This is one of those Karen performances that deserves to be locked away in vault somewhere cus Karen absolutely slayed this. The guy behind her could barely stay focused lol.
OMG!!! If you listen really really close, at 0:33, 0:34 mark in the video, you will here someone yell "YEAH." My mother was given tickets to the tribute, by her college school mate, Gloria King, aka "King Family" from Ephesians Church in Berkeley. I'm sitting in the lower level toward the back with my mom, when Karen gets on stage and starts to sing. When she started to scant, the holy spirit hit me soo hard, I leaped out of my seat, hollered "YEAH." People got up and the rest is history. I'll never forget that There is noway you sit down on that song! Ericka from Mary MAry was there and Ledsi killed this one song, but KAREN was on point!!!
Almost unbelievable. That gift came straight from heaven. But it's how she uses it that's so amazing; her musicality that's an added or additional gift. She has consummate singing skills. Greatness personified...
David Duty loool that wasn't flat that was a minor note! Karen's very jazzy so she'll base her runs on different chord structures. It wasn't flat, her ear is just phenomenal
Whewwwwww..Karen you have sung me silly right now. Oh my goodness!!! You better sing MRS. KAREN CLARK-SHEARD!!!!! Geesshh there ain't nothing left on that stage....OMG!!!!
Go Onnnn Karen Clark-Sheard!!! This Lady is Tremendous! Go Ahead with the Runs and Highlights. Show off the Big "D" in Mich. I know Bishop Walter Hawkins is shouting with Karen. God Bless You.
Wow!!!!!!! i LOVE how this woman of God conveys the message by song i just love it and i love her too! Sounding like all the other 3 sisters here too! She just need to throw down a whistle note and that would be out of this world! Glory be to God!
And the Lord said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. 2020 Amen 2 Cor 12 Chapter.
Why cant people just enjoy the experience for what it is instead of revealing their personal and very ignorant opinions of comparisons. This was a "Going home service" for a man who touched many lives with his annointing in ministry and in music. its not about anything negative. it shows insecurity with personal failures that people get into comparing others because of their own failed accomplishments.
Some of these comments are hilarious. Throwing chairs and mics, slapping her with mics, just...lol. Honestly, first thing I thought when I saw the video was "dropkick this woman for sangin' like that!" she slayed. All in love!
Aretha Franklin is the Aretha Franklin of Gospel. Karen doesn't have the keyboard chops that Aretha has. She is singularly positioned as a gospel singer and pianist in that regard.
Arthur J De gustibus non est disputandum, true. But the basic technical facts are the basic technical facts. Aretha's technical musicianship puts her in a class of one. If we were talking about Mattie Moss Clark that would be another matter. But as much as I love Karen's transcendent singing, she is not, nor would she herself ever claim to be, as competent a musician as Aretha Louise Franklin.
@jbrooks0206 I agree, praise the Lord!!!!!!! Amen and Amen, I felt every word she said, just for me in precious Jesus name. Amen, he sure Will, god is everything Good!!!!! Amen!!!!!!
If you need saving (He'll save your soul) If you get a little lonely, (To Him you'll go) If you feel afraid, (Have no fear) Look to my Jesus, (He's always near, He'll bring you out)
Wow didn't know that comment stirred all this up! Lol. @1chantells thanks) I know there's no comparison in Karen or Beyonce. They both are unique in there own way. I love Karen she's a beast all the way. I will never put her down. I just saying in the Gospel industry she Hot! Just like Beyonce is in the pop and RnB industry that's all good people!!
I love her musical mind. She thinks of the coolest, most unique things to do on the mic and it's improv!
Exactly! I’ve heard singers with her same range perform the same songs as her, but they dont have her mind!! The things she thinks to do!! 🤯
This is one of those Karen performances that deserves to be locked away in vault somewhere cus Karen absolutely slayed this. The guy behind her could barely stay focused lol.
She sanging hard at 3:31...thought she was gonna lose her balance..... SING!!!!!!
Her name should have been KAREN ANOINTED CLARK SHEARD...this is what you call a gift and gifted
She is just anointed! People wish they could sing like this..... Nobody but Jesus Honey!! She sang the paint off those walls!!!
Who else ever is eating Bb5's through an entire song, and resting on F5's??? Range is RIDICULOUS
She did a Dorinda move @ 3:31 Love it no one like KCS!
Lol i see it!
Im weak🤣🤣
you know you sanging when Bobby Jones wanna ad lib after lol
+Dar'Yavesh LMAOOOOOO!!!!
Vintage Karen right here!!!! Sing woman!!! G.O.A.T!!
Gospel earthquake: 1:49 & 2:49 & the aftershock at 3:16- 3: 31. sounded like someone let a Lion Loose Roar woman!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Mattie Moss Clark, for molding these talented daughters! Lord have mercy!
she sang all thru them chords.. my god ...
The woman, the myth, the legend Karen V. Clark-Sheard MY GOD!!
How can you just come kill a song like that, and leave the stage lol. She should've dropped the mic! MY GOD!!!
I can't even find the words to describe Mrs. Karen Clark Sheard's performance, She is a beast, and her vocal range is ridiculous!!! I'm a huge fan!
OMG!!! If you listen really really close, at 0:33, 0:34 mark in the video, you will here someone yell "YEAH."

I just want to know hoooow can anybody sing like that, without bursting a blood vessel! Pure anointment from God!
Karen should be accused of infidelity, because she was married to those A5s in here. Lord, this lady's voice!
+Xavier Smith she's hitting Bb5s!
+Okebaram E She's touching on B5s, but the gist of the notes are high A's.
Xavier Smith Well she belted sustained Bb5 several times. Don't know about B5. I think you are measuring it a note lower than it is
+Okebaram E A point we can agree on is the notes were ridiculous.
Xavier Smith Absolutely!
This woman is SO annointed. And to think her mother saw this in her all those years ago. Look at God y'all! 🙌
MY MY MY SOMEBODY SHOULDVE SLAPPED HER FOR A GREAT PERFORMANCE AND POWERFUL VOICE
Ms. Sheard know she didn't have to show out like that. LORD HAVE MERCY!!!
Almost unbelievable. That gift came straight from heaven. But it's how she uses it that's so amazing; her musicality that's an added or additional gift. She has consummate singing skills. Greatness personified...
who growls that high???? No one but Karen!!!!
Now that's the Finally Karen I know! Awesome!
Karen: I CANT LOLOLOLOLOL. Your queen beast!
THAT GROWL WOULD HAVE WALKED ME RIGHT INTO HEAVEN BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE FLOATED UP THE KING'S HIGHWAY AFTER THIS!!!!!!!! JESUS!!!!
Watched this so many times and I still get chills
3:24. Yasssssss you better eat Karen!
3:15 to 3:32 O M G!!!! KAREN they wasnt ready for all that right there! Im over here bout to shout!
WOW ....even a flat note @ 2:00 sounds sooo good. That's saaaanngin'.
No Backing tracks.......No Autotune........No Overdubbing.......Just God!!!
David Duty loool that wasn't flat that was a minor note! Karen's very jazzy so she'll base her runs on different chord structures. It wasn't flat, her ear is just phenomenal
QUEEN MOTHER KAREN CLARK SHEARD! THE GOSPEL BEYONCE! She Is A Force Of Nature!
Amir Seven she’s more like The Patti LaBelle of gospel. Beyoncé’s dance moves aren’t as electrifying as this woman’s voice.
Whewwwwww..Karen you have sung me silly right now. Oh my goodness!!! You better sing MRS. KAREN CLARK-SHEARD!!!!! Geesshh there ain't nothing left on that stage....OMG!!!!
How can anyone not love this woman....truly a blessing!!!
Karen is an anointed gospel singing beast! Her voice is amazing
Go Onnnn Karen Clark-Sheard!!! This Lady is Tremendous! Go Ahead with the Runs and Highlights. Show off the Big "D" in Mich. I know Bishop Walter Hawkins is shouting with Karen. God Bless You.
Now that's how you shut down a show. God bless you First Lady Sheard.
I'm about to fly to Detroit and slap Ms. Karen for this performance! Wooo Lawd she went for my jugular. Amazing performance!
I would have to put this performance in my top three performances...... She did it right here.....
I laugh every time I watch this b/c Karen knows she didn't have to...but I'm glad she did!!!!

This is one of my fav COGIC Mass songs....Dorinda and Karen smashed the original and Karen smashed this version all by herself!
And the Lord said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. 2020 Amen 2 Cor 12 Chapter.

If you feel afraid, (Have no fear)
Look to my Jesus, (He's always near, He'll bring you out)

I love Karen she's a beast all the way. I will never put her down. I just saying in the Gospel industry she Hot! Just like Beyonce is in the pop and RnB industry that's all good people!!
