[OGGilmoregirlz1]

This is what you call a RAW & SOULFUL singer. Make me wanna holla!!!!

[JustJella]

@OGGilmoregirlz1 YES! I was just thinking to myself, that RAW emotion, reminds me of Anthony Hamilton "I'm A Mess" you can hear the soul, love and pain in their voices.

[thecircleofhealth]

[BrotherJR76]

@thecircleofhealth Glad u liked my upload!

[psasswriter]

[mndbdysol76]

Go Leela!!!

[foxycleopatra83]

j'aime bien!!

[MojitoJunior]

Sounds like a black Joss Stone... Well, actually Leela sounds way better 'cause she has way more soul.

[MojitoJunior]

W.O.W. !!! Soul is BACK!!

[alliscot57]

I saw her in concert when she first came on the scene AWESOME !!!!! 

[kendrakissez]

leela sang this ish. so sad how the industry fails the truly talented artists when they live by their own style. then society makes it even harder bc they all want to see the same kind of nonsense.thats where the real music falls behind! so underated and so bad!!! if ppl only knew!

[latinlovelust]

I love me some Leela James... extremely underrated... thanks for posting...

[BrotherJR76]

@latinlovelust No problem, Glad u enjoyed it.

[JaZAnOiNt3d]

I love this song...it's constantly on repeat. Wish she was a bit more mainstream because she is amazing!

[20layneo]

Love it! Love it! Her voice is far better than most of these "artists" out here nowadays.

[lilshorty3812]

White boy is playing that guitar and enjoying himself in the process.

[MightyMartel]

her hair is huge haha! love it tho

[randomman099]

I've missed her soothing voice!

[pittsianna]

thank the uploader for this amazing song. I love the fact that people still love real music...

[BrotherJR76]

@pittsianna Thanks!

[cafeconleche340]

Thank you for posting this!!! I was looking for this on youtube two years ago!!! Can you also post "When you love somebody"?

[BrotherJR76]

@cafeconleche340 Thanks a lot, really appreciate it. Unfortunately, I don't have Leela's live performance of "When You Love Somebody".

[Misspaulachy]

Where has this song been all my life? She is blowing.

[BrotherJR76]

@Misspaulachy Glad ur enjoyed it!

[iamthequeenbee100]

@BrotherJR76 those shoes she has on are waaaay too big for her feet.

[BrotherJR76]

@iamthequeenbee100 Speaking from a guy's perspective, I don't really care about that much about the shoes on her feet because the rest of her is more than alright with me!!! Besides, the sista is sanging (yes sanging, not singing) her butt off!

[BrotherJR76]

@iamthequeenbee100 That's pretty much what I care about. Now that I said that, let me admit that you're right. The shoes look a tad bit too big for her feet and make her feet look like boats, LOL.

[frankgorshin]

The part where she says, "Okay. I'm tired" at the end is one of my favorite things that I've ever witnessed in my life!!!

[Rosannasfriend]

am I the only one who thinks she looks like Lauryn Hill?

[BrotherJR76]

@Rosannasfriend Lauryn Hill? I just don't see it sorry to say. Leela's look (as well as style and voice) is pretty unique and stands out on her own so I don't that it's either right or fair to compare her, looks or otherwise, to anybody else. Just my humble opinion...

[iamthequeenbee100]

@Rosannasfriend --both are beautiful women, but they do not look anything alike--except they both have large, expressive eyes and like to wear their hair in ethnic styles--but then, She looks a lot like my cousin Tootie and Toots does not look like Lauryn Hill.

[Rosannasfriend]

@iamthequeenbee100 well, she does to me. :)

[hymanandhyman]

She has this song with a house funkie beat, it will keep you on your feet the whole song and saying to the DJ or who ever play that again , yes she is awsome , great things come in small packages , said the woman who is 5 feet tall HA HA Thank You

[MrUP2]

Wow I Luv this Women, Amazing Voice, Mad Skills,, Congrats on all You Do Wify !!

[LilasOfficial]

Beautiful!

Guys check my youtube, just released a track wit Jayz's Roc Nation Artist K Koke, luv to get ur feedback <3



[wildhoneydew]

First time ever hearing her and I am a huuuuuge fan now!!!!

[Igotpeterson]

Leela James you make me glad I have ears to hear that beautiful voice!

[valreshel]

Just saw her for the first time at Jazzfest n LA and she was on fire. stole the show, had the audience n her hands, people were singing dancing in the aisles and getting funky. I loved it, pure energy and soul from the gut up to the clouds. AWESOME, ONE BAD,BAD TO THE BONE GREAT SINGER.

[BrotherJR76]

@valreshel Sounds like one heck of a show!  Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity yet to see Leela James perform live. One day, I hope to so.

[BrotherJR76]

Pleasantly surprised by so many comments regarding my Leela James upload. Good to see there are so many Leela James fans out there. Shows you that there are people out there who really appreciate sistas who can really SANG!

[uhohlo1]

she reminds me of a female version of anthony hamilton.

[illadelph12]

her voice reminds me of a good plate of greens, chitlins and cornbread. Soulfood for the soul.

[imdoingme]

[valentynej]

Thanks for posting this! I was looking all over for this performance!

[BrotherJR76]

@valentynej No problem, glad you're enjoying this.

[lynxaz]

She is way underrated...I agree with you 100 percent. My it is sad how music fans are missing out on REAL talent...RAW. She is soooo musically mature. Love you Leela...keep making ur music cause there are lots of us who will always listen to what you have to say.

[BrotherJR76]

@lynxaz And maybe it's just me, but Leela James is so sexy and exudes this raw sexuality when she steps to the mic and sings. You can tell that her voice is come deep down from the gut. Glad you and everybody else are enjoying this.

[bonefidefool]

@BrotherJR76 It aint just YOU BRO!!! lmao i promise you it aint. she is What SEXY is. Anyone looking with only the physical Eye would pass her over .

[doxwifey1999]

I love her!!!  Sing it Leela!

[chargeboy]

thank you @BrotherJR76 for posting this I LOVE THIS SONG

[MarieBrazeau1]

you are my joy but not my pain

[biljananana]

RESPECT!

[BrotherJR76]

Check the brother yelling "yeah" at the 2:29 mark after Leela sings "It's funny how u tried to break down my pride". I guess you can say that he's really into the song and the performance, LOL.

[Britgyal]

@BrotherJR76 An absolutely brilliant performance - Thanks for uploading this!

[BrotherJR76]

@Britgyal No problem, glad u r enjoying this. I figured that people would dig this live performance from Leela, she is so underrated.

[BrotherJR76]

@KARMAZOOVISION1 No problem, glad you enjoying this. Leela James is so underrated as a singer as well as a performer.

[NewFlyerDH40LF]

This right here is SOUL.... not neo soul.. like back in the day.

[PatsBooks]

@NewFlyerDH40LF

I agree.  This is not neo soul. Neo soul is singing over a hip hop beat. This is real music, soul music.

[BrotherJR76]

@PatsBooks completely agree!!!
