This proves how wrong racism is, these 3 are super beings! Dont hate just cause of the colour of their skin, expecially when they do things you cant dream of!
I originally didn't look for this clip because I thought Latifah just ruined it with her bad voice. Now I realize that she just did what those rappers with their karaoke boxes from Asia taught her. Besides who am I to get picky about my opera? It still looks & sounds like Kathleen Battle plus equal opportunity Laurel & Hardy.

obama isn't black and he doesn't give a fuck about anyone a part from the people he must serve the nwo terrorists people are so naive Alicia keys is a mixture of Italian Irish and jamaican but was raised in New York
the microphones never work properly at the amas...at the 09 amas paula abduls wasnt on and there was another audio prob. and here queen latifah had audio problems with her mic
i mean i love alicia, listened to her new album like 6 times in two days and i love queen latifah, she my queen and i have to admit if da mic had worked from da beginnin da part with latifah would have been dope, i really think they should make a remix or a song togetha or whateva, but da ole lady in da end, i aint got nothing against opera singers, love dat shit, if it's a quiet sunday, i wanna get a lil inner peace, i'll listen to somn like dat, but it didn't work with dis song, it just didn't
I love Alicia Keys. I think she is a really great musician and I love that she is soulful and jazzy when others around her like to pump out the same typical pop hit formula. However, this performance does not make any sense. The operatic part does not fit with the song and it cannot be heard very well anyway. The queen latifah part could have worked ok if her mic was on in time and she cut out all the talking and just did some basic rap. Alicia was great of course, but together it did not work.
@ty2 The opera Lady well know in the opera world lots lot of her voice power. I was surprise watching this and expecting the Kathleen Battle would blow away everyone there ( in a good way). But as we all know ( opera fans) she was a huge evil mean Bitch in the past, so I think she has what she deserves lol
@RonaldBarone She is just perfectionist, and that have always annoyed mediocre people, such as you. She was never evil, just a diva(rightfully so), she was the only soprano invited to sing in the New Year's Concert in Vienna, by Karajan himself, sang for 2 popes, still is the best payed soprano in the history of the Met, was acclaimed as "the best lyric coloratura in the world" by the TIME Magazine. She sure deserves her imense fortune, her huge appartment in Manhattan and her army of fans. ;)
this was a travesty. complete mess. crap. i have a feeling somebody was like...hmmmm what random 3 ladies can we put together....ummm ok alicia and queen are pretty hot right now, and um just for novelty's sake, let's bring in super-diva kathleen battle to show off her impressive (allbeit COMPLETELY inappropriate for this song) pipes...
la música (lo que dice y transmite) no es exclusivamente clásica y estoy seguro que kathleen lo entiende; no soy fan de latifah, pero si lo soy de la battle y de la keys, bien por las tres!
