it's amazing. if you watch some d'angelo live videos from the 90s you will hear Anthony's unforgettable voice as one of his background singers! a beautiful circle
Anthony Hamilton is a hot bowl of grits on a chilly Monday morning. He’s a plate of butter beans w/ neck bones & white rice in Grandmama’s kitchen. He’s Deep South country, and I love & appreciate every bit of it. Carolina thru & thru!
@@jreyno264 T-Pain can sing without autotune. He just uses it for effect. Honestly I prefer him without autotune. But for nostalgia, he’s the only exception since he’s a good singer without it
Thats true since we dont have the late and great Gerald Levert no more Anthony is indeed a great hand off to us folks. A true Gem. The brother is unik.
Man his song “Cool” hits hard especially during these times of crisis. It took me back to when my wife had just given birth to our newborn and We had only $30 to last the week. We looked at each other and knew we could make it work. We only needed our love and each other. Now we are cool. Edit: Wow thank you everyone for the love and support. Quick update, my family is blessed and very well. At the end of the day love wins and I hope you all find love and light in these times of darkness.
Aww yes those days! With our newborn we had $10 to last 3 days. It did and we did nearly 10 years later 😍 thanks for the reminder of the tough times when all we had was love and it was more than enough. Blessings to you and your family as well.
Nah when baby face brought Avery and chante Moore he packed everyone’s bags for them. Chante is blessed beyond even Beyoncé. Avery is same thing. Better than anyone
Thumbs down folks are just negative sad people. Gotta feel sorry for haters. Anthony Hamilton is one of those singers who don't need music to sing. Just gifted to the max.
This is probably one of the most important Tiny Desk Concerts I've seen. Especially when I take into account Anthony Hamilton's legacy as an American soul singer.
I'm a death metal loving white nerdy atheist; Anthony Hamilton and The Hamiltones' skill and emotive transcend music to another level. You had me nodding and grooving; loving respect where it is due, my friends.Thank you, and thank you to NPR.
Mr Anthony Hamilton, enough said! His musical genius permeates and voice is grandiose. Add songwriting talents, blew me away. At 65 years old I still groove to you.
Since it isn't already listed in the video, the names of the musicians are: Anthony Hamilton - Vocals Parris Bowens - Keys Lamont Mccains - Bass Chris Kee - Drums Tony Lelo - Guitar J. Vito - Backing Vocals (White Shirt) Corey Williams II - Backing Vocals (Beard)
Got to see The Hamiltones two years ago at a music festival I was also playing at in Canada. I was walking through the festival grounds and was drawn into the best rendition of Let's Stay Together I've ever heard. That crowd was eating it up for 10 minutes. I almost cried it was so good. They were my favorite act at that festival.
Anthony is the best Saw him on Mother’s Day In INGLEWOOD California. The Frankie Beverly Farewell Tour. Anthony Broke Charlene all the WAY DOWN 🌹🌹🌹🩵🎵🩷🙌🏻🌹🎤🎤🎤

I love how his crew is so humble and low key with their image. Not too flashy, just some everyday dudes. Anthony and his team are like soul food; filling and relaxing. I've seen him perform in Atlanta and he was phenomenal.
Yeees seen him on Christmas night in Charlotte. He seen I was nervous watching him dance with others after the concert, and came and grabbed me to dance since I wasn't going over there lol. Best night of my life!!!!!
Absolutely they are awesome! Vocals style and all. Somebody posted on here that the brownskin tall one look like he would help you take your hair down. Too funny. "Bae can you help me take these braids out?" 😄
This dude here...Man listen he should just record live and don't waste any time going into a booth. Machines can't do anything for this dudes voice they just take away. He is a throwback artist where they sound better live and organic.
+Stanley B I agree. From what I've heard of his studio stuff, it seems like he's got the same issue as john legend. Too many sequenced drums/overproduced in general. I do love the arrangement on "do you feel me" which seems have real drums on it!
+Stanley B Right?I have listened to his albums and the type of production was so different from the lively exploding performance here...but damn what they gave here is a lesson in musicianship and performance!
One of the only singers on the planet the sounds even better outta production; his live performances are SO full of life, love & imperfect perfection. Geeez! His songs are always so personal, passionate and with purpose. AMAZING! God keep Blessing you family!
This cat has been honing his craft for decades...he gives his all to every aspect of his music. The musical and vocal arrangements are a singular phenomena. The fact he can deliver such force and nuance is a testimony to the control he wields over his instrument. A unique yet familiar funk with his own signature seasoning, is refreshing and leaves you fulfilled, thrilled and wanting more.
Anthony is that old soul voice that’s just not appreciated enough today. Mr. Hamilton will always be dope to me. I was too excited to see him on tiny desk.
So true lol I started falling in love with these NPRs and stopped liking the recorded versions.. I thought it was Bcuz I'm getting older but hey.. I'm only 38..the new 20s child
This one is amazing!! I'm afraid most modern music production fails to capture so much of the raw, soulful talent that artists like this have. (computers/proTools/infinite non-destructive editing don't help the cause)
People curse to express their feelings in their music and everyone is different In their own way... and it’s awesome no one want copycat that’s why I love this generation 🦋🌞 also love Anthony Hamilton:
His background singers always look like the guys at the barbershop just hanging out you just never know that they got that voice on them until they sing. They are the truth so talented and so laid back with it.
See, as human beings we too often look at the outward appearance of others and miss out on some of the greatest blessings God wanted to bestow upon us.
Look for Ravi Zacharias on RUclips, he has a lot of stuff that can shepherd you to consider believing. Or if you are the really complicated type you can check out a 6hr discussion between Jordan Peterson and Sam Harris broken in to 2 hr sessions in Vancouver, Dublin and London. Good luck with your journey.
Fine as wine..When he said “thank you” I said “you welcome” like he was standing &singing in bedroom😂🤣😂Whew Lord👄 He makes the best songs &have a beautiful voice..so much soul!!
i'm 22 and my mum used to play these songs when she was taking us to school in the morning growing up. now i'm here and i cant get enough of the music from back then. it reminds me of simpler times.
Kids here is real talent. you can't manufacture this sound.. the voice comes out like honey, lyrics on flawless. why arent these guys getting primetime play?
I'm in my 40's and been to dozens of concerts in my life.. His was the best.. just raw talent.. no frills.. the best concert ever...... Ty Mr Hamilton, I cherish it

Awesome Anthony Hamilton. God’s Hands is on his life 👣👣👣🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🎵🩷🩵🌹🌹🌹🌹🎤
Takes me back to when family got together for cards, music and food.
No auto tune, no special effects, just performers vibing. This is REAL music
What u saying tpain didn’t go off
@@jreyno264 T-Pain can sing without autotune. He just uses it for effect. Honestly I prefer him without autotune. But for nostalgia, he’s the only exception since he’s a good singer without it
@@jreyno264 tpains is one of the best tiny desk
Facts!
No disrepect to any other other artist out there, but Mr. Hamilton is one of the best singers we got...
Thats true since we dont have the late and great Gerald Levert no more Anthony is indeed a great hand off to us folks. A true Gem. The brother is unik.
Carolina sole
He is a grown ass man with a grown ass voice. He's our Teddy Pendergrass our Peabo, our Dramatics and so on...............
As for me, he is THE best !!
Forgot Alexander they need a play with the songs from Anthony 😂🤣
Why do his TWO background singers sound full like a whole group!!!!!! Sang it brothers!!!!
More than the two was singing guy with the guitar too they so talented
The Hamiltones,.. they 🔥🔥....you should hear the one with K Ci "chitterlings and rice" 😂
It’s actually 3 of them.. Tony Lelo is on lead guitar
Yyeeess
Yess, even with the others singer as well his TWO background singers were a whole vibe!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
His background singers are SO gifted 💕
The hamiltones they fire
Ye, they are awesome, love them.
@@a1bread83 How can I contact them? I'm an artist
Them boys know they bad too. Having fun
The Hamiltones.
Man his song “Cool” hits hard especially during these times of crisis. It took me back to when my wife had just given birth to our newborn and We had only $30 to last the week. We looked at each other and knew we could make it work. We only needed our love and each other.
Now we are cool.

Aww yes those days! With our newborn we had $10 to last 3 days. It did and we did nearly 10 years later 😍 thanks for the reminder of the tough times when all we had was love and it was more than enough. Blessings to you and your family as well.
LOVE THIS 👑
Love at it’s Best✨

Mmmlj mmm I l y

His backing singers and musicians are fire! This entire video blew me away. No auto tune. Pure talent!
No auto tune alright! Pure, wholesome talent!
Nothing but talent❤️💋
The drummer's on fire too!
Yes Indeed! I’ve been to several of his concerts & his back ground singers are 🔥🔥🔥
They’re the Hamiltones and are on Spotify.
Probably the best back up vocalists in tiny desk history
The Hamiltones are the truth
Babyface just killed that idea LoL!
Nah when baby face brought Avery and chante Moore he packed everyone’s bags for them. Chante is blessed beyond even Beyoncé. Avery is same thing. Better than anyone
They are brilliant but cannot forget Charlie's Angel s. Gem u.k
U gotta hear Charlie Wilson's performance too. His backup singers have on point vocals too
Even his hat got soul
Lol
Too much damn swag in one room. I love #blackness
Haha
I swear, it's trembling to the beat, lol.
@@divadoll606 lolol
you cant teach background vocals like that --- southern homegrown. wow
I had no idea they were the background singers until they SANG!
Yeeesss! Backup is killing it!
Straight churchin right there!
It was on point.
They’ve got their own album now, Hamiltones! Amazing in concert with Hamilton too!!!
His backup singers. 🔥🔥🔥
Listen here🔥
Shuu🔥🔥🔥
The Hamiltones 🔥🔥
yes they are absolutely amazing!!!
It’s 4am and I’m up listening to this with my wife. December 23, 2023. It’s a Vibe
Making memories
Whoever works in that office building has the BEST job!
So soulful 🔥👏🏾
Word!
For real...for real....I would actually be on damn time for once-everyday if I worked there!! lol
Wonder if they hiring?
SERIALLY..................
The 1.7K people that gave this a thumbs down don't know true music. This is amazingly great music. A live band is unheard of these days.
For real Regina!!! Folks are crazy. They don’t music line we do girl. This concert is everything!!! My daughter was on to him before I was an Im 50+
Must be one person clicking 1,7k times for unknown reason
Thumbs down folks are just negative sad people. Gotta feel sorry for haters. Anthony Hamilton is one of those singers who don't need music to sing. Just gifted to the max.
Facts
Trust me they know it's great music they're just... well never mind.
This is probably one of the most important Tiny Desk Concerts I've seen. Especially when I take into account Anthony Hamilton's legacy as an American soul singer.
Andrew DiMarzo I also loved Raphael Saddiq's.
100% agree
yes!!!!!!!!
This was excellent, they can truly sing this live no clean ups needed. Great performance thanks for sharing
2023 and still bumpin this frequently. Who's with me?
Me
I’ve just discovered this so it’s 2023 and beyond.
2024
2024 🫶🏾
No doubt 💯☝🏿✊🏿👏🏿
I'm a death metal loving white nerdy atheist; Anthony Hamilton and The Hamiltones' skill and emotive transcend music to another level. You had me nodding and grooving; loving respect where it is due, my friends.Thank you, and thank you to NPR.

🤣👍🏼
The backup singers were perfect. They missed nothing. Absolute perfection
They definitely understood the assignment
Vedo and Eric Bellinger did great in Ushers
So did Tyler, The Creators backup singers
Mr Anthony Hamilton, enough said! His musical genius permeates and voice is grandiose. Add songwriting talents, blew me away. At 65 years old I still groove to you.
Mr. Hamilton's voice makes me want to be loved and curled up with said loved one.
D’Angelo, Maxwell, Musiq, and Eric Benet need their own Tiny Desk concert!
Yes all of them!
And Darius Rucker!
Kindred the Family Soul
YES!!!!!!!
If they invite me, I will show up! 🤪

Tony Lelo is singing backs too.
Anthony Hamilton's voice is profoundly different and resonates with you long after the song ends.
Evette Ferguson sounds like a rougher version of Dino Conners from H-Town to me
Correct!!! This video was sooooo good until I had to replay it! 👍👍
Carolina voice rooted soul

And still in that ooorrdddeerr!!!
2024 and this is still one of the top10 tiny desk
possibly the most underrated singer/songwriter ever.
John Weiler he’s not underrated at all lol he gets all his props hunny
Him, Ledisi, Alice Smith, Laura Izibor, and just about anyone out there that doesn't dance half naked.
Definitely underrated! I Love him!
I mean, he won a Grammy......but ooook lol
Just cause he's not in a TV show or on the cover of a magazine, doesn't mean he's underrated. Fans of music are well aware
background vocals is lit. they was singing they ass off.
lowkey yet so profound
Yesuuur
This is the ArchBishop of Soul....real talk....And the Band and Background singers are all Clergymen....
perfect description
I love how his crew is so humble and low key with their image. Not too flashy, just some everyday dudes. Anthony and his team are like soul food; filling and relaxing. I've seen him perform in Atlanta and he was phenomenal.
Shon Irving - wish I could see him!! Love his voice!!
Yesss I saw him twice and he did not disappoint not one time
He was performing in South Africa on the 25th August 2018.
All I can say is what a night, what a performance!
Yeees seen him on Christmas night in Charlotte. He seen I was nervous watching him dance with others after the concert, and came and grabbed me to dance since I wasn't going over there lol. Best night of my life!!!!!
Man Charlene hit differently. After so many years, it's still a beautiful song. Talented singers.
Especially when u can relate to the song.
@@jamiashoffler5426yessssd
I was looking for time stamps for this one.
THIS IS THAT SOUL SHIT THAT THE WORLD NEEDS TO HEAR!!!
+Kevin Malone yes indeed sir, but the media want to tell us Adele and Sam Smith are, not for me.
Helena Prince
So true.
Him and Anderson .Paak
those backup singers are on point! They really add to the soul of AH's songs

Too Funny! But I definitely agree!
Anthony Hamilton make you believe in love. His spirit is so vibrant and beautiful
Bessie Mcgee but Charlene made me sad 😔
Can we please acknowledge the exceptional background harmonies??? They did that! 🙌🏽❤️

Absolutely!!!
those fellas are killing it!
Those back up singers are on point too.
Yall are so blessed....
The Hamiltones
Rightttt that’s why I love it they were vibing and he let them
Love 💘 them
AMEN😊😊😊
I'm still into It ,EXCELLENT performance
This dude here...Man listen he should just record live and don't waste any time going into a booth. Machines can't do anything for this dudes voice they just take away. He is a throwback artist where they sound better live and organic.
Ab. So. Lute. Ly.
+Stanley B I agree. From what I've heard of his studio stuff, it seems like he's got the same issue as john legend. Too many sequenced drums/overproduced in general. I do love the arrangement on "do you feel me" which seems have real drums on it!
+Robert Ledet right, some people voices are just too rich for a machine to capture. So many to name that get caught in that issue.
+Stanley B
Right?I have listened to his albums and the type of production was so different from the lively exploding performance here...but damn what they gave here is a lesson in musicianship and performance!
+Stanley B True! He doesn't need anything fancy. Just live instruments and a mic and it's perfect.
One of the only singers on the planet the sounds even better outta production; his live performances are SO full of life, love & imperfect perfection. Geeez! His songs are always so personal, passionate and with purpose. AMAZING! God keep Blessing you family!
Agreed
This man is incredible. If you dislike this video, you're 100% tripping.

This cat has been honing his craft for decades...he gives his all to every aspect of his music. The musical and vocal arrangements are a singular phenomena. The fact he can deliver such force and nuance is a testimony to the control he wields over his instrument. A unique yet familiar funk with his own signature seasoning, is refreshing and leaves you fulfilled, thrilled and wanting more.
Anthony is that old soul voice that’s just not appreciated enough today. Mr. Hamilton will always be dope to me. I was too excited to see him on tiny desk.
I believe he has peace he like to be at home with his family....he's making money off every sing he wrote .
i feel like everyone's npr performances are better than their actual songs
Lucas Scott tru
same. Anderson.Paaks npr arrangements are better than the actual ones
So true lol I started falling in love with these NPRs and stopped liking the recorded versions.. I thought it was Bcuz I'm getting older but hey.. I'm only 38..the new 20s child
This one is amazing!! I'm afraid most modern music production fails to capture so much of the raw, soulful talent that artists like this have. (computers/proTools/infinite non-destructive editing don't help the cause)
No restrictions, can be free an themselves!
SOUUUULLLL !! No subliminal stage set up, No unusual dress codes, no derogatory lyrics, no autotune .. just pure talent. Lasts a lifetime
Brooklyn Bak truth!!
People curse to express their feelings in their music and everyone is different In their own way... and it’s awesome no one want copycat that’s why I love this generation 🦋🌞 also love Anthony Hamilton:
I meet Mr. Hamilton after a concert in Maryland. He's a Real Brother!
damn.. his voice, the backup singers, the band.. everything is perfect.. not to forget that cardigan

This brother has such a recognizable voice. Love it
When your background singer are better than 90% of the people played on the radio.
Amen
Keep Onliving exactly 🤣
That part!
Does anyone know their names?
its always like that
His background singers always look like the guys at the barbershop just hanging out you just never know that they got that voice on them until they sing. They are the truth so talented and so laid back with it.
Cool seeing a bunch of brothers together doing their thing.
I know veto
See, as human beings we too often look at the outward appearance of others and miss out on some of the greatest blessings God wanted to bestow upon us.
The Good thing abt his bck up Singers is tht you can see that these Guys are having fun like dammmm ... lolololol
The instrumentalists and his backup singers though!!👌
He looks and sounds amazing. The band and background singers are exquisite too❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sweet Jesus I love Anthony Hamilton and the Hamiltones...they could sing Mary Had a Little Lamb and I would be just as mesmerized...

fairy bliss We all believe in something sweetheart
true, for example, i believe you misunderstood the point of the post. lol
Look for Ravi Zacharias on RUclips, he has a lot of stuff that can shepherd you to consider believing. Or if you are the really complicated type you can check out a 6hr discussion between Jordan Peterson and Sam Harris broken in to 2 hr sessions in Vancouver, Dublin and London. Good luck with your journey.
The entire band are natural born killerz! The performance is fire from start to finish!
Please bring Anthony BACK he has many more hits. Like “Can’t Let Go”should’ve been on here
Homeboy in the white shirt and black beanie, is my whole vibe while watching this!
He's a whole mood. I love when people can FEEL the music.
Yess!! That's how u know it's good music! 💃🏾💃🏾
I thought it was Al Harrington former NBA star lol!
It's like he is free in his singing like society tried to hold him back but he did not let that happen...he's the vibe for sure
So true! And he chewing gum singing like that!
that drummer in Amen laying down one handed 16th notes like a fuckin beat machine damn silky smooth

You know that stank face you make when a song hits you in the soul? Had that face through out the whole damn video.

That Deep South sound! Mr. Hamilton simply awesome!
Those harmonies are on point...
+Rich Mash ... They're so "on point," that I imagine even Tom Ashbrook would approve ;)
+Matthew Garcia lol yesssss
It's ridiculous at this point. Like how can they harmonize so well and live too!

Same here! Remember them taking me and my brother to school playing him and John Legend. Man this brings back good memories.
Same her! Mamas was jamming we didn’t even know it back then 🙄

Kids here is real talent. you can't manufacture this sound.. the voice comes out like honey, lyrics on flawless. why arent these guys getting primetime play?
Good question, isn't it?
