  • @Chipmunkchick1 Breast cancer, aged 31,In January 1976 Riperton was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a radical mastectomy.[2] By the time of diagnosis, the cancer had metastasized and she was given about six months to live. Despite the grim prognosis, she continued recording and touring. Riperton was one of the first celebrities to go public with her breast cancer diagnosis, but did not disclose that she was terminally ill.

  • @Chipmunkchick1 Breast cancer or was it from not being able to look up how people die on wikipedia.

  • u left out Chante Moore in influenced section she too can climb to a similar register

    VOZ COMO A DELA,INESQUECÍVEL.OS 31 1 NÃO GOSTAM CERTAMENTE TEM SUA PRAIA ...MUSICA DE MASSA.

  • Ok. I listen to metal/deathcore/mathcore (yes, I'm black) and I know who Minnie Riperton is. Whoever says she can't sing has no idea what music is....

  • @AETOGenny hardcore and mathcore isnt music. its a pathetic excuse for people who have no talent to be finally looked at. get your lame black ass in the corner and off yourself like you should hae done awhile ago. athankyou

  • @MasterMaulz419 y u mad, tho? All that because I listen to a genre of music you don't agree with?

    Hahahahahahaha

    Trollin ass nigga.

    Maybe you should seriously consider The Contortionist, The Number 12 Looks Like You, and Between the Buried and Me...

  • @AETOGenny I Was There at cancer concert as a worker in Beverly

    Hills . BEFORE she was diagnosed . She was Beyond Superb... You should have been there. Maybe some day you will. I hope.

  • i thought her high note was the flute..... Damn, freaking awesome.. if you put that on a good stereo , the window might break.....

  • Does anybody know where I can download Give me time? I can't find it anywhere.

  • PS: for "XxfAtal535", at first I was angry at your bigotry. Then I viewed your channel. You're a 67 year old "man" whose life revolves around "Call of Duty". Now, I just pity you.

  • @Otispuss2 LOL I'm 18 bro. I put 67 for no reason.

  • For the haters and detractors, Her bio says it all. If you can't live with that, then

    a) either move your loser ass along and hate somewhere else; or

    b) post YOUR bio

    She studied music at the Lincoln Center and had a phenomenal vocal range of 5 1/2 octaves. Legends such as Ramsey Lewis, Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters all thought she was talented enough to seek her out (note three (3) genres: jazz, rock and blues). She received the Courage Award from the President of the U.S. just before she died.

  • no 1 could get higher with such ease

  • aww her voice is so beautiful

    my music teacher was telling us about her today

    and how strong her voice was nd range :P

  • 0:21 ewww la la miss minnie.... ewww laaaaa laaaaaaaa ;)

  • I betch ya i can make her queefs hit higher notes

  • XxfAtali535 - you should stop breathing. Now - for 5 minutes please.

  • @krick0124 Bitch i can't even breath anymore after laughing my ass off to this untalented joke of a singer dis bitch just squealin and screeching in da mic acting like she's fucking havin a heart attack or sum shit bahahahahahahahahahahaha

  • @XxfAtal535 Bitch please. She is a very talented singer. It is very rare to reach those high notes! And if you don't like her singing thats not a reason to hate her and say your happy that shes not breathing. Thats just a horrible thing to say weather or not you like that person. I think your birth was accidental or something, like your mom got knocked up in highschool or something. so get outta here.

  • @XxfAtal535 you should really listen to some of her whole songs

  • LOL glad dis bitch aint breathing no more.

  • ¡Diós mío el registro vocal de esta mujer es impresionante !....Puede alcanzar notas tan agudas como ninguna otra persona en este planeta...Su registro vocal soporta tantas octavas ascendentes que hay escuchar su interpretación para poder creerlo....¡ Realmente lo que dice la lápida en su tumba es verdad: " ELLA FUÉ UN MILAGRO DE LA NATURALEZA QUE NACIÓ PARA ASOMBRAR AL HOMBRE CON SU VOZ Y CON SU TERNURA"

  • Only because i'm not able to sing like this,it doesn't mean it's cool.

  • @RiodeJaneiroFlamengo so what's cool for you?

  • Μy best female singer ever....

  • This woman and Aretha were IT in their time...shame Minnie's time was so short here....May her memory be eternal...!

  • THIS is who EVERYBODY falls short of---the QUEEN! So crisp, so classic and SO MUCH in CONTROL! I'm wondering why no one has included Chante' Moore or Trina Broussard! They both covered Minnie's classic song (Inside My Love) very well but I think Trina hit it dead on without too much ad libbing. Her version is in Love & Basketball. I really don't know why neither songstresses are getting the acknowledgement or airplay they both deserve! Mariah's not the only one who can hit those notes, trust!

  • i can hit that shit and im a dude

  • @fiveohnine100---Okay, if you can hit Minnie's notes---make a video and show us! I'm all ears!

  • @fiveohnine100 oh yeathe new castraii'...! eh...?

  • @fiveohnine100 yeah every time your boyfriend goes so tremendously balls deep, the whole world guessed that already.

  • At one point in this video I got up, I thought my kettle was whistling, it wasn't.

  • This girl can out Mariah Mariah!

  • Sorry people for the misinformation of Minnie being killed by uterine cancer, it was breast cancer that killed her. RIP Minnie.

  • BTW - Ella Fitzgerald is not my grandmother.

  • Minnie Riperton was great indeed. I love her music and I was sad to know of her death of uterine cancer back in I think 1980. However, she was not the one who started it all you gotta really go back way back to my grandmother's time, Ella Fitzgerald! Her voice was so high pitched would break glass believe it on not. Look it up (of course).

  • Yes, Minnie is quite fantastic, but don't despair, people. The fact that so many other singers can do it too (including people with lower range like Christina Aguilera) proves what music teachers say all the time: that most women can learn to do this regardless of "range." Alto, mezzo, soprano--we could all learn. The best power in whistle register I ever heard was Eivor Palsdottir, the song "Foroyar Min Modir." Something forlorn and windswept in the Scandinavian style of delivery.

  • Great tribute to a great lady! The incomparable Minnie Riperton....there will never be anyone else like her.

  • no "Inside My Love"?

  • The only two people I have ever heard rival Minnie for whistle tone are Mariah Carey and Betty White. Personally, I prefer Mariah's sound in the whistle register, but Minnie is just breathtaking.

  • no denice williams, granted she is no minnie but closest I have ever seen,

  • jajkakjak yo trato de hacer esas notas y pareciera que me estuvieran pegando y estuviera gritando afónica ... suena bastante chistoso

  • The queen of the whistle note and no autotune!!!!!!!

  • Why did 1031 people give this a thumb UP? It´s horrible.

  • @minnystuen

    horrible? her high notes are amazing i'm pretty sure you can't sing like that.

  • @cnwodo In my opinion, it´s not singing, it´s screaming. You american dramaqueens...

  • @minnystuen it is not screaming, fool. however, you can't be blamed too much as taking the high notes out of context like this totally devalues and destroys the performances and if people dont know of course they are gonna comment on a whole collection of piercing high tones jumbled together like they're in the orthodontist's waiting room from hell - so in the end this video is just annoying and stupid piece of pewk.

  • @biteitoff Get your point, and I kind of agree, but it´s still screaming! I have no idea how I even found this video.

  • @minnystuen

    im not even american you dumbass, it does not take a musical expert to realise she's hitting the high notes perfectly

  • @cnwodo Who said I called YOU that? It´s so typical americans to overdue the high notes. I don´t find it comfortable to listen to! I can have a meaning even if I don´t sing like that? And even though we don´t have the same opinion, does that give you the right to call me a dumbass?

  • @minnystuen well you said in your previous comment 'YOU americans' which seems like your referring to me.. and yh it's true it's your opinion but i was just stating she has a very rare range and thats why people find her incredible not many people can hit those notes even if you find her uncomfortable to listen to, its a fact.

  • @cnwodo the person knows they cant so thats why they r mad,LOL i can go to a powerful c8 my self.

  • @RaciouS91 C. Aguilera has a big good voice too. She is more modern, but has very very good voice too

  • Her voice is a little to coo ey for me.

  • why there is Christina Aguilera in this vid????????????

  • @RaciouS91 thats what im thinking :/

  • @msbabyrudeness15 Weirdo.

  • @misshoneyz2dabify lol!! ahahahaha

  • What song is min 0:54?  I like it

  • @vkendriv reasons 

  • @XxfAtal535 You're stupid...lmao

  • what note is memory lane because thats the only one i can do like her

  • dang she is geting it

  • @popolynn2

    ....Nevermind x.x

  • @misshoneyz2dabify Shhhhhh. Same person.

  • @misshoneyz2dabify

    well of coarse: all black people look the same!

  • @popolynn2 no we dnt

  • @oreo5598 yes you do

  • @popolynn2 how do we all look the same?

  • @oreo5598

    when you see a chocolate man standing next to another porchmonkey, they are similar to the point that you think they are the same person, this is because every jungle man has the same face and hair.

  • @popolynn2 you need to shut up! you are gonna get jumped one day for being such a racist ass! and ima laugh...bitch ass

  • @oreo5598 prolly, but only because spooks lack the mental capacity to use their words in a situation such as this.

  • @popolynn2 not all black ppl are like tht...i can use my words in situations like this, you just went a lil too far

  • @oreo5598 not really, you have a terrible darkie accent, and i can smell your chicken breath from here

  • @popolynn2 Must you be so racist? If you're going to say something like that then you should expect to get a negative response from someone.

  • @stargirl2094 lol wut?

  • how high could she belt?

  • AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

  • I didn't know it at the time perhaps, but I was so blessed to see Minnie in concert twice. She could hit those high notes effortlessly. She definitely did influence the contemporary singers of today who can hit whistle notes. Maybe Uma Sumac came before her, but Minnie is the one who influenced modern music. I remember reading that Mariah sang along with her. This woman, this singer, gave us so much. Minnie is a very special favorite of mine. Thanks for this overview.

  • there is a diference between hitting a note and being able to sing with it ! minnie is the one and only for me ! and people who give this a thumb down do not know anything about singing !

  • she is the best, above her contemporary divas like etta or aretha from whom many have drawn inspiration, she just lived too short for people to notice, a legend anyway haha

  • wonder what would have happened if minnie and michael jackson had had a child together would we still have working ears? lol

  • I respect Minnie. Her and Mariah's whistles >>>>>>>>>>>>>> the world

  • Why did 25 people give this a thumbs down? god, its some sick people in the world.

  • @AvaNonGrata

    Why do you care.......... fuck I hate youtube

  • @AvaNonGrata because 25 people dis-like themselves because they cant do this!!! Plus they need Jesus!!!

  • @AvaNonGrata They probably didn't want to see the pics of Mariah etc

  • @AvaNonGrata Because sneering down their noses and trashing things that are better than they are (since they know they have NOTHING to offer the world that can be called "talent" or "training") makes them feel better than they are. They can look at someone else and congratulate themselves with their phony encomiums, "Hey, I criticized that singer, I must be incredibly awesome." Meanwhile they've convinced themselves of nothing so they must keep looking around for someone else to trash.

  • @AvaNonGrata I think there's like 30-40 people who go around and dislike as many videos as they can each day.

  • i can hit those note and i am in the middle of puberty and straight

  • @mastersupernova29 So could I, hopefully you can keep it.

  • its sad she died from cancer, she was such a great singer

  • @SBSiriusBlack LAME!!!

  • zaira è un gabbiano...ancora.

  • "Loving You" é sem dúvida alguma uma marca registrada de seu talento. Não há como esquecer Minnie Riperton interpretando essa música!

  • HAHAHA LMFAO! My brother can hit that AHHH! Note in loving you..lol

  • @lavargas95 so can i and i am straight BOOM!!

  • OMG

  • 5:30 Magnificent!

  • R.I.P Minnie Ripton :( Best voice like that ever heard

  • @ryo666100 How did she die?

  • @malikaiflame breast cancer

  • @malikaiflame breast cancer

  • @SBSiriusBlack sorry, but Queen of those whistle notes is Mado Robin, this technique comes from the Operatic singing, but I agree that Minnie's voice is like a little angel, and her whistle register one of the most beautiful ever been heard :)

  • Someone who knows about music can tell who has the hardest techinique, Minnie Riperton or Mariah Carey? My perception is that Mariah have the highest notes but Minnie are more melodic......

  • @bconsitt The white, black, and latin men that keep asking me to get out on dates with them, didn' t think that I am rabid at all. Jealous, cause yessssss, I am one of the sexiest hoooottest looking females that men have ever laid their eyes on. :-) I bet you wish you wish you had this much of my life. :-) 

  • I went on to reasearch Minnie to find she had an interesting but short life. I tire of the fools who can't pay tribute to anything or anyone . We live in an enviorinment of "talk wrestling" morons out shouting each other.

  • @krenzx Well, It's because God needs special people like that in Heaven :D

  • She is STILL amazing and the best and she WILL be amazing and the best.

  • loving you is easy cuz your sexual

  • CAPITAL LETTERS!!!!!!

Yes she, Mariah Cary is 2 jealous 2 just sing only with her own voice Nstead of N blend with the best voice that she could never keep up with! Mariah is obsessed with the blackest highest pitched voices that she blended N on her cd's N with her own voice. U didn't know the details of the entire situation & u r not about 2 find out now! GET LOST & STAY OUT!

  • @HiddNitePRandBSinger OhMyGod, first of all this video is here to appreciate and spread the love, message, and talent of Minnie Riperton, not put down Mariah Cary. Secondly, if you're going to type a paragraph I suggest you speak english and note that words need VOWELS. "N" is not a word, retard.

  • @StraightOuttaLumby U obviously don't have the life just as I did, but still do. U R 1 of the pet peaviest, pickiest, out of touch people that I have ever seen if All U do all day is come up with, but focus on N not being a word in my written communications to U. U didn't get it, but U R obviously out of touch with a certain aspect of this life, but R still just as lost. But as I said, I am still going to just leave U that way, LOST, WHICH IS BEST, and get relief,......

  • @StraightOuttaLumby ..........Bcause I had, but still JUST have such a very blessed life that has only just re-intensified, but has given me , my newest drug FREE high with THE RE-INTENSIFIED RUSH! So I am getting relief from U now with saying GOOD BYE, BUT GOOD RIDDANCE!

  • Minnie Julia Riperton (November 8, 1947 – July 12, 1979) was an American singer-songwriter best known for her vocal range of five-and-a-half octaves[1] and her 1975 single "Lovin' You". She was married to songwriter and music producer Richard Rudolph from 1972 until her death in the summer of 1979. They had two children - music engineer Marc Rudolph and actress/comedienne Maya Rudolph.[2]

  • READ IT AND WEEP MARIAH CAREY FANS AND GROUPIES!! LAST BUT NOT LEAST MINNIE RIPPERTON ABOVE ALL BY HERSELF TOO!! BUT TAKE NOTE THAT AT THE TIME OF MARIAH BIRTH LEONTYNE PRICE WAS WELL ESTABLIBISHED IN HER PROFESSIONAL SINGING CAREER AND 42 AT THE TIME OF MARIAH BIRTH, AND MINNIE WAS JUST 22 AT THE TIME OF MARIAH'S BIRTH. LEONTYNE PRICE AND MINNER RIPPERTON NEVER AUTOTUNED OR LIPSYNCED ANY OF THEIR LOWEST NOTES AND / OR ANDY OF THEIR HIGHEST C NOTES, JUST MARIAH CAREY'S FAKEST SINGING ASS!!!

NOTE THAT LEONTYNE WAS BORN IN 1927, MINNE IN 1947, AND MARIAH IN 1969. LEONTYNE WAS 42 AT THE TIME OF MARIAH'S BIRTH SO LEONTYNE DID IT FIRST, BUT CULTURALLY THE BLACKEST B4 MINNE & MARIAH CAREY!!!

  • Mary Violet Leontyne Price (born February 10, 1927) is an American soprano. Born and raised in the segregated Deep South, she rose to international fame during a period of racial change in the 1950s and 1960s, and was the first African-American to become a leading "prima donna assoluta" at the Metropolitan Opera.[1][2][3] Her voice ranged from A-flat below middle C to the E above high C.

  • Lena Mary Calhoun Horne (June 30, 1917 – May 9, 2010) was an American singer, actress, civil rights activist and dancer. Both sides of her family were a mixture of African American, Native American, and European American descent and each belonged to what W. E. B. Du Bois called "The Talented Tenth", the upper stratum of middle-class, well-educated African Americans.[2][3]

  • On January 7, 1955, Anderson became the first African-American to perform with the Metropolitan Opera in New York. On that occasion, she sang the part of Ulrica in Giuseppe Verdi's Un ballo in maschera (opposite Zinka Milanov, then Herva Nelli, as Amelia) at the invitation of director Sir Rudolf Bing.[13

  • Marian Anderson (February 27, 1897 – April 8, 1993)[2] was an American contralto and one of the most celebrated singers of the twentieth century. Music critic Alan Blyth said "Her voice was a rich, vibrant contralto of intrinsic beauty."[3] Most of her singing career was spent performing in concert and recital in major music venues and with major orchestras throughout the United States and Europe between 1925 and 1965.

  • ........ DUE TO MARIAH CAREY FOR THE MAJORITY OF HER ENTIRE CHILDHOOD, TEENHOOD, & YOUNGEST ADULTHOOD, AFTER THE AGE OF 3 GROWING UP EVERY SINGLE YEAR OF HER LIFE ONLY GETTING RAISED BY HER WHITEST ONLY OPERA ONLY WHITESET RAISED IN THE WHITEST COMMUNITY, WITH THE WHITEST PARENTS OPERA SINGING MOTHER NAMED PARTRICA CAREY. NOW READ AND WEEP THE BLACKEST CULTUALLY HISTORY LESSON THAT NEVER MENTIONED MARIAH CAREY ANYWHERE IN HISTORY AS EVER BEING IN THE RANKS OF THE WOMEN OF COLOR SINGERS BELOW!!!

  • ........AND LEONTYNE GOING DOWN IN BLACK HISTORY, NOT MARIAH CAREY'S WHITEST "PALE FACED" ASS. 4 ALL OF U WHO DIDN'T LENA HORNE IS THE PARTIAL INDIAN. THESE R THE DAMN CULTURALLY BLACKEST ACTUAL WOMEN OF COLOR WHO MARIAH CAREY HAS NEVER BEEN GONE DOWN IN HISTORY BEING IN THE RANKS OF AND SHE NEVER WILL JUST GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS A WOMAN OF COLOR IN THE RANKS OF MINNIE, LEONTYNE, MARION, AND LENA HORNE......

  • Two of the blackest feminine artiests who are ACTUALLY given the actual credit for singing WITHOUT AUTOTUNE AND WITHOUT GETTING RE-CAUGHT LIPSYCING, MINNE AND LEONTYNE WERE JUST PARTIALLY RE-SINGING SONGS LIVEST ON STAGE AND IN THE STUDIO, UNLIKE MARIAH CAREY'S FAKEST AUTOTUNED LIPSYNCING ASS. THOSE TWO WOMEN ALONG WITH MARION ANDERSON AND LENA HORNE ARE IN THE RANKS OF MINNE ...

  • This is for all of you Mariah Carey Fans getting over here to Minnie Rippertons songs and web page trying to act just like Mariah Carey's fakest ass is a woman of color, WHICH SHE IS NOT, who learned how to sing the blackest highest C Notes and vocal arrangements in the ranks of Minnie Ripperton and Leontyne Price.

  • That talent, that voice, that artist lives on if we teach. She died to breast cancer, yet she lives in our hearts, our breasts, our children, should we teach. Beautiful.

  • I Love Minnie !!! i want her back

  • Why are people dissing Mariah Carey? Whether she lipsyncs or not, her voice still remains one of the bests of all time. There are only a handful of singers who had a higher range than her i.e. Ripperton.

  • @Squizree Well then get over there on Mariah's groupiet damn fan web pages to initially and re-discuss that because Mariah Carey's lipsyncing highest notes imitating ass didn't ever legally get a highest note that she sang above Minnie Ripperton's highest notes in the first place. This is not Mariah's song stupid! And Mariah's highest range was never highest compared with Minnie Ripperton, the only ones recorded before and after Mariah are ME yes MUAW, Adam Lopez, Georgia Brown.

  • @Squizree But yes unlike Mariah Carey's drug dependent and drukest ass, I can still sing every last one of the highest C Notes highest re-compared with Mariah's highest C Notes too. Yeeeeees, I can still re-sing, but live my highest C notes without lip's synicing them highest compared with and / or to Mariah's Miss Carriest highest C Notes that are really re-manipulated and re-tuned and re-produced in with computers.

  • @Squizree BUT, Get your ass over there to Mariah's pages to hear positive things about her, but not over here with us culturally blackest Minnie Rippertonist Fans. I can't stand the fakest supposedly highest C Note re-singing bitch that's why I am over here re-listening with and to Minnie Ripperton idioto!! So see, slowest ass, that is why the culturally blackest people are over here re-dissing Mariah Carey's fakest wanna be blackest Minnie Rippertonist highest C notes re-thinking ass!!

  • gives me chills..

    its like..its more that just high vocals..

    it feels like a message

  • shes Damn amazing!!!

  • well no, Minnie was not the reason why Mariah discovered whistle register.She said she discovered it when she was a child. she would speak in it and then proceeded to sing in it. But she did state minne was an influence.

  • @DanyelHawkes Come on get for real. Most little girls have that high pitch highest scream in the whistle register. Just because Mariah was one of the little girls that had means that she discovered it? Uh Uh! Mariah was born in 1969 and Minnie Ripperton died in 1979. Minnie Ripperton began her professional career at the young age of 15 which was in 1962 and Mariah did not even exist at that time. Mariah became aware of Minnie at around 1975 when "Loving You" first came out.

  • @DanyelHawkes Every little girl was sreaming in the locker rooms in school and around the house to Minnie's hit song "Loving You". So what made Mariah so special that she could sing in the whistle register just like every other little girl during that time that could too. What happened and happens is that less than 1/2% meaning only a handful of every female in the entire populated world keeps the whistle register, but every one of them got recorded professionally around 16 or so.

  • @DanyelHawkes Leona Lewis was recorded on her 15th. I was recorded with it on my 16th Bday in New York. I still have the highest C Notes Like Minnie, Mariah, Leona Lewis, last but not least of all Georgia Brown today. My point is this, Mariah was 10 at the time which meant that as every little girl still did, she had that natural born ability sing in the highest C notes. Heck I have even seen little a little 10 Year old and a 5 year old boy do sing in the whistle register.

  • @DanyelHawkes So my point is this, Mariah was totally and only influenced with singing in the Whistle Register by Minne Ripperton and her song "Loving You" that was released in 1975. Mariah was still a little girl, but only 6 years old, but old enough to be able to realize and get impressed with Minnie Ripperton's ability to sing in the whistle register. Mariah was tottally only influenced by Minne Ripperton because her momma Patrica can't sing in the whistle register.

  • @DanyelHawkes Minnie Ripperton enunciated in the whistle register as do I myself, which means that we can actually speak words when singing in the whistle register. Mariah is only recorded speaking one word in the whistle register that she never proved that she could actually do in a live performance. The song is "I Wish You Well"  Mariah likes to take credit with music and songs that did not ever actually belong to her. She is one jealous obsessed woman.

  • @HiddNitePRandBSinger I beg to differ. On Oprah, MC entered whispering those super high notes when she and Whitney sang the Prince of Tides theme. Note: I'm not a huge fan of MC for her high notes. More for her lower register. "My All" is gorgeous. After she has the baby, she will gain a richness and a few more notes on the bottom of her register. THAT will be interesting to hear. Also, I suspect the songwriting will go deeper after the baby. Weeeeee'll see.

  • @lokijordan Prince of Tides...or Egypt!?!?!?Please understand there would be NO Mariah if there was no Minnie!

  • @lokijordan Differ if you must, but what you didn't get is that Mariah is the weakest in the lowest notes and she ran out of the vocal arrangements from unreleased songs done by a different seperated artists who recorded in the studio as well. Mariah used a blended voice with everyone one her records to impress people like yourself, much like T-Pain and Millie Vanilli used auto tune to fool everyone but the artists who actually knew and still know best.

  • @lokijordan You also failed to realize how many grammies Mariah lacked due to the grammiest voting already knowing that Mariah is the biggest wanna be blackest, but biggest cheatingest artist claiming that only she is recorded singing supposedly her songs that she could never remember the entire tunes to on stage. Just because you are her groupiest wanna get the Mariah the blackest fan, doesn't mean the rest of us had to go your way.

  • @lokijordan Mariah never could and still never can sing in tune and on time with the music live on stage and actually sing the entire song even almost just like the record. And that is because her whitest opera singing mamma could never teach her to sing the blackest like Minnie Ripperton. So how did Mariah learn to sing just like Minnie Ripperton, she only sings coping the one high C note the she actually only re-imitates Minnie Ripperton Out Doing.

  • @lokijordan The rest of Mariah Highest C Notes are the fakest just like her fakest wanna be the blackest woman of color that she is not and will get to be. I HATE & CAN'T STAND HOW THE WHITEST PEOPLE ALWAYS WANNA OUT GET THE CREDIT FOR WHAT THEIR ASSESS ACTUALLY DIDN'T COME UP & / OR COME OUT WITH. MARIAH IS NOT THE ONLY PERSON RE-SINGING THE MAJOR PARTS N EACH & EVERY ONE OF WHAT HER LYING ASS CALLS MOST OF HER SONGS.

  • @lokijordan MARIAH KARAOKED IN COMBINATION WITH MILLI VANNILING EVERY LAST 1 OF HER SO CALLED HIT SONGS. What did you know about anyway?! U've obviously never taken vocal lessons and / or made a record. Remember, Mariah only has actually 1 high C note, she AUTOTUNED AND MACHINE FAKED THE REST OF THEM JUST LIKE T-PAIN DOES ON STAGE ONLY HE DOESN'T LIE ABOUT IT TRYING TO MAKE THE CULTURALLY BLACKEST RACE THAT HE WAS RAISED & TRAINED TO WITH LOOK JUST LIKE SOMETHING THAT HE AND THEY R NOT.

  • @lokijordan Unlike T-Pain, Mariah and Her whitest opera singing mammy claimed to have really taught her how to whistle in the highest C notes that even her whitest opera singing mammy could never prove that she could do. The want to claim that Mariah is a vocal highest C note re-singing genius who just learned to sing in the higest C notes only from re-listening to Minnie Ripperton records. Please!!

  • @lokijordan And don't get to certain that either 1 of those babies that Mariah Miss Careys will make it here alive with druggiest / alcoholic drinkinist dependant ass! She is 1 of the worst wanna be mothers of all time! She'd have 2 get off of drugs & alcohol 2 have healthy live babies that won't get here in this world still born. If both of those babies are born alive, but with mental and physical health disorders which isn't that possible, Mariah will have her hands full re-caring 4 them.

  • @lokijordan By the way, "My All" was recorded, but initially vocally arranged by a different artist who is Mariah Carey before Mariah Carey even got the record deal. I am 100% certain of that because I was in the studio at the time that the song was recorded closest to the way that Mariah sang and partly recorded the main parts of it. As well as "Can't Let Go" too. MARIAH COULD NEVER SING LIVEST EVERY HIGHEST NOTE IN EITHER SONG WITHOUT RE-LIP SYNCING BOTH SONGS JUST LIKE SHE DID LIVEST.....
