their batch was the hardest to judge in my opinion, having her, latoya, fantasia, diana, jasmine, george and the others. they all give different flavors.
@@achosenvessel6563 / Everyone is entitled to their own opinion....and on that note,I say....she is That Good!!!!!!! God has blessed her with an Amazing Gift,she has such a Beautiful,Powerful, Soulful ....Voice!!💫💫
No singer in my opinion can understand this pain and passion like Jennifer Hudson. She always sings from her soul but this hits differently because she understands it all too well...... AMAZING PERFORMANCE
J Hudson knows too well.grief by her murderous in law killing her mother, brother, sister and nephew . God rest them . Poor Vanessa, losing a child and husband at same time , and to push on. You are strong
@@KingChocoo She draws attention in anything she does. Even in her divorce she lied up. She lost. She wasn't awarded custody. She tries to get attention in EVERYTHING!! If a good singer is singing she takes away and tries to out do them. It is called the VOICE. NOT JHUD'S VOICE!!
Oh my Goodness so yeah she was singing to God and her brother heard her along with Kobe and his daughter who are now watching over their family bec they are in the Kingdom of Heaven with the Lord.
She snatched my soul and transported it to the heavens above. She’s singing from a place of having experience that kind of grief. Rest in Peace Gigi, Kobe, the Altobellos, Coach Mauser, Payton and her mom Susan and Ara, the pilot. Jen’s mom, brother and nephew, continue to Sleep in peace❤️🙏🏾God is still Sovereign.
She sang this on her murdered brothers birthday. I saw it on her IG. She sang the hell out of that song and much respect to her for singing it the way on what is probably a hard day for her.
I want to know why over 300 people didn't like this performance. She didn't overdo it. She sang from a place of sadness. She knows what its like to lose family so tragically and so suddenly. Until this performance I had never heard this song, but she did it justice. She sang from her heart. Had me crying and I wasnt even a Kobe fan. Great job Jennifer
I'm so proud of Jennifer Hudson to put the right amount of emotion she singing from deep within JHUD is the voice of this time. I feel this, captivating, powerful, elegant, so beautiful
Not the time or place to debate the God given talents of Jennifer and Fantasia. Please focus on the words of the song and her eloquent delivery, and look at the beautiful captured moments of Kobe and Gigi. I imagine that even by man’s standards the worst singer on earth is singing and pouring their heart to the Almighty God that it is indeed sweet music to his ears and he hears it as perfect pitch and harmony.
@AJ Amen!!!!! Whenever he does anything he has his reasons behind it all. My mother had a saying “even in your wellest hour you’re sick enough to die”. Never ask him why just hold on to his hand he is the best friend that you can have...I love each and everyone one of you and remember we may never understand, but ask God to mend your broken heart and he will do just that have faith in him like he has faith in you..God bless take care check on a neighbor apologize and mean it love one another. Be grateful. Stay prayed up. Visit the elderly. Stay humble. Do your part here on earth that God wants us to do...because death walks around our bed every night. It’s up to the man above to blow breath in your body every morning🙌🙏😇
your comment doesn’t make any logical sense... if your god is “loving” why would he or she plan to have people killed if that was their plans? Like how does that make sense, sounds like god has some serious psychological issues
It's pretty clear people simply don't know what real singing and talent is anymore. No clue! Saddest part is they think they do. This woman is one of the BEST!
She done Donny Hathaway justice "for all we know." Such a beautiful song that's befitting for Kobe and all of those affected by this tragedy, sung by someone whose experienced pain.
No one can embody this song like she can. She did Donny Hathaway justice. You can hear the anointing all in her voice. As she’s healing others, she’s healing herself. Grievance comes in waves. I love you Jennifer. Sending my condolences to her, and all families affected by tragedy. 💔💜💛
They say it was her brother's birthday & she had been crying just before she walked on stage because someone had brought a cake & Jennifer, her sister & family members were singing Happy Birthday to him backstage.
Cuz them always compare her with beyonce and everyone always say she shouldn’t ever fame if not dream gurlz jenifer holiday all that shit .. im confiuse ergh
How awesome is Jennifer Hudson just totally awesome I didn't watch it for like 50 times already and still have the same feeling and the emotions that she came out and did such a wonderful job and felt everything that she did I agree with most of the viewers and I truly truly want to say I thank her and I pray for her every day for better day
There's something about that last "amen" that tells me she wasn't suppose to say it, but did it because she felt as if she needed reassurance on the prayer. Its almost as if like "I didn't get my point across, lemme make sure I sealed that prayer and sent it to Kobe and Gigi." Overall it was the perfect and we all know it. Thank you Jennifer.
@@BJ-tj7pn I'm not saying she can't sing , she can sing , it was just a little too much, and i did not feel touched by it and I get emotional real easily . Kobe and Gia rest in peace.
Some deaths are really hard to get over...this was how I felt when my mom fell dead before me while we were eating Easter dinner my sister died 11 mths after her...2 yr long battle with breast cancer...Thank you mama for teaching me how to pray
*Why give Kobe a tribute at all since he was a rich man (loaded) who was worth $600 million dollars* ??? Are you serious? He stuck a ball through a metal hoop and made $600 million from selling $200-$1000 pairs of sneakers from most people who don't even have health insurance. While 1.1 billion of the world has inadequate footwear, over 30 million children die a year in the world due to no shoes at all...yet Kobe is admired by millions. Are you nuts.. The fool was even a Catholic...and thousands of children have been raped by priest due to people like Kobe funding that madness. Wake up. Kobe served Satan and money and fame and rings...not God.
@@godrulesme8619 if this is your attitude and the best thing you can think of to say about a man that tragically lost his life along side his young daughter and 7 other people, than God doesn't rule you, satan does! You speak like a jealous and envious fool! Your soul is lost and if the best you can do is speak ill of the dead, then it would serve you better to just shut the hell up!!🤐
@@godrulesme8619 You have so much hate in you. You need to change your handle to Satan Rules Me. Kobe was not the cause of all of the world's ills. And what exactly have you done for your fellow man? You are a hater. Pretty sure no one wants to see your rants. People like you are what makes this world so very sad.
@@janeknight6526 Weak reply....Kobe let millions of people die since he would not use his money to even feed them you fool. Kobe did a ton more dark stuff, but that is one simple example. Do you really think God would hoard $600 million dollars and watch the money grow...while millions die and could be saved with that money? You are a fool and feel sorry for anyone who listens to your advice on God.
Ms. Hudson is truly anointed. It's not just the other worldly vocals, but it's also the depth of emotion and the way she manages to convey this to the listener. A true talent...and beautiful soul x
@Joseph Babica yes it was , I didn't feel it, pure screaming, they could have gotten somebody better don't get me wrong Hudson can sing, but this performance I did not feel it, Rest in peace kobe and Gia
I listen to it about 20 times a month +. No lie. When someone is heavy on my heart or bad news pops up this song just does all the things for me. The prayer binds that thang in the end!
I'm crying. Rip to Kobe and Gianna and all the others in this tragedy. I remember Jennifer's loss of her mother, brother and nephew as well. Losing close ones is so so painful . It's my fear but I know it will happen inevitably.
Beautiful so Tearfully Beautiful. Kobe and Gianna were ‘like Father, like Daughter’.One in the same. So beautiful.God bless you Vanessa. God bless all living souls involved. God bless the souls that have left so suddenly to another STEP. I don’t know y’all but somehow I love y’all ( like father, like son. Like father, like daughter). It’s an old saying. ... for the ones who don’t know
Our Father which art in Heaven hollowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done......Amen... 🙌🏽❤️😭 Rest In Heaven to all the precious lives lost on that tragic day. Ms. Hudson, thank you for such a powerful, heart felt tribute
One of the most emotional and beautiful tributes I’ve seen.. the tears the emotion the heartbreak.. forever in my heart Kobe/Gigi 💜💛 edit: I cannot stop listening to this song, it perfectly captures everything my heart is going though. For everything Jennifer has been through, for her to do this, there’s just no words to describe how I feel. Jennifer, thank you so much for this. I cry every time I hear this. I hope she knows how much this meant to the world.
It’s been a year and still watching Jennifer Hudson crying 😢 now ... this lady has been through a lot and yet she manages to console others in their most hurtful time . God bless you Jenni Huds.
@@rowangraves7327 Hmm I didn't find Mr. Porter's rendition but I did find Nat King Cole's rendition, which sounds just like the rendition Donny sang. Thanks for that
Beautiful & heartfelt dedication. She did them justice and blessed us with the opportunity to feel the pain & loss that we truly have suffered in this world. Thanks J HUD. Rest in Power 24 & Gigi.
I’ve lost count on the amount of rewinds from this tribute. Gave God his Glory and not one person on here can say they didn’t shed a tear. Anointed young Sister right here.😔
We use to getting this in Chicago. Jennifer will telling you there are some vocalists that are greater in Chicago. They only sing for God. They do not want to be famous. After hearing singing in Chicago we really have to pull ourselves together Peace
Keep in mind she wasn’t the winner of idol . Sometimes what god has in store for you is bigger than what you expect
Wasn’t it down between her and Fantasia?
@@adb8003 No, actually. She placed seventh.
their batch was the hardest to judge in my opinion, having her, latoya, fantasia, diana, jasmine, george and the others. they all give different flavors.
Exactly
And she's an Oscar Winner
Her voice is definitely in the category of the Arethas, Patti, Gladys, Whitney & Chaka. Just amazing.
No its not.....she's good but not that good.
Well she was chosen to play Aretha so someone thought that she is that good
Aretha herself before she died chose her.

After Chakas performance tonight imma pass. Not sure what she was flying on that night but naw...
I would put Jennifer Hudson in the category of the legends and the greats. Right up there with Whitney Huston
Yep
No doubt about it ..you can't debate that...
She is amazing!
I agree I just think she needs that
‘I will always love you’ song to put her up there !
she is already there.....I almost cried watching this
She knows the pain of losing multiple family members at once.
Right
It very much gave that 💯
Actually that day was her brother birthday as well so she truly connected to the pain of loss.

If there's anyone Vanessa could talk with, about her tragic loss, it would be Jennifer Hudson. Jennifer lost her whole family at one time!

You're So Right..She most certainly did.🙏🏼
YESSSSSS YOU NAILED IT!!🙋🙌🙌
Brittany Bell you are correct BB Queen!!
Very true she could talk to

She doesn't get half the accolades she deserves, she just doesn't sing, she has a gift. God bless you sister
She manages to sound powerful, emotional and controlled without NO oversinging at all. A true vocalist.
For once. She is extra EVERY TIME. GLAD she knew deaths were a cut off to not to try be center of attention.
Programmed to perfection.
A gift from the most high ♥️

She sang this as if she was singing directly to her mother and family who was murdered.
So heartfelt

No, cussing words , no , depiction of drugs , guns. Absolute talent! 💯
@@jefffrei4671 frr
You can hear the band tho. The piano, the violin etc
She went through something horrible and knows the pain and the loss .
She sang her heart out and held it in her palm.
To say that I ‘hear’ how incredible this is, isn’t accurate. I ‘feel’ how incredible this is. The most touching tribute.
I agree. 💙❤️🖤🤍
Well said brother. 💜🙏🏾
So so true ❤
She has always put herself in her performances, but this is BY FAR the best.
That performance sang to your soul, chills all through your body
Amen. Amen,++
Its separates her from the rest...interpretation
Absolutely. Donny Hathaway is proud of the way she sang his song
Because she went through that pain
Now that's a sangerrr!! I just remembered that she also lost several family members tragically. Touching performance!

The Start of the Lord's Prayer and the run of Amen just breaks me down EVERY time. Wow.
Me too
Absolutely
I listen to it with my eyes closed and it's so powerful.
I still cry every time.
When she started singing the Lords Prayer though, I felt that in my soul!
This song got so much power in it. When she got to "Our Father In Heaven", I just burst into tear immediately. So Powerful!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone was breaking down at that point
No one can embody this song like she can. She did Donny Hathaway justice. You can hear the anointing all in her voice. As she’s healing others, she’s healing herself. Grievance comes in waves. I love you Jennifer. Sending my condolences to her, and all families affected by tragedy. 💔💜💛

I'm crying. Rip to Kobe and Gianna and all the others in this tragedy. I remember Jennifer's loss of her mother, brother and nephew as well. Losing close ones is so so painful . It's my fear but I know it will happen inevitably.
@@sandrao6837 I have the same fears
Sandra O hopefully there’s a place where we go where we can see and be with our loved ones after our time on earth ❤️
@kevin w thanks for sharing this.❤️
Her voice went to heaven while we stayed on earth. So felt the anguish and release in her beautiful voice. Thank you Jennifer Hudson.
She snapped! Extremely underrated......most slept on, powerful voice there is in this era & beyond
Right extremely slept smh
Her singing is so effortless
Still can't believe he's gone with his GiGi! Thank you, Jennifer, for honoring them in such a special way! They were too young to leave us.
I do not understand why people dislike this, this is not a normal performance, this is a Lot more !!!
Amazing voice , this is a gift
Beautiful so Tearfully Beautiful. Kobe and Gianna were ‘like Father, like Daughter’.One in the same. So beautiful.God bless you Vanessa. God bless all living souls involved. God bless the souls that have left so suddenly to another STEP. I don’t know y’all but somehow I love y’all ( like father, like son. Like father, like daughter). It’s an old saying. ... for the ones who don’t know

I expect nothing less from Jennifer Hudson. She always puts her heart into singing. Hopefully she sings at the memorial for this great man.
One of the most emotional and beautiful tributes I’ve seen.. the tears the emotion the heartbreak.. forever in my heart Kobe/Gigi 💜💛
edit: I cannot stop listening to this song, it perfectly captures everything my heart is going though. For everything Jennifer has been through, for her to do this, there’s just no words to describe how I feel. Jennifer, thank you so much for this. I cry every time I hear this. I hope she knows how much this meant to the world.
She’s absolutely unbelievable singer,absolutely brilliant performance,so emotional ❤
Bro so good it made me think is this pre recorded? Im sure its not but thats just how flawless it was.
JHUD is a True Vocal Queen!!! She deserves to be more known so much!!!
Jennifer can blow a roof off any arena with those vocals she is Blessed😪💯
She gives the best memorial tributes ever....🥺
She looks so beautiful and she did such an amazing job
Her voice alone brought me to tears. So much soul and pain. She delivers every single time. Love you Kobe & GiGi 💜💛
It’s been a year and still watching Jennifer Hudson crying 😢 now ... this lady has been through a lot and yet she manages to console others in their most hurtful time .
God bless you Jenni Huds.
Omg 😪😪😪😪. She's sanging the h--l out of this Donny Hathaway song..such a beautiful song and tribute
Actually, it's a Cole Porter tune
@@rowangraves7327 Hmm I didn't find Mr. Porter's rendition but I did find Nat King Cole's rendition, which sounds just like the rendition Donny sang. Thanks for that
Beautiful & heartfelt dedication. She did them justice and blessed us with the opportunity to feel the pain & loss that we truly have suffered in this world. Thanks J HUD. Rest in Power 24 & Gigi.
@Lovely_Day shut ya stupid ass up
Give pple their flowers while they can still smell them😩❤, this woman is a Legend guys, dare I say she is the Whitney Houston of this generation ❤❤🥺
She is!
I’ve lost count on the amount of rewinds from this tribute. Gave God his Glory and not one person on here can say they didn’t shed a tear. Anointed young Sister right here.😔
Wow, the best sports opening ever. Kudos Jennifer Hudson, wow.
Lovely_Day well let’s take it deeper some blacks don’t like dark skinned blacks, so what’s the difference.
Grl shut up. Why repeat the same comment... You mad ?
I have no words for how Jennifer moves me. It's not over signing EVER with her. Absolutely Earth shaking.
Jennifer Hudson is one of the greatest, and so professional, there is no one better to sing a tribute.
WOW. Talk about nailing a performance, she put everything into that. RIP to all on that flight. Kobe, you're a legend mate.
@Justin Johnson enjoy the temporary rush?
@@coughpillbox748 😂🤣😂🤣
Her voice is so beautiful and she has the most powerful voice the industry has ever seen.
We use to getting this in Chicago. Jennifer will telling you there are some vocalists that are greater in Chicago. They only sing for God. They do not want to be famous.
After hearing singing in Chicago we really have to pull ourselves together
Peace
Jennifer Hudson representing like always. She blew up it out the water. Best female singer, hands down. RIP KOBE ❤️❤️❤️❤️⚰️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Still in disbelief. ..😢😢😢😢Lord have mercy 😢😢😢😢
I know 😭🙏🙏🙏
This performance is gut wrenching. She's channeling the grief of everyone gathered to pay their respect and say their goodbyes ---Amen
One of my fave Donny Hathaway songs ever. Beautiful Jennifer. RIH Kobe and GiGi
She smoked this! RIP Kobe, Gigi, and the other lives lost in the crash 🥺
YASSSSSSSS 💜💛
If you didn’t feel something from that…you need to have your heart checked. That was incredible and so moving!
Who else is sitting by themselves, listening to this and crying while imagining scenarios 💔
this is me rn
