  • Like most viewers I am just overwhelmed by Nikki's ferocity and finessing of this song. Does anyone know if this rendition with the off-da-chain harmonies can be purchased somewhere? Does Nikki have her own album and if so, could you post info or send mail to my box? Thanks in advance.

  • The BGV's are SICK!!!!! Good Lord!! Nikki killed as usual!

  • @JazzyMusiq88 ummm.. read my comment below yours lol. But yeah the BGVs are still good when they are actually singing

  • @okebaram Lol

  • harmonies man lets gooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • awwww man!!!! the lord blesssed her wit range man utta this world ma fav video nd the harmony u guys r on point

  • to some ppl nikki does too much but there are singers out there for yall that dont do much..nikki is doin everything that some of us need and love to hear!!!!!!!

  • @THEDJAYEFFECT THANK YOU!

  • sometimes ppl do too much

  • The BGv's At the start of it is her preproduction Track she did 2 start!

    it was a tight move! that was not the Back ground vocalist on stage with her. *You can hear it sounds like her*

  • @beatworldproductions FIGURES that when it sounded that good it was actually HER herself... smh she's a beast

  • @natemup yea man!!!! She did the take 6 on it!!! #classic

  • @beatworldproductions O WOW I have watched this video many times, and only now after reading your comment did I notice that the BGV were not singing during that crazy harmony in the beginning! All this time we gave credit to the background singers lol! So that's all Nikki pre-recorded... wow... makes sense. She's an explosion of talent.

  • it's not ever her, it's her BACK UP..ARRRRRRGH!!!

  • 0:09 oh lord, have MERCY on that run

  • Those harmonies are sickk.... they're co clear

    and Nikki is soo anointed- May God continue to bless her.

  • Nicki and Aretha!!!! Let's get a convocation..

    And those back up singers...I wanna do THATTT!!!

    PTL for the JOY of this!!! Thank You!!!

  • And they both can do runs and riffs and scatt! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Some people may feel shes better and some may feel Karen is better. You can't make the person change their mind on how they feel. God has blessed they both with the gift that they had. MAny people wish they can sing and do what they do! Lets just remember with the anointing ANYTHING is possible and can be done.

  • After reading all the comments on part 1 & 2. They both are Beastly. But as far as pitch there is a video on here where Nikki started singing one song in a key and then told the musician to play another song in a different key and named the key. And before the musician even started playing she had already started singing the song in that key! But I feel it is crazy to compare them. They both are sing from the heart and soul and mind. They are both anointed.

  • Her Range is so crazy like i do know shes in a diffrent zone-

  • Comment removed

  • da harmonies are craziiiiee!!!

  • first of all at this point karen Clark Sheard shouldnt even be compared to anybody she has made her name and paid her dues to the music industry but I do have to say that I think Nikki beast every song she do from what I can tell its just who she seems to be !

  • thank u thats all i was tryn to say even on the pt 2 video i jus feel that no one shud b compared to karen cuz most of ppl do in general run and riff wise karen made popular and she has made that name untouchable to me that is

  • who is backgrounding Oh my goddy day!

  • she's like kim burrell, except with a higher range. thank you JESUS!!

  • it's all together, and those are some runs nikki, you know you can sing!!!!

  • She really is better that Karen Clark Sheard. When it comes to her runs and riffs, Nikki has more vision; she is more ambitious!! Her runs are indeed smoother..........

  • hahahahaha im sorry i love nikki buh better then karen thats just funni she is like karen in karen's younger days cuz at the end of the day karen can still get that high and still do 1000 runs that no one as yet to mastor so that jus makes no sense to me whats so ever hafe the stuff she does is stuff that she heard karen do time and time again when she was younger and there is nothing wrong with that its jus a fact

  • Nikki does indeed have a better ear, and smoother more impressive runs, but Karen is stiill unique in her gift, and their styles have many differences. Vocally Karen is also a lot of voice and range, and she is an irreplaceable legend.

  • absolutely not...if Karen never sang another note again she would still be deemed one of the baddest women ever to get behind a mic

  • dude NIkki u already kno u a beast but ur background singers sound rite backin u!

  • i love the backround

  • if those background vocals are all live (which i doubt) those singers need to quit their jobs and be in everybody's session!! they sound great tho

  • I didn't know what to listen too her or the harmony of the singers

  • Dang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • MA'AM!!!!!!!! SANG!!!!!!!!!

  • Well not only was Nikki tearing it out the frame, but those background vocalists were making some SWEET harmonies!

  • they are sick!!!!!!!!

  • Oh My Jesus!!! Do you hear that note at 1:02? Yowzers!

  • That was awesome, nikki is such a beast, as a matter of fact beast is an understatement

  • yah betta stop fakin on my gurl nikki..shes one of the gospel giants,maybe yah didnt know that she's related to that clarks from what i understand..

  • Nikki Ross is beyond incredible...

  • comparing kim and nikki are like comparing dr. pepper and hot chocolate. they are different singers with differents sounds and colors in there voices. you all are idots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I hope your comparing Nikki as the Hot Chocolate... because to me its more like comparing Coke to Pepsi... everyone knows Nikki (Coke) is the best.

  • I happen to like pepsi better but NO, that is not what i was saying young man they are very different singerzzzzzzzzzz. And i LOVEEEE DP baby Dp is the best sodawada created hands down!lol!!!

  • what kind of Christian r u to be callin people idiots and stuff like that? I'm not judging, I'm just sayin. We all have different opinions. She can sing though. God Bless.

  • Talented beyond belief!!! What an amazing gift of GOD. JESUS!!!

  • Well I don't care what nobody says Nikki has one of the best vocals in this generation.

  • kim burrell will sit her down, tamela mann will sit her down after i heard her on whats done in the dark, like uhavechrist said she just hollering and screaming and i cant believe all yall on here kissing her ass sound like a cross between a stroke and she being scared out of a horror movie!!!!!!!!!!

  • yhu aint never lied

    kim will make her cry she can sing but its all bout kim.

  • that is a vocal track that nikki set up before the back up singers & music dont come in till after she says here we go at :55 check it out

  • Love, love it, love it!

  • who are the background singers? they are great- perfect. really.

  • the next time i update my security system i;m gonna put her voice in the box, the sceaming ought to deter the would be thieves - or at least cause my cat to run for THE trees, TRIMMING THEM JUST in time for christmas. THAT SCREAMING WORKS THE INNER CORE OF MY NERVES

  • woo! that was just sick! the back up singers..my GOD...their harmony was flawless!...

  • Nikki sangs!!! I love her.

    I know a man who sung this same song and does not have half the talent she does and tore the church up!!! It was at a wedding.

    Go to "Kirvy Brown sings at Juanita Bynum's sister's wedding" That blessed me too!!!

  • who's the Karen girl that yall talking bout?

  • Ms. Nikki Ross-you are blessed, sister. That voice is AMAZING!!

  • better than karen

  • you foolish, Karen is all in this video.

  • HAHA! she is no wer near Karen!

  • Ummmm, I was referring to her admitting some of Karen's vocal stylings in this video..anyone who has an ear can hear it..

  • and ummmmm, I was referring to 6128387

  • well make sure you hit "reply" beside the person's comment you were "referring" to, because ummmmmm, it came to my e-mail.

  • Who's Karen whats her last name and where can i look her up to her her sing cause if this girl gets it from her i need to know!

  • Karen Clark Sheard she's a solo artist who is also a founding member of the clark sisters who are living gospel legends..she's all over youtube as well.

  • She is combination of Kim Burrell and Karen! She combined there styles and is working it out. I love it!

  • Not in A million years

  • Her voice was flawless this night!!! Yeesssss SSSUuuHHHHH! LOL

  • i love your technique

  • i am speechless right now...that girl can BLOW>>!!!!!

  • I swear I heard Karen at :01-:04, and Kim at :06-:08

  • @ 1:23 she had a luther moment! lol Sing Nikki!

  • LOL

  • you know wht. it doesnt matter who u r like. just minister. thats all that counts. you stay encourage.

  • i enjoyed the song and the arrangement. but you to rmember the runs dont make the sog itsthe annointing. no disrespect, i hope god continues to bless you in everything you do. remember to get that anointing that god has not the one that u think you should have.

  • praise God,. Speak those things that arent as if they are,. Claim it in the name of Jesus. Stay encouraged!

  • Just give God the Glory, its the anointing that braks the yoke. amen

  • sit down...Mariah Carey can't do ish!!!

  • I undestand what you are saying. But we must remember that we are children of Christ. And as children of Christ, we strive to be Christ-like and not judge as the world does. J Moss, Daryl Coley, Lacreshia Campbell, Nikki Ross, and many others, all have a place in this kingdom business. Someone was, is, and will be blessed everytime real ministry goes forth. That is the main focus. There is nothing wrong with having your favorites and backing them. But don't put down your brothers and sisters.

  • Yalll betta give God some glory!!

  • ok ..why are you comparing when she is praising GOD. the voice don't matter really you can be the best singer in the world but if your worship isn't forreal its all over

  • the background vocals are a recording..you can here the technology in there voices,,,then whne the live band starts to play the singers on stage do too

  • yeah that is nikki doing the vocals in the beginning , she is sing all the parts.

  • yup the beginning is Nikki's arrangement

  • i agree that the world loves folks who can sing high range rather than those who got skill in their range,,,but nikki is the best on the mic period!!

  • Like man, those background singers sound so good, they almost sound recorded, lol. Nikki is a beast.

    When you can play the piano, you can hear extra notes.

  • the background singers come in at :55 seconds. but up til then that is Nikki's vocal Arrangement track

  • Her background????? OMGGGGG who are these kids??????? and is it me or it seems like most of these big gospel singers can belt out notes like there's no tomorrow ie kim burrell, Lecresia campbell, Lashun pace

  • John Reddick & Epiphany

    they're on myspace

  • That's TJ??????? I went to school with this fool! him and his team have real grown up vocally I was on the gospel choir with him. my my!!

  • That gal is a sho nuff beast 1 of my favorite sangers lawd have mercey....

  • Nikki is a great singer and has an impecable ear for music, but she's not always annointed...One thing about Karen is every time I see her u feel something cause she's singing like her momma told her..." Like it's your last time"....The annointing makes the difference

  • I don't know Jawon, I think Nikki's range is higher than Kelly's. I do think, however, that nikkie will give Twinkie and Kelly a run for thier money. Karen not quite sure and Kiki; she may be there in a few if she expands her range. But we'll never know until they go at it. That would be a great song(if it ain't a competition first). just my thoughts...

  • i am feeling that accapella quartet especially the last chord before the music comes in...so clean!!! nikki just set a standard....what is amazing she kinda sounds like tonex and karen combined...so i guess she has uniquely blended her influences to make her own sound...good on ya niki!!!!

  • Well we all are entitled to our opinions...But I personally don't feel that how a person should really matter all that much. As long as God is getting the glory is what should matter. And if a person doesn't have any anointing in the song, you sure can't expect for someone else to get something out of it! But every time I hear Nikki sing, it sends chills down my spine. She's anointed!

  • You crazy! This girl sounds amazing.

  • Oh Lord!!! nobody like Niki...and the BVGs are wonderful killer harmony arrangement... I could really feel it.

  • yall need to worry about the SPIRIT not the person singing or what style. mabye YOU need to take a step back and look within yourself to see if you are more into competition of GOD

  • omgosh the backup singers are seriously sick do u hear the harmony. and their off notes like omg

  • That is Nikki doing the background during the first half.

  • i agree dat is sickening

  • does it really matter both karen and nikki have their own style so just let them be. jawon1 talkin bout karen will wear her fat "ass" out. yeah u talk to jesus with that mouth. they are both nasty. but i kno nikki will wear u out. notice i didnt use the word ass to get my point across. and u will be the sameone on sunday speakin in another tounge gettin all santified in service but as soon as church is over u tryin to talk 2 girls.

  • you betta say it!!!

  • nikki is annointed, i can tell, she could lessen her runs only a little bit. singers now days use runs for filliing in spots they think are empty. there is nothing wrong with runs, as long as they aren in excess. She cant be compared to karen, karen at first when she her weight she has had a prob with breath control for a lil while, cuz she not big no more.

  • runs are what the singer feels are appropriate for the song. plus, her runs are great and they are not excessive because that is the way she wanted the song to sound. just because you did not like them does not mean they were out of place.

  • I love me some Nikki, but why she always look a sloppy mess on everything! Her wardrobe person should be KILLED! AND THAT TRAGIC HAIR!

  • no one like her that girl is singing

  • Lets just all agree that they all can Sang!!!

    Kim, Karen, Vanessa and Nikki. I don't take nothin from none of them. The best thing yet is they are using There gift for God!

  • Thank you... a voice of some good sense. Yes, there are some people who can sing a little bit better than others. But, the main point is that they all sing under the anointing of God.

  • Kim Burrell's musical theory knowledge is way superior to that of Nikki's. Nikki is just getting her feet wet. Kim is a legend already. There is no comparison. And they both play the organ, and Kim blows her out of the water with that too.

  • I totally agree with you on this one. I enjoy Nikki, but Kim has been down through the ranks and can really minister. Nikki on the other hand seems more of an entertainer, like Karen. All of them cam sing and I respect them in their rightful place, but hands down Kim is the only one that can really minister and it's not a show.

  • That is not fair, how can you judge someones ministry. If if i didn't know anybetter i woud ask how can you call yourself a christian and you are passing judgement.

  • this is a huge difference between kim and nikki, nikki has alot more range then kim but kim is still my girl and she is the truth when it comes to singing but there voices are similar

  • Thats my gurl....Nikki has been through alot..This song is a testimony to what God can do if you FULLY SURRENDER...This voice is not just another good voice...It has a STORY behind it...Ask her, she will tell you...TO GOD BE THE GLORY...SING NIKKI!!!

  • I love Nikki Ross' voice but I dont think I could listen to a whole cd of her singing! but she is a beast and she does sound like Karen and I can't listen to a whole cd of this Karen, Finally Karen yes!!!

  • A live performance is totally diffrent than a cd. She is a beast. She can do things that normal people like us can't do. She is another Kim Burrell. However they do have two diffrent styles. Nikki is BAD!!!

  • BEASTLY...

    i can think of no other words

  • She sound just like Karen Clark Sheard and like her spin on total praise.

  • SOORY NOTING PERSONAL, not tryna strat nuttin but her & Karen have 2 totally different styles. Their are similar elemnts & arrangements of riffs but thas bout it. tHE DELIVEREY "TOTALLY DIFFERENT"!

  • I totally agree.

  • hahahaha ya i caught that a couple months ago lol. dont do him lol!!!!

  • but did u hear the fake tounge by the camera man lol

  • I was the camera person sir or madam...how u know it was fake LOL

  • her runs r sick

  • yeah.....I think she does too many runs....you can't really focus on the songs

  • what can be said for such an awesome gift of ministry through song such as Nikki Ross's? Absolutely amazing voice!!!

  • Do you hear the take 6 harmonie in the background of her killing the solo....amazing....

  • I feel not only the notes but the sincerity in the notes she delivers.....question, is there one that's too high for her??? God is always giving incredible gifts

  • HER EAR IS CRAZY!

    myspace. com /fashionsflyest

  • check out nikkis background vocals on this thang they are on point just like her i'm sure it's one of the nikki ross famous arrangements lord help us jesus

  • im not convinced that they are singing the backgrounds.....there too clean and clear....it appears as though they are standing there....and when they go in to the "You are tha...." you see hand movement and the such....i shoot'em straigh....

  • oh maybe but whoever did them they on point the arrangement is crazy tht was my main point her ear makes me absolutely sick

  • Nikki Ross ... notes ... runs ... everythang!!! God is truly blessing her and has placed an abundant annointing upon her.

  • check NORMAN THOMAS on Youtube a true Beast!

  • Maybe all of you shouldnt be arguing over this topic, bcuzz technically it doesnt really matter what any of us thinks...God knows who and what the song is being sang for...and annointing speaks without any imlications thereof....capische? and btw runs(tonex/kim burrell) do not always equal annointing, and neither does a pure voice like cece winans/yolanda adams...however how it ministers and affects people is a strong determinant.

  • The child makes me fair nervous!

  • i'm so sick of hates man! like someone else said, people who can't do run and riffs, are just jealous cause they can't do them. on a positive note, ms. nikki, you are a beast! just when i thought i had heard it all, then here you come girl. Theres no other way to explain it but the annointing!

  • Thank you shaylaarielle! All these people hatin on Nikki bcuz she has perfect timing with her runs; they're not sloppy, and they are SICK runs! Beastin all day long. All these fake wanna be singers have sooo much to say, but if presented with the oppurtunity to get on stage with her, they would be laughed off! People just hatin bcuz they can't do the runs! Keep practicin kiddies! LOL, I can go on 4 dayz, but i'll stop. She's comin to my fathers church May 27 for our midnight musical, can't wait!

  • Unfortunately these days if you don't do all those runs, people won't think of you as an annointed singer...but I do Love Nikki!...I just wish someone could be out and just sing without all the runs!...Sometimes when a song is just sung straight through it can minister more than all the runs!...I do allot of runs in my singing, but my Bishop has to tell me to calm down a little so people can be ministered to and not runned down!..LOLl...But again not hating on Nikki...The girl is bad!

  • This girl is annointed!!!!! If she decides to run the whole song and it sounds good then so be it!! God is obviously pleased because he has elevated her into a place to where she can praise Him and save souls. One of ya get up there and do it better please. God Bless!!!

  • Haters!!!!!!!

  • shakes my head at Nikki Ross...thats a bad girl!!!!
