kyla Diamond I promise I was thinking the same thing, lol black soul/funk/r&b music is like the BBQ, of the food world; everybody love it but they dont like it all the time!
it's a known fact that the physical makeup of black people make us better singers. that's just basic pedagogy. That shouldn't suggest their aren't many phenomenal singers of other backgrounds though!
Correction, Nicki Minaj fan her, Kim murdered everything about her performance. I got first time I heard “wanna rumble with the 🐝 huh, bzzzz throw a hex on the whole family” vibes.
Ntuzun Kaurintah RIGHT !!! I don’t think ppl understand how mindblowing this is lol but I take Queen Patti as one of the legends that really take care of herself hence staying hella active on DWTS and the masked singer 💜
@@sistamaryclarence yes Queen Patti is a true legend,many artist lost their voice with age,but she has shown no signs of slowing down hitting G5 at such age and her high head voice and falsetto which she does even now is mind blowing,she is the best,all artist should look up to her.
Ntuzun Kaurintah i definitely agree with this entire comment ... I’m still blown away by her being on the masked singer with that big costume on and still hitting those signature notes lol
My favourite thing about this is that no one was trying to out-sing anyone! Amber had the respect to let Miss Patti do her thing, as a legend! But also Patti let Amber showcase herself! Too often you see older artists cheapening themselves by purposefully overshadowing the newbies, or newbies being arrogant and thinking they can outdo the legends. This was perfect! *2020 Edit* Quarantine really has people falling down the RUclips wormhole in the best way 😂
@Grammar Police no she wasn't? She clearly has utmost respect for Tina Turner. She was just doing the choreo she was supposed to do. And I don't think she intentionally stepped on her foot if that's even true
Also Amber has the chops to actually sing and hold her own with Patti. Sometimes legends outshine newer artists simply bc they shouldn't be on the same stage to begin with. Lol
I will NEVER get tired of this line "..why spend mind, when I can spend yours.." thanks Kim. And those vocals by Queen Patti and Amber were everything!!!!!
Vosnah she sounds beautiful as always. I just wish glee gave her a better chance to shine rather than having her run the last word of every other song they do. And the solo songs they did give her they only gave her because it was apart of some storyline talking about how underappreaciated Mercedes is.
Jhud was taken seriously after that oscar winning dreamgirls. That's what put her over the hump. Amber has alot of success thus far . She said she is finally working on her album. But glee show and tours. Plus singing for the white house twice and being in dreamgirls in London which she won an award for so she has a good career, in due time she will get even bigger
HAPPY 79th BIRTHYEAR belatedly (May 24, 2023) TO our INTERNATIONALLY OUTSTANDING GODMOTHER of SOUL, MISS PATTI LABELLE, who had a challenging birthday this year especially with the passing of Sister Rock Legend Tina on the exact same day! 😮 Nonetheless, despite the challenges of life that befall you & us each day, MISS MUSICAL DYNAMITE FASHION ICON PATTI LABELLE THANK YOU for INSPIRING us ALWAYS to WHOLISTICALLY ASPIRE for EXCELLENCE throughout LIFE'S JOURNEY!!!😢 We LOVE ❤U MAMA P & AMBER !🎉
Shes like "yall might can dance but bet you can't sing like this" 🤣🤣 she's so in her element there. And I love that Miss Patti is there for and loves the younger generation.
When the audience is chanting for Patti at the end, you can just see the gratitude radiating from her. The pop stars of today need to take notes: That is what a class act looks like.
HAPPY 78th BIRTHDAY BELATEDLY (May 24, 2022) TO OUR WONDERFULLY OUTSTANDING INTERNATIONAL GOD MOTHER OF SOUL MISS PATTI LABELLE!🥰 MUCH LOVE 2 U MAMA P😍!👍
This was so legendary. You had Patti an amazing legend and one of the founders right beside Aretha & Dionne. Lil Kim woman who solidified female rap in a male dominated industry and the blueprint of female rap and Amber Riley one of the greatest singers of our generation and the way she bowed towards the end.
Even though I am not for the message of this song these three women owned that stage and killed it. The high of this came for me when I Lil Kim came out like a boss rocking that dress with the split. I was like oh sh#@t in my mind. This is my first time ever hearing her rap. Definitely deserve respect for her craft. They were all powerful, outstanding, and they brought the fire!
Lil Kim knows how to make an entrance I can't stop playing her part. Amber's voice sounds like the gates of heaven opening through the clouds! #Glorious Patti Labelle slayss everyone, she's so amazing hitting does notes at age 70? omg I love her
What a talent. Patti LaBelle has one of the greatest voices..like Aretha Franklin, Dionne Warwick, Barbra Streisand..God just seems to spend more time on some people. Their voices are never strained. It just flows from their souls. Or that my opinion anyway.
I don't know how I've never seen this performance until now. That was so amazing I literally had to stand up out of my seat! And I absolutely love that look on Kim!
talking about Amber? Her vocal range is beyond crazy,and you can see very clearly that in some parts she was going to go for the high notes (as she does when she's singing alone) but then realized Patti was going too,so she decided not to.That's called respect,but she's way capable of going as high (she can go way higher actually) :)
+Anais Silva umm Patti labelle is a dramatic soprano and can sing opera , way higher than amber. . just look at some of her performances when she was younger.
Out of all of the "Lady Marmalade" videos I've just watched here on YT, these gals sing it the highest! Patti super surprised me she can still sing it! I really loved Ambers voice! She hit the right notes on this one! Together they got it going on!!!
Love Gladys in the audience supporting her sister. Watched the Gladys, Dionne and Patti special on YT the other day and was in heaven. Long may these reigning queens slay.
First of all, it is AMAZING what Patti can do at that age, she belts those notes with so ease. Secondly I cannot believe how wonderful is Amber, god!!!!!. Every single time I watch one of her performance I feel astonished, she is outstanding, I love how she shakes in one of the notes showing how much power she is putting in. Loved it.
You can't stop Miss Patti. One thing about Patti she doesn't care to get down with the younger generation and doesn't throw any shade. Takes to them with open arms.

She still hitting them notes 70 yrs old
She is 70 yrs old? She looks way younger
Yes she do.
a good black don't crack
+Joseph Collins I so agree! Always amazed by her electrifying performances!! She's actually 71 since May 2015.
+Joseph Collins slaying them notes, looking gorgeous at 70 years old.. All that in high heels, that's why she's the queen..
that's what u call soul music black people man .... black and proud
kyla Diamond so only blacks can sing soul? i hope you're not meaning that.
Akbbba 1 yeah i hope she meant it genuinely
Bruh Christiana Aguilera was the lead singer in the remake
kyla Diamond I promise I was thinking the same thing, lol black soul/funk/r&b music is like the BBQ, of the food world; everybody love it but they dont like it all the time!
it's a known fact that the physical makeup of black people make us better singers. that's just basic pedagogy. That shouldn't suggest their aren't many phenomenal singers of other backgrounds though!
Kim killed that entrance walk!
she did man(or girl, sorry) but she did good!!
Correction, Nicki Minaj fan her, Kim murdered everything about her performance. I got first time I heard “wanna rumble with the 🐝 huh, bzzzz throw a hex on the whole family” vibes.
yes she did
She absolutely slayed it!!!! I loved it!
Patti hitting G5 at the age of 70+ years is so underrated
Ntuzun Kaurintah RIGHT !!! I don’t think ppl understand how mindblowing this is lol but I take Queen Patti as one of the legends that really take care of herself hence staying hella active on DWTS and the masked singer 💜

@@ntuzunkaurintah I'm pretty sure they do. Amongst her peers, she's a giant. They know.
@@ntuzunkaurintah she has Jesus in her life

*2020 Edit*
Quarantine really has people falling down the RUclips wormhole in the best way 😂
I know right. People are always trying out-sing like in the Dreamgirls Medley. It was like Beyoncé and Jennifer Hudson were in a singing battle!
@Grammar Police no she wasn't? She clearly has utmost respect for Tina Turner. She was just doing the choreo she was supposed to do. And I don't think she intentionally stepped on her foot if that's even true
MazzyRima When Christina And Demi Performed They Were Trynna Outsing Each And It Was Cringe Worthy
Also Amber has the chops to actually sing and hold her own with Patti. Sometimes legends outshine newer artists simply bc they shouldn't be on the same stage to begin with. Lol
Dave 919 i think she maybe can bc patti is old and she is an amazing vocalist can support c6
Lil Kim knows how to make an entrance I can't stop playing her part.
Dre Wright right
I kept doin' that too, lol
me tooo omg !
Dre Wright me too
me too
1:56 Matching notes with Queen Patti must be a life changing experience
I replayed it more than my age
Right
And that was a signature "two note" Miss Patti is known for
Right
Same as her duet with mariah they both killed it
Amber held her own beside the legendary Patti LaBelle. Just love them both and I can't wait for Amber to shine on stage in Dreamgirls!!!
She's on dream girls 😍
they both did. Patti showed out alot more when she performed with P!nk Mia and Christina
that's only because Patti is a senior citizen now
big bailey agreed. Amber could do so much more but she didn’t. And she let Patti took the last note without interfering at all.
@@Downfall1990 if they were both the same age singing this song it would of been something.
when they both went for that G5 at 1:55 omg R.I.P. me
mEEEE
same
Amber vocal range in 1 minute please
its actually a G#5
Oneida Nuñez no it wasn't lol
This song was everywhere in the 70's. JazzyT.
I will NEVER get tired of this line "..why spend mind, when I can spend yours.." thanks Kim.
And those vocals by Queen Patti and Amber were everything!!!!!
+johnosahon Mine not mind.
2:06 was Eb6
"Disagree?!?!? Well that's you and I'm sorry I'mma keep playing these cats out like Atari!!!!" I love Kim's verse, one of my favorites by her.
its pop culture history and an international treasure
The power. 3 black women. All shining and showcasing eachother. I will NEVER be over this
Amber's voice sounds like the gates of heaven opening through the clouds! #Glorious
Girl u betta preach
❤
Yep amber your voice is beautiful
I swear whenever Kim enters its so badass
All night long
One of her most best iconic entrance was at the BET bad boy reunion show
Kim is so fierce. Love her entry!
That part made my Jaw fall she killed it and she look good too!!
Her Hips...legs....the walk the SHOES !!!!! AMAZING !!!!
CorneliusWashington yes I said the exact same thing, legs, hips, heels
Patti Labelle slayss everyone, she's so amazing hitting does notes at age 70? omg I love her
slaying notes and in high heels!
She's now 79 yrs. old.
Just a tidbit of info. She is 4 days older than Gladys Knight.
Patti LaBelle: May 24, 1944
Gladys Knight: May 28, 1944
Damn, Amber looks SO good here and she sounds better than she ever did on Glee!
because she is actually able to shine, rather than singing the "random black girl" high notes.
+Jonathon Lastname listen to her cover of ain't no way!
Vosnah she sounds beautiful as always. I just wish glee gave her a better chance to shine rather than having her run the last word of every other song they do. And the solo songs they did give her they only gave her because it was apart of some storyline talking about how underappreaciated Mercedes is.
probably because she doesn't have to hide her talent so some white theater girl can have the spotlight anymore
@@taeydream THIS
Patti at 0:25 belike: ok gurls bye bye imma own the stage now lol
🤣👋👋
LOL! OK! Shooed them right off to the side!
Ke Cui 😂
Hilarious 😂
spill the tea 🍵
How is Amber Riley not a major recording artist yet??
James Harp record execs didn't even take Jennifer Hudson seriously until she dropped a TON of weight. Its sad that music isn't about _talent_ anymore.
dat1ndnguy true
Because she probably doesn’t want to be a recording artist. She just wants to be a performing singer
Jhud was taken seriously after that oscar winning dreamgirls. That's what put her over the hump. Amber has alot of success thus far . She said she is finally working on her album. But glee show and tours. Plus singing for the white house twice and being in dreamgirls in London which she won an award for so she has a good career, in due time she will get even bigger
i wonder the same thing. she's so talented.
Lil'Kim's always has the fierces entrance ever.. Bow down to the QUEEN! 🙏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌
The fact Patti can still belt and sing this well at her age... I just can't... I f*cking can't!!!
Patti was having an outta body experience at the end💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💯🙌🏽
Amber Riley is the most underrated singer with a perfect technique.

Shes like "yall might can dance but bet you can't sing like this" 🤣🤣 she's so in her element there. And I love that Miss Patti is there for and loves the younger generation.
Patti sounding amazing...as always! :D
Gary C "as always" haven't you seen the vma performance yet of her in 2001?
Mama Appelsap STILL great, your point? Is it that you can't sing as well?
Patti’s “Alright girl!” Gets me every time, what a classy lady ❤
Three generations of beautiful beautiful black sisters ✨🌟
I love how Miss Patti was living for Amber @1:25. I stan generations respecting each other.
When Patti said "alright girl" you better step your game up coz she's about to belt like crazy hahaha
She said her dream was to sing with Patti on glee.. it didn’t happen on glee but it happened!! I love that it came true
Great performance from both, favorite part is 1:56, hit the same note perfectly.
I said the same thing!! Like Amber u better keep up with the legendary Patti labelle! Lol
+Alex Smith Impressive how she still does that at 70!
And three women of color that just slayed that stage! Come through!
Patti's voice is still as flawless even at 70. Amber wrecked it omg. YES
Alex N-S a good wrecked?

Patti LaBelle is pure class. SHe let Amber get the higher note knowing full well she could rock that all over the place.
She is wine too. Better with age
I hope one day I can sing with her. She has so much wisdom too. I'd love to interview her.
1:57 she let Amber know "I'm still Patti." LOL
lil kim's grand entrance be like.."move bitchesss... the floor is mine too" hahaha
1:56 is my favorite moment. Amber and Patti killed it.
The power of dramatic soprano
Black don't crack ! Patti serving them legs and notes😍
Lil Kims part though....
Amber Riley, I freaking love Amber Riley !!!
Lil' Kim's dress was jaw dropping sexy!!!!
That was good see in Kim on the show again thank you....

AMBER FREAKING RILEY!!! AND PATTI LABELLE!!! JSJFIWNXJWJKX THIS WAS SO EPIC!
Her voice never changeg since in her 20's. She is 70+ now. Her even even became better. The reconance, power, and technique are a lot better.
