@@nonsoikechukwu3368 If you believe that then you are beyond all help. Whitney was forgotten the day they buried her. Aretha is written into history as the greatest voice in recording history. It's written, every critic, every radio poll, every awards poll, every music industry magazine poll puts Aretha as the greatest. All I can advise is that you get professional.help.
Both were born with exceptional instruments. Whitney I think I overall had better vocal musicianship. She could add lib without over singing. Patti frequently would lose the melody with excessive runs and rifts. Patti however took much better care of her voice and had a far longer period of vocal savagery
PATTI SUFFERED FROM LACK OF TASTE LIKE A LOT OF "BIG" VOICED SINGERS. WHITNEY'S MAIN WEAPON IN HER ARSENAL WAS THAT TONE. PATTI'S TONE IS/WAS AN ACQUIRED TASTE.
Whitney and Patti both had sublime technique. They must have had training for a LONG time, but still somehow manage to sing as if they don’t care about technique at all. It’s just so effortless! I wishhhh
This is one of the most respectful comment sections I’ve visited for a vocal comparison video. I avoid these videos normally because of how vicious and obsessive fans can be. As for the comparison itself, this just shows you how singers can be exceptional in different ways and still be on the same level. Whitney has clarity, ease, and tone while Patti has raw power, five lungs, and an unforeseen heady quality to her upper belts. I would’ve loved to see Whitney-and any singer for the matter-last as long as Patti is. This was a great video! I throughly enjoyed it.
What's so impressive about Patti is she lightens the hell out of her voice to make it sound more contemporary, if she ever used a darker placement she'd sound like a mezzo just by the sheer size of her instrument. There are dramatic voices and then there's Patti lmao
I always wondered this! Her younger years consisted of a darker tone, one that I loved. I guess she adopted a different approach to have easier access to her upper range and for long term sustainability?
@@Betweentheraindrops8I think her voice just wasn’t done developing, as a teen and young adult many women just like men sound nothing like they do as adult singers. So I think the top of her voice just grew while the bottom shrank , plus she got 2 nose jobs so that made her voice lighter too

Patti takes it to another level she gives me chills. For me, she's the greatest she ALWAYS had that talent, versatility & easy power even as a kid. Her power is untouchable. Gift from GOD! She's taken care of that instrument and its taken care of her. I saw them both in concert Patti is an underappreciated national treasure. Glad she achieved recognition later in her career. My father was always a fan from her girl group days. Grew up hearing her. Both Whitney & Patti are inspirational powerhouse singers. Jenifer Holiday was another phenom. Jen & Whitney sadly, have passed. Patti is still with us an enduring diva. Gotta respect longevity. Patti takes it hands down, she inspires, awes, makes me cry she's that good. Her gift is intimidating---seriously. Whitney's gift doesn't. Whitney is full of studio craft, the way she uses the microphone. Her voice was never as strong or dominant as Ms. Patti or Chaka. I have never met any singer who could copy Patti. I know some who can sing like Whitney. Patti is the better--the woman is incomparable. I'm not sure who her musical influences were?
it seems to me that houston has a bigger more powerful voice, the notes are heavier in houston, that of patti are too but less percussive and resonant, she mixes the more I find e we hear a difference in the resonance and the ring
Two great women who have contributed SO much to music!! Patti with her longevity and effortless range, Whitney with her once in a lifetime resonance, tone and power, there will never be another Patti or Whitney!!! #beautifulblackqueens
Patti always kept her vocal chords tight and shut. Mariah often leaked air and she was a smoker and an alcoholic. Whitney did drugs and smoked. And Whitney's lows also often leaked air.
That's bcuz of her nodules. makes her easier to access whistle register but at the same flip to falsetto or breathy notes equally easy if not easier. I think the biggest reason is the alcoholic habit & overworking. whitney too with the overworking aside of smoking & drugs(mainly the former 2).
Patti was a much more vocally savage singer with incredible, unmatched heights and had much better life habits obviously, but Whitney was literally the full package: range, resonance, control, agility and a simple breathtaking beauty to her voice that in my opinion makes her the best mainstream vocalist in history.
I adore their stentorian belts.Patt's steely sound is so captivating - While Whitney's blazing and stunningly gorgeous sound makes her stand out,simply because large voices typically are not that beautiful. Beauty,power and agility all in one big voice.Whitney had it all.:) Plus,both ladies had/have phenomenal head voice.Patti's big,powerful & penetratinghead voice dominates my sould- While Nippy's offer endless colors and dynamics.Her coloratura runs and refined staccati wrap it up.
Yayyyy most of us were able to guess the last two! 😁 This has truly been such an enlightening & phenomenal short series; truly some of your best work ✨ You closed it out with a bang!!! Two of the most powerful mainstream vocalists: *The Voice* & *The Godmother of Soul* 👑 Out-singing these two is nearly impossible 😅
For what ik nobody ever outsong patti the closest someone got to outsinging patti was natalie cole AND SHE HAD a hard time outsinging patti cause then she would come back..
@@ant_vatt Natalie Cole deserves her 💐 as a vocalist. I didn't even know she was one of the only ones who got close to outsing Patti. I recall that she low-key outsing Whitney in their "Bridge Over Troubled Water" duet but Whitney gladly returned the favour in their "I Say A Little Prayer" duet. Another vocalist who truly stood toe to toe vocally with Patti, is Michael Bolton; he truly held his own. Spinto Tenor standing up to a Dramatic Soprano; definitely one for the books.
Whitney had that vibrato that really made your jaw drop..and she could hold it forever. Patti?...is all B to C to G-notes..and tremendous power. "Somebody Loves You, Baby" is one of those songs that shows off her ability to GO BEYOND the Cs and Bs, too. Listen to her earlier solo albums, and all you can do is shake your head...because NOBODY sings like that, but her.And That glissando she shows off, is/was a thing of beauty. It makes her stand out from anybody else in the industry
It's so true how they thought they could cut off patti mike at 5:55, but she is so loud she carries into other people's Mike's. She was at least 63 years old then and it was for the noble peace prize ceremony. Her performance that day made international headlines. And she was hoarse!
It's a sin to not mention head voice for these 2. Whitney's head voice is just one of a kind. The tone and skill in it is to die for. And Patti. Miss Patti's iconic head voice. It's practically a sonic weapon so powerful, they can drown out pretty much anything just by its sheer output
Please make another part to this series with Judy Garland and Lady Gaga....two mezzos who didn't go beyond D5 as much but their voices were ROCK SOLID within that range itself.
HOW TF DOES PATTI DO IT??? she is noticeably more headier than whitney but the output is just incomparable.god must have put 16 applifiers in her throat, coz it just dont make no damn sense smh
Clint Easton some ppl are lucky to be born with naturally super-big voices, then they learn how to get the best of that. Patti is one of them. Other ppl can never match that level of that tremendous power no matter how hard they try. Facts
Those are some real powerhouses along with some other late and greats and little known greats. They just don't make them like they used to. I don't care how you try to take away the Bible and state of church. It gave you this. Beautiful voices. Rich and melodious vocal skills. Powerful voices that has become powerhouses. One reason is because you sung in a choir and in the black church I don't care what nobody say you had competition. Because you didn't think there was nobody who could not sing better than you. So you had to always put out your best.
OMG The richness and intensity of Patti's Bb4s and Whitney's D5s though... 😱😏 Powerful like a hurricane~ Dramatic voices really are the closest thing to a force of nature. MrSkinnyJeanz3 would you consider making a video about Asian singers at some point? They have quite plentiful of gifted but lesser known powerhouses such as Han Hong, Susan Huang, Sitar Tan and the late Bella Yao.
@@uiteren2845 it so catchy but i really only started off as an Arianator in about 2011, then a Lamb in 2013, Next a whitney fan in 2015, and am recently getting more into others
Be sure to catch Patti LaBelle on Greenleaf tonight on the OWN network. She is also featured on the Greenleaf Soundtrack, and you can find that on iTunes. FYI.
If i could only see one singer my lifetime it would have to be Patti Labelle, the most entertaining and incredible voice of any singer in my lifetime. I like Whitney but I loooooves me some Patti.
For me Mariah and Whitney are equals. Let's not pretend that Mariah, Celine Dion & Barbara Streisand are not great singers. Donna Summer was a great mezzo. I used to think Whitney was better than Aretha until I got Aretha's anthology. I do think Whitney was more versatile than Aretha. None could take her crown both challengers Natalie Cole & Whitney Houston didn't take her crown.
momma Patti showing agility whilst being a dramatic soprano If that doesn't show a rigorous amount of time put into harnessing her instrument, idk what else. Factor in the support? Asses get drilled with resonance? Yas godmother of all legends
@David Garcia She's never been a Soprano and you can change your vocal type; matter of fact, many of the greats have due to natural ability or nature taking it's course. Many opera singers do this exact same thing so even with your nasty comments, you can't prove to me that she was a natural soprano because she wasn't.
Crazy thing about this video and a lot of Patti comparison videos is that it has a lot of performances to compare Patti in her 50s and even upper 60s, lol. Everyone scared to use videos from Patti in the 1980's. Now that videos from her labelle days are up I would love to hear those lack of agility and musicality arguments. Her labelle days proves she would have taken a shat on any artist.
Agreed. Nor will they dare compare Patti to any singer in the early 90s from the When a Woman's Loves tour or her iconic live performance all over RUclips. She has an ethereal range, vocal agility, and power that is unparalleled. Whitney was great but no voice on this earth, living or dead can match Patti Labelle. Luther said, "If the universe wanted a representative, Patti would be it and James Budd Ellison, stated and rightfully so, she has the greatest voice that has ever existed. It is too bad, that when we look back at history and her live recordings, will finally see how Patti stands out from all the rest. God made 1 voice and He broke that mold forever when he made Patti Labelle.
Both powerful voices. The sound of Whitney's voice was pure magic. Patti is a full soprano and had a lot of ease and stamina in the upper reaches of her belting range. I enjoy both but Whitney the more
WHITNEYS SOPRANO IS SO BEAUTIFUL. SHES THE VOICE, THE DIVA OF ALL DIVAS, PROM QUEEN OF SOUL, QUEEN OF BALLADS, QUEEN OF MUSIC, AND QUEEN OF R&B/POP…. ALSOS SHE DOESNT NEED TO SCREAM LIKE THAT OTHER LADY
I need she was 65 y.o at the time! As a matter of fact that performance night made European headlines saying 65 y.o patti labelle stole the show at Nobel peace prize. It was on front page of a newspaper
I am curious - are you going to continue your vocal profiles on tumblr? I've been following your blog for a while, but it seems you're more active here, so I'm gonna subscribe here too:).
I think of Patti Labelle as a savage dragon, capable of taking down any vocal competitor. Whitney, for me, was a solid block of gold -- consistently good from top to bottom, outside in. They are different. Both excellent. I just prefer Whitney's tempered and more refined vocal delivery.
it seems to me that houston has a bigger more powerful voice, the notes are heavier in houston, that of patti are too but less percussive and resonant, she mixes the more I find e we hear a difference in the resonance and the ring
Why did you stop at G5 with Patti LaBelle? Patti LaBelle's belts in her upper chest extends to B5. In fact, she was known as the B5 Queen in her upper chest belts all though the 80's-90's.
Literally,Whitney belted out live an ocean of F#5's,G5's & G#5's,always with perfect diction and truly great agility.Consistency. Her downward runs starting from up there are truly fascinating.
it seems to me that houston has a bigger more powerful voice, the notes are heavier in houston, that of patti are too but less percussive and resonant, she mixes the more I find e we hear a difference in the resonance and the ring
Erick Freiria I know Lara has G5, and perhaps B5 in head voice but I’m not sure ab her lower register as I haven’t heard much of it. It’s nothing better than average however, which is her biggest vocal flaw
Thank you for keep replying :) G#5/A5 is really great. I thought her consistency is only on F#5. well I've never listened to her that much so yeah, it's wrong. Patti's vibrato tho.. Is it the problem with dramatic voices? Bcuz Monica also has it :|
Yonce & Mimi didn’t make sense to include them in a series with a bunch of sopranos tbh. I’d use a different range to accurately display mezzo prowess.

this is debatable. but she really was unstoppable, definitely the one who had the longest prime
momma Patti showing agility whilst being a dramatic soprano
If that doesn't show a rigorous amount of time put into harnessing her instrument, idk what else. Factor in the support? Asses get drilled with resonance? Yas godmother of all legends
why didn't you show off Patti blowing the roof off in the sixth octave? :( Or at least some B5s. Lel. I'm such a sucker for her belts
i think it's mostly because then there'd be comments like "oh patti got more notes than whitney! ur biased!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!!!"
i need more of these.
Whitney looked beautiful belting, us singers have to make some faces getting them notes out, but Whitney made it Beautiful ~
How cool! Luv 'my' Whitney!
I just really like how high and powerful PATTIS voice is she took this one in my opinion hands down
Now mezzos please 😍
Whitney was/is a mezzo-soprano
@David Garcia what...?
@David Garcia She's never been a Soprano and you can change your vocal type; matter of fact, many of the greats have due to natural ability or nature taking it's course. Many opera singers do this exact same thing so even with your nasty comments, you can't prove to me that she was a natural soprano because she wasn't.
@@thunderstorm__8147 soubrettes are non-existant -- you are either a full-lyric, coloratura, or a dramatic soprano for that specific voice category.
tonshaad1230 Whitney was always a soprano
How patti how. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Crazy thing about this video and a lot of Patti comparison videos is that it has a lot of performances to compare Patti in her 50s and even upper 60s, lol. Everyone scared to use videos from Patti in the 1980's. Now that videos from her labelle days are up I would love to hear those lack of agility and musicality arguments. Her labelle days proves she would have taken a shat on any artist.
Agreed. Nor will they dare compare Patti to any singer in the early 90s from the When a Woman's Loves tour or her iconic live performance all over RUclips. She has an ethereal range, vocal agility, and power that is unparalleled. Whitney was great but no voice on this earth, living or dead can match Patti Labelle. Luther said, "If the universe wanted a representative, Patti would be it and James Budd Ellison, stated and rightfully so, she has the greatest voice that has ever existed. It is too bad, that when we look back at history and her live recordings, will finally see how Patti stands out from all the rest. God made 1 voice and He broke that mold forever when he made Patti Labelle.
Queen whitney no one will beat her voice. .RIP nippy
The voice of a young Patti LaBelle has no equal.
That's the damn truth!
Both powerful voices. The sound of Whitney's voice was pure magic. Patti is a full soprano and had a lot of ease and stamina in the upper reaches of her belting range. I enjoy both but Whitney the more
Amazing
WHITNEYS SOPRANO IS SO BEAUTIFUL. SHES THE VOICE, THE DIVA OF ALL DIVAS, PROM QUEEN OF SOUL, QUEEN OF BALLADS, QUEEN OF MUSIC, AND QUEEN OF R&B/POP…. ALSOS SHE DOESNT NEED TO SCREAM LIKE THAT OTHER LADY
3:10 resonance 😢
still whitney is thebest. for me..i love her so much.
They turned Patti's mic OFF for the E5! Go look at the original clip.
I need she was 65 y.o at the time! As a matter of fact that performance night made European headlines saying 65 y.o patti labelle stole the show at Nobel peace prize. It was on front page of a newspaper
Simplesmente intérpretes fenomenais!
🇧🇷🎶
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I only have one thing to say miss Whitney Houston
Aaaaah, the ultra-vibrato I need from Patti is here...
6:27 is my favorite.
queen patti labelle takes the crown
My “if I can take only one singer’s work to a deserted island” singers ( Can’t choose one over the other, ever !) along with Phyllis Hyman.
I am curious - are you going to continue your vocal profiles on tumblr? I've been following your blog for a while, but it seems you're more active here, so I'm gonna subscribe here too:).
Both are different singers, but for my list of favorite female singers it's 1) Whitney 2) Patti 3) Galdys 4) Vanessa Bell Armstrong 5) Ann Nesby
Please make another series!!!!!!!
Love Patti w the Afro!
Whitney is the greatest singer in the world period
These two along with Aretha would be the top three greatest singers of all time
I think of Patti Labelle as a savage dragon, capable of taking down any vocal competitor. Whitney, for me, was a solid block of gold -- consistently good from top to bottom, outside in. They are different. Both excellent. I just prefer Whitney's tempered and more refined vocal delivery.
it seems to me that houston has a bigger more powerful voice, the notes are heavier in houston, that of patti are too but less percussive and resonant, she mixes the more I find e we hear a difference in the resonance and the ring
What was that performance called at 6:25
0:18 song?
Somebody Loves You Baby
what is the name of the song she's singing in 2:27?
I'm searching for that too 😂
found it ruclips.net/video/34ZNF9JI7nw/видео.html
Hold up the light. Baby was in her prime 🔥
Powerhouses in their own right. Two different styles. Two different deliveries though. I really don't get the overall comparison.
Why did you stop at G5 with Patti LaBelle? Patti LaBelle's belts in her upper chest extends to B5. In fact, she was known as the B5 Queen in her upper chest belts all though the 80's-90's.
She reaches higher than B5 in chest
I know she reaches D6 for sure
what is the song at 2:16?
Diễn Vũ Văn Didn’t we almost have it all
Whitney houston
02:26 can someone please tell what song is that?
Hold up the light
Literally,Whitney belted out live an ocean of F#5's,G5's & G#5's,always with perfect diction and truly great agility.Consistency.
Her downward runs starting from up there are truly fascinating.
I have a question, whitney used a lot her mixed voice or did she sing most of the time with her chest voice (voice when she speak) I have a doubt
chest voice for me ... or balanced pattie for me sings more with a mixture for that it makes longer notes
it seems to me that houston has a bigger more powerful voice, the notes are heavier in houston, that of patti are too but less percussive and resonant, she mixes the more I find e we hear a difference in the resonance and the ring
whitney has a few G#5s as well. As for patti, why only stop at G5? I think she's capable to support higher, idk her consistency tho.
Andreanata Noivan I kept the range the same for every video, Bb4-G5
Ahh okay then.. but I'm curious with patti's consistent supported range for her mix. how high she got that?
Andreanata Noivan G#5/A5 I believe
Erick Freiria I know Lara has G5, and perhaps B5 in head voice but I’m not sure ab her lower register as I haven’t heard much of it. It’s nothing better than average however, which is her biggest vocal flaw
Thank you for keep replying :) G#5/A5 is really great. I thought her consistency is only on F#5. well I've never listened to her that much so yeah, it's wrong. Patti's vibrato tho.. Is it the problem with dramatic voices? Bcuz Monica also has it :|
Where is the mezzos!!!
Yonce & Mimi didn’t make sense to include them in a series with a bunch of sopranos tbh. I’d use a different range to accurately display mezzo prowess.
MrSkinnyJeanz3 Ohh Okeey I undestand! ❤
@Aaro Tähtivuori Chaka is a Lyric Mezzo Soprano.
YESSSSSSSSSS
