Ledisi - Higher Than This "Live at The Experience" Part 1

[ClarenceDaArts]

Amazing.com Its Extremely Rare To Find A Artist Who Sounds So Pure And Real "LIve"

[Raquel314]

girl that last part almost moved me to tears

[xenaphonj]

i wish she would make a live cd of all the slow songs she sings

[educatorpoet]

I love Ledisi facial expressions when she is singing. Too cute. Now, that's what you call " Getting Ugly With It !" I love, love this song. I love the arrangement. I need this version with the acoustic. Feelin' It!

[ladylightnin1]

PHENOMINAL PERFORMANCE!

[MrSmoking1984]

wow alter she is amazing

[Junkman2000]

I've never heard this song before and she brought a tear to my eye. Her pitch is so perfect! She's all over every note. So much talent, I wish her the best.

[dburl02]

Thank you Jesus......

[paulalove2011]

What can be higher than this!



[paulalove2011]

God I Thank you!

[inniacarter]

I love this song and her spirit! You can see God is in her!

[BRAZiLBOiyEE]

Hallelujah I'm in tears!! Thank you Ledisi! :)

[anansa2sexy]

I LOVE THIS SONG IT JUST MAKE YOUR HEART MELT..!!

[SuperJadeDragon]

I love how she looks like she's seizuring to sing how she feels. It's like The Clark Sister or Fantasia kicking off her shoes when she goes in. She is good secular but she would be better singing for Christ who gave her that gift. She is way better that Jennifer Hudson to me and she has more personality in her voice as well as her body when she sings than jennifer. I wish Ledisi would do a duets album with Beyonce, Brandy, Patti, Gladys, Chaka, Etta, Mavis, The Clark Sisters, Fanny, D. Coley.

[tmmoseby]

I love this song...my relative put me on game about it being about God- makes it an even more amazing song!

[LiLBraids4LiLGirls]

Annointed



[NoSuchThingAsTrinity]

she's a beast. Period

[MarvBerry]

Her backup singers are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,, Right along with HER!

[strong706]

her back up singers suck

[MIKEDEANDRE08]

the girl is sick point blank lol i love this lady

[strong706]

We gotta support these type of artists who are really GIFTED!!!!

[KarenC8]

The girl iz raw!!!!

[pretibrowniss]

I LOVE THE LIVE PERFORMANCE BETTER THAN THE STUDIO...SO RAW

[prjtmusiz]

U Better Sing Ledisi I <3 Her :)

[DivaMafioso]

This sends chills up my spine!

[AKAIRI4]

I FEEL LIKE THEY REALLY TRYING TO SLEEP...SHE WILL ARROUND LONGER THAN BEYONCE,RHIANNA,ECT...BECAUSE SHE IS REAL AND HER VOICE IS IN A CLASS ALL ITS OWN FOR REAL..SHE IS THE FUTURE OF R&B NO LIE

[msdanae0071]

She is an Amazing Vocalist ........

[Woozyb123]

@Andiv67 I agree wit u becuz god will ask her everyday to sang 4 heaven! i cnt WAIT!

[broke2471]

LMAO...Ledisi ain't no Joke....I love her so much. I can't wait til she comes to town I will be front row and center. Someone says that they don't know why she is so underrated, and that's probably because she doesn't exalt herself like this chics that out in the "game" now..and that's what the industry is now, "a game"...Miss Ledisi has her following and if she continues to stay committed to the music & who she is God will continue to bless her. She doesn't have to sell her soul.

[FunkDoppler]

Nice!

[KomplicatedKidd09]

3:45 is funny but you know she's really into what she's singing about.

[blakdog90]

i love jill scott, but ledisi is blowing me away right now. didn't know she was doing it like that,.....so underrated

[dluisboi]

64,000 PPL WATCHED PART ONE BUT Y'ALL NEED TO SCROLL ON OVER TO PART 2 FOR THE RAWNESS EVOKED!! SHE IS PURE TALENT AND SHE KEEPS IT REAL WITH NO APOLOGIES.... COME ON IN THE ROOM Y'ALL!!

[MrSexxxy20]

I LOOOVE Ledisi her mannerisms are funny.

[xpressions3]

I love this performance! It seems so genuine.

[MsSimplyme77]

u betta sang gul!!!!

[pretibrowniss]

made from perfection...

[okebaram]

AWESOME!!!

[niawuzherre232]

I'm young, but .... Ledisi inspires me and she is more than simple talent, she's got EXTRAORDINARY talent and no one can speak upon her bad cause she can outsing anybody just by doing a scale. Beautiful words, heart, and mind.. alond with her looks etc..!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FailarielArFeiniel]

she's sooo...gosh, no words to describe it...i wish music industry was more about this kind of singer (: love ya Ledisi! <3

[pretibrowniss]

she is very unique as far as talent no words realy describe her

[JusticeLoveandPeace]

Ledisi is just an explosion of talent and soul on stage. This moved me to tears!

[leewill04]

I think Ledisi is at her best in a simple setting where she can be as honest, theatrical and silly and she doesn't need to stay in format, time constraints or worry about outsinging anyone else.

[liftimyall]

@leewill04 Truly

[ULOOKAFOOL]

It just baffles me how someone like Rhianna can surpass someone like Ledisi when it comes to fame! This lady deserves to be sitting next to the top divas in the game right now! No gimmicks, No BS, just talent...!

[AKAIRI4]

@ULOOKAFOOL ...I KNO DATS REAL SHE HAS RAW TALENT BABY!!!!

[pretibrowniss]

@ULOOKAFOOL TRULLY AGREE...THATS THE WORLD TODAY

[Shama212]

@ULOOKAFOOL I can thumbs up a trillions of times for the statement you put you are so right

[dswcornish]

@ULOOKAFOOL It's because she is too chocolate.... if you notice.... chocolate girls don't ever move up too fast....its all about being slightly tan and having a good body,,, with no flabbiness!!! But she is so beautiful, just as beautiful as Beyonce and Rhianna but they won't ever give her the recognition she been out since the 90's

[Simonesa241]

@dswcornish I don't think it's because she is chocolate... I do think it's because she is fat and she is singing spiritual music over sex.. Everyone knows sex sales. It's sad but true!

[nmotion40]

@ULOOKAFOOL YEP..I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND IT!!!!!!

[soulsista1220]

@ULOOKAFOOL Because the industry is more into appearance than real, pure talent now

[blkarmyman]

@ULOOKAFOOL I'm a HUGE Ledisi fan, got ALL of her stuff, but to answer your question: the people who buy music don't necessarily buy music based upon what your voice sounds like, they tend to buy what makes them move and can make them feel good - that's why 50 Cent outsells Patti LaBelle! It's not always about singing ability, Diana Ross was the Beyonce' of her day and could barely outsing today's Rihanna. People buy what they like, and to blast one singer over another is unfair.

[ULOOKAFOOL]

@blkarmyman My comment wasn't to blast anyone! At the end of the day; Rihanna, as well as Ledisi, are both respected women in their own genres. However, why does the music industry make it seem like it can be only 1( or maybe 2) of "our women" singing crossover songs to come off more appealing?! Why can't women/men who respect the real art of R&B/Neo-Soul be pushed to the forefront and shoved down our throats like the rest of them...Curb Appeal I guess. #shrugs

[mrenee167]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE her facial expressions! it really shows that she is singing! continue to do what you do Ledisi!

[tgordon1986]

loooove this song. i would love to hear Ledisi and Tamela Mann do a song together

[Dria210]

Praise Him!!! Love It!

[okebaram]

@Dria210 you got to watch part 2 too if you did not!

[icarrus4u]

NaaaaaaaaatuuuuuuuuuuuuRAL!!! I love this woman!

[MarvBerry]

Sheer TALENT.. her voice is a GIFT!!!!

[TheRedeemedDiva]

I love this chic! Her music really inspires !

[IndependentRationale]

She is great

[badassyellowgirl]

I enjoy Ledisi so much..what a unique voice..what talent..god has truly put some wonderful and talented women on his earth

[ValZippy]

What da what??? Queen Ledisi, you've got me shoutin' over here. Ain't nothing but THE TRUTH!!

[kelashaneemauldin]

[Bl6ckWom6n]

@kelashaneemauldin Aint he thou! lol.

[blkndabomb04]

They Sangin!

[goldy123123]

OF DA CHAIN!

[brittvocals]

love tasia she a beas 4real... but um ledisi come on thats something on a whole i mean whole nother level

[mZHollywoodJ]

Why do people keep sayin she and fantasia sound alike? There is no comparison TRUST!!!

[CUTECHICAGO3]

Ledisi sounds a little like Fantasia but people that really know music and sounds will easily know the difference between the two.

[Bl6ckWom6n]

@CUTECHICAGO3 Yes they are very similar, I actually thought that's who Fantasia evolved from, but Led was on a soul and jazz tip since 1995 . So yes, we can detect the difference in the two, but would actually make for a legimate contrast as opposed to most pointless ones. ;)

[befiasco32]

i jus love her LIVE.......she sounds jus like the record, if not better. nd i jus love all the emotion she pours into her music, without a doubt one of the best VOCALIST we have had in a long time!!!!

[tahjb]

i'm trying to figure out whats the trend with artists only having two background vocalists... the recession must have really hit EVERY industry and profession.. smh

[msfaith2u]

Ledisi = quite possibly the best singer I've EVER heard! I get chills every time I hear her sing.

[Andiv67]

@msfaith2u check out rachelle ferrell

[brittvocals]

She"s so anointed make sure yall watch "part two"

[MySistersKeeper1]

I Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So AwESOME

[kin1276]

She is too AWESOME!!

[adrban7733]

REALLY!!!......I am simply SPEECHLESS!! ANNOINTED!!

[bombaymahogany]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

[MsPeoplesgirl]

I really enjoy the words to this song...."Nothing higher: then Lord and we must walk up right because he has a plan and will for our life."

[AmorMuse]

YES LEDISI!!!! she said..yall don't want to hear that part, I'm too spiritual for yall...I love it!

[WCJMusic1]

I have chills listening to this!!! Love your musicianship, girl :-)

[Scorpio11686]

I WATCH THIS EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!!!!!! I LOVE LEDISI!!!

[JusticeLoveandPeace]

Vocal perfection!!!!!!!

[Andiv67]

her ministering blesses me deep down on the inside and heals me, like when david played his harp 4 saul.  music is soooo powerful and gifts and callings come without repentance. i'm so glad she's on the lord's side. to go through out eternity and never hear this angelic sound again would be such a loss 4 the kingdom. thank u ledisi for loving god 4 real and obeying him...thank u for the post as well. this ministered to me all night!!!!! GLORY!!!!!!!!!!

[SuperFred1992]

OMG LEDISI IS SOOO AMAZING PURE BEAUTIFUL VOICE AND THIS IS MY FIRST TIME HEARING HER IM A FAN NOW

[RockinItNatural1]

Love this song, and this artist...I could see her over and over again in concert!!!  Talented!!!!

[infiniteblaq08]

Wow!

[Scorpio11686]

LEDISI IS MY GIRL, I LOVE HER STRAIGHT UP RAW VOCALS!!!!!!!!!!

[FunkyPraise]

Man I love Ledisi. Her voice is phenomenal and her lyrics are inspirational. But, I also have to say as a fellow guitar player...dude is hanlin his bidness...

[kizzirock]

OM(GOSH)!!!! LEDISI IS THE TRUTH!! I LOVE HER, I SO WISH THAT I COULD SEE HER IN CONCERT ONE OF THESE DAYS... I'M LIKE TOTALLY EXCITED FROM WATCHING THIS VIDEO... MY MY MY!!

[zydecoboi1]

This lady is so great!!!! She is the most underrated artist today. Vocally she has no equal and people in the industry realize it, now the public just has too catch on!!! The first lyrics are so spirirtual and this inspires me to be a better husband, father,and human being!!!LOVE YOU LEDISI AND YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL TOO.

[liftimyall]

That boy is handling that guitar

[KENNYBOO504]

I love this song. Ledisi is a refreshing inspiration in the music world. Love her.

[dmens17]

21 years old and i'm sorry to say that i'm just finding her. however i'm glad that not one day further has past b4 i discovered her thank God!

[politicaldebauchery]

too talented. love her!

[NnerCityWar]

It is so unreal how she can make this song reach into u and pull that spiritual being from your body!

[canfais15]

1:06 gives me chills everytime

[bombaymahogany]

[mstmh33]

She sings just a beautifully live as she does in the studio. Now that's talent!

[fmcrae622]

Lawd...Lawd...Lawd!

[taleria1972]

[fmcrae622]

This woman ain't nothing but the truth.....God is truly using her to spread his beauty with us...we are truly blessed to have her!!! WOW...she inspires me to be better every day!! Much luv to Ms. Ledisi! I too shared this video with my FB fam! I can't stop listening to her CD.....

[blu8two]

[southsongbird]

i love this bish!!!

[Lyric06able]

This LADY is AWESOME I LOVE music and she has it coming out her pores.........Im SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[danmodun]

I wanted to share this song w/ my FB Fam because in my opinion (mind you) the words embody the very Essence of Mankind's quest to praise the Creator. The Artist Ledisi declares 'Love' as the Highest Thing (noun) that She is Aware Of. Her question~What Can Be Higher Than This?~ is what Man is in Search of

[consadacake]

awesome!!!

[MarieChante]

this is my anthem!

[jackandcoke420]

She is the bestest!!!

[Rashaan01]

The best live performance ive Ever seen! Wonderful !

[lilseaxydee]

HER AND FANTASIA HAVE THE SAME STYLES

[sherrosgirl]

@lilseaxydee how dare you compare my Ledisi to Fantasia?! The two are nothing alike. You gonna make me take off my earrings! :-)

[Andiv67]

@sherrosgirl I know that's right, girl!!  i got ur back! hahahahahahahaha...

[Bl6ckWom6n]

@sherrosgirl and @Andiva67 Lol. Don't hurt nobody now! They do sound a little similar, but I'm sure the difference can be deteced. I love em both and wouldn't prefer either one over the other and actually think they could funk something up together. ;) Lol. In the words of Michael Jackson "its all for love) Lol. :)

[agoodbrotha]

DEAR GOD!!!!! Where has this woman been!!! This has got to be one of the greatest live vocal performances I have ever heard!!! I just found out about her. My girlfriend was playing the song in the car yesterday, so I decided to check out the video at work today. IT GIVES ME CHILLS!!! I am a new fan!!! Phoenix Arizona.

[educatorpoet]

Ooowee! This is one of my favorites off her cd. Ledisi killed it. She showed out. People recognize good talent when they see it. She is phenomenal. Her voice, runs and riffs are sick. She so spoke the truth on here. I listen to this song every morning. This encourages you and straight lifts you up. I just want to throw a shoe, towel or something on that stage. lol

[truthofjuly]

I have been watching this video everyday this week-It is so inspirational and she blows it sooooo hard-geeze, i had to comment again!!! Postin this on FB right now!!! Praise Him!

[ilindah]

love it!!

[truthofjuly]

whooooo I need to see the bay's finest live!!! that gave me tears, as much as I have heard this song....her presence ;live, is on point!!! Go head ledi!!!

[peonie123456789]

[biackdragon555]

OMG! i love you!!! you're voice is so amazing

[xircle]

the girl is just dope. love her music. very few sound good in the studio and live without help.

[kendallganaway]

I love this song and her performance...she clowned!!! So Amazing!!!!

[befiasco32]

i LOVE this song its my morning anthem!

[JjAa4321]

it's a must i go to her concert LOVE HER

[seriouslyandrae]

she reminds me of my girl Chrisette Michelle

[amychic88]

Amazing..she is da truth...I need to c her in concert!!!!!

[star329]

you will never be disappointed if you see Ledisi perform live.. she can really sing unlike alot of these people out here today.. i've seen her perform live twice she is amazing, a voice truly a gift from God!!

[demonwind92]

Man I would loss my damn mind at a Ledisi concert lol she always makes you feel her music and thats what makes her so REAL...<3

[chinkyeyes86]

OK, i must see Ledisi in concert....

[dovail1]

SHE IS JUST RAW LOVE U GIRL

[tmharr63]

Magnificent performance. 3:44 - 3:47 Priceless.

[atlbruisor]

can u hear the peoples response to her performance. there is no problem with her delivery. one of the best i have ever heard.

[ItsMyWorldCW]

I NEED to see her in concert!! Love her style and music!

[thickandsexie1]

This is a sign that GREAT SINGERS still exist!!!

[wkw0801]

This song truly touched me in so many ways...I am a new fan of Ledisi...You Go Girl!!

[ucit01]

I have been to 4 of her shows and they are GREAT each and every time! She is such a humble and grounded individual. When she is in your city make sure you get a ticket! LOL!

[dirtydee38]

OMG! Oh My God! Thank you youtube, Michael Baisden and of course the Creator!

[nubiansista4life]

Why do you think she is exaggerating? Ledisi is singing about her love of GOD. When African-Americans sing about GOD, we sing out of our hearts. You can tell this song is her personal song, because she is continually adding a part of herself to each interpretation. Ledisi didn't win any Grammys this year, but I hope she get another chance in the future. Thank you, Ledisi!

[browngirl71]

This is my jam! I love Ledisi!

[prof32]

Unbelievable! Another amazing job! Believe it or not, she was actually holding back. Ledisi is a wonderful humble spirit and she just sings what she feels. Her pitch is impeccable and if you know the message of what she is singing, she's actually giving the song what it requires in my humble opinion.

[Ueberbacker]

less is more, but she is a good singer, nice vibe

[bemaniac2]

she can definately do the toned down thing, but she didnt feel like it lol!

[TruthSerum101]

@Ueberbacker

"Less is more" is a cliche NOT a rule. Sometimes less is less and sometimes more is more. This was a case of the latter for me.

[Ueberbacker]

you dont have to exagerate to show off your pipes, that was my point

[TruthSerum101]

I knew what you meant. I simply disagree. I don't think she is exaggerating or showing off.

[Ueberbacker]

alright then :-]

[pf243]

actually shes singin it exactly like on the album. now her performance on the Monique show you could say she slightly went overboard.

either way no exageration here..

[Ueberbacker]

I'll check her performance there =)

did she win her grammy or not?

[pf243]

cool! ..

no she didnt win, unfortunately.

[rdenisedb]

Ledisi..is.... an Entertainer/Vocalist/Musician/­Lyricist & a DAMN good singer... n my opinion the best female singer to ever be in the biz......this is what she does.......if she gave borin concert performances folks wouldn't buy tickets.......that's like sayin MJ over did it the way he performed........he was a perfectionist & the best of all time.......so is Ledisi....she is just doing what she does...this is her style & I luv it!.

[rdenisedb]

....if u notice when singin w others she doesn't try to outshine them.....very respectful...I know like everybody else knows whos BADD...LEDISI is off the richter scale...I can't wait to c her in concert!

[chynahgirl]

You bettter SANG!!

[ardriono]

Ridiculous talent!

[mistymonee]

I am so grateful for Your Debut into this World....that's all i can really say Ledisi - so MUCH LOVE I GIVE TO YOU

[mstae2u]

I had the pleasure of seeing this performance live... I heart her and this song!

[worshiponmymind]

MAN I LOVE YOU LEDISI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrTroyShawn]

GOD I LOVE THIS WOMAN LEDISI is the freaking best her and my other babies Rachelle Farrell and Anegela Winbush

[Dysl24]

[JNicety]

I absolutely love this woman and I will always respect her tremendous gift. She continues to inspire me - What an awesome individual! I LOVE you momma and yes I bought the records :) And hint to everyone else. You should support this woman too!!!

[MizKizIz]
