Karyn White is an underrated artist with a voice of gold!!!
Very true it was must up they didnt invite her to the tribute.
@@VonTheStampede ikr... I mean much love to Fantasia.. but Karyn White is Superwoman!!!
@@mane776 agreed
mane776 is she really underrated? I remember when people use to dog her voice. Karyn doesn’t have star power. She’s a beautiful woman but she never had any appeal to her. There’s no personality to her. She was always gonna be stuck behind the better female artists of her day.
@@amcra1 yes... definitely underrated.. although u make a great point!!!
" The Way You Love Me" is my song ! Thanks for the video😊!
anytime enjoy
KevonnieElaine hell yea awesome 👏 song
Love Saw it is an amazing duet
Yes it really is.
SuperWoman was one of my favorite songs she still beautiful and flawless 🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕💯💯💯!!!!
Karyn White's Romantic video was so huge on MTV's rotation in the early '90s
Love Saw It was the song. Liked it more than Super Woman. And her hair has always been bomb.
Give me a Karyn White and Jody Watley sandwich 😋 with a side of Stephanie Mills!
With the girls from the 80's. I'm somewhat with you. Give me a Sheila E and Karen Whyte sandwich with a whole side plate of Vanessa Williams singing "Dreamin" to me
Add Adina Howard in there too....i need some spice on my meat 🤣
And Donna Summer
Hell of a combination 👌🏽
Don't forget Anita baker
She still sounds great and is still as beautiful as ever.
Karyn White Is Absolutely Flawless. Still Gorgeous As Ever, This Diva Can Sang. "Superwoman" Was My Favorite Song, Handsdown!!! 😍😍😍❤❤😜
Her debut album is still her best one. Hard to top that bad mother!
That's f'd up they didn't call her for the reunion.
"Can you believe that she's 54?"
No
I also can't believe that you called that man "Kennyface Baby"! That was hilarious! LMAO
Yeah I can admit I messed that one up lmao
She is still beautiful.
Do unto you is my FAVORITE song I listen to this almost daily. Karyn White is sooo underrated. I enjoyed this segment.
I must admit that while the Heavy Metal craze was going on causing me to attempt suicide at one point in that year 1989, singers like Karyn White managed to talk me out of it through song.
Radical Bryan .... I’m sooo glad that her music inspired you to stay here on earth with US. You been here experiencing BLESSING for last 31 years, because 1989 wasn’t the year for you to leave this earth❤️
Im glad you survived but your comment proves that music is very powerful n what we listen to really impacts us.
Wow! That Heavy Metal was no joke with the demonic power. So glad u broke free
A truly phenomenal & under-appreciated artist. 1 of my faves.
Ditto
Karyn Looks GoooooooodT❤️
Right
I loved her work with Jeff Lober and Babyface more than the work with her then husband, Terry Lewis, which is crazy because I love ALL his work other with Jimmy Jam.
I got her music and Jeff lorber
One of the most sizzling gorgeous singers of the era. Wow!
Karyn White is an American singer and songwriter who has a net worth of $4 million. Karyn White was born in Los Angeles, California in October 1965
Karyn white is a beast on vocals and she always had some great songs her make him do right album should of done better especially with can I stay with you is the song
Thank you for that unsung short,man,Karyn is still GORGEOUS!!!! Glad she is doing well and can still BLOW!!!! Didn.t know she has new music and videos out!!! Man,I.ve been asleep at tha wheel,will check out all her new material.PEACE.
Alway been a big fan, love me some Karyn White, looks like they dropped the ball on the awards show, they never do our classic divas right! Would have been a great time to show the world that Karyn was back and better than ever! Btw, you said Karyn Whites “ Make Them Do Right” album wasn’t a big success , but it was in my eyes, I played it a lot and still play it to this day! It was my favorite album of the year it was released.
the way you love me and superwoman are my #2 favorites 🥰
Awesome
Bruh, thanks for doing this. I loved Karyn white.
Thank you!, for making a educational but relevant video about this artist that is very much needed, it's so sad that in her ideal of what she considers to be unsung is so much a disheartening aspect of being considered a has-been. Just because you are not as hot as you were does not make you any less than what you were, it's always nice to know where people is humble beginnings began
Bro saying she is beautiful or gorgeous would be a understatement good gracious black don't crack and she's a Libra like me most old Libras look young 😍😍🥰🥰
🎶You say your juice is sour, it used to be sooo sweet, and I can't help to wonder if you're talking about me🎶 -Superwoman
I love Karyn White.. Just an amazing artist
Karyn white needed to be there. Super Women is her song.
True they were being pitied at least called her
Karyn is so beautiful. She sorta resembles Stephanie Mills.
so so so so pretty... had her poster on my wall in 90
Wow great story she never stopped or got stuck in bad side of music industry
yeah she just had that mid break when she had a daughter so good for her
@@VonTheStampede exactly
She did stop. She stop for over 17 years
@@amcra1 that doesn't mean they stop signing all together.
Von The Stampede she stopped singing completely.
Karyn White was a great artist from the late 80s. I have Secret Rendezvous and The Way You Love Me on 45!
Seriously?? That is cool
@@VonTheStampede Yeah! I have a huge collection of 45s... some I've gotten over the years from used record stores but those two are originals from back in the day!
@@DanReviewsIt that is cool man im actually jealous 😅
@@VonTheStampede glad I stumbled across this series of yours... thought about doing one for Taylor Dayne?
2014: My uncle and his girlfriend took me out to eat in Birmingham, Alabama... in the white part of town. I can't remember the name of the spot but it's like a Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. type place. While we pulled into the parking lot, I told her that she looks like Karyn White. I told her that I'm seeing Karyn's debut album cover in my mind. She said, "I receive it. I like her." but he kept arguing that she doesn't look like Karyn. As we walked into the restaurant, they were playing country music. After we were seated, I Googled Karyn's first album cover to prove my point. Suddenly, the song stopped and Karyn White's "Secret Rendezvous" came on. I just looked at them and said, "GOD has spoken!"
I love her and she is on Instagram and she always response back with I leave a message ❤️
She sure does. She always hits back as if she a home girl. ❤️ Karen.
I love it all... Especially
"The Way I Feel About You!" ❤️
Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous Woman
Great sweet voice that didn't go very far! Which it had of!
That Jeff Lorber album was the shit!
Thank God! A singer that did not get ravaged by the use of drugs and alcohol.
"Kenny face baby Edmonds". Opps.
I know I'm at fault
KoolHandDuke really lol
@@cronb2009 yep I messed that up lol
Von The Stampede lol on purpose haha
I was wondering if anyone else caught that!
She is beautiful and talented! Her and my mom are the same age!
Love Karyn White - one of my favorite artists of all my 55 yrs
Really?
This was an awesome Unsung short!
Thanks I got more
She should've never left the LaFace production team
They weren’t paying her like most so call producers do their artists
Love this!
Thanks
Should have done a little more research. Noticed a few mistakes but loved seeing Karyn again. Still beautiful! Huge Fan!

Thank you
Good video.
I will be boogieing down to "Romantic" on November 2nd to commemorate the 30th anniversary of it going to number one.
Love me some Karyn White!!
Never heard of her she sounds like every other female in that year
Leaving Baby Face as her producer was her down fall
maybe we dont know if there relationship fell off or not
Von The Stampede
No. She married Terry Lewis and felt obligated to let her new hubby produce her second album. But Babyface was just the better writer.
Cellmate1 Yup, that's somewhat true.. I remember it being said that L.A, Babyface, and others backed away from her because she got married to a older famous producer sooo young. It overshadowed her career. She was looked at as someone's wife and a soon to be mom. Second & third album didn't do as well as the first (First album was done with mainly Babyface). Sometimes mixing business with pleasure isn't a good idea. Everybody can't be Ashford & Simpson!
How is that her down fall? Even with LA and Babyface her debut album only went double platinum. That says a lot. Even if she worked with him on other albums she still would not have been super successful. Karyn nevee had any star power.
Mirium Butterfly this is not even true. While LA and Babyface didn’t want to work with her neither did Jam and Lewis. Being Terry’s wife didn’t overshadow her at all. And for thr record while he was older he was still in his 30’s. So that didn’t make much of a difference. Karyn just didn’t have what it took to propel her career forward. She got overshadow by better female artists. I will admit that the songs by Jam and Lewis were some of their worst work. However, I don’t blame them. I blame the artist and Warner Bros.
IT'S KENNY "BABY FACE" EDMONDS!! 😆 😆😆
yeah i messed that one up
WTF!!! It's sad that Karyn was not asked to perform on that award show. I watched it and Fantasia was not a good substitute.
Right. I can't believe they didn't invite her😫😫
i was MAD
I don’t understand why anyone would be mad. Karyn can be unmotivated at times. Soul Train wanted to do a LaDace tribute before this and asked her to do it. She said yes then turned atound at the last minute and said no. Luckily the tribute was scrapped. But that tells Babyface all he needs to know about you. Karyn hasn’ t sung Superwoman in damn near 20 years so how was she just expected to show up and sing then.
i remember Facts of Love!
Could you do Jesse Powell and Michael Speaks ?
Sure when I have the time
Jesse Powell would be good!
It’s funny reading all these comments talking about how good she looks. That’s really all there is to her. Karyn is a beautiful woman but that’s it. That’s why her career didn’t last. She had/has 0 star power. There was never any style to her. She lacked a true personality. That was never going to be enough to sustain a career. I don’t also don’t get why people feel sorry for her. This woman gave up her career and ran hid never to be seen from again until 17 years later.
Listening alot with there
videos kasane is huggel than change more to me.
LOVE her
Still young and fine!
I loved saw it
Not everyone is cut out to do voiceover work.
FYI: 1)It's pronounced, "Car-Pay Dee-Umm" (Latin for, "Seize The Day"; 2)It's Kenneth Babyface Edmonds. Thank You.
Love Jam and Lewis but they're magic didnt work for Karyn.
I agree, and that’s surprising because they work wonders for everyone else they worked with. And you would think her and Terry would’ve had a strong chemistry in the studio because they were married. I love her Babyface and Jeff Lober collaborations.
@@CodyCole80 Jimmy and Terry was mainly focused on Janet
You're right, but I was just telling a person on here, everybody can 't be Ashton & Simpson! Karyn White & her husband may have been in love, but that didn't mean they needed to be in the studio trying to make songs..especially if the chemistry wasn't there.. She even said back then that she enjoyed working with Babyface better than working with her own husband.
Mirium Butterfly you really don’t know what you’re talking about
Joshua McDowell no true. They were with other female artists during this time and were just as successful. Sometimes you can’t blame the producer and should blame the artist
SHES STILL MY GIRLFRIEND!!!I LOVE HER AND DEATH WILL DO US PART!!!!!LOL..LOL!!!!THE SAD PART IS SHE DONT EVEN KNOW IT!!!!
Who is Kenny face baby edmunds?
Let’s get romantic and way I feel about you and can I stay with you are my all time fav songs by this beautiful woman.
Really
I love you Karyn!! That is all lol
FYI: Carpe Diem pronounced Car-pay Dee-Em😊
Thanks for the feedback and pronoucation.
'Cause you butchered that one!! LoL
K.Scorpio come and take it.
@@VonTheStampede You're welcome 🤗 I'm glad you took the correction the right way and didn't get offended 🙂
@@charlesanderson1422 😊
54 ain’t old for her.... She still fine
I've always thought she was pretty and the voice is amazing. It also seems like she knows how to handle her business. She was only married once with one kid? I would have gave her a basketball team.
I’m a singer and I’ve always loved karen white but bet always be disrespecting artist a lot of their execs they have their are tired dry and thru and out of touch !
Babyface never let's you down.....
Superwoman
Can I stay with you
I'd rather be alone
The Caramel Goddess....
kricket15000 typical ignorant idiot.. That is her nickname...
WOW! THEY DIDN'T CALL HER TO SING HER SONG...SHADY.
Do one on DRS ( dirty rotten scoundrel) gangster lean
I will when I have the time thanks man
egypt tompson I like that song Gangsta Lean!
Can u do drew hill unsung or upload it.
I won't upload dru hill because of copyright and tv one unsung dis there version it's on CZcams
I’m still pissed she was replaced with Fantasia at the Babyface tribute in 2015.
