Patti Labelle is a three(3) time Grammy Award Winner who has sung internationally since the 70's in front of state heads, opera singers and royalty. She has also been on Broadway in many plays in her 50+ years in the entertainment business. So how is she underrated?
Definitely! I mean her F6 doesn't sound like it's fully maximized for her voice. It still has thickness and 'space' that allows her to go higher if she wanted to.
Because she's a soprano... her voice isn't built to do well that low. I've heard support G3 and up, which is decent for a soprano. Those notes should've been included.
No, you didn't. You said her lower register wasn't supported well, and that's not true. You can't judge her voice from the bottom of the third octave only. Had this video gone up to B3, she would've had good supported moments. And being a soprano doesn't excuse a singer from having a bad lower register, it just means a soprano shouldn't be expected to have the same lower register as a mezzo.
Ivan Rios There are lots of videos about Little Mix, but I have an idea! I will post the videos ready and I will respond to your request soon. If you find any new note of them, let me know here in the comments also ok?
Learning to balance your mix of chest and head voice. Full chest would never be able to go past a Ab6/G#6 Every artist you hear belting A5 and above definitely have a mixed quality (Like Jennifer Hudson, she has a chest dominate mix, but it’s definitely not full chest) Whenever you go to sing through the break (transition from chest to head voice) Instead of transitioning completely through the break, you hold on to a little bit of chest. Doing so would result in a sound like Whitney Houston. As that is how she never sounded strained in high F5+ belts and carried full resonance. So basically, learn to resonate throughout your entire singing range, and you will be able to belt notes higher than what you ever have. You never stop singing in chest. You simply just sing higher. It is easier to belt a mixed F5 for me than it is to belt a full voice G4 (I’m a baritone) (Mixed is NOT singing in the mask. Some people, like myself, can sing in the head voice mask and create a belted sound, but that is NOT a mixed belt) To even mix-belt D6, you have to be one of the highest forms of Sopranos. (Coloratura Sopranos are the highest) But, a Mezzo or Contralto would easily be able to transition to head voice and use the mask. It wouldn’t sound as sharp as a mixed belt, but you would be able to fool many people. I have been up to D6 in my mask before. If I’m a baritone and can do it, that means any tenor or female singer should be able to.
@@mrbigbigtoe You must have flexible vocal chords as well i believe. And ofcourse good technique as well! I think it's so fascinating when i see people belting G5, A5 B5 etc... It's insane
Christopher Williams the the name of the song is title " Down The Aisle (the wedding song) by her group Patti LaBelle and Bluebells recorded in the 60s
"His high notes from F#5 have less volume". Uhm.... First of all, it's his. Second of all, above F#5, she gains more volume. Her full voice is around G#5-Bb5. As a Soprano, her voice tends to shine and gains power above F5. Keep that in mind my friend. Maybe you should do more research. Good luck
I used to believe that Patti LaBelle was a dramatic soprano, but when you really compare her voice to the big, dark, heavyweight sopranos out there, her voice doesn't compare. She sounded like a lyric soprano in her youth and became a spinto soprano in the 80s. I think Jennifer Hudson is the dramatic soprano.
Definitely a reak dramatic coloratura soprano....you cannot really compare coloratura voices to Real lyric, Real pure dramatic etc voices...voice lies higher,larynx is smaller-so the texturen will ever differ from other Fach types...dramatic coloratura sopranos can confuse people, bc if its etherual lightness AND thickness
I totally disagree with the posters assessment of Miss Patti Labelle's vocal fach. Patti LaBelle does not have the vocal weight, color and precise tone of a true Dramatic Soprano. Her voice brightens the higher she ascends and she is still capable of belting in that part of her voice and able to cut through a full orchestra using a vocal technique called, "Squillo". This vocal description is known to be that of a Spinto soprano's vocal characterization. Most of you only use the "dramatic' fach characterization because of the emotive way she sings. However, a true Dramatic soprano's vocal characterization is more than just an emotional vocal expression in song. The color, weight and tone also plays a very important part in describing such as voice. A true Dramatic sopranos voice is not only emotive in expression of sound, the tone is full, dark in color, robust and the tone is consistent in sound throughout the entire vocal facility, which is, also capable of singing through a full orchestra. In other words, a true Dramatic soprano's sound has a Contralto like sound from the bottom to the top of their range without thinning out. If you really want to hear what a true Dramatic soprano's voice sounds like in the classical sense, then listen to Denyce Graves and the late Jessye Norman and notice the difference. The only female singer to date that has the same emotive, passionate way of singing, and their voice sounds like they are singing in the Contralto fach throughout her entire vocal range/facility is, Miss Jennifer Hudson. Even when she's singing in her soprano register, which extends upward to a A6, the tone of her voice is consistent as if she was singing in the lower register of her voice. Her tone never changes.
Patti is a dramatic with a spinto tone. Everybody is in agreement with the fact that she is a dramatic. Due to the sheer size and volume of her voice. I'm gonna be honest. I love Jhud but sometimes her voice is a bit screamy. Also you've apparently never seen a Patti performance as you would know she is a dramatic singer. Both fach wise and through everything she does. Patti is not the only singer to be this way. Fantasia and many other singers sing the exact same way
I AGREE! I also used to think Patti LaBelle was a dramatic soprano because... I don't know. It was what most people think. But when you listen to classical dramatic sopranos, their voices are huge, really dark, and heavy -- and Patti Labelle's voice isn't any of these things.
Patti can carry resonance throughout all of her singing range. Where there is resonance, there is support. It is completely impossible to resonate without support. Strain blocks resonance.
Oh I love her F6's they are amazing. I saw her about 3 years ago and she was still able to hit some clear f6's. Patti is a rare gem.
Amazing
One of the best and most underrated voice of all time
Patti is definitely not underrated at all

Her range is actually Ab2-F6 the Ab2 comes from "Hold on" the live one night only album
Jay W's Entertainment I don’t believ
wow I’m gonna to start to listen to her music!!!! She has the range to kill them high notes
Vocal QUEEN
Glissando Queen
Sometimes Patti sounds like a siren. And I love it. I also love her head voice. You can tell when she's in her head voice because it sounds magical.
This siren characteristics only real coloratura voices have-sign for a light, agile head voice
I think she can go higher than F6 lol definitely
kleo Yeah lol
Could you do a singer name Jean Carne? She has amazing range!
Definitely! I mean her F6 doesn't sound like it's fully maximized for her voice. It still has thickness and 'space' that allows her to go higher if she wanted to.
She can
Great voice, bar her lower register which isn't supported that well but it's understandable for a soprano
It's not that it isn't well supported, it's just that the videomaker stopped it at Eb3... a good amount of mezzos can't even support that note.
Any time Patti tried to sing notes lower than that they were never a solid sound, just breathy attempts
Because she's a soprano... her voice isn't built to do well that low. I've heard support G3 and up, which is decent for a soprano. Those notes should've been included.
I feel like your comment was unnecessary. I pretty much said that in my original comment.

I believe she have some a2 in promise by tracy Chapman her lower register always looked over if you want more lower notes let me know
Is the vocal singing A5 note from "If Only I knew" mixed voice? It's very forward and piercing.
The 2nd C#6 is actually a D6
Pleasee, song B5 - 7:37 ?? Please, thank you
Got it like that

Timbre isn’t the only consideration to be a dramatic soprano. Some of the biggest soprano voices have a very bright colour: Nilsson and Flagstad.
