Jennifer Hudson's tribute to Prince will be one to remember for a long time especially that exit at the end. She should have been the last performer of that night.
@@jami_4you He combined Gospel and New Wave and made the listener think they were listening to straight-ahead pop music. Unmatched genius. They will be pulling his songs apart in university classrooms centuries from now.
That's why I Love Mr. Elton John!!!!!!!!!😂😢😢😅😅 That's what Real Artist 's do !!!!!!! So much respect!!!!!! I'm blessed to be able to have been a fan of his.... But this dedication has made me happy to ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ him even more 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Clearly Simon Cowell doesn't know talent because he said Jennifer was nothing more than a cruise ship singer and he didn't think she was very good. Jennifer with this performance and so many others she has done has proved him wrong.
Jennifer's music doesn't have much crossover appeal, but she is NOT underrated. She has 2 Grammys, an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA, a SAG award, and has sold millions of albums. She's a brilliant singer and has one of the greatest voices of our generation.
She’s not underrated but she doesn’t get near he credit she deserves with the instrument she has! She is a beast, a straight powerhouse. Always on point with tone, inflection, pitch, control, the works. She knows how to make the song her own🙌🏾
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO CAN SING; THERE ARE SOME WHO SAAAAAAAAANG. MOST PEOPLE CAN BE TAUGHT TO SING. BUT WHAT JENNIFER HAS IS TRULY A GIFT FROM A HIGHER POWER. ALL I CAN SAY IS, "WOW!"
Nope, she sure didn’t! She was getting ready to take us higher, to a whole new level but the musicians didn’t follow and ended it. Whew chile, she was going to really do some damage. She’s a straight beast with her instrument♥️🔥🔥
Jennifer Hudson baby girl thank God for your voice of tribute to Prince. You have a blessed heart and voice. Thank God for bringing you in are life. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I'm still here loving PRINCE the best artist I have ever seen perform live "All by his lonely" no opening act... but I must acknowledge JHud came out like a BOSS
JHUD, my GIRL!!!! You killed Purple Rain!! You have EVERYONE on their feet waving their hands including myself at home while watching you SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG! I soooooo love your voice! Your vocals go from low to high in a second!!! WOW!! I’m sure Prince LOVED hearing you sangin his fav song… #R.I.P.Prince-ahhh! #JHUDmy#1FAN❤️
Sheila E, plays guitar, is a bad ass on the drums, sings and dances! Damn girl you are ALL ROUND Talent! Let’s not forget JHud looking amazing in her hooded dress coat, her rendition of Purple Rain took us to Church! What a Voice! Years ago, I had the pleasure of seeing PRINCE & The Revolution in Concert in London UK🇬🇧 it was off the charts. He would have been sooo proud of his personal Tribute today🙏🏽❤️
I was in tears looking at Jhud and Shelia E performances 😢 then I scrolled down and saw your comment I’m in tears crying laughing now 😂😂😂 you ain’t even gonna give credit to anybody who even try to cover it!! I’m thru Hilarious
Today is the Purple Kings BIRTHDAY may he rest in peace. His timelines music lives on. Its 2022 and Jennifer still gives me goose bumps. She sannnng!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
i grew up with prince and he formed me in to what i am today. The fantasy and the promise of a bright future, if you commit i grew out of, but he inspired me in to a new view of other people. + his music, witch allways been the most imortant part of my life, made me so happy. ive been a constant participant of festivals since 89. still commited to music, and what it does to people. Its beatuiful
Everybody talkin about Jennifer Hudson BUT to me, Beverly Knight is closest to Prince in this video, more truly, more natural, more fun. Sheila of course is Princes Girl Life. The Thing is that Princes is hte most unique and Quality artist I ever eard.
Prince's death hurt me more than anyone!!!! He was such a giving person in private and people dont know that! Others bothered me but his killed my soul!
Why is it so damn hard to find these performances at a decent quality?! I remember watching them after the event, now they have disappeared... In any event thanks for putting them together, I'm crying over JHud's performance and seeing Stevie so sad by his keyboards.
Man, as a musician, it’s hardly anything worse than you wanting to take the song to another level and the musicians don’t follow you. JHud was getting ready to take us to another level before they ended the music. Let me tell you, she was not ready, they cut my girl short. She still killed it, but, trust me, she was going to take us higher🙌🏾Love ha♥️
Of course J Hud was great, but Beverly Knight brought the FUNK, Prince flew her in from UK to entertain his guests at an Oscar party in LA, he knew talent!. Loved the sincerity of Eltons grief and Shiela E throwing down and driving those musicians one last time for P, bereavement therapy.
THIS VERSION I haven't heard this properly. She can sing this in a way which is just on another level. I always love Nicole Scherzinger cos I am so loyal and her music I always connect with as I did the song Spotlight by J hud both that and nicoles songs got me through hard times but I have to love this too as a winner because when she did titanic on the voice I just nearly died. Isn't she just .......I have no words.
Don’t lie, you’re here for the jhud purple rain cover.
Exactly
😆😆 True
Yes ma'am 💜
My God YESSSS 🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤
Cuz Effie will bring the house down EVERY TIME. She should just do all tributes because baby. When she did the tribute to Kobe she had me in TEARS
2024 and this performance still slaps 💜💜💜
Jennifer Hudson's voice is so penetrating to soul. That high note sent tears from my eyes.
👑💎👑👁
Best in the world
Chills and tears
Her and Kelly C are THE original idols! ❤❤
Jennifer Hudson's tribute to Prince will be one to remember for a long time especially that exit at the end. She should have been the last performer of that night.
I said the same thing
Who is here in 2021 anyone? Btw jhud's performance is so insaneeee she's literally so dang good
I am.🤫😉😂💗
💃🏾💃🏾
Me
💕💕💕
Not sure how she just made Purple Rain into a gospel song! Go JH simply the best
I’m telling you! Went straight to church! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
@Tracy Brown..I thought I was the only one who felt that too
She could make Mary had a little lamb a gospel song.
Prince used gospel chords
@@jami_4you He combined Gospel and New Wave and made the listener think they were listening to straight-ahead pop music. Unmatched genius. They will be pulling his songs apart in university classrooms centuries from now.
I truly feel like Prince would've loved Jennifer's rendition of Purple Rain. That was amazing.
Prince loved “REAL SANGERS”, lyricists. He loved artists that made him feel emotion & gave him goosebumps w/ every note they sang.
💜
💜
J Hud Took The Purple Rain To Church‼
Haha. She sure did
Yes she i almost went in
Janelle Monáe = should watch Stacy Francis too.
She was going to take us even higher but the musicians cut the song🤦🏾♀️She killed it but she was taking it to another level 🙌🏾
Jennifer!!!!!!!! Killed it!!! A beast with the vocals!!!! I didn’t watch any other performances

Prince was one of a kind! Music all through his body! In his own lane! Music genius.!
Prince ain't dead...he just ascended.☝️☝️☝️
She tore that song up💜💜💜
J Hud is CRAZY good. She is so underrated and she never got the spotlight she really deserves.
Jennifer's music doesn't have much crossover appeal, but she is NOT underrated. She has 2 Grammys, an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA, a SAG award, and has sold millions of albums. She's a brilliant singer and has one of the greatest voices of our generation.
She isn't underrated. She just doesn't have her business out in the streets like most performers. She offers only talent, no gimmicks.
@ A O she not underrated.. she has an Oscar award.
She’s not underrated but she doesn’t get near he credit she deserves with the instrument she has! She is a beast, a straight powerhouse. Always on point with tone, inflection, pitch, control, the works. She knows how to make the song her own🙌🏾
She sold her soul
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO CAN SING; THERE ARE SOME WHO SAAAAAAAAANG. MOST PEOPLE CAN BE TAUGHT TO SING. BUT WHAT JENNIFER HAS IS TRULY A GIFT FROM A HIGHER POWER. ALL I CAN SAY IS, "WOW!"
Best living vocalist in my view. She's in the company of the greatest.
I can watch jhud part over and over again
she took it straight to church and knocked it out of the park
She didn’t wanna stop singing. She did that ❤️🔥
Nope, she sure didn’t! She was getting ready to take us higher, to a whole new level but the musicians didn’t follow and ended it. Whew chile, she was going to really do some damage. She’s a straight beast with her instrument♥️🔥🔥
@gwennydaniels2165 she had a time limit but they should of let her go on last
Jennifer Hudson had everyone in a full worship..
There's nothing left in that song 'Purple Rain' to sing, JHud sang it all. 😅😅😅😂❤❤❤❤
I'm here for it in 2023...sing it JHud💜
J HUD will murder someone with that voice one of these days, she already done killed the song.
It's 2021 and this is the best and most powerful tribute ever... such a beautiful voice that makes you tear up listening to her
👑💜👑👁
Jennifer Hudson AMAZING VOCAL TALENT! Beautiful inside and out!

Not i.
Phakathim inside. Here from Mzansi (South Africa)
JENNIFEERRRRRRRRRRR💜💜
Sheila E gave one of the best tribute performances of all time.She is a beast in the drums. 🔥🔥🔥 Watched over and over just to see her performance.
I loved this she had every one on the same vibe at the same time
Jennifer giving me chills yesssss im here for her all day
I’m back in 2022 to watch Jennifer’s performance again, it got stuck in my head🎉🔥
I'm still here also..😜👌👁💜
@@princebootlegchannel I'm here!! Can't give up her tribute to Prince and Al Green's Simply Beautiful. It's 2022
May be hands down the best tribute I've ever heard to this day.
💜👏💜
JHUD, my GIRL!!!! You killed Purple Rain!! You have EVERYONE on their feet waving their hands including myself at home while watching you SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG! I soooooo love your voice! Your vocals go from low to high in a second!!! WOW!! I’m sure Prince LOVED hearing you sangin his fav song…

Girlfriend check out Lolita on Prince's 3121 album...😜💜🙏👁🐘🌻
What a HELL of a performance from JENNIFER HUDSON & SHEILA E. Prince would b SOOOO PROUD.:-):-):-)
2023 and I'm here to watch JHuds tribute to Prince, cant sleep on Shelia E and Maxwell though. 💜💜💜
Sheila E, plays guitar, is a bad ass on the drums, sings and dances! Damn girl you are ALL ROUND Talent!

Went on Paisley Park tour last week and Prince was/ is one the greatest ever. Will never stop loving him and his gift💞💞💞💞💞
My future dream to visit PP. Will do so when Covid takes a hint to disappear.👌👑💜👑
J Hud and Fantastic duo we need it🙏🏽
Everyone else should be extra embarrassed fir trying to do purple rain cover. J HUD schooled those who’ve tried and those who are yet to try.
I was in tears looking at Jhud and Shelia E performances 😢 then I scrolled down and saw your comment I’m in tears crying laughing now 😂😂😂 you ain’t even gonna give credit to anybody who even try to cover it!! I’m thru Hilarious
Jennifer Hudson is a special talent... unbelievable
J shocked me she can sang but it aint easy to sang a Prince song. She handled that!
Beverley Knight singing Alphabet St is a blessing I did not know I needed!
I wonder if she knows what that song is about 😂
Today is the Purple Kings BIRTHDAY may he rest in peace. His timelines music lives on. Its 2022 and Jennifer still gives me goose bumps. She sannnng!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
🕊👑👁💎🦋🐘🌻
I’m not a huge fan of Jennifer but she definitely killed this performance, he would have been proud 🥲
i grew up with prince and he formed me in to what i am today. The fantasy and the promise of a bright future, if you commit i grew out of, but he inspired me in to a new view of other people. + his music, witch allways been the most imortant part of my life, made me so happy. ive been a constant participant of festivals since 89. still commited to music, and what it does to people. Its beatuiful
Beverley Knight is a fan like the rest of us.
Everybody talkin about Jennifer Hudson BUT to me, Beverly Knight is closest to Prince in this video, more truly, more natural, more fun. Sheila of course is Princes Girl Life. The Thing is that Princes is hte most unique and Quality artist I ever eard.
@@decrasdj3408 I agree and to be honest, I like JHud but imo her rendition of Purple Rain was too over the top🤷♀️
2022 still watch JHUD's tribute❤️🔥she did that ✨👌
She sure did.👁💜💜
JHud, I need an official studio cover of this, pronto.
I HAVE NEVER,EVER, EVER SEEN THIS PERFORMANCE!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!!!❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jennifer is on 🔥
2021 and Jennifer Hudson Did THAT!!! Chills
👑💜👑
Damn she took us to church with this song.
This song though..😶😥..Im here year in and out. Prince/JHud Purple Rain ❤ forever 👑
Omg tears that song was truly religious thank you Jen he is still so missed
Prince's death hurt me more than anyone!!!! He was such a giving person in private and people dont know that! Others bothered me but his killed my soul!
It's 2022 and I still come and watch JHud sing her throat out on this tribute...I cried like my uncle died 💖
How you catch the spirit singing purple rain?..... I randomly just pull it up just to hear her
Why is it so damn hard to find these performances at a decent quality?! I remember watching them after the event, now they have disappeared...
In any event thanks for putting them together, I'm crying over JHud's performance and seeing Stevie so sad by his keyboards.
I thought the quality on this channel was assured...😉🙏💜
It's 2024 July and I'm still here for Jennifer's rendition of purple rain 🌂
Jennifer never disappoints if you know what she did with I'll always love you by Whitney Houston. 🙋🏾♀️
Started missing Prince again
Prince would love this rendition. He appreciated the raw talent of taking a song and making it your own. 💜💜💜 beautiful tribute
Lord have mercy J Hudson🙏🏾👏🏾😩
She took em straight to the pulpit ❤️
Love Shiela E. Elton made a beautiful speech.
I remember watching this and thinking I didn't realize Jennifer Hudson was a Star Star
It's only since I posted this that i realise the same.👌🙏💜
Jennifer Hudson gave me goosebumps 👏👏👏👏
Everytime I watch that gives me goosebumps ...JHud brought down the house ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Man, as a musician, it’s hardly anything worse than you wanting to take the song to another level and the musicians don’t follow you. JHud was getting ready to take us to another level before they ended the music. Let me tell you, she was not ready, they cut my girl short.

Jen Hudson, you knocked that out of the park girl. Damn but you can sing girl.
Yep! She knocked Purple Rain right out of Paisley Park😢
Love Sheila E

Of course J Hud was great, but Beverly Knight brought the FUNK, Prince flew her in from UK to entertain his guests at an Oscar party in LA, he knew talent!. Loved the sincerity of Eltons grief and Shiela E throwing down and driving those musicians one last time for P, bereavement therapy.
