Each note used appropriately and with musicality, if not always with the greatest purity but that is the way of Popular Music, and different songs bring out the same notes with an infinite variety of tone. I will not be alive when Janelle hits 60, but when she starts doing career highlights shows they better have a few weeks of studio time to cover all that she will have done by then. You ain't seen nothin' yet...
This girl is phenemonal!! I love how she is finally getting the credit she deserves in the U.S. but damn I want her to be a worldwide smash!! I like GaGa and all but Janelle shows you can be eccentric and unqiue without being offensive or overly-sexual!
@CaptChrisT Well she actually sustained it for more than 5 seconds, so it most definitely counts. And its from her EP, The Audition. Just Google, Janelle Monae The Audition, and it will give you several download links.
Told ya it was just under 4 octaves, lol. Love her though, her vocals be on point! 1 thing I can say about Diddy is he get his artist right together, they have some of the greatest most elaborate & technical vocal ranges, hence: Danity Kane, Day 26, Janell, & that girl Sarah from Da Band who he had Betty Wright trying to teach her the whistle register. She's a vocal beast!
I don't think people should be allowed to belt that high. Mostly because it makes everyone so jealous, but also because it's too easy to mistake for a whistle note! God put too much talent into her
@abcsweet she's most likely a Dramatic mezzo-soprano. Her voice is VERY versatile so its really hard to classify. But what top notes are you listening to? They are far from poor.
Is there a difference between a spitno mezzo and a dramatic mezzo? I know both have metalic tones but I thought Spinto's had a more light weight voice than dramatics. A textbook dramatic mezzo in pop is Anastacia. In gospel, you have Tasha Cobs.
are there any other artists with such a good vocal range and sense of theatrics? soooo tired of all these female artists mumbling. I know no one can compare to Janelle but any suggestions would be helpful

I love her voice it's jazzy with a little hint of opera.

She is a Soprano, not a Mezzo.
She's a Light Lyric Soorano
thisguy38 She really is! She's got a great chest voice range.
+thisguy38 She sounds hybrid to me sometimes mezzo, sometimes soprano it's weird.
Might be a dugazon
That C7 is amazing!! She so gifted!

Love Janelle Monae! Beautiful voice!
Even though she was hoarse recording Come Alive, that "not cute" C7 will make your ears "come alive" if you wasnt paying attention. Lol
@iWurk It's cool, you still did a fantastic job putting this video together :)
beautiful voice
@VaunTV She said she recorded the song in one take while she was hoarse lol... I don't think she wanted to be cute.
in 1:26 the most beautiful C5 i've heard!!
Her chest voice is high as hell. I wish my range would hit the 6
That scream in Come Alive is epic.
I love Janelle and her voice!
I think I heard a C#3 in "Oh, Maker," right on the word "and" in "And in the corners of my mind" of the opening verse.

@RedSimba88 You're right. As Monica said... "I must not have been paying attention" lol But it only adds one more note so its not that big of a deal
@BlackLightning20101 Dramatic is concentrated on strength and power while sprinto is concentrating on agility grace technicallity

Wow!! I like her style!!!
My bad. I messed up the first one lol

God put too much talent into her
@AaliyahDawnTEAM LMAOOOO funny you mention her. I've been working on her's for some weeks now.
she got voice boii look here
Not many can fuck with her.
Sounds like she belted in G5 at the end
@abcsweet she's most likely a Dramatic mezzo-soprano. Her voice is VERY versatile so its really hard to classify. But what top notes are you listening to? They are far from poor.
love love love this
Not to mention she also raps
Who is her supported vocal range? Please
Did she just made the highest belt I've ever heard?
@iWurk oh..ok.
@abcsweet What's the difference between spinto and dramatic?
You mislabeled the "woah" at the beginning of "Tightrope." It's an Eb5, not an E5.
She has to be cindi!
lol good job.
1:42 that's not janelle hitting that E5 it's Big Boi
lol it's her, whatch her LIVE

Montrez Rambo there is is no such thing as a spinto mezzo
