    I am so glad I watched this! Interview was good but he reminded me that I had to do something my aunt told me to do the other day. He said he stood on his Bible 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. And said the same exact thing my aunt told me to say! I just paused the interview, went and got my Bible, went to my prayer room and stood on my opened bible. Proverbs 10:22 The blessings of the Lord makes me rich and adds no sorrow with it! I’ll forever stand on that word! Thank you Mr. Howard for the reminder 🙌🏾✝️😊

      @@gigiones3671 You're still missing the point (purposely?). I could name a list of so-so, sub-par singers and Hewett still couldn't out sing any one of them. How did he make your "Greatest of all time" list?? I'll let you off the hook though. A lot of us tend to over embellish when we speak of entertainers we admire for whatever reason.

      @@MasterZhao Agreed for the most part but to keep it 100, Prince, while inarguably is one of, if not THE greatest pop composert/entertainer the world has ever seen, is not known as an Elite vocalist. I mean sure, he would leave Hewett in the dust and could definitely carry a tune and had a mesmerizing falsetto and tenor which he oh so tastefully used to lace his absoluely GENUIS compositions...but he was not a particularly outstanding vocalist either. At least not when compared to the aforementioned singers.

    • @MasterZhao
      @MasterZhao Рік тому

      I would have to agree with @paulpaid, Although he's not terrible, going "greatest of all time" might be a stretch. He did a gig recently and he definitely has lost something, but even in his prime there were a few quite a bit above him. Again, not terrible, but not GOAT either. Prince would be in that category for me.

    I enjoyed the interview . I had no idea that his mother was a Gospel Music promoter and knew the legends of Gospel Music. I am glad that he mentioned the difference between Inspirational and Gospel Music. Most people don’t know that. I went to a church where the Pastor put down R&B and Jazz artists not knowing that those artists are also Christians. The same attitude from Gino Jennings. Mr. Hewett had given great life advice as well. Thanks and God Bless.

      It will never happen because they keep lying about her. Then on top of that, they can’t perform as Shalamar because they don’t own the name. Dick Griffey (who created the group) owns the name and it has to include his daughter (Carolyn) in the lineup. She has Howard and Jeffrey on a slave leash

    This is one interview I did not want to view and olny for the reason of the mini interview that came out of this one - with Jody Watley's quote. But tonight was the time and I was not disappointed. I have been a fan of HH ever since I heard "Amen". I heard it every time at the same time (just before the noon time signal) on a local Jamaica FM station (around the late 1990s). I can only describe it as a comforting hand placed on your heart. But I did not know the song's origin until now. HH is truly inspiring singing and equally as charming. Amen 🎶

    He’s too old/grown to be delusional or in denial about what went down with Jody. My guess is he knows exactly why she has the attitude she has towards him and/or the group and his role in it whether it’s big or small. My opinion is he needs to call her direct (grown man.....gentleman moves) to check in, discuss, release the bullshit, grant blessings and keep it moving. At that point, whatever will be......will be. The fact that he’s never called or discussed it with her one on one, but asked someone else to ask her......says a lot. Not in a good way. The fact that he talks about what she should do and what her attitude should be shows he’s missing the point which is probably why she’s hesitant to deal with him/them. Just my opinion.

      And he took million dollar advances from Shalamar executives that Jody never received to this very day.

      2013, 2015, and recently in 2019.
      But he still wants to say that there’s beef.
      She said that she forgave him and
      Jeffrey in a lengthy and detailed blog she wrote back in 2016.
      Also,
      he and Jeffrey needs to tell the truth
      that they signed an agreement that they can only perform with
      Carolyn Griffey.

    Jody mentioned several details in many interviews on why she felt the way she did with Shalamar. Howard's ego and Jeffree's controlling behavior led to the strife. I wish Howard was asked about marrying actress Nia Peebles (from the tv show Fame) and being the mother of his kid. Howard sang background on Janet's "Come Give Your Love To Me" and duetted with La Toya on "Heart Dont Lie", no mention of working with them? I wish he was asked his thoughts on the Jackson sisters. Howard spoke of Prince wearing heels, but Howard wore high heels on a segment with Donnie Simpson on Video Soul and Donnie clowned him for it. Howard mentioned music exec, Bob Krasnow a lot, he worked with Ike and Tina FYI.

    For most people, Shalamar is Jody Watley, Jeffrey Daniels and Howard Hewett. In that order. That Hewet thought he was the front singer and «the rest» was just back-up, shows he had an ego too big for his talent...

      I agree, I just saw him in a recent video asking for Jody’s forgiveness and that he’s sorry. I find it odd he has shades on I can’t see his eyes. I feel something more happened.

    I’m not taking away from your talent but refusing to apologize to someone that you disparaged shows a lack of personal growth. Peace and blessings to you but Ms Watley’s reasons for not dealing with you is just and commendable… and becoming successful after you cursed her career is stuff legends are made of.

      @@KHEPREIGH Like this year? I'll just say that live performance in 1983 where Jody does her solo and Howard can't take it, SHOWS how messed up that was that an outsider comes in and takes over. Everyone should have sung and Jeffrey should have had more singing parts. PERIOD. Oh well. And if they performed live with LL Cool J and Babyface, why didn't that get discussed? I think they're all taking advantage, b/c at the end of the day that topic gets thousands of views and gives them more minutes of fame to talk. I'm not mad at that!
