She IS THE vocalist of all vocalists. She most certainly is the second coming of vocals. There isn’t anything she can’t do nor genre. There isn’t another female vocalist that can touch her. She truly is UNmatched
Rachelle is a master vocalist. She is also an excellent musician. I have always believed she is a vocalist who truly thinks of her voice/body as an instrument. She plays her whole body when she sings. Great video.
I 100% agree with you here. She's probably the most musically astute singer I've ever heard.
@Freelance Auntie What a wonderful way to describe Rachelle's gift. That was perfect!!!
Very well said. Great comment.
The best thing i love about Rachelle is, She knows exactly what her instrument is.
with all due respect... the 'band' is not just a band. that is the incomparable jonathan butler and the legendary george duke, rip. please look them up. you'll be glad you did!
A few folks have made this comment so I ended up looking up George duke. I have a much bigger playlist on Spotify now ha
I had the privilege of seeing them all together in concert. It was a beautiful experience. R.I.P. George Duke 🥲
Yes … a legend George Duke gone too soon and Jonathan Butler… masterpieces
I love all things Jonathan Butler his style and sound is also one of a kind.
@@LesageSinging you are the best! Please continue to educate and refine our ears!🥰🥰🥰
She IS music, it emanates from her innermost being.
One if not the greatest singer on the planet !!!!
Oh the LEGENDARY George Duke!!! Ms. Ferrell is a walking, living, breathing Master Class!!!!
Rachelle was also very comfortable with George Duke who was her primary producer. George gave Rachelle all the space she needed to create her art. George had a great impact on her artistry.
Omg…… their jam together No Rhyme No Reason….I have no words for the beauty of that song.
As well as, the incomparable Phyllis Hyman!!!(...of which she sang back up for! 😉)
You said it! She's the QUEEN of VOWELS!!!
I love how she tickle you with vocal dynamics. She will give you a little bit of climax here and there, before she really BOOMS in a performance. She will tickle you so much with lyrical tone and various vowels before she really BOOMS in a performance. It's so beautiful and epic.
Definitely, "I have not yet reached my final form."
The accuracy 😭😭😂
This banter is how she usually introduces her band. She also corrects the band during song by changing registers and looking at whomever needs to be corrected.
As a favorite singer, I have seen her live dozens of times and each time was a totally different experience. Every. Single. Time. This is a group that toured together a lot.
Now sister girl like someone else said in the comments THEY are not just a “group/band” they are solo talent & stars in the field in their own right. The George Duke and award winning Jonathan Butler
Rachelle Ferell is a vocal TITAN. Like she's a whole other level. She's most definitely a vocal technician. She knows her voice, and overall sound SO Well.
Definitely would love you to do a reaction to her "With Open Arms" performance at the Apollo.
Rachelle Ferrell is a pure genius. She is my favorite vocalist. I feel there is no one better. I love the way you appreciate her. How she could be so gifted and not a mega superstar is beyond me.
Exactly! It puzzles me why she never made it to super stardom.
Rachel’s unique and unmatched vocal style is not commercial and marketable. Also, she wanted to wear her hair in a “natural” style and be experimental and free in her performances. Now we’ve gone to the extreme where musicality is almost lost with each generation…(Well, as a person who just received a threat last night via Twitter because of a negative comment I made about the HORRIBLE singing of Camilla Cabello I understand. The industry promotes mediocrity and overt sexuality versus talent.)
You found the GODDESS of the First Instrument album...... No one is more of a vocalist..... I have been her Fan since early 1990's
Yup bro, her whistle register is next level too. Listen to With Open Arms at the Apollo Theatre. You won't regret it.
Yes please
I was there at the Apollo ( it was first job ever)… The ppl showed no love… I was just getting my feet wet in the industry… but I knew….. I was 14 then but I knew!!
OMG!!! George Duke and Jonathan Butler and Rochelle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The band consists of some of the best jazz musicians … famous in their own right, i.e the late George Duke (keyboards), Jonathan Butler (guitarist) and John Roberts (drummer) They are great at improv!
Hey 47 is that the same Jonathan Butler that had the hit “Lies” in the 80’s?
@@richg9448 Yes, it is.
Rachelle Ferrel’s voice is unmatched! I listen to her often! Her voice will make you laugh and cry ❤️
definitely
She is one of the greats! Listen to her w/Will Downing
Stop playing with the children!!!!! ~~~song: “Nothing has ever felt like this”. 😳🤭😵💫
Yes they are sweet together
She’s everything I want to be as a person, talent aside she’s so intelligent, graceful and spiritually in tuned.
I'm going to do a stream specific to her. The views won't be nearly as much, but I just don't care. She's so amazing.
@@LesageSinging yay! I feel like her price she paid for her mastery was giving up the idea of being commercialised to fit into the mainstream influence.
@@LesageSinging oh I'm here for it! Thank you! Thank you!!
@@LesageSinging Yes! A Rachel Ferrell performance is a MASTERCLASS in singing. 🎤🎵🎹 She sacrificed commercial success for musical and spiritual freedom.
I had the extraordinary privilege of sitting in the audience that day at the Stravinsky Aditorium in Montreux. In 1997, almost no one in the audience knew who Rachelle Ferrel was. After the first song it was clear to everyone she is unbelievable. The band was put together by George Duke just for this concert. I have seen over 100 concerts in Montreux this was the absolute highlight.
Dude. Did you just say Rachelle sounds like "Grass fed from the farmer's market butter"??
Oh I like you...
Subscribed.
I was all over that phrase 😃 This is my guy !!!! I just found him a few days ago 😁
@@leeleemee same!!! No idea how the YT recommendations sent this my way but thanks!
😂
One of my favorite songs by Rachelle Ferrel! She is the queen of interpretation, enunciation, and the art of phrasing! She never yodels as most newer artists do. She controls her breath so there is rarely quivering vibrato, and thus produces the smoothest sound ever!!! I love her vocal skills!!!
My Darling…. Those musicians are all huge names 😍
For instance, the guitar 🎸 player with the Blonde hair is the legendary JONATHAN BUTLER! He is an EXCEPTIONAL singer. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 That’s the lovely George Duke on keys 🎹
Listening to this woman makes the veins in my brain want to pop...good Lorddddddd!!!! She is U N B E L I E V A B L E!!! These musicians are everything!
She allows her band to shine and it takes them to a higher level of their craft. She is so amazing...her notes, her performance, her skill is so raw and so insane... love it!!
Rachelle Ferrell is living proof that “genre” has more to do with the race of the artist than the style of music. She accesses and joins together so many musical inspirations from all over the world. But, she’s categorized as “R&B”?
I consider her Jazz, more than anything else.
@@Sttephy30 “Jazz”, too, is a racialized term.
@@SuiteVII Well, that's what she mostly is... Jazz. Racialized or not. That woman is pure Jazz, unapologetically Jazz.
@@Sttephy30 I dont agree. Im sure Rachelle considers herself beyond genre.
@@SuiteVII True. But most of her training is received within' the elitist world of Jazz. Its all in her style. That's why people from the R&B, Soul & Pop world really don't get her. Her musicality is very unpredictable and Jazzy. She's an acquired taste, like a lot of Jazz singers. As for her vocal ability, she studied voice in school.. She's a freak of nature vocally.
I really appreciate your analysis. You are a teacher. It doesn't matter how often you pause the video. If we wanted to just hear the song, we could.
The musicians are all TOP SHELF LEGENDS! THAT WHOLE STAGE IS HEAVENLY AND MAGICAL! AS YOU SEE SHE GETS LOST IN THE MUSIC!
She is one of my favorite artist! Her voice and range is amazing!
I'm loving the fact that you can't get enough!!! She's pure genius!!!
21:41 - 21:53 one of the ILLEST vocal runs of ALL time. 👏🏾🙌🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Would love to hear your reaction to her & George Duke "With Every Breath I Take." She's a BEAST with that song!
The incomparable Rachelle! That funk portion is pure fire!!!
Please do all the Rachelle Ferrell videos you can find! :D
ALL of them will change your life!! And then listen to her albums and imagine being a fly on the wall in the studio.. 💀❤️🧙🏾
@@emisses7128 YESSS! :D
YOU MUST LOOK AT HER VIDEO - WITH EVERY BREATH I TAKE, AND DO AN ANALYSIS ON. SHE DISPLAYS SO MUCH SKILL IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND. SHE HAS DEFINITELY HAD SOME OPERATIC TRAINING. VOICES LIKE THIS COME ONCE IN A LIFETIME.
Only once!
I always loved her since I was a young girl. I love Lalah Hathaway as well.
George Duke Band One THE Greatest Bands ever!!!!!!!!
she's just unmatchable 😍
Honestly, she has always been my favorite artist! She has an amazing instrument! She can do any and everything with her instrument. Thank you for your review and keep doing what you do! I will continue to watch!
Gorge Duke on the keyboard and Jonathan Butler on the guitar are awesome Musicians! Rachelle is out of this world! Love, love her!
"I love funk" realize you are listening to the writer of Dookie Stick. The king of the funk groove, Mr. George Duke! Jonathan Butler, the South African wonderment on bass, who also has the best vocals work. This trio are GIANTS of the funk era. I wish you lived through it like we did. They are the standard setters. Please check out more. Her 1st instrument album. Do it. Btw, her "beat boxing" happened well before that term was invented. Actually she is scatting, albeit rhythmically.
Thanks for kicking that knowledge 😀
I agree…She was scatting (scat) but I also detected a bit of a South African Xhosa “click” sound. Hey, @Lesage perhaps she was musically communicating to Jonathan Butler who is South African.
You can go ahead and groove with it. It’s cool. Do yo dance.
All I'm going to say once again freaking mind-blowing I love the fact that you explained and breaking down how The Voice work this is why I love your page this is a teaching moment absolutely
PLEASE react to Karen Clark! She uses her whole face to sing, tongue out and all and has never-ending breadth! All of her sisters (The Clark Sisters) are amazingly talented gospel/R&B singers
Thank you Rachelle, for singing and not YELLING!!!
I'm not gonna lie, I do not understand half of the stuff that you explain here lol, but I absolutely love your channel, I like to sing so I am glad I found your channel :) and Jesus who is this woman OMG out of this planet
She is one of my favorite singers I’ve listen to her since I was a child and her vocals are on another level
Did you notice at 18:08 or so, she was creating 2 octaves on the same note? Not like Lalah, but tonally. Listen again. I miss George Duke so much. He wrote a song Dooky Stick, where he says what funk is and does. He is, and does. His early death wàs a blow to funk, jazz, and Soul.
Definitely the best right here. Also the mentor to Ledisi
And to Jennifer Hudson. I hear Rachelle Ferrell and her techniques everything I listen to Jennifer Hudson.
Great to know this. 👍
Rachelle Farrell is THE QUEEN OF VOCALS The God has truly blessed her with the DNA to back it up ❤️🔥
Enjoying your reactions videos. Love hearing you hear into some of my favorite artists and videos on YT. You’re right, everyone is hitting it because they are all beasts! Jonathan JB Butler (“Sarah, Sarah” 1987 groove and oh so many more) is one of my favorite artists and George Duke still reigns even after his death. And Rachelle (pronounced like “Ra-shell”) is most DEFINITELY an instrument in living form and voice!). Keep reacting, sir! We’re here for it!
She’s bionic.
Been waiting for someone to react to and analyse this video! Fantastic insights - thanks!
The BEST vocal analysis I’ve seen on CZcams (except for you not knowing the highly accomplished members of “the band.”) I think some of her “beat boxing” was actually scatting (Scat) w/ a mix of a South African Xhosa “click” sound. Every Rachel Ferrell performance is a MASTERCLASS in singing. 🎤🎹🎵
Rachelle’s vocals are insane!!!
love your channel man! You’re my favorite teacher to watch on CZcams. I’m also a voice teacher. That sound that isn’t quite whistle voice is flageolet. She’s great at mixing some flageolet into her head voice! She can also do whistle really well where the folds are locked down but around the 21 min mark where you mentioned what she does it definitely sounds like head voice with some flageolet mixed in
She is so under rated.
I try to get people to understand that finding one vowel that works at a certain range, let alone an entire assortment. It's completely bonkers.
Completely…. But these other so called “artists” nowadays cant even start to begin to try and sang like Rachelle
You need to catch the performance at The Appollo, you'll LOVE it!!!!
Lil Jon Roberts has played drums for Rachelle for many years.
She is the TRUTH!!!💖🎶🔥 Another artist dropping those notes would be Angela Winbush, "Angel"! You'd LOVE IT!
Yes, musicians of the highest level.
I am subscribing to your channel just for THIS! You came across my feed for one thing out of the blue and then I saw your reaction to another vocal coach reaction lol! You got me dude! I was getting ready to comment on the video to react to Rachelle Ferrell and HEREEEEE YOU ARE!!!!!!!
I like the performance she did with Kem. You should see that
SAY WHAT!!!!???? I’m on the prowl for this performance. 😘
I absolutely love Rachelle Farrell!
My dad Richard rightfully loved Ella and Sarah. But many years ago, when he first heard Rachelle at the Apollo, he said "now wait a minute!". He was in love. Too bad he didn't live to hear her at the University of Delaware (with Glenn Jones) in 1994. It was more than great and he would have loved every moment. His favorite song was her duet with Will Downing. All their fans know which one I'm talkin' bout. Every time I listen to her I think of him.
she uses her whole body as an instrument! love her so much! can you do a reaction video of Nancy Wilson, Chaka Khan (specifically her jazz stuff) and Randy Crawford? ohhhhh, and Tuck & Patti!
My goodness!!! This was so entertaining.
Reaction high quality. Great point of view! We really need to have people reaction like this, don't care how many view!
Rachelle manipulates her whistle register very well. On par with Mariah and Minnie. Her performance of Autumn Leaves and With open arms puts that register on display very well.
React to Rachelle Ferell Autumn Leaves Live 1989
Jonathan Butler on the guitar is a BEAST! This in an Elite group of musicians.
You found it!!!❤❤❤
One thing I've learned singing Rachelle Ferrell's songs.... IF U DON'T MAKE THE FACES, IT DOESN'T WORK!!🤣😂💖🎶🔥
Could you please do more reaction videos from this concert or from another one of her concerts? :) She is the best! :D
Definitely!! Any suggestions specifically? I do have one I'm doing with Ledisi. I think you were the one who suggested that during the stream ya?
Please react to Rachelle and Jennifer Hudson live at Viper Alley. It’ll blow your mind!
The reason why you haven't seen other artists doing this is because they are too afraid to make the ugly faces they all want to look so pretty. Rochelle gives us her all every face movement that's needed to create the sound that she's going after. She is an instrument her voice is an instrument and she plays it very well. You were wondering how the band groves with her it's because she is an instrument just like the guitar the piano the drums I wouldn't be surprised if she isn't written into the music just like all the other instruments. This talent of hers is passed down if you think about it, in Africa there wasn't many words that were used it was drums and vocals, tribal music that would float across from valley to valley to signal people. From Africans to the Aborigines and the American Indian all of these sounds are lost art but Rochelle has not forgotten these sounds and uses some very well to her advantage, you could even see a bit of African dance there at the end when she was getting her groove on. I know I didn't say this the way I wanted to because I'm not a musician and don't know the terms and I had thoughts in my head I just couldn't convey. Such a great talent. Of course Al jarreau had this talent of being the instrument also just not to the extent that she took it it would be nice if you would react to one of his songs I can't think of the name now he used a lot of movement in one of his performances I know it was a live performance but I can't remember which one. I have an advanced case of CRS🤔🤗🤪
Also would love your take on The Apollo performance, can't wait.
She makes you hang on every syllable that flows from her mouth, so much so that you believe you're the actual subject of the song. Another amazing performance and reaction vid!
She is an instrument, I was gonna ask you to do a video on her with the song I forgive you
I hope you do more Rachelle videos soon :)
“ Chronically Caucasian” LMFAOOO
😂😂
You say "chronically Caucasian" while giving a fair and accurate evaluation of a rare and extremely gifted musician, while folks of her own skin complextion clown her for facial movements while glorifying beyonce for being typical, twirking and being used to mislead a society. I'm rocking with you and admiring you and she forever! Do more! Teach!
You're right, "they're wrong"!
Her name is Raaachel pronounced.. Not Rachel. Get her Music it's Iconic... Seeing her Live is like Dying and Coming back to Life...
I know this now. I won't make excuses for my mispronouncing. I gotta figure out how to get the correct pronunciation when folks make requests with text only.
I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing this unbelievably woman live and in person on several occasions. I can’t even find the words to describe the experience! I’ve seen her with Will Downing, Jonathan Butler….etc.
Pronounced Ra-shell, it rhymes with her last name.
I noticed the mispronunciation as well yet this guys appreciation is so profound that I was like 🤷♀️ He’ll get it. 😘
I love this woman and if you love music and don't know her your card should be revoked!!! She is phenomenal and vocal range is whew!!!
New, to your program. Refreshing!!! Rachelle Ferrell, giving me some elements of Angela Bofill- lyrics Over the Moon and Under Sun. Can’t recall the song, my apologies 🙏🙏🙏
at 10:39, you noticed it was "so clean". yep ! but you d'idn't explained at this moment, she almost froze her entire body, but almost only, staying supple... and that's important for the result. the entire body sustains the way she exhales.
Please react to Rachelle Ferrell With Every Breath I Take and My Funny Valentine in Dakota. I think you will find both interesting.
Honestly, making the chronically Caucasian dance involuntarily is my benchmark of musical excellence 🤣😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆
3:40 pls check Diana ankudinova with wicked game. She will prove that you can sing and sound extremely good with the tongue in the back. It's basically her style.
She seems to let split second fun and breath as well as voice bends and folds go & lead, lead & roll with searingly caressed freedom, I think.
Greetings from Colombia!
Everytime I watch your videos I get a Philadelphia cheese advert lol
Who are you? And, where did you come from? Rachelle Ferrell, Leandria Johnson, Yolanda Adams, Tamala Mann, Kelly Clarkston, Jonathan McReynolds, YEBBA. I can’t stand it! I shall subscribe.
I’m trapped!!! I found this channel a few days ago 😱 I’m LOL at his expressions + crying through many of these artists songs. I love his music appreciation and technical knowledge.
😂
Look up George Duke and Stanley Clark. "Band," indeed.
If you get time please react to her song Inch Worm and see if you can tell the difference between her and the clairnet
I love when youre doing someone great, like this. Id be disappointed if you don't comment on some wonderful technique. You never disappoint. By the way I know you have found out her name is prounounced Ruh- SHELL. I just recently became a subbie, and I'm glad I did.
This was before the term 'beat boxing' this was called 'scatting'
