Did not like the official video much BUT this performance sold the song to me!!!! Could you imagine if Fantasia did her recordings as if she was performing live.........some of the wanna be performers would be out of a job!!!! GO TASIA!!!!
This is UNREAL! Fantasia is a beast on the mic. Her voice is like this crazy, rare instrument that she can just do absolutely anything with, it's completely dexterous and absurdly powerful. I can't get enough.
wifebeaters and jeans and the trap is a hood term that could mean nething from house where drugs are made, a place to chill, or just simply the hood itself
I love when she sings, she just gets into it and makes me like the song so much more. why so many people gave her crap when she first appeared on the music scene, I'll never know. Regardless, all musicians need to take a page from her book when it comes to live performances.
See, I don't care for the subject of the song, but how can you NOT groove to the beat. Not to mention Fantasia KILLS this song so hard. I mean she is all in it! I'm surprised it wasn't a big hit.
Look at how she is vibing with her background singers and getting into it herself.! She never disappoints me.
@Hiphop2256 unfortunately this was while she was still with the American Idol producers and managers and so they probably didn't market her as best as they could of. It seems like everyone of the Idols has had some issue with them.
She put her thing down on this song. It is my favorite song by her. Surprised this is not considered a "get 'em on the floor" classic. It would make me jump up for sure. I love the sample of "The Happening".
That was fucking terrible. Glad this bitch is a complete after-thought. The people who enjoy this shit should kill themselves, it's obvious they're too damn stupid to function.
If y'all think this is good search for Lady Mermalade (HQ). She preforms a Patti LaBelle song to a T! She killed it y'all! I'm tellin' you... Y'all gotta see it!
Glad you liked the performance and I also think that was the best performance I've ever seen of a Patti song portrayed by another artist! I'll restate my comment again on the Patti video by sayin' she's a little Patti! No doubt!
@intelligentindivual Oooh I've seen that performance. It was just incredible and you can tell by the expression on Ms. Labelle's face, that she is more than down with it. Wonderful performance. Peace. : )
There was once a "Hood Boy" performance on YouTube that was from the Jay Leno show that in my opinion was better than this. I thought it showed off her gritty vocals a lot more..still this is a very good performance. Thanks for putting it up!
She did her thing.
