Preeeeetty sure I'm in love with her.
Incredibly talented girl. I'm so glad that she won best new artist, because she may not have had the most records or sales, but the quality of her music is better than anything on the radio.
Honestly though, I only heard of her because of everyone freaking out over her winning. I'm so glad it happened. My laundry playlist has never been so relaxing
She's so beautiful and talented it hurts...
I think its ridiculous that ppl hated that she won this award. this is the first time in so long that a real musician who makes real music wins this award. New generation ppl dont understand that and only want to listen to horrible shit they hear on the radio and thinks thats music. I am not proud that I am in this generation but at least I have a lot of music sense
She is just dripping with talent; unbelievable
Real musicians like Esperanza earn their awards. I am really proud of her and the Grammy committee for making this decision. Fame, simply, does not transcend hard work and talent.
I could watch her talk like this for weeks. She’s so magically charming...
She seems so lovely and down to earth... It's no surprise that Prince liked her.
SHE SHOULD SING A JAMES BOND SONG! Love her hair too, I had a fro in high school!!!
This woman is a jazz genius...
RADIO MUSIC SOCIETY❤❤❤❤❤❤
You my dear are a breath of fresh air. Justin B. is so yesterday like a repeat same stuff different day. You are truly amazing and a true talent. God Bless you.
Just supporting a Canadian artist a real talented & nice boy who should have won for BEST NEW ARTIST OF THE YEAR!..."Ohhh baby baby baby!...oh baby baby baby..."
I love you Justin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of those amazing women gifted with talent, beauty and passion for her activity.
The all in one package. I just can't stop admiring this woman. An inspiration indeed.
Man this made me cry, it's so beautiful!! Love you Esperanza!!
Congrats! Fantastic artist flying under the popular radar music in "jazz"--but WE'VE got this lady on our SCREENS down here in the J's... Beautiful!
Jazz is on the map of mainstream music again! Yea baby!
And Jazz and Classical.... hell yea! Go Esperanza, you're an inspiration for all us Jazz musos!
I had never heard of this woman until yesterday. When they announced her as a the Best New Artist, my thoughts were:
1. "Who the hell...?"
2. "She's cute. I love her hair"
3. "Wow! She's very classy"
4." I should go to youtube and check her out."
Well, here I am. I've watched a couple of her videos, and now I'm a new fan. Last night's show wasn't a TOTAL waste of time after all.
Splendid Elegance & Eloquence Personified
Her 'Girl Talk' is a gem.
Beauty and brains....
Finally. Music as art. A breath of fresh air, GO ACADEMY.
she is just inspiring; inspiring for young people to hard work, inspiring for black beauty. Go Girl!
she really is a beauty! both in her abilities and in her self.
@Boyonspace I couldn't have said it better! You spoke well for her fans since Junjo or Esperanza. I'm so delighted!
i'm going to echo what many have probably said, in one way or another, that as her namesake translates here, discovering this woman and her supernatural talent gives me hope in this world. for serious.... how much of a consummate musiciene she is, coupled by her brilliance and articulateness fills me with light & inspiration. she seems to be self-actualized and shows us how amazing each of us can be. i'm thankful that she is a phoenix from a flame.... i bet she's really kind & personable:^)
Apparently the voters knew who she is. Now I do too. She has a lovely voice.And a jazz singer yet! Glorious.
such grace, such talent go ahead girl.
I am so going to check her music out!
I lovvee Esperanza Spalding!!
Very charming. She has become my favorite Jazz artist!
She's beautiful inside and out. I like her vibes.
She is a breath of fresh air. im telling you
Thank God there is still hope for real music played by real musicians,.What a breath of fresh air she is. What a beautiful gift God has given her and what a precious gift she is giving freely to the world. She has been here before. Pure Joy !!!
Beautiful woman. I love her.
True music...I have to buy some her music now.
Her voice is that of perfection.....
God she is beautiful! I love her music!
hope shes around for a long long time
god, i think i love her.
wow Esperannza Prince & Stevie thats talented people we are talking about people worth to be nominated like Ensperanza gives music a meaning thank god she is promoted she is so soulful so calm and low profile and hard worker .... GOD there is music out there
wow, she's amazing and as u can see, she is constantly experimenting with her art...this is an artist who will be around, playing or writing. teaching or producing! WINNER IS SWEET & coming from the jazz genre...even sweeter to take the golden award. I was in love after the white house performance & copenhagen. I dont know who mumford or florence are so, i will have to research.
It's a very good thing for music that she won the award.
hard work + beauty + character + SOUL!!
Talent is a gift! She has it!
I feel free when i listen to a lot of her songs. Simply adorable. Im too old to look up to her @ 22 yrs old, but gosh!
she's so down to earth. just laid back. awesome.
I am so mesmerized by this incredible talent and intellect!! Amazing
nice to see someone so talented get recognition for a change!
She's pretty,talented, and outstanding with the voice and talent that she has

predivna, pretalentirana, presimpatična, preeeeeeeee!!!!
What an amazing talent and articulate woman. If she were to run for President of The United States, I'd vote for her in a heart beat. She's a beautiful and intelligent soul. I love her!!!
i love her grammy speech. congrats esperanza spalding.
3:12 "Oh I probably got Best Vocalizing Arrangement In An Adult Contemporary Non-Instrumental Hawaiin Polka Field or something--cause it gets really nitty-gritty down there." LOL!
Aw, Esperanza, so happy you won! :)
OMG THAT VOICE
/teary eyes
I LOVE her! I had heard of her music before, but I had first seen her perform on the BET Awards and she was amazing! Congratulations to her for her Grammy win!
So happy for her ~
She is so beautiful and talented! She deserved that Grammy because she is truly talented.
i could believe in god when i see such a talented and beautiful human
I'm ashamed to say I didn't really know her before the Grammys this year. Very glad I know her now.
Enchantment...
Exhilarating...
Capturing divine moments...
Now facing the music...
When...
Mind, heart...
Reason with each other...
Treat with respect, and dignity...

She is just so musically talented, no doubt in my mind she deserved that award. So much respect for her.
I am so proud to have the opportunity to attend the same school that this amazing woman instructs at-Berklee College of Music!:)
I love her hari
this restores my faith in music today.
BRAVA ESPERANZA SPALDING! I'm glad that the Grammys did something right this year. FINALLY, someone who has raw, pure talent. Someone who sings beautifully NATURALLY, and knows how to really play the beautiful double bass (it's not everyday where you see a woman who plays the double bass). For those who say she doesn't deserve to win the Grammys.... please stop & think: natural singing voice + playing double bass v.s. computerized, auto-tuned flashy voice/noise? REALLY. Esperanza - HUMBLE.
beauty, talent, grammy - pow!
oh my good God. i have to find the full video of her singing tell him. and i wanna see her and prince and stevie jam!
She is really talented and deserved to win. Pretty girl, she seems really intelligent and nice :)
I hope all of you see that Esperanza Spalding is amazing, but she is not the only one. I encourage all of you to PLEASE open yourself up to the jazz world. As you can see from Esperanza's example, most people who are exposed to the GOOD jazz (NOT Kenny G!) DO like it. and while I acknowledge the fact that jazz isn't considered "mainstream music" (which I don't think it ever will be), I believe that in this decade it does not get nearly as much recognition as it should get. Congrats Esperanza!
I would like to add to the fact this woman has very pretty skin, color, and clarity. Very well spoken too.
@RaynaKapek - It's okay. No worries RaynaKapek. Thank you for your response. I agree with you that anybody can state when they're wrong. It takes an awesome person to have integrity on youtube. I'm glad that you were able to further study the matter. It's always a blessing when we as people can expand our musical horizons & learn of some nice musical artists out there. Take care. Peace. Jazzy Zen Brotha
ah shes amazinggggg
What's not to love about Esperanza.....gorgeous,sweet,super-talented and free of spirit and open of mind...
I love her, big talent!!congratulations!!
beautiful, talented, intelligent
Just saw her perform last night at Jazzfest.... she's phenomenal! That whole band was incredible.
The line about her nomination at 3:00 is awsome! she is, awesome!! so sweet!!
What a musician!! Great talent and a huge heart... love her!!
Love you Esperanza!!
beautiful young lady
Well deserved recognition for a beautiful musical genius.
Dang, she got finer! I didn't even think that one was possible. Every time I see Esperanza I think of that interlude on OutKast's album when Andre was like "ooh, I just wanna lay in her hair!"
Yay! She won! I knew she would
Love this video, the interview, the music. She's awesome...
oh, and this was uploaded on my birthday!^_^
AMEN to good music!
@Skyjuice70 Yep! She put a wrench into the whole mainstream machine of music. I'm so happy for her.
@DinkiDankiDoo
I didn't knew her before the grammy's, but i'm glad i do know
this was a good grammy year, Arcade Fire and The Black Keys, now her :)
I'm proud they give talented artist a chance :)
Therefore you are a phenomenal musician.
All the people who won Grammys deserved it. Even Muse won a Grammy, which was awesome. They got it right. Pure and simple.
She is just amazing!
beautiful, pure, simple, talented, wonderful.
18 people are just so wrong! lol The girl is talented Period! Even without the grammy. I saw her in early 2009 at a small venue in Chicago. Not many people really knew who she was but she blew everyone away.
@PowerfulMindsofWomen That makes SO much sense
the ability to sing pitch perfect in 3 different languages (english, spanish, portuguese) while playing the bass..oh yes, that deserves a grammy. BIG TIME. not to mention, looking really good too. This young lady is full of soul.
