Your Daddy's Son From The Musical Ragtime

[calvinstafford08]

Will you please record this again singing it a little slower?!

Great voice!

[SpringNoel10]

Beautiful. =)

[MuzicMan118]

This was WAY to fast...

[anonymousarecool]

her technique is so wrong...

[kissrk2]

@anonymousarecool how so???



[AyanaWhite]

Amazing! That was soo inspiring. I love thissong sooo much, I song it for my high school as well but not like that. :) Got my eyes watering LOL. Again Amazing!

[Roberterry16]

You have an amazing voice but I had trouble feeling the emotion a little. I don't know if it's the environment you're in while performing or not it wasn't there. Don't get me wrong, I would love to work with you one day if the opportunity came along but emotionally detached I felt.

Congrats on over 25,000 views and I look forward to seeing you soon

[OmegaLara685]

Rip the audio from this tune at tubepull doht cohm.

[BANANAS7502]

[MikeysGayToday]

[mikachan1128]

Um not to be too critical but it was too fast i mean not by that much but it could have been slowed down. I'm in the play Ragtime currently so i know what i'm talking about. You may not like my criticism and i'm sorry if i hurt your feelings at all but other than it being too fast i thought you did well.

[chiefexecutivelady]

@mikachan1128 what role are you in it? probaly not the lead.....and probaly can not sing like this girl

[teedyboo12005]

Yayy.!

[lsablan]

[helenstageright]

[jovjelen]

[kkttqqluvr]

Amazing.

[candiiapple15]

[RoxOutLoud69]

the girl who played sarah at drurey lane theatre. came t our school and sung this sone with so much emothion. there was not a dry eye in that whole room. it is an expierence i will never forget.

GURLLL YOU KILLED THIS SONG.

[khamikins]

I love it love it love it. you are special. and have a magnificent voice and the gift of interpretation. Brava

[GEEkRoBot08]

The was too Fast :;/

Otherwise Pretty Good.

[bassclef2012]

@GEEkRoBot08 was not too fast. if you would listen to audra mcdonald she rushed it as well.

[khamikins]

@bassclef2012 Audra is slower than this. It makes a big difference.

[jflore0770]

what a fantastic voice.tempo a bit to fast for me, but wow,, im a fan

[squeee52]

ya owned that song.

[sheenak3]

Wonderful tone! When the music's volume goes down dont be afraid to project a little more. Your body language is stiff but your facials say all. Match it up and youre undeniable!!

[narc1515t]

Kadijah, I need to sing Disneyland from Smile for my life please. Thanx :)

[JonesinInmyBones]

this was amazing. Easy as Life from Aida would have been an even better choice

[JonesinInmyBones]

this was amazing. Easy as Life from Aida would have been an even better choice

[xstepharooo]

amazing. just amazing.

[cheech80]

love it

[bcdada]

Your so amazing!!! Your the reason why i fell in love with this song and posteda vid of me singing it!! I didnt do as good as you did! But i tried so hard!!! Great job!!!

[ballroomvirgin]

AMAZING!!! OMG YES!!! I WANT MORE!!!!

[Ndbstar729n]

WHAT IS SHE WEARING??!?!

[GEEkRoBot08]

@Ndbstar729n a Bodysuit :l

Try to Pay attention to the voice instead of the clothes.

[Judill]

She's a wonderful singer, but her voice doesn't suit this song at all. This is for a classically trained soprano, not a pop belter. Riffs don't belong in "Your Daddy's Son." Listen to Audra McDonald for the definitive version of this song.

[Ndbstar729n]

@Judill I agree! Good singer, wrong song

[ballroomvirgin]

disagree...this song calls for passion...classical it sounds really fake..she did an amazing job....and she's creative it would have been boring and horrible if she tried to do sing it just like Audra

[jtlover6220]

plzzzz do more

[dacanceruwishuwere94]

she's ASTOUNDING, i love her belting and vibrato!!

[bubykins69]

How does this come so naturally?!?! amazing ,speechless ...

[JWolfy84]

This is my very favourite ragtime song....i thought i was the only one to love it anymore!

[mommieyaya]

That was so professional, I was waiting for the applause at the end! Great Job!

[JairusSteed]

I'm reminded of Stephaine Mills coming to broadway in the 1975 as dorthy in the Wiz, it was a special moment, a special singer, a special girl, a voice large than life, for a special part .... your performance is THAT good and THAT on. bravo! come to ny soon please! If you are not already in communication with a pro agent, please get in touch and I can make some recommendations bravo!

[JairusSteed]

word! beautiful!!! broadway bound!

[narc1515t]

OMG!!!!!! YOU BETTA NEVER STOP STOP SINGIN!!!! Thas prolly my favorite rendition of that song and, so effortlessly so. SANG!

[HeHeIcankindofsing]

Control is a beautiful thing isn't it...your voice is quite fabulous, I just felt that I should say that... oh and that guy at the begining was pretty good looking... nothing like a guy in black hehe....*grins and giggles*

[singinpsyco18]

this girl is singing her face off.

[acrosten]

@singinpsyco18

Of course, you and I would find the same video JIM. And you're right. This girl is amazing!!!

[latriceha]

@singinpsyco18 lmao her face ? lmaoooo

[nwsaninja]

Id love to see you do better. I think she was acting and I could see the pain in her eyes. Read up on the show latriceha

[JonesinInmyBones]

[CcAoRrIoNnAa]

I met michael w here in California and people keep telling me I should sing this song, so he had me listen to this cause he's friends with you...

AMAZING....my jaw was dropped the whole time :)

[vocalpianist]

You're AWESOME! Can I ask, what did you think of the NFAA? I'm auditioning this year, (well, auditioned, I'm awaiting results hah)

[josephjminasi610]

OMG I JUST CRIED!!!!!

[MattyFresh05]

[VivianNgo123]

saw this in a revue last fall...the song stuck with me ever since...LOVED this performance of this :]

[Lifestyles5885]

yesssssss mizzzz gurrrrrrr

[jlow121]

Beautiful! And THANK YOU for not mimicking Audra McDonald. Yes, she originated the role beautifully but that doesn't mean that the song needs to be sung exactly the same. If we wanted to hear Audra McDonald hear the song, we'd listen to the cd.

Thank you for letting us see YOU sing the song. This is such a gorgeous interpretation.

[jlow121]

@jlow121 and by "hear the song" I meant "sing the song" hahaha. 8 months later.

[5678tothestage]

Beautiful. You know you're in the presence of great talent when you feel like you've just come out of a hypnotic state when the performance is over.

[bobitlukban]

Whew! Blew me off! Wonderful interpretation!

[evenesence21]

moreee hurry!! ive watched this video 3 times XD

[mulioctaveman]

Khadijah! May years I have waited for a gift like yours to appear. But no really, I have waited quite sometime for another video of your amazing voice to be posted on youtube and hear you are! I am completely blown away by you and really think you should stop being so rare to youtube. We want to see you so show up and show out!

[renethel]

OMG, that was SICK!!!!! Five stars isn't enough to rate this performance! If I was there, I would have applauded my hands off!

I was in a production of Ragtime and I can totally see you as Sarah!

Have a great time at UArts. I know two people that graduated from there and they're extremely talented, so you're definitely going to the right place! lol!

God bless!

:D

[dachampishea]
