I mean this was nice & chill but they ain't even go awf unless that means sum else these days.
@@inspectorbudget i agree completely! You named some true sangas! For me i just feel these ladies did a good job in an era where nobody can really sing and theres so much autotune i wS shocked! Not say they are in my top 10 but considering the era of music i enjoyed it !
I loved how Ari Lennox matched Summer Walkers energy to make her feel comfortable...this was great.......I been wanting to see this Collab 😍😍
Perfect
I noticed that too! She wanted to go there so bad but she valued and showed love to another black sister! We’ll shine together sis! I love it! 🔥
Absolutely
@@destinydivine3868 and u know she will definitely go there lol
Ari lemos in this música put more soul than Summer
Summer's tone is effortlessly rich. Even if you don't like her, her talent is undeniable. Ari is fire always. This was everything!
Summer barely open her mouth & lovely sounds flow out. I’m just realizing how effortlessly good she doingz and yes Ari is just *muah*
Summer can really sing
I was mesmerized..I love them both ❤
Why would someone not like her
One thing about it- Summer’s band is top tier
Whomever is on the sax killed it
YESSSS
That was not her band, it’s the house band led by Adam Blackstone
It reminds me of how whitney houston would sing "All the man I need" and then her saxophonist would kill it
@@willhoward261 I’m so glad they singing live
Regardless of how uncomfortable people felt Summer was, she still delivered amazing vocals and served a whole a^* look. She makes singing look effortless and Ari came to put the icing on the cake. I love black women coming together to make beautiful music; very inspirational!
You not lying about that
Spot on!
Facts
Does she have anxiety?
@@thankuslay6766 yes she does
They killed this! And let's not forget that saxophone solo was amazing!
I knowww I wonder what kind of saxophone that is!
@@MzLullaby7it's an alto saxophone
Yessss the best part
He played that mf to protection ❤
Anytime a sax 🎷 is in the mix I’m melting! Wish I could find a live sax player in Houston! I’d be there ERRNIGHT!
But Summer Walker is SO EFFORTLESS!!! BRUH! It’s insane how the vocals pour out of her body like water. Her talent is prodigious.
😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@Mragdoll Yeah but I think Kelly Price make better music
Good. Good.
I’m so proud of Summer to go on stage and face her fears despite her anxiety and that’s on bravery ! once she gets comfortable with live performances it’s over with!!
I didn't know she had anxiety. I thought damn they have no stage presence. But you're right.
Yup! With social anxiety even getting up on stage is a big accomplishment
Yup! With social anxiety even getting up on stage is a big accomplishment
She's been doing live performances for 5 years now
@@branflakee4257 😳
She’s has honestly gotten so much better with her anxiety.
Word! She still looks a little uncomfortable but is working it anyway and looks way more relaxed than before.
I wonder what she did for it I've always had anxiety and it gets bad
She was a whole stripper.
@@animezae she is so adorable i camt wait till she blossoms
@@Richard-lh3teshe only did that so she could get out of her shel because of anxiety
I love that Ari gave Summer the “you did it!” Hug at the end!! Continue supporting each other ladies! Great job!
Yes I love to see it❤
This song gives me Badu vibes and then performing it live is just even more top tier ♥️♥️♥️✨✨✨ love to see these two black queens flourish 😌
Ari give me baduism a lil
It's neo soul put it in your genre whatever radio platform and you'll get new artists that's similar Erykah badu's in the mist. You will learn artist up coming and prior to Erica.
High vibration beautiful!!❤️✌🏾
Damn somebody beat me to this comment
For sure she gives Neo Soul vibes
Took the words right out my mouth Badu vibes written all over it
I gotta praise her for this. The Apollo stage is really close to the audience I can’t imagine singing in front of that many people just staring 😭.
I performed at the Apollo b4. With all the lights you can barely even see the ppl.
Half the crowd acting stiff too 😭
@@missj3434 yeah but she already struggles with social anxiety I bet the thought of other artists and fans being there gets to her. But it’s different for everyone so it might affect her a diff way.
@@luvvvv124Definitely..not disagreeing with u..js
@@luvvvv124 Definitely. Not disagreeing with you. Just telling you how the lights at the Apollo are..lol
The sax player tore it TF up! 😍😍😍
Her band is amazing
@@eugeniawilliams8034 lol almost blue my horn away 🤣🤣🤣
Okay !
He really did!🔥🔥🔥
Aint no way in hell we heard the same thing. He kept messing up 🤣. He blew in that horn a Lil too hard at times.
The background singers are so talented!!! Their harmony brings sm light to the performance
Right!!! They don't get enough credit
Summer's vocals are just naturally gifted. No matter how nervous she appears she does her job. I live the "I'm not with the BS/indifferent" vibe they both brought to the performance of this song. Great as usual ladies.
Yes she has a beautiful voice 😍
their voices blend so well together
That's that Aries Power
We need an ep wit just them
@@jadatheeassassin I'm desperate for this. Unloyal on heavy replay
That harmony at the end! 👌🏾
I’m so proud of Summer and how far she has came in her career.
Right she said she hates the stage
Summer is that gurllll
Has come.
@@jslack8973 she played on ppls heart so they would have sympathy for her. Nobody not about to get all that surgery done and they scared of the world
Ari🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love the fact that Ari, didn't upstage summer she is very supportive and professional, she wanted to give summer her moment! Love u both!❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼
Wow I never realized how Rich summers voice was … wasn’t expecting her to sound EXACTLY like the record wow I’m amazed
The fact that she has Social anxiety and still puts on a show is amazing to me amazing job summer !! 😍🥺
I mean she’s not talking to anybody so what’s the deal
@@blessingvalla3084 that's not how social anxiety works
She said she doesn’t get nervous on stage. Literally in an interview
@@blessingvalla3084 doesn’t matter it’s the simple fact of being in front of millions of people can trigger her
@@blessingvalla3084 social anxiety also makes you think everyone around you is judging you even though they’re not.Every little thing you say or do you think people are judging you
Summer walker is so beautiful I see she still dealing with social anxiety but it’s getting better 🥰
Oh, I was wondering, she looked uncomfortable but was still killing it.
so true she is getting better.
Oh that's why she seemed so nervous. I was wondering why she look like her anxiety was kicking in, and her eyes were wide, wandering around. She did good tho
@@mateonelson3862 Please don't come for me. I can understand your comment but it's helpful to read that people are understanding though. I see all love and enjoyment of the performance. It could be worse, no?
She is GORGEOUS
I love Ari’s chocolate outfit. She looks so classy. I have to go check out Summer’s new album. I’ve been into my 80’s & 90’s r&b music too much. Let me check out her album. I looooooove that saxophone session. This was beautiful 🤎
Oh you're gonna love it! ❤
Love it! ❤
Same. And thank saxophone is give me everything!
1:33 for a sax player to convey that amount of emotion 🥵
" boy i am too damn fine, so I'm OUT "
BEST LINE😭❗❗
*Can we show ARI some love in these comments too? She's nobodys sidekick! I love BOTH the girls!!* 💅🏽💅🏽
Ari gonna give your your moneys worth on a feature! Her songs with Jazmine, Queen Nija, and Kianna Lede are all magic 🙌🏾
@@SirCentex *YAAAS GAWID!! I FREAKIN 💚 HER!*
I love me some Ari. She is pure soul.
@@msnos6245 DEFINITELY IS!! 💜
Summer’s voice is so silky I swear. And Ari’s voice is just unique and beautiful. Love this song!
Me, too!
The fact that they sound just like the record. Bravo
She actually did really good, this is a slow jazz feel type of song..her stage presence was literally perfect
I agree
Why don’t they give her a standing mic like back in the day. She’s got the body and looks and vocals. She can just stand there.
Exactly!!!!
Yeah but she does that every time. I like that this performance she is coming out of her shell. She danced a little bit & she will continue to grow with each performance
I liked how she sashayed onto the stage and posed while singing....STUNNING 😍😍
@@kandacegoggins716 yes that was beautiful 😍
That’s what I was thinking
Ari is a soulful gangsta and I’m here for it!!!! Summer was lovely as well! The mix was a match that did very well together! Great job ladies 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤎
I love how Ari came out subtle and accommodated Summer’s anxiety. Queens ✨✨
I love how Ari Lennox was making her feel comfortable on stage they are true friends .
She felt so comfortable because she kno her friend was by her side while she was on the side of the stage ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Exactly like a breathe of fresh air when Ari came out you can tell Ari knows she struggles too so she sang looking at her ❤️❤️ we all need more friends like this
Yesss Ari told her on live she gone make her feel comfortable & I love their relationship 🥺. I’m ready for the future!! Omg
That’s an Aries connection for you ♈️
Summer gone show up. Sing.... & go home. ❤
Period‼️🤣
"I'm just here so I won't get fined"
Lol
😂
😂 very true shes gonna show up and show out quick lol
This band is giving me goosebumps OML❤️
Ari came in like a boss. Beautiful performance from these queens 💕
That was special, Summer feels a lot more comfortable on stage with Ari by her side. Love them
Omg they love is real asf. ♈
You noticed that too I'm happy for her.
Omg i was about to say that❤❤
I KNEW SHE COULD STILL SING THAT SOCIAL ANXIETY DONT HAVE HER VOICE SO SHAKY ANYMORE I LOVE THEMM
When was her voice shaky ?
This is where Summer belongs, not in any drama
The harmonizing at the end 😭👏🏾👏🏾
Yes, it was 😊👏🏿👏🏿
Social anxiety is real , I hope she gets better with time 💖 that Sax 🎷 was Jamming 😭🙌🏾💯
Yasss the sax sounds so sexy
The sax is my favorite part.
I know I suffer with it and being an introvert on top of it Sooo hard to cope sometimes
@@ladygemini5967 I have it too and people will confuse with being stuck up or weird.
@@ladygemini5967 me too! So I definitely understand. 💖
A joint album with Summer Walker and Ari Lennox would be bomb 🥺🧡
YES! Add SZA in there
yes ari & summer album
Yes. My ears ... I need it
With the jazz band included here lol
I luv how summer just seems so unbothered like all the time and ari just be bout it bout it luv it I want more music from them together
yes the differences in their personality is so beautiful to see together
@@guidetotappingin I agree
You can tell how much love and passion Summer has for music and singing. We literally can see how uncomfortable she is every time she’s on stage but she still manages to pull through and do it flawlessly every time. Pitch perfect. Anxiety can be crippling, it affects you mentally, emotionally and physically. I have MAJOR respect for this woman as an artist. Keep pushing Summer.
I cried like a proud mama watching this because I know how that anxiety feels when you have to sing in front of a crowd. 😭💕💕
Sound better than the actual record (they both sound good af) but this is my personal opinion 🖤
I'm not familiar with this artist and yes she sounds awesome .but please on CZcams could y'all stop it with the record and the live music comparisons a True performer is supposed to sound better than the recording that's why its a live performance geesh !! Duh?
I agree with you
@@nicholejohnson9118 thanks for ur reply and good point especially if the singer can't sing it's an awesome award show all of the awesome live performances waay better than the American music awards and the watered down talent Grammys
Never heard of either of them but they sounded good
They definitely sound Amazing! Something about them with the live band is hitting!
She look kinda nervous but she held it down 😍 Summer
Summer has anxiety issues
I actually think she’s getting more comfortable on stage…baby steps y’all lol
I'm sorry Ari stole this performance. She came out ready lmaoooooooo love her
Im such a fangirl for ari lennox
HOW does summer slay so *effortlessly.* Baby teach me your tricks. 😩😩🙏🏾
Anxiety babes 🥰
@@jamiekins1961 Who cares if you're a singer. This performance is not about you. You sound like a hater.
@@jamiekins1961 That may be true, but a lot of female singers can't sing that low without having a shaky voice. It might look easy, but the key that summer is singing in is actually quite low.
Can we talk about how much her stage presence has grown. As a introvert myself, sharing your art can be so terrifying. Yes Summer! Show the world the world your talent! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree
@@Co33coco same🥰😍😌💪🏽😎
Am I the only one who noticed the saxophone player messed up twice?? Besides that, great performance ❤
Nah I caught that too
They way she walked off that stage was just a fabulous as the performance!!❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥
I adore these two Aries Women. Summer is going to give you what she got & gone on about her business!! I love how they played off of each others energy. Ari could have showed up & out. But out of respect she met Summer where she was at 🥰
❤❤❤❤
She did. You could tell. Ari be sanging her face offf lol
Aries ♈️! Energy 🔥!!!
Ari Lennox gonna have fun and bring Summer out even more. Summer needs a goofy or cool person to make her let lose
She was amazing! Social anxiety is a real thing, this is dam near impossible for some people, the nerves will make you vomit and jump without your approval lol so this is amazing
Why do you all keep critiquing her stage presence each time? Clearly there’s a reason for everything, always give grace. Her talent is undeniable, if you do not truly love her stop watching her wtf
Summer killer it, man i wish she will go on tour.
ME TOO
Me three
Killed what this was boring and she looked like she didn’t wanna be there
@@dance4life1208 she has social anxiety.
She refuses to get vaccinated so no shows😖
Don’t ask me why I cried at the end of this lmao. I feel like a proud parent 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
I definitely was about to. Overcoming fears💕💕💕
This performance always gives me chills. & Summer Walker did her thing, social anxiety or not! And love how big sis Ari was right there for her! ICONIC 👑👑👑
I’m so proud of Summer. Her stage presence gets better with every performance despite the anxiety. Keep going, Summer. We’re rooting for you
Summers voice is just, effortless and Ari gives my soul what it needs!
2:15 - It's the woman in the audience singing in unison with the lyrics for me. 😂
The performance was amazing 🥰 but nobody gonna mention that sax 🎷 solo 🤯🤯🤯 he played like his life depended on it 💯
You can totally tell that she has social anxiety. She so brave for this! Passion and Talent for the win! 👏👏👏
I LOOOVE THIS SONG. 🙌🏽 Ari notes *”I GUESS I’M UNLOYAL BABYY. 🥴”* puts the Cherry on top of it All. 😙😙😘
I LOOOVE THIS SONG. 🙌🏿 Summer low tho "I GUESS I'M UNTRUUUE.😩" brings out the harmony. 😊😊☺
I'm so proud of you Summer. My son struggles with anxiety and large crowds. I can't imagine going in front of all these people and delivering a beautiful performance.
I’m rooting for summer i like her . Having anxiety ain’t easy she doing her ish 🔥🔥🔥
This performance was everything - and Good Lord, Ari Lennox is one GORGEOUS woman - she is soooo beautiful ! ❤️😍
That’s what I’m talking about Summer , she’s getting so much better 🥰🥰🥰🥰 & the harmony 😩😩😩🤯😱🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ari came out going in as always lmaooooooooo love her
Always! Lmaooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn summer can really sing
Yes, she can!
Some of y'all don't understand people having social anxiety and being nervous. I applause anybody that can stand up in front of a crowd and sing or do any type of performance with anxiety. I was nervous with her because I understand and I'm so happy she she got on stage and she sounded really good. Y'all so used to people getting on stage and overdoing the performance 🤦🏿♀️
how do everyone know she has anxiety why do people keep talking about it...
@@thecuteshuttletransportati7025 Cause she's told folks
Yesss this is the comment!!
Great post, I agree & she did very well, she did not look uncomfortable at all this time... she is getting better and better, its great to watch positive growth!!!
summer is a angel..🥺 also 1:46 that lil saxophone note jump 💀💀💀
🤣🤣🤣
Baby those notes was jumping the whole time he sounded horrible 🤣🤣
bruhhh like how the sax cracked! My face said 😵💫 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Was it on purpose? Bro you had one job lolol
This was phenomenal, it gives me throwback rnb veteran vibes
When Ari said "b*tch I am so done with that" I felt it
Summer did her thing while looking like a queen.. those nerves will give you a fight or flight response and she stood their and fought and gave us a great performance.. she did that!! Great job queen ari too
She is the artist to beat at this point.
I don’t think people realise that she is number 1 and better than a lot of people from the 90s
@@BT-sharky from the 90s?
@@BT-sharky No she isn’t better, but she’s good.
Dry performance DRY
@@BT-sharky Dont get me wrong she's good ... but you cap ... don't push it lmaooo
Ari stays performing in BET events. Slay mama😍
I love the fact that Ari did not try to out perform her 😍😍😍! Black girl magic !
Ari definitely made Summer more comfortable on the stage, love the sisterhood!❤️
Definitely.
One thing the haters can not say is that Summer can't sing live. That was beautiful
They killed this
I got to see her live this past mother's day weekend headliner for Mary J. She sang this song beautifully. 🙌🏾🎵
It really bothers me people don’t believe her anxiety, I’m so proud of you Summer bby, you have shown growth and dedication and I see YOU ! ♥️♥️
Cause how was she a stripper and now an entertainer with social anxiety? That's like a farmer being scared of animals. Pick a different profession if it's a problem
@@StayAlert_StayAlive who said she didn’t have it while she was a stripper? she’s a singer now n still has it Lmao you can be social anxiety n still need to face them n make your money . Your comment made no sense lol
@@neomabeauty7216Ok
@@StayAlert_StayAlive you’re fucked up.
@@StayAlert_StayAlive okay but the profession doesn’t matter. Anxiety can be triggered in any situation or environment. You don’t get to turn it off and on. She has a beautiful voice and is a talented artist, sometimes you just have to cope with your mental health issues while still doing what you love.
This was so good and sounded even better live ari and summer's voice sound so great together. Also I'm really glad summer has gotten more comfortable singing on stage i'm glad to see the improvement she did amazing I'm proud of her.
I’m so proud of Summer. She’s doing better with her anxiety & IT SHOWS
Arie & Summer = a great duo
Summer: now that's a comeback Momma!!!🔥
Both of them sounded fantastic. I love singers that can actually sing without studio enhancement.
I didn’t realize how beautiful she was Geesh. And ari vocals are insane
this is so fcking good oml we need this version on spotify asap
Summer performs like Sade. I was happy to see her , she handled that performance and sang effortlessly
Summer's voice is beautiful. She's gonna always hit live. But if she's not all the way in it it's gonna come off super chill. I guess I'm really seeing that's her vibe. But they did great! And the blend they had at the end
😚🤌🏽
I feel like she’s holding back in her live performances, she could really be hitting some crazy notes and giving us vocal range, but that will happen eventually, she & Ari did amazing though !
@@BlackGirlWithSocialAnxiety agreed!
These 2 vocals is a whole vibe!! This is my fave song on her album!🔥🔥
Yesssssss, they are a vibe
Same!! THIS IS THE TRACK!!!!!
These ladies sound like a smooth flowing fountain of the richest chocolates. They are a smooth groove for sure👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That last “So call it what you wantttt” 🔥😍
I loved this performance. Summer and Ari can do no wrong in my book..
