Hello Vlog People!

Sam visits with good friend, `Nita Whitaker, who he says has a "voice from God." She won Star Search, she sings with Andrea Bocelli, she sang with Sam on the backgrounds for WAR ON WAR, and happens to be married to another very interesting person.

We get to meet Simba, who's father, Mufasa recently went to the great ocean in the sky, we also catch a glimpse of Michael Jackson, Puff Daddy (or P. Diddy depending on his attitude), and then the great Don LaFontaine! They also talk about people in their lives like Oprah Winfrey, Andrea Bocelli and Stevie Wonder.

The friends relive great memories of how they met on a stage show Sam wrote called "Hard Copy".

At the close of the video, Nita sings YOU ARE MY FRIEND from her "LifeStories" CD.

Groomed in gospel, trained in opera, honed in pop, Nita's voice is a remarkable instrument that's difficult to define. But when you hear her power chops and sweet high tones, you know you are in the presence of greatness. Pulling all these elements together, Nita has found a beautiful blend of music that soothes the soul on this her latest CD LifeStories showcasing her songwriting and producing abilities as well.

A former Miss Louisiana, Nita took her southern roots, charm and show-stopping talent to Los Angeles were her incredible voice carried her to Female Grand Champion on "Star Search", after winning an unprecedented thirteen times.

With a vibrant and dynamic stage presence that is unequaled, Nita is comfortable singing in any setting, from an intimate club to the arena stages. In 2005, she was the guest performer at The Freedom Awards honoring Oprah Winfrey, Rubie Dee and Paul Rusesabagnia. She sang duets with Andrea Bocelli during his 2006-2007 city Winter Tour.

Nita often travels with Multi-Grammy winner David Foster as his featured artist (and one of his favorite singers) and her performances invariably end in standing ovations. She has performed and shared the stage with countless celebrities including Faith Hill, Celine Dion, Richard Marx, Josh Groban, Stevie Wonder and Yolanda Adams. Nita's current CD follows two other independent projects titled "Nita Whitaker" and "One Voice".

I meant showed as in letting him hear the audio. Obviously he would not see it.

[TheBlackpearlqueen]

and I'm so happy to see that for you. Now on top of happenstance with you...You have this most beautiful african queen next beside you who came to my college to perform song off her album in 1993 or '94 I think and aloud me to see a liitle backup behind. Then was so gracious enough to speak with me afterwards and she signed a copy of her cd to me which I still play today. Please let her know that I said Thank you again. The world of music needs you both in the for front. Love you both. Thanks!

[TheBlackpearlqueen]

OMG!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! You two know each other. Two people from my wonderful past that I just loved and admired so much are here on my screen. Sam besides having a true destiny to sing, you were the why I wanted to go onto Star Search. When I finally got the chance my mom said I couldn't go because I wasn't getting on a plane. I was so crushed because I couldn't sing but more so because I wasn't going to get the change to run into you. It looks like you are happy and doing very well.

[wtgreeriii]

Thank you Sam for this interview. I met Anita two days ago in Hawaii with her daughters and sang with her. I agree with you about her voice. She was amazing to sing with. When you see her again please tell her WT Greer from Hawaii says hello.

I still love your voice as well. Would love to meet you someday!!

[ronbrown2005]
