What the fuck is up with Chaka? LOL This is bad!
whats so bad about ...( 2 weeks ago by nurikara)
whats so bad about chaka here folks? here intonation seems all steady as far as i can judge as an amateur jazz player, so there is no reason to claim drunkenness on anything
she just preferred ...( 2 weeks ago by nurikara)
she just preferred her rufus like, funky screaming mode, rather than her "classikhan" mode, well id prefer the latter on summertime, but still i dont think she botches
and i think ...( 2 weeks ago by nurikara)
and i think fantasia is at her closest to early aretha here, this might be her best performance, i wish she sung more jazz
thats what ive been ...( 2 weeks ago by paddeyOmalley)
thats what ive been tryin to tell all this while..lol..it seems that only those who understand jazz could really understand Chaka's interpretation here..and your definitely one of em..Chaka's laying some serious jazz/blues interpretation here with spot on notes! how i wish more people could understand and appreciate real oldskool blues sanging like tiz..she improvised on the whole song,literally and made it work!gotta be a music genius to accomplish that! fantasia just sung the standard melody..
Chaka is a music ...( 2 weeks ago by paddeyOmalley)
Chaka is a music chameleon..her voice is multi facited and she can sang in any mode she chooses too..this style is just one out of her many vocal groupies..them haters need to check out Chaka's other interpretation of this song and comment on it instead of bashing this performance alone..they gotta know the real Chaka and her true capabilities..this is just one out of her many distinctive rendition of summertime!
now name me other ...( 2 weeks ago by paddeyOmalley)
now name me other singers who can do as many distinctive renditions of a song like Chaka did..the most they can do is change the riffs..not many can improvise as "whole" like Chaka,which includes tempo,melody,tone dynamics,phrasing,riffs,intonation ect ect..
and Rachelle Ferrel ...( 2 weeks ago by paddeyOmalley)
and Rachelle Ferrel is the only current generation of singers that can really improvise..yet she is still underrated..
What? Why does ...( 2 weeks ago by temoc76)
What? Why does Chaka have atleast 8 gammy's and Fantasia 0? Give it up American Idol fan. American Idol is good, but the public votes for what the "popular" ones, not the talented ones.

One word about Chaka.....drunk.
yea, chaka has won ...( 2 weeks ago by truthb777)
yea, chaka has won eight grammys and was cast in the color purple,after fannnys run was over.chaka got terriblereviews and the show canceled after a month because of poor ticket sales. so it seems awards don't mean shit on the great white way. the director said he was shocked.
actually Chaka has ...( 2 weeks ago by paddeyOmalley)
actually Chaka has 10 grammys..
make that 10 ...( 2 weeks ago by paddeyOmalley)
make that 10 grammys which she won another 2 in 07..yeah,she won grammys, not toni or emmys or golden globe..music is Chaka's main forte..and you cannot blame Chaka solely for poor tickets sale..
Never blamed Chaka ...( 1 week ago by truthb777)
Never blamed Chaka just giving little Fanny her props too.Her day will come she is still young and I know Chaka wish she could sell all that stuff on behalf of her son.
