I saw Vesta in Cleveland, Ohio at the Palace Theatre downtown (1998?) at the Tri-C Jazz Fest, along with Will Downing, Phil Perry, Gerald Albright, and a Host of Others...! She was and IS a Phenomenal Singer and that range is OFF THE CHARTS! RIP Dear Vesta! Should have gotten Grammys and awards for the voice, the love she gave to fans, and her Joyous Spirit that kept all of us Rolling in laughter! The Angels are sangin' now! GOD Bless Vesta!
to rollinhard7 im sorry bro i work for Chaka and you know how rumors go around but this is what was stated to me during the years, glad it wasn't me. lol
Everyone i want you to know the truth about Vesta, she was a talented singer and loved and wanted to be Chaka so bad!!! She didnt blow up because she didnt have her own identity and the record companies already had Chaka, i loved Vestas music but she sounded so much and acted like Chaka that made it difficult for her. She did background vocals for Chaka and through the years never got along with Chaka. RIP girl. Its just like Lady GAga and Madonna
@raybarks100 Uhm..........nah.... She was her only person and she believed and loved herself as she was. You dont believe me watch her special on Unsung. I'm telling you man.
@raybarks100 Where the hell you get THAT from? Vesta did background vocals for A LOT OF PEOPLE. She didn't blow up because the record company didn't INVEST in her as they SHOULD have. Vesta didn't want to be Chaka...she wanted to be one bad ass Vesta.
And she was.
I agree, you do need to watch unsung. Vesta had no identity crisis at all...
@raybarks100 - You are sadly mistaken about your "truth" about Ms. Vesta. She said herself, she didn't want to be another Chaka Khan! The record companies couldn't "mold" her and make her a trained seal - her own words! She was who she was...VESTA...PERIOD AND DOT!
Vesta Williams was one of the most talented singers of my time, not only was she gifted, she was so BEAUTIFUL. May you R.I.P, Thank you for sharing your gift.
@mzchyna01: It has not been confirmed what happened to Vesta Williams. A man was seen leaving the hotel who came in with Vesta. Not sure if foul play was involved. Do not want to put the stigma of suicide until we know for sure. She was a beautiful, beautiful, talented woman. Sorely missed.
Her voice is like butter. I miss music like this. R.I.P. Vesta
