Went to school with Stevie in high school and he once told me that he thought that I had the talent to be a backup singer. I took that as a shot to my singing ability 26 years ago. Little did I know that he was actually paying me a HUGE compliment. Crazy the things you learn 2 1/2 decades later.
That's a dope story❤
I never told anyone that I wanted to be a background vocalist because I thought people would think I was aiming low or something weird. Thank you R&B Podcast and thank you @steviemackey, I don’t feel weird for having had that as my dream job/career. I knew we were friends in my head for a reason.😊
Same here!
Do that shit!
Me too...I've always wanted to be a background/session singer!
Agreed! Always wanted to be a bgv and people look at me like I’m crazy lol
Background vocalist are great . There's alot that sing better than who they're doing background singing for.
Protect J Valentine at all costs 🤩
J valentine is a real musician he studies the craft and he knows the history of music. I respect his break down on R&B. Much respect💪
SPECIAL REQUEST: add a segment w/3 part harmony to each episode! ❤️🔥🙏🏾
THIS!
Girl yes a Behind the Scenes where they sing and harmonize together with all of the guest on their favorite songs together.
That could be a spin off podcast for themmmmm, yassss🔥🔥🔥
That would be so dope!!! Like how they do Bloopers at the end of a movie, but it wouldn't be funny
Sis this the one 🔥💯💯🙌🏾
The diversity of this podcast is unmatched 🙏🙏🙏💪🏾
Facts
Bruh the mickey mouse impression is TOP TIER 🤣🤣🔥🔥
The fact that Tank decided to study vocal greatness instead of getting into a shell when his aunty told him he was off is why he is the AUTHORITY, Him and Jay, The AUTHORITY in all things RNB!
Please don’t ignore Peabo Bryson and Glenn Jones. Tremendous vocalists
Peabo is a underrated legend.
OMGosh I went to UA-cam a couple of months ago and reunited with Mr Glen Jones vocals. Haven’t stopped listening yet 😊 Watched a live concert of Peabo. So AMAZING!!
@@carolinewashington3574 you know singing
@@ramiahm underrated and unsung
Babyyyy yes because Peabo plays ZERO games, he's the truth 🙌🏾
“If it was my last day on earth, I’d wanna be singing with my friends” I think a lot of us would agree. I get this
He forgot Lisa Fischer...she is the one and core background singer who was so courageous the give us one of the best love song of all time "How can I Ease the Pain". The falsetto and runs in that one song is forever everlasting
Man!
HELLO!!!!
Indeed! Lisa Fisher is 🔥 fire!
Straight factsssss!!!
MY GOD!!! LISA IS A POWERHOUSE
Love love love how Stevie touched on the importance and influence of Detroit
"Your gift will make room for you" is Stevie personified on all levels 💐💐💐💐
I love J. Valentine. He is so honest at all times!
WHOAH!! DARYL COLEY is a staple and a musical standard. He's the reason that I wanted to take vocal lessons and music theory. #2ndChronicles #WhenSundayComes.
Erykah Badu is a MUST for y'all show. Babyface, Kelly Rowland, Boy2Men, Monica, Ron Isley, Charlie FUCKING Wilson, Angie Stone, Stevie Wonder,Jennifer Hudson just to name a few
To me personally, this is the best podcast right now. The conversations are so natural and everyone is just so in sync, there's never an awkward moment. It's beautiful, shout out to everyone involved in this I hope you guys keep growing.
im begging for you guys to get #AveryWilson on here to share his amazing story & allow us the chance to further support his GOD BLESSED TALENTS
Let the Olympics interview Avery.
Stevie's voice is a major blessing he really needs to release a album he also has a wonderful spirit aswell
He has a Christmas album out
@@bosscerena91 I kno I was referring to a regular album
I don’t know him that well, but I think he may not want what comes with that much success. Because being around people who are at that level, he knows what it comes with and he knows it’s price.
Yeeessss
@@757doc5 ohhh let me mind my business 🏃🏿♀️🏃🏿♀️🤣
This was amazing and FINALLY somebody acknowledged Joe because he has ALWAYS been a beast
ABSOLUTELY! I LOVE Him!!
You Betta Preach! I'll collect the offering🥰💯
LISTEN: That was some of the greatest advice given. You can’t be humble without knowing how to LISTEN first. Love it! Great interview! Amazing insight! ♥️🔥
I agree with Mr Stevie Mackey, we LOOOVE knowing about the behind the scene, TRULY! It inspires everyone whether you want to make music or not, if you don't learn nothing from these stories, you learn about the grind and the PERSEVERANCE needed to accomplish anything. THANK YOU again, Tank and J Valentine!
True. If there are no behind the scenes players, there is no scene at all.
Chile not me sitting here waiting for 9am! This podcast got me in a chokehold and i already listened to the audio!!!!
I do the same
This is so me...I put this podcast on while cooking Saturday morning breakfast. I CANNOT WAIT... love, love, love this #R&BMoney ❤❤❤
Side note: we definitely Ryan Leslie! He was a huge influence back on the 2000s and so curious as to his music moves currently. But yall are killing it regardless 💗 tuned in every episode 🙌🥰
What an episode if they do it. I can see them vibing together good
Yall don’t miss!!! This interview was fire!! I honestly look forward to this podcast weekly. During certain periods of your life, there is sometimes an album that gets you through that time. This podcast is my soundtrack for nursing school. Thank you for this podcast!! 🔥❤️🩺
💯
He could definitely be Mickey Mouse. I love how Stevie and Jamie Foxx can imitate anyone and anything. That's a very special gift and lost talent not many have.
I would love to see Brandy!
I put in a prayer that Disney will reach out to him amazing!
I am thrilled that you interviewed Stevie. I am a huge fan of his Taco Tuesdays and always wondered about his backstory. His skill is an anointment and his perspective on music is fascinating. As a fan, it's wonderful to learn the science behind the art. This is what podcasts are made for. To be a fly-on-the-wall during experts' conversations. Keep it up! #rnbmoney
Exactly. This comment is underrated!
Anita Baker 💯💯💯 and I’ll admit I didn’t appreciate her until I was older‼️ Perfection 👌🏽
Love the show! Please ask Anthony Hamilton to interview.
This right here!
Great Episode Jay is the funniest guy ever I literally just sit and wait for the shit to fly out his mouth weekly 😂🤣😂🤣
Wonderful podcast! I was wondering if you could pay tribute to Jesse Powell, who was an underrated yet amazing vocalist and a huge asset to R&B.🙏🏽
This was such a good episode! I laughed so hard 😂. Also, J Valentine…we see you growing in your church culture, Sir! We see you 😊 Love to see it.
I'm glad J Valentine mentioned that he didn't name women among the top artist lists, a lot of guests have done that w/o it being pointed out. Also happy for Al Green mention bc I need to hear more appreciation of him!
Luke James is epic his vocal ability his range his sex appeal his humbleness it all permeates in his vocal ability it just who's the thing of it is is when he first came out it's a solo artist and not a background singer I think the music wasn't written well for him the story wasn't written well for him now I've heard some more contemporary more recent stuff that the music is extremely well written for him however I don't know what's going on we're not hearing him maybe because he's given that Gemini energy you know the shy humble thing when at the end of the day he's a beast and the vocal Realm he was on some award show I can't remember which one it was and he killed it and I'm like wow I didn't really give him his just do
The best show on UA-cam. We were raised on The Winans, Commissioned, James Cleveland and all the mass choirs!! This show is top notch. Keep it up fellas💓💓💓

By now, they’ve mentioned several times that it’s not that kind of podcast. It’s hella random…one day you might see Kevin Garnett as a guest.
& Summer Walker
And Durrand
Thanks R&B Money for introducing me to the amazing Stevie Mackey 😍
You bet!
When you love all things R&B, you love learning the history. I'm a 70's baby but having older parents (mother is 80 and father would have been 83), siblingd, aunts and uncles and even 1st cousins, I know music from the decades before me.
Love Stevie Mackey! Great episode! Can we get Durand Bernarr and Amber Riley eventually?! That’d be everything
Durand🔥🔥🔥
Damn I wish yall could've got Jesse Powell before he passed. RIP King🤴🏿
This podcast is pure Magic! Knew this episode would be amazing from the Mickey Mouse “shorts,” but as always, we get way more than we bargained for. He dropped so many gems and when you’re influenced by the gospel greats, nothing but incredible talent can come from that. Darryl Coley, John P Kee, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Commissioned, Anita, I mean, my God!! That “Amen,” theme song still SLAPS! Stevie is so humble, yet so talented, and I can’t wait for him to put himself out there on an even bigger level. The fact that his start was singing behind Lalah, come on 👏🏾. I love to hear Stevie and Avery Wilson sing together. I love to see Stevie at the piano, playing behind so many wonderful artists and promoting and loving on so many wonderful artists. We need more like him. His “top fives,” were great, and shout out to him making all efforts to save his reputation from a rapper doing the most 😩😂. Can’t say it enough, this podcast makes me feel good. Y’all are infectious and everything is always seamless. Nothing is ever forced. I don’t know how it’s not at a million subs already. Thank y’all for this, and I’ll continue to say it over and over again. Y’all make Saturday mornings better. I truly look forward to it every week. Thanks again for another fantastic episode 🥰 I know I’ve said a mouthful, but I’m so thankful for this and this podcast has helped me to get out of whatever low points that have been endured because of the things going on in the world. Looking forward to the next episode, as always 🥰
Thank you guys so much for putting some respect on my city! Detroit's style does deserve to be studied
No doubt!
Stand Up Detroit
Damn right we do lol
We definitely need Sevyn Streeter on here! I would love to hear her story ❤
I knew this was going to be EPIC when I saw Stevie’s name. He can put out a Mickey Mouse thunder cat album, I’m here for it!
The energy y’all have with each other and the guests is amazing and enhances every aspect of this show! Much love!
He should put out an album, don't travel but have specials with him and his favorite friends to sing with him.
This by far is one of the coldest episodes yet!! My boy Stevie Mackey! Basically my entire family went to Oakwood. He and my brother N'Namdi Bryant were there together and worked out together, lil bro is cold too; check 'em out! But this was a very necessary interview to have! It was hilarious, you got the exclusive on lock and you gave the flowers to one of the rawest, coldest, and gifted G's in the game! Aye keep holding it down fellas! I love the podcast!
Much love & respect,
Wayde
Daryl Coley runs a mile singing When Sunday Comes
Another great conversation!! Mickey Mouse impression was GREAT!!! Love love love!!!! I grew up Seventh Day Adventist, and Oakwood was and still the best!!!!!! Loved going there growing up.
Thanks for sharing!!
Oakwoodite here I was only there one year but everything Stevie said about the music department is true! 😂
This podcast is the perfect combination of music, comedy, and history. All the weird facts and J saying wtf he want? Yeah, keep that! 😂🫶🏽. J comedy timing is what keeps me HOLLERING. I love it here. Never stop. WE NEED JAZ ON🎤
Please get maxwell on theeee SHOW!!!!
ALL THINGS RNB BABY!!! Wheew!!!
That would be epic!!!
Tank, J... Have y'all ever thought about a Lil 5 min segment where Tank or your guest jumps on the keyboard? They can maybe sing a verse and chorus to one or two of their favorite songs, preferably, not their own music. Y'all already got in the stu. Peace
I second this! Like a talent jam session showcasing a lil bit 🔥🔥🔥
Shout out to "Daryl Coley". I love the gospel music influence in the discussions here.......
Proud and honored to grow up with Stevie in church and gain him as a mentor and big brother 🙏🏾
Let's not forget about the Clark sisters!!! Detroit's finest!
I think this will be the ONLY show where the guest is prettier than J. Valentine!!!!! Love you J!!!! 🙈😂💜
I remember being soooo memorized seeing Stevie sing at my church for youth day's and special music.. hes definitely royaly in the seventh day Adventist world.. every time I seen him.. I was just in awe..
He IS mesmerizing! 😍🙌🏽
@@sha1841 😂😂😂❤
Stevie Mackey new album should be called The wonderful world of Mackey‼💯😍
I for one am waiting for this Christmas/Negro Spiritual/Lullaby album so I can sit down with my mulled wine, bible and pj’s and catch the spirit!!! Another great interview, thanks RNB Money!
He should just call it Gumbo 😂
Stevie!!! We are here for a Soulful Disney Album. That would be fire 🔥🔥🔥 With a Mickey Mouse interlude lol ❤
Low KEYYYYY…… Mickey Soul would go PLATINUM!!!! 💯🙌🏽👀
I think 2023…. We need a RnB Money podcast tour. I would love to be present for some of these. I definitely wanted Stevie to give another story. So excited for his album 👏🏽
Omg when StevieMackey on R& B and Tank start talking about Maxwell oh my god that’s my guy I love me some Maxwell his vocal singing he is definitely a legend and is all right I got given gift to the ladies ❤ thank you thank you for mentioning Maxwell singing to Stevie on his birthday🎉 and to see the tears come from both of you brother‘s eyes I know that it was real because when I hear Maxwell I cried to😢 whenever and whenever that’s my song to all of his music is amazing comes from the heart he is definitely gifted it 🙏🏾🫶🏾💐💯🎤😘
I'm VERY impressed with Stevie's knowledge of our musical history! 👊🏾 Play on playa!!
His daddy is one of us
R&B Money you've done it again!! Stevie Mackey is a gem and treasure that deserve the flowers that you have bestowed on him through this awesome interview!! I love the music advice, wisdom and history lessons of the industry that Stevie explained soooo well. He named some great vocalists as well such as Darryl Coley, Karen Clark Sheard,James Brown, Commissioned,Avery Wilson etc. ❤️💰❤️💰
Hell, Stevie's album should be called "All Over The Place" ppl would relate and it would have good variety.
“All over the place” is a GENIUS album title. Keeping it simple is the best way to go sometimes. Do whatever you have to do to make sure they see this😂
@@jamestoneyjr 😆 🤣 😂 I inboxed him on IG 😆 🤣 😂 😹
Musiq Soulchild talks about how he doesn’t like the moniker of being an R&B artist: I am with J. Valentine on validating your genre/stake. Stevie gives the history! Tank is leading in dropping the history especially how gospel influences R&B.
Oakwood University is a hidden gem. So much talent out of that HBCU.
I would like to see J Valentine as the guest.
Stevie Mackey is a gem. I love his Taco Tuesdays!! He’s voice and piano skills are top tier. I hope he comes out with an album one day 🫶🏽
Also finally someone mentioning Joe ❤️ loved that era with avant and Donell
Come on with the history lesson, Mackey!!!!! 👍🏽💪🏾
Stevie is all FACTS purely! A true professional. I have been waiting on someone to pick his brain and heart! Thank you R & B Money
23:36 this is the most r&b thing I've ever heard.😂😂😂😂
I love this! The peek behind the scenes is fascinating! Gotta get Maxwell on here.
GREAT episode! Lots of rnb gems! That story about Detroit’s past singers singing with their heart and soul coming from a real place because of the blacks from the south going north makes a lot is sense!
I remember hearing Stevie sing week in and week out at church and Oakwood U in Huntsville, Alabama, back in the day. He has a great family and it's great to see how far his talent has taken him.
Please have Tevin Campbell on the show.
I love listening to the podcast and then watch on Saturdays. To see their face expressions. J mannerisms gets me every time😂
Avery Wilson absolutely needs to sit with y’all!!! 🚨🚨🚨
Stevie Mackie is a vocal BEAST! It's great to hear his back story and insight.
That Mickey mouse impression scary good 😂
Stevie is a living legend. ❤
His Mickey Mouse impression was on point omgeee he’s a cool singer too
I’m rolling with Cho Mickey 😂😂😂 Tank is hilarious!!!!
This podcast is sooooo special!!!!!!!! I'm awestruck by how MANY gifted vocalists and musicians we have been privy to!
My moment was my mom hearing me sing Tina Marie at age 6. This is getting me excited to get voice lessons for me and my now 6 year old daughter ❣️
We will be in somebody's choir! So inspiring.
Love this podcast! Great episode. My suggestions for future guests: Anita Baker, Angela Winbush, Tevin Campbell, Keith Sweat, Evelyn Champagne King, Maxwell, and Charlie Wilson, just to name a few 😊
All of these especially Angela Winbush Alexa play Angel oooooooh lol
He needs to be a judge on these voice competitions!! 👌🏾Okay, so he WAS on the Voice, explains it!! 😂
I like Coldplay too!!
R&B lives in everything and everyone.
You listen to music in everything you do: cleaning, beauty salon, shopping, you name it.❤❤
This was a very enlightening conversation. Keep it going RNB MONEY!! Mickey Mouse imitation was 😂
💯
Yooooo, I'm still shook from that but dead on.
Daryl Coley again.......grew up on him. My parents used to bump him all the time. Thank you Tank and J Valentine for this podcast! I have watched a few episodes. Great work. Liked and subscribed 👍💯💪🔥
Thanks for listening
SUPERWOMAN/WHERE WERE YOU!!! Stevie...my goodness, your ear. THAT is THEEEE song!!!
Ok Tank, classic Physique 2023 let's go!
Stevie needs to hit up Halle Bailey and get this Disney track on deck!
Oo thank your tank for asking about the Mickey Mouse voice overs audition I was wondering too. I’m happy to here about his journey.
Stevie is such a student of music. Listening to him is awe inspiring
Didn’t know how much we needed this episode
Oh my goodness. I seen the JLo birthday party lives and remembered seeing and hearing him. His voice is soooo beautiful. Thanks for sharing he was interesting. I'm here for the Mickey Soul. LOL
