    I was in the audience this night... Rachelle sang for 2-1/2 hours (FREE admission) and Anita "Burner" was asked to come up near the end. It was a breath-taking experience and it did something to your soul if U were present! The recording cannot do the LIVE experience justice... IJS!

    I don't think Rachelle really cares too much about record sales, or selling out arenas, she's a true to heart singer, she said a while back, too many people get into your business, this and that. And she's down to earth. Sometimes artists just rather make music, sing at a nice place, chill out and go home. LOL>

      @@azeryahu9914 No she's definitely not a lyric soprano. Her vocal range alone extends beyond that vocal classification. Her range extends to the depths of any baritone to the heights of Minnie Riperton, Mariah Carey, Shanice and Chantay Moore, in whom, Chantay is the only singer who has the match vocal range of Mariah Carey's. Her lower register extends to the baritone range with power and control. Have you seen her performance at the Apollo Theatre called, "Showtime At The Apollo"? If she's anything in vocal classification at all, she a Soprano Assoluta.

    People don't realize that Anita Baker is really a mezzo soprano naturally who has a contralto tone to her voice. Deep tone but very high range

    • @KajiVocals
      @KajiVocals 3 роки тому +8

      Her voice isn't naturally nearly this dark. She darkens it intentionally. Her real timbre comes through as she goes higher as she doesn't darken it anymore. Natural dark soprano. At lowest a high mezzo. But most likely soprano.

They did! Notice how these women are just walking around singing...fully clothed as well vs half naked shaking and dancing. AINT NO GIMMICKS..their voice is the gimmick!

I saw her again this year when she came to the Motor City Sound Board. My husbands mouth stayed open the whole time because he was in awe of this great talent.She will be here in Sept. with Michael Franks and I plan on witnessing this again. If you ever need to feel good and get encompassed in the music Rachelle is the person to see
