Good Lord! Man. See, this is when you seperate your singers from your saaaaaangers! I know that type of style won’t be to every ones tastes and many will think that it’s all just a bunch of screaming, but boi, when you’re honoring Ms Patti LaBelle – you gotta bring that way.
All the performances were great, I was very surprised with LeToya’s. What Jennifer Hudson did at the end of that performance was simply breathe taking – I knew she had a dope voice, but didn’t know she got down like that. BUT Fantasia brought that place to it’s knees. Man, that voice is craaaaazy! Patti was lovin’ it - you know that ‘rollin-around-yellin’ is her trademark. Crazy soul singers man.
Peace, Love & Patti LaBelle
