      @@TheBakko343 mmmmm…. I love jhud but Her opera is horrible! She mispronounced so many words - no excuse- if u r gonna sing it; sing it correctly or don’t sing it! She breathes in between a word - which is a big No No! You must finish the phrase and cannot breath in the middle of a WORD! She ran out of breath at the last climax of “pinchero” which was supposed to be the climax! She rushed the song and the emotions didn’t match what the song was about -- honestly , it was an epic fail! She should have taken vocal coaching and perfected it before attempting it. Some things, you cannot just wing! It’s like asking Julie Andrews to sing Rock - it doesn’t work! And this did not work!

      @@michaelgray3944 Jennifer is exploring her instrument and is a work in progress. I think the reason she chose to perform this publicly was to show that she is still growing as a artist and is capable of doing more than R&B or gospel (the boxes BW in the music industry are put in). Normani had to fight with her label (with help from Ariana Grande) just so she could put out "Motivation" a couple of years ago. They didn't think a black girl could sell a pop record. She proved them wrong.

      I have stated that for years! She has to get that one or two producers at the max. Get to the essence of her voice. Not just the high notes, but the low registers that she does just as well. Be very selective of each song and handle with care. Example like what Producer Arif Mardin did for Chaka Khan when she went solo. The interesting thing I’m not her biggest fan, but you can feel talent! It’s coming, Fred Nelson is her musical director now and was Aretha’s a few years before she passed. Whom I had the tremendous opportunity to work with! Here’s to Jennifer!!🍾💐🙏🏾❤️

    It's interesting to hear a pop singer tackling this opera number most famously performed by Pavarotti. Her voice is very different from a typical opera singer and she seemed to strain at a few parts to be right on the notes, but the finish was fantastic. She is just so talented that she can do almost anything with her voice.

      Mmmmm…. Sorry but this was an Epic fail at opera! I love jhud, but it’s important to be fair and call a spade a spade! She mispronounced many words, took breaths at the wrong time in the middle of a word- which is a big No No…. She ran out of breath on her last “pinchero” climax- which is the most important part of this song!…. She rushed the song and it’s obvious why- because she knew this is not her genre and she knew it was all wrong. Her styling didn’t match the words she was singing….. she needs to know what it’s about to convey the emotion and hers was all wrong! Sorry, for those familiar with the song; we applaud her effort but truly and honestly - No Shade - it was just horrible! It was like watching a Ballerina try Hip Hop…. Somethings just don’t work. You may be good in one genre, but it does not necessarily mean it works in another. I am confident that if she took vocal coaching in this genre; she could do it…. But this was clumsy and She was not prepared to take this on. It’s called learning your craft - and she has not learned this craft of singing opera yet. No different than Diana Ross trying to sing Acid Rock…..she would need training in how to move, how to enunciate words, how to get gritty and raspy with your voice, etc. This was just bad. Sorry jhud - no shade!

      Don’t be in awe of this …. It was an epic fail …. Her Italian enunciation is wrong…. She breathes in the middle of a word… not finishing the sentence- which is a no no! For those who know this song - she sounded like Aretha doing it - a screeching cat that’s being murdered!….. I love jhud… but the truth is the truth - she should not sing opera without proper coaching. No different than a proms ballerina should not try to break dance….. some things aren’t transferable… she needs to stay on her lane and belt Aretha songs and then she would have been fierce! But opera.???? No way Jose… she butchered this song!

    I do understand that people might have different opinions about a performance. But what I don’t like is that when it comes to opera, singers must sing it in a specific way, or they are targeted as they are the worst sinners. Opera is a genre, this song is an Aria, from an opera. It doesn’t mean that she is singing it in an operatic style. Matter of fact she isn’t! She’s singing with her belted, strong voice. If she wants to breathe in the middle of a word, or just attempt Italian without too much stress about it , then it’s fine. She’s a pop singer!
    Let her sing and live her alone

    Gorgeous performance of a pop singer singing a tenor aria... a great performance but this is far from opera... and she doesn’t sing it like she is singing opera, which I like.... she sings it like Jen... real opera singing is a different beast altogether and I’m glad she doesn’t go there coz she’d never pull it off without years of rigorous training.. she keeps it in her realm where she nails it.
