I know folks like to compare artists, but PLEASE STOP!!! Rachelle is Rachelle and Ledisi is Ledisi. They're both divinely gifted in what they do and what they bring to the world through their music. So don't hate, just appreciate.
Nobody can do it like this woman here, she uses her training, her skills and God given talent in the best ways possible, her voice is like an instrument that pierces the eardrums and makes it bleed soul/jazz/spiritual/rock/funk/neo-soul that will not clot - and that's a good thing...She is the truth.
Ledisi can't be touched and neither can Rachelle....there is enough space in the world for two untouchables....They are both legends in their own right!!!
In response too all the comparisons, only an average and common mind tries to compare art and artist. you don't know real art or how to view or listen to it when you are doing that. but most def, i mean hands down, ledisi is the truth. The Truth, no doubt.
WOW! Look at God :0) Make u wanna slap yo momma. . .LOL! Ledisi was feelin that. . .lookin' like Stevie. If you're feelin' Ledisi check out Rachelle Ferrel and Lalah Hathaway.
Don't get me wrong, Rachelle is on top of her game. She's the queen of octaves. Her range is out of this atmosphere but when it comes to scating I think Ledisi's style is more dynamic.
I'm sorry, although I've been on ledisi since her independent record soulsinger, I'm a religious rachelle ferrell listener, not many people can touch her, I agree that ledisi is in a league of her own with the scating, but musical improvisation in its entirety, mama rachelle's domain. listen to rachelle ferrell third album individuality and listen to "why you wanna mess it all up" and then come back and comment lol!
I have many times. Not only have I watched that, but I've seen her perform it live, and ,although amazing, its planned. there's more than one video of her performing that song on youtube, if you watch em' you'll see that that whole going to work scat thing is done many times, its not true improv. rachelle on the other hand does true improv. I've seen her live 4 times and each time she did a different version of each song with a different story behind it and everything, truly original!!!
Ledisi and Karen have totally different styles. Karen cannot scat like Ledisi and Ledisi cannot do Karen's runs, vocal stunts or singing style. And there are videos of Ledisi singing apart from scatting so you can check them out. Ledisi, Rachelle Ferrell, Karen etc all are "crazy" with their unique styles and musicality... all beasts in their impressive unique artistry
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is ella her grand mammy?!

I love it at 2.16 when her body can't handle not moving.. it's like a soul spasm or something.. I can't believe this woman.. Extraordinary..

Haha, all she did was slap her knee. I see a soul spasm at 2:29. But this made me actually start liking her music. Go Ledisi!
