GarageStudio exactly. A lot of kids show potential at young ages, you can hear it, but many didn't have much vocal control or understanding of their voices. This is amazing
She was born a prodigy.. Have you seen vids of like 4 year olds play the piano or guitar like a fully trained professional.. There prodigys.. She was born with the ability to quickly learn how to fully control her voice at a very young age...
@@cyyrious at the end of the day, yes, Grammys don’t define artist, but that doesn’t make it any less unfair! There are artist that just got on the scene winning 6 Grammys a night, and it took Jaz over 10 years to get one. That is crazy!
This is why we need arts in the schools... imagine if this young lady didn't have that platform to harness and share those skills... every kid doesn't go to church but every kid goes to school... the arts matter
If I was an adult in the crowd listening to this child i literally dont know what I would have done. Do yall really realize how uncommon of a talent this is?
At this point in her life, she was already a trained singer and came from a strong vocal background through her mother. It didn’t just drop from the sky. For her talent to be this refined so young she’d have had to have vocal training
@@squarcircle2254REGARDLESS, the talent has to already be there. It always was. It's vocal TRAINING, meaning you build on or develop what is already there. How are you missing this? 😂
@@domotemujin7780 The person I was replying to said it was uncommon talent (other said “Gift from God”) but that’s not the case if the child was already classically trained and came from such a musical background. It didn’t drop from the sky. They weren’t born like this. That’s my point. Yes, training refines what’s already there but it would have taken years of training to sound like this. People get to carried away when they meet a child vocalist and said they were uncommon or a gift from God. What they didn’t see was the years and years of training it required for the child to debut like that. Majority of the greatest vocalists of all time were all classically trained and or came from a musical family backgrounds that influenced them to sing technically before we got to see them on screen for the first time. Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Cissy Houston, Dione Warwick, Barbra Streisand, Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Celine Dion, Lara Fabian, Jasmine Sullivan etc were all classically trained and or came from such families. None of them were born with such technical vocal skills.
Tori Kelly was ALMOST this good at 11. ALMOST. She still sounds a little younger than Jazmine because she has a higher voice, but still, you should check it out. It's slay. That said, Jazmine is still better. I think she's the most underrated singer of our time.
Out the womb snatching wigs from the artists of 99 and beyond!! Geezus she don't make dollars, she don't make change, and she definitely don't make SENSE!!
chad casimire Yes Thank you for saying exactly what I have been thinking ❗️ Why in the world is she barley even seen while mediocre adele is constantly thrust into our faces ❗️ Jazmine was only 11 in this video and could definitely ousting adele, just shows that true talent is ignored in favor of basic to make certain groups feel good about themselves at the talented expense.
How the fuck is Adele mediocre? Mediocre are singers like Janet Jackson, Aaliyah, Mya, etc- that made millions of dollars off their mediocre voices. Please don’t make this a race thing. Adele is not the one to use as an example because she is brilliant.
I’m crying. I hate that talent like this is often overlooked. This is pure gold, shes gold her voice is a gift. She doesn’t get the recognition she deserves. This took my breath away, 11, 11...
Me too. I love her so much!! She is talented and beautiful but Hollywood…white and BLACK is full of aholes and don’t celebrate you if you don’t fit their mold or box or if you don’t run around naked looking like a nasty stripper. But my girl glew up anyways so that means her talent is even more amazing
She is not overlooked. Did you hear the audience? Do you hear the audiences around the world who adore her? Let’s stop overlooking the level of appreciation she already has and reducing success to exposure, income and accolades.
Like Aretha Franklin and Donnie Hathaway, Jazmine Sullivan comes from a planet where children are born with their gifts fully developed...she is phenomenal.....extraordinary.....singular talent...
She needs to do the live Play/Musical.. there is a following that would JUMP At the chance JUST CAUSE THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS VIDEO.. ....I am them. They are me. Yes. Me. ...lol.
@1:50 she turnt up and then @2:15 she hit a gear that left me questioning what the actual fuck i was witnessing because that performance was supernatural! this performance proves reincarnation to me because the emotion is her voice is not only unfathomable but seldom experienced before your upper teens! i get goosebumps every single time i find my way back to this small glimpse of absolute perfection from a child prodigy 😫👐🏾🙌🏾👏🏾🙏🏾the run @2:39 was so unbelievable yo
Am I the only one crying from this video, omg when she hit that run at 2:51 I just started crying uncontrollably... omg I love you Jazmine Sullivan... u have soooo much talent
Oh my God! I cry every time I see this. How can she have such knowledge of deep emotions at that age to sing that so well? This is talent straight from God.
These are vocal runs executed properly, for maximum emotional expression and depth. Alot of artists who have the vocal agility to do this, do not employ them with the tact and timing that Jazmine Sullivan at age 11 does here.
This video makes me cry everytime I watch it!!! The control she had at this age is AMAZING!!! I love how she gives us Broadway then sends us to church!!
that's a damn shame that girl had a voice like that at age 11, sorry to say it but Jasmine putting all these overrated chicks to shame today. she should be right where they at right now!!! and they got old childhood performances that they did from back in the day too!!! I know everybody different in all but these chicks out today can't touch jasmine that's how you know it's some low down dirty underhanded shit going on in the industry today smmfh.
Ritamae Smith, best comment ever!!! This is how you know Jasmine has it over so many, she was freakin 11!!!!!! and her voice was already rich and seasoned. Like at 11 she was already where a lot of these overrated singers think they are now...she's surpassed sooo many. She's a sangers singer for sure. She's at the level of Lalah Hathaway and Rachelle Ferrell. There's a lot of popular singers that can sing but aren't at that level yet and will probably never ever get there. She uses her voice like an instrument, just like Billy Holiday, Lalah Hathaway and Rachelle Ferrell.
She has wisdom, depth, and heart behind her voice that is FAR beyond her years. The purity of her youth adds so much to the message - what a gift of a video
I mean, imagine witnessing this irl? And thank God someone recorded it. I keep coming back to check it's actually real. An 11 year old with this level of vocal mastery is freakish - I've watched it so many times and get so emotional every time. As someone in the comments said, she was born with her talent fully developed, never heard anything like it. I feel blessed to be alive at the same time as Jazmine, what an absolute gift to us she is.
It’s hard to choose between 11 year old Jazmine’s rendition and 19 year old Whitney’s cover of this song. Both of them blow their versions out of the water. Whitney’s still gives me goosebumps.
I just cried like a baby watching this because her gift was already visibly undeniable at 11. Prodigy. Thank God her gift is nurtured and is now shared with the rest of the world!
Watching her so young pushing that sound from the diaphragm. .controlled breathing...dnt forget the delivery of every lyric so defined to the story she is portraying. ..as if she has Dorthy's exact story in her hear..A standing ovation for Jazmine for a heart wrenching performance! .."..like yours, like MINE, LIKE HOME!!!
She sings better at 11 than even some pretty good singers. I'm sorry, but this sounds to me better than even Adele today. Jazmine Sullivan is just extremely talented.
but really though. who can't sing better than britney spears? jennifer lopez too, two fairly average singers. they can sorta sing, that's about it. so many talented singers you could have mentioned that she's better than at only 11.
When I tell you I watch this video AT LEAST once a month and 3x in one sitting I’m so serious. It always makes me appreciate Jazz so much more she is truly underrated and one of the best to ever do it.
Same girl. I always find my way back to this video and it brings me to tears every-time. The power behind her voice at such a young age will never cease to amaze me. That is an anointed gift.
i am literally incapable of watching this video once all the way through and moving on.. i’m always rewinding and rewinding and going back to certain parts then going back again lollll its a 3 minute video but i easily spend at least 15 minutes watching it every time i come back to it she is the truth
I'm not, I have been a fan of this video for a very long time, but I recently found Breaking Down the Riffs, and when I read the description, I was like, "If she isn't doing one from Jazmine Sullivan singing Home at age 11, she isn't doing this right!!" I searched it and was was so stoked to find it! Now BDTR is growing on me.
If I was invited to a grade school musical presentation and suddenly was blessed to experience a phenomenally talented child like this I would’ve saved the date on my calendar with the title “a star is born” or “greatness discovered” absolutely superb!
Good morning Camille, thank you for sharing this video with me. I've never heard of Jazmine . Sorry to say I'm giving up my computer next week, But I'll stay abreast @ the library. Have a good wk.end keep up your grades. xoxoxox. Adrienne
I'm sure there were auditions for this role in the school play. If I was one of them lil kids that wanted to audition and saw that Jazmine was who I'd be up against I would just leave and let her have it. 😂 SHE TAKES THE THRONE #aintnocompetitionbihhhh
Imagine being invited to a grade school musical to support your uncoordinated tone deaf nephew, and are surprised with this legendary performance.
😂omg I am in tears 🤣 😂.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
The fact that Jazmine was just 11 yet could deliver such complex vocal runs perfectly on pitch is unbelievable; *definitely a musical prodigy!*
GarageStudio exactly. I’m so blown away
GarageStudio I agree! Where is her marketing?
GarageStudio exactly. A lot of kids show potential at young ages, you can hear it, but many didn't have much vocal control or understanding of their voices. This is amazing
She's simply is not marketable because of this efffed up societies proximity to eurocentric appearance that's why She's not where she deserves to be
And to be honest we have ourselves as black folks to blame
rest assured no elementary school musical has ever gone that hard before or since
Definitely
I've been to quite a few shows and these kids are talented man. Blows my mind how they're so talented and I can't even hold a note. God bless them.
Mine did...we went really hard...wish I had video to show you.
Truer things have never been said.
No other elementary or middle school has ever had anyone quite like that little girl.
Jazmine sings Home like she wrote the damn song, how can someone be that good at 11?
exactly!
Right 😭😭 she's such an amazing singer
😂
She was born a prodigy.. Have you seen vids of like 4 year olds play the piano or guitar like a fully trained professional.. There prodigys.. She was born with the ability to quickly learn how to fully control her voice at a very young age...
Right ahahaha. She sang it like she did everything, composed and lyricist LOL.
When them black folks started clapping like they was in church.......... We will always do us!
+Tj Fields They cant help thats what a true voice full of soul sounds like it makes you get up!!
+Tj Fields Well she took them there!
😂😂😂😂
Damn right! You know how we do 😂😂😂😂
Tj Fields " Like they was " I think what you meant to say was " As if they were in Church." Please work on your grammer.
The fact that it took her until 2021 to win a Grammy makes me so mad! SHE IS SO UNDERATED
I think bcz she didnt sell her soul! smh it looks so long!!
The fuckening of it all
Grammys mean nothing many greats are not awarded tis life
@@cyyrious at the end of the day, yes, Grammys don’t define artist, but that doesn’t make it any less unfair! There are artist that just got on the scene winning 6 Grammys a night, and it took Jaz over 10 years to get one. That is crazy!

I would have thrown both my shoes and everyone else's. Lol
She was 11..... 11. What. The. Hell.

I get chills then frost Bitten by the star power she had at 11. She sung it like she experienced something in her life. Felt every word

More like 0:45

Tee Jay, whyyyyyyyy!!!! lolololololol, I'm crying....lololol
At least when their on beat
and when they clap on the 2 and 4 rather than the 1 and 3... lol

Even at age 11 she was more vocally talented than 90% of the artist in the music industry today.... truly amazing!!!! God's gift to the music world...
90% in an under-estimate
Underrated
99%
💯💯💯
I’m crying. I hate that talent like this is often overlooked. This is pure gold, shes gold her voice is a gift. She doesn’t get the recognition she deserves. This took my breath away, 11, 11...
Her last album has helped to change that and her Grammy wins. I was able to see her in concert this year and it was an amazing show.
Me too

She is not overlooked. Did you hear the audience? Do you hear the audiences around the world who adore her? Let’s stop overlooking the level of appreciation she already has and reducing success to exposure, income and accolades.
The audience clapping was her cue to just annihilate this song. She was like "It's the last song of the night, let me give these people a REAL show!"
Yes! she.cut.up
It’s true. Something about when you know your people are supporting you. Marvelous!
I'm gonna go hide under rock and reevaluate the last 23 yrs of my life.
LMBO 😂😂😂😆😅😅😅
Carole Rogers me too😂😂
Carole Rogers wow yes
Lmao
I though the same thinggggg, like howww
she sang this better than ANY ADULT I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!
Only 1 adult was able to cover this song flawlessly, Whitney.
Stephanie Mills sure did and can As a teen and continues to sing this song flawlessly.
Stephanie Mills for Sure
Melinda
Better than Stephanie Mills & Diana Ross @ only 11 yrs old.
Jasmine sullivan sing so good, i bet you didn't even notice that the tin man was wearing an oven roaster pan from the local dollar store lmaoooo.
I've watched this video a 100 times and just noticed it. Lmao
🤣🤣🤣
respect the budget lmaooo 💀
I watch this video so many times and now I gotta go back to see what you talking about 😂😂😂
5 years later and I'm just noticing 😂😂😂
2:39 i couldnt even unfrown my face..Her runs should have sent her straight home without clicking her heels..good lawdtty
Aplustradomus it's probably not intentional, but that pun hahaha
EGGZACTLYYYYY
That run was a fluent sentence!!!!!! I replay it often!!!!!
Hitting those runs at 11 is insane!! I just love her. Just watched the Wiz and had to come back to this
I just did the EXTRA same thing. Jazz's rendition WINS tho...imo...lol.🤷🏾♂️🤣💯💪🏾❤️😊
Child prodigies. What god makes when he feels like showing off.
TUH!!!! OK?!?!?! U GOT THAT RIGHT!!!!!
She was slaying grown women at 11!!! She is so underrated. I love her
Jazmine is sooooooooooooo so so so so sooooooooooooo UNDERRATED!!!
She made history with this one. One of the best renditions. If not the best.
Amazing!!
Whitney’s cover of this song is just as amazing.
Stephanie Mills should be proud of this redemption of "Home"Ms. Sullivan put a lot of fire into this cover.
And at 11 y.o. 🤯
Not THE BEST but a good one no one I mean NO ONE does it like Steph
that runs on “to find” and “like mine” always kill me.. always. 😩🙌🏾

How the hell you got riffs n runs at 11?!?!?! Her voice....anointed!!! She and Ms. Burrell need to collaborate
They tried to keep that clap going, but she hypnotized them all with those runs. 👏
I literally cry tears everytime she hits the "like miiiIIIIIIiiiiiiIIIIInnnnnneEEE! Like HOMEEE!" *clicks baby heels* 😭

Jazmine Sullivan has so much passion, so much heart in this song. Unbelievable! Raw, real..... I'm sorry Diana Ross you just don't hold a candle ..
INSANITYYYYYYYYY how is she not the biggest artist in the industry right now? this left me with tears, some god given talent right there❤️
Watching her so young pushing that sound from the diaphragm. .controlled breathing...dnt forget the delivery of every lyric so defined to the story she is portraying. ..as if she has Dorthy's exact story in her hear..A standing ovation for Jazmine for a heart wrenching performance! .."..like yours, like MINE, LIKE HOME!!!
It makes me tear up every time I watch this.
Shanee Eaves I still tear up even now
Me three!!!! I absolutely love her!!!!
No matter how many times I watch and listen, it always gets me emotional and proud!
When your 11 but can sing better than Jennifer Lopez and Britney Spears
...and Taylor Swift, and Miley...I'm sure the list is endless lol...
That's so true but so sad ain't it???
moesha pempengco seriously you just named two auto tone queens
She sings better at 11 than even some pretty good singers. I'm sorry, but this sounds to me better than even Adele today. Jazmine Sullivan is just extremely talented.
but really though. who can't sing better than britney spears? jennifer lopez too, two fairly average singers. they can sorta sing, that's about it. so many talented singers you could have mentioned that she's better than at only 11.
i cant believe she sounded like this at 11. most 20 and 30 something year old singers cant even touch this.
When I tell you I watch this video AT LEAST once a month and 3x in one sitting I’m so serious. It always makes me appreciate Jazz so much more she is truly underrated and one of the best to ever do it.
Same girl. I always find my way back to this video and it brings me to tears every-time. The power behind her voice at such a young age will never cease to amaze me. That is an anointed gift.
Yep always come back
i am literally incapable of watching this video once all the way through and moving on.. i’m always rewinding and rewinding and going back to certain parts then going back again lollll its a 3 minute video but i easily spend at least 15 minutes watching it every time i come back to it
she is the truth
You absolutely CANNOT pay to get talent like that! That is raw GOD GIVEN talent.... OMG...her voice... And her riffs..... ASDFBFFGDHF!!!!!
At 11 I was pencil fighting and peeling glue off of my hands. Lol... amazing talent.
🤣🤣🤣😅
Who's here because of "Breaking down the riffs" with Natalie Weiss? :D
I'm not, I have been a fan of this video for a very long time, but I recently found Breaking Down the Riffs, and when I read the description, I was like, "If she isn't doing one from Jazmine Sullivan singing Home at age 11, she isn't doing this right!!" I searched it and was was so stoked to find it! Now BDTR is growing on me.
haha me
meee
This singing is absolute perfection. The runs and power... Wow
If I was invited to a grade school musical presentation and suddenly was blessed to experience a phenomenally talented child like this I would’ve saved the date on my calendar with the title “a star is born” or “greatness discovered” absolutely superb!
This is truly one of those vocal wonder moments...unbelievable the skill at that age!
Have watched this a thousand times and hit the nasty face every time! Unbelievable!!!
Good morning Camille, thank you for sharing this video with me. I've never heard of Jazmine . Sorry to say I'm giving up my computer next week, But I'll stay abreast @ the library. Have a good wk.end keep up your grades. xoxoxox. Adrienne
She sounds like a grown woman at 11 years old!!! Damn!!!!! I still think she has one of the best voices out there. Love to hear her sing.
The amount of times I’ve watched this, and cried is unhealthy.
The note of pure soul she hit in 1:55 I literally got up and ran outside to get some ai,r its was getting hot!
She’s been a phenomenal vocalist!!! They wouldn’t give her any awards until she lost weight, Rifuckindiculous!!! She’s the best!!!
I'm sure there were auditions for this role in the school play. If I was one of them lil kids that wanted to audition and saw that Jazmine was who I'd be up against I would just leave and let her have it. 😂 SHE TAKES THE THRONE #aintnocompetitionbihhhh
