    Amerie is the first artist I had a hard time singing her songs because I didn't know if I want to sing the lead or the backgrounds

    She was layering her vocal arrangements. Music is science AND magic! Love it!!

    Brandy does the same thing. Layering and stacking. And it’s so beautiful. Amerie and Brandy have both mastered that skill so effortlessly.
    They both are the true definitions of artists and architects. They study the craft and they are music and production masters!!!

      Angel in Disguise is such a beautiful example of Brandy's layering ability.

    Shoutout to Chaka Khan for being one of the firsts to do backgrounds in a beautiful way as well

      Chaka's background vocals are legendary and can't be duplicated. I've always said that her harmonies with herself are set apart from anyone. Hard to articulate, but I agree with you. Chaka is the best!

    2 things to say. The first goes without saying, but imma say it anyway. This woman is lawdy fine 😍
    The other thing is, her 'Because I Love It' album is ridiculous and stays in heavy rotation, even today!

    Yeah her harmonic sensibility is totally approachable, but also her layered chordal approach is kinda avant garde. Also… It just so happens, she’s responsible for one of the top 10 best singles of all time. (Opinion)

      Because he's a musician who is also an artist. He's not a singer. So speaking to her he has a translate his words and thoughts in a way she understands. It's kinda hard to do.

    He mentions the “boom-bip” in K-pop arriving nowadays but that’s been around since early-mid 2010s. I’d know b/c I produced tracks like this for ‘K’ artists like Dean & Crush.

    And we see why she was a "challenge" to music. I "see" her creative process.
