Part 1: • Day26: Brian Angel Adm...
--------
Members of Day26 expressed their dedication to revitalizing the essence of pure R&B with their latest album, which unapologetically avoids trap beats and trendy elements. This project aims to counter the "R&B is dead" sentiment by focusing on heartfelt harmonies and the group's signature multi-part vocals. Day26 aspires to rekindle the love for traditional R&B, creating music they dub "relationship music," which embodies both the joys and struggles of love. The group acknowledged the powerful impact music has on listeners' emotions and life experiences.
A debate about the best living singers was also a topic of discussion. While acknowledging R. Kelly's prolific contribution to the R&B genre and his undeniable songwriting prowess, including works for icons like Michael Jackson, the group contended that he isn't unrivaled vocally. They emphasized that vocal talent is subjective, with many artists possibly surpassing him in vocal abilities. However, they still recognized R. Kelly as the "king of R&B," demonstrating the complex layers of his musical legacy.
Big Mike sitting there like “I’m just here so I don’t get fined”
He look like he want to get up and leave
I think he still feels like the industry higher ups are going to blacklist them if they speak out
I’ve watched all parts released so far and big Mike ain’t said a word 😂
😂😂😂
😂😂 he’s always been kind of quiet
Even though R. Kelly did what he did that's unspeakable, he would out-sing that whole group.
Damn
@@Tomfrom_woods Facts!!
Period.. This is the most motion they have ever had they can thank puffy. Because everybody is using the situation to get their coins.
Facts!
Super Facts
R Kelly will mop the floor up with them. Excellent writer and singer. He is an icon.
@@kuangray3581 You damn skippy!
He’s an excellent composer but not vocalist.
@@Awillii he’s an excellent vocalist. Have you seen him sing live ?
He is not. He does well due to his style, but he's not a top tier vocalist. Never been @@theelovelydarkhole7556
@@theelovelydarkhole7556Facts , I always thought he was dope on CDs but live is a whole nother level
Big Mike's energy has been off this whole entire interview...... - am I tripping 👀??
I was thinking the same thing.
What energy? I don’t think he said a single word. Even when they was all shedding tears with their friend he just sat there looking at his phone 😂
He not interested
Guess he didn’t want to be here at all
He’s always been the quiet one of the bunch but I did feel his energy was a bit off here
R Kelly will sing every one of them out the building. Stop the cap and I’m a day26 fan.
Nope
He really isn’t that great of a vocalist just good songs. Not a bad singer but definitely can’t sing like these guys.
Day 26 need to get R.Kelly to write them a hit.😂😂😂
@@OfficialHollisJordan Kellz is Multi- Genre. He can sing Opera. These guys can sing.. But not like Kellz
Did you watch the interview they weren’t talking about themselves vocally against him. And R Kelly is not a better singer than Usher, Joe, Dave Hollister, Mark Middleton of Blackstreet, Luke James, Luther, Keith Washington, Johnny Gill, El Debarge, Silk, Boyz II Men etc etc etc all better vocalist than R Kelly. Day 26 gave him his flowers. As an artist and songwriter though. No one is beating R Kelly. But he’s not the best vocalist
Stop the 🧢. Kels sounds the same live and in person just like he sound on the track. Go watch his performance at Whitney Houston funeral. 💯
Nowhere near one of his best performances
R. Kelly will circles around every member of this group
Easily, not sure who pumped their heads up
@@nadecha5326 Their egos did that.
Not at all
Vocally???
@@nishashawn2021 R. Kelly is vocally better than all of them
Big mike been chilling like it ain't shit while everyone was crying
Probably seen him cry a thousand times about it already
@@nadecha5326and???
Big Mike definitely leaving this group…. He not even wearing the merch! 😩
So he’s gona Ice Cube them?
You lyin to me, sayin R Kelly is mostly just the lyrics…naah. He definitely has the vocals to match.
R Kelly Is A Phenomenal Singer SMH 🤦🏽♀️
Big Mike the bodyguard today
Dat black nail shyt be throwin me off with grown men 🌚
R the King of R&B but vocally Luther is King!

I wish vlad would direct some questions to big mike and see how he respond . Why he just sitting there
He clearly don’t want to be there
Big mike is security 😂
Just checked this, and wow you've got skills. More plz.
Keep staying real, you're making great.
Somebody check on Mike😂
R Kelly the best there ever will be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
NOBODY DEAD OR ALIVE IS BETTER IN ANY aspect of music than Michael Jackson 👑🕴🏽✨✨
I haven’t heard Big Mike say a word the whole interview
I wonder if Vlad will direct a question to Mike to answer. To encourage him to open up. He might just need some gentle persuasion. 😬
Honestly, this album is just “aight”. Every song sounds the same. Y’all use the same formula on every song. Y’all should have Mike, Que, and Willy on the verses and Brian and the guy that do all the runs on the ad-libs and b-sections. Brian should not be on the first verse, EVER. He has a dope vocal but he starts the songs so high that y’all have NOWHERE to go with the songs. The songs don’t move or grow to anything, they are just songs. There’s no hooks that make me say “let me add that to the playlist”. The production and vocals are hands down INCREDIBLE, but I was hoping for so much from this album.
very good point about brian starting songs. “got me going” is a good example of him leading a song and it working but you’re totally right.
man r kelly is the best singer song writer whos better ... ... waiting none of yall can sing better than r kelly none of you all can out sing sisqo or usher yall music wasnt even fire like that im just keeping it real none of yall can mess with slim from 112
Did you watch before you left this comment lol
@@sinematic06I watched it these dudes ain’t that
@@largegod77 where did they even say they were better. Singers that are better than R Kelly. Let’s see Luther Vandross, Charlie Wilson, Johnny Gill, Kevon Edmonds, Gerald Levert, Wanya Morris, Johnny Gill, Stokley, Rahsaan Patterson, Mark Middleton, Joe, etc etc etc. R Kelly is the king of R&B. Has the best catalog. Is the best songwriter and producer next to Babyface. But best vocalist? He is not. Day 26 told no lies.
No matter how much of an R. Kelly fan you are, because of his musical legacy, when it comes to vocals, they're 100% right. R. Kelly is a great singer, but Wanya Morris of Boyz II Men, Brian McKnight, Marc Nelson, Dave Hollister, Kevon Edmonds of After 7, Mark Middleton of Blackstreet and many more would sing circles around R. Kelly in a singing battle with their vocal gymnastics and technicalities! And that's just a fact. Whose TONE you prefer more is a whole different discussion. Don't get the two confused!
@djsoulchild Maybe Wanya Morris but i respect your list....he should've did a solo album
Facts
Big Mike ain’t got nothing to say 😂😮😅he ain’t even got the matching hoodie on lol
This is great entertaining interview good shit 💪🏾
Old que is coming back
R kelly was a musical genius he wrote for so many people and himself and never wrote because he couldnt read. He made trapped in the closet making a whole damn story song that could never be duplicated. The little girl stuff I dont mess with but his talent is something that may not be seen ever again.
Old Thing Back is my favorite song on their new album especially since I got back with my high school sweetheart, that’s our theme song 🔥🔥🔥 they definitely bought R&B back.. that album definitely for the lovers ❤❤
My fav too. Shout out to yall
This group is trippin R. Kelly can not only out sang ya'll, but even with the help of Diddy none of y'all remained famous and if your voice was as good as Kellz? Then people would still know who you are today, because after making the band nostalgia that was it and no one under 20 knows y'all, but i bet they know R . Kelly's music and voice.
They gave him his well deserved flowers. I don’t understand the negative tone of the comment. R Kelly is a GOAT artist and songwriter but there are plenty of male singers that are better than him. That doesn’t take away from all his legendary impact. They didn’t say anything disrespectful at all
R.kelly not the best singer is crazy
Marvin Gaye, Luther, Aaron Hall… there is a few but R Kelly talent is undeniable.
Why didn't they just spit a name out when asked WHO is better than Kelly????? THEN they went on to praise him and prove WHY THEY think he is the greatest... Just sounded CONTRADICTORY.
R. Kelly in PRISON is better than these guys on their best day.
@@HennesseeVol and that’s facts
SHIIID!!! Y’all can say what you want about R Kelly but there ain’t many touching him vocally! Especially not these dudes. And they damn sure ain’t touching his catalog of music. Period!!!!!!
Yea they delusional
If they tour, im going! They are gonna get my lil coin. I want the best for them.
They weren’t being disrespectful it’s the truth. R. Kelly is not the best vocalist. There are dozens of better singers vocally
He’s better than them though
WILLIE WAS LIKE NAW... LMAO
they danced around the question like diddy danced around their feelings
R.KELLY IS MY GUY ❗Hes #2 on my Top 5....AINT NOBODY Playing Wit K-Ci❗
Mike is not talking because he knows if he interacts Vlad is going to cut him off and tell him about the time he got robbed shirtless in Mexico by cops with guns.
The title is "Diabolical" 😑🤔😂😂😂😂😂

Where is the references track for “Charlie,Last name Wilson” that he mention at 6:34 ! I need that !
First of all R. Kelly can sing live just like he sounds on all his hit records these Negas hating I wouldn’t be surprised if they are being paid to shit on R. Kelly .
Day 26 doesn't have any hits, and are not the best singers. 💯 Have a wonderful day.
😂😂💯
Bruh just STFU and you don’t realize they have no hits
Facts, who's bumping them now?
@@scottydippin1984me! Greatest groups ever only 2nd to Tupac
Day26 does have hits & they are the best singers. They can go toe to toe vocally with a lot of R&B groups. Period.
The dude that got his finger nails painted don't he know he's a old ass man?
how is it not amazing that a man that cannot read, made lyrics and notes and melodies with top tier vocals.. maybe not top top, but top for sure.. which amounted to a decade of hits..
They gave him credit for all of that
“Put on future right quick” ahahah naaah 🤣
I'm glad somebody finally said that about Kelly. Kelly a cold mf but it's so many ppl with better vocals. Hell of a songwriter and producer tho. The goat at what he do and nobody can take that away from him no matter what. He does have a unique sound but i dnt think most ppl understand what it means when they say vocally because youre not singers but he is one of the best vocalists
Mike ain't said shit ion think he want to be there
I always felt R Kelly is the modern day Marvin Gaye
@mrhmd8308 It's like aspects of Marvin and The Isley Brothers intertwined.
I’m still on that dude saying in the other video that they can’t go get a regular job like anybody will recognize them. I heard nothing they said since
😅
R. kelly is the king of R&B
Tank, Mario, & Luke James can all out sing him...but it's about way more than vocal ability.
You’re high
Luke James can outsing R Kelly and just about anybody else for that matter lol he’s up there with the best male vocalist ever
@@HMTWNHERO510lmaaoooo right, talking about some damn tank 🤣🤣🤣
They trippin bout kellz
Kellz 100 times better singer than anyone of them
Everyone Cappin Rkelly can sang not sing ....Cisco can sang Aaron Hall Kci Day 26 cant mess with him
Neither one of y’all can sing honestly
See now I know they high from rubbing some of that Diddy baby oil on them if they say that r Kelly is not one of the best singers in spite of what he did he is phenomenal in music what are they talking about
Big Mike ain never did to much talking !💯
He did no talking at all loll
What kind of girls is he dating that put future?😂😂
SHIIID!!! Y’all can say what you want about R Kelly but he will smoke all these dudes vocally! And they damn sure ain’t touching his catalog of music. Period!!!!!!
Did you watch before your comment? Lol they gave him his well deserved flowers. Nobody is touching R Kelly’s catalog or as a songwriter. But, there are better male vocalist than him. It doesn’t take away from his massive impact
That’s a long list is crazy
Interview over after the disrespect for Kellz
fan of r.kelly music. grew up with it and bought it. but has anybody ever just looked at his lyrics, theyre not that great 😂
R Kelly not the best singer…..Is you crazy
Kells is the best artist. Writing and producing wise
I find it weird after the Trauma that they went thru, S/A, that they talk about admiring a PdFile.
IMO Willie is a puppet, he been ran thru Diddy Style. He was rubbing’ elbow with R Kelly, being Groomed. He was pre selected to make the band IMo.
I think they all been fondled.
What? Kelz always sounds just like his records. He blows.
Valad always brings him up
Rob got a wife?! That may is clearly on the other side already.
Willie I am shocked you from Chicago
Nobody says (put that day 26 on) whole group is old and hot 🗑
By the caption alone , I agree he is not the best singer
I wanna know what happened with Donnie klang….i need him to do an interview
Akon is my favorite male singer of all time.
Oh my God! Qwanell, you done filled out. You look good. All of y'all still look good. Anyhow, R&B is dead though. My passion is the vocal side. How well you can sing, etcetera. I've noticed three types of "singing." The first one is that annoying talk/rap/sing/ thing that artists have been doing for the past 15 years. Basically, an auto-tune tone. The second one is that flat, mediocre Giveon/Daniel Caesar type of singing. Basically, it's that flat, one tone, monotonous sound that's considered "real singing." The third one is the most extreme. That annoying riff/run every 3 seconds type of singing. I'm thinking Avery Wilson and that other lil' boy that be w/ him. Beautiful voices, but annoying choices. See, when Aaron Hall and Wanyá Morris used to do it, they did it w/ soul, flavor and it decorated melody of the song. Nowadays, folks are just running to run and it screws up the melody. It got worse after Durrell Babbs created the _Can We Talk_ challenge a few years ago. Mo' like _Can We Run_ challenge. Perhaps the abuse of riffs/runs is due to all of the bad, auto-tune tone singing that done plagued the mainstream. It just never used to be this way. It went from gorgeous songs to folks recording clips of them doin' runs every 3 seconds. Anyhow, putting on "Future" in the bedroom is basically like telling me "I'm finna go home. We not gon kick it tonight." I wish a man would. You better put on some Maxwell or Sharde. Rap/trap in the bedroom is a mood killer for sure. *RUBS HANDS TOGETHER FOR THE "SINGING" SEGMENT OF THIS INTERVIEW!* This is my specialty. Y'all didn't mention no names, but it's all good. So, if we're talking R&B singers, FROM THE PAST, I mean...c'mon, like that's easy. Pretty much everyone sang better than R. Kelly except for Al B. Sure, Case and Darnell Jones. PRESENTLY... Eh. I'm actually afraid to say that a lot of my favorites either done lost they voice or they simply ain't puttin' they all into it no more. I watch a lot of concerts here on UA-cam and I've been disappointed, vocally. And miss me w/ the "they're not 20 years old no more" excuse. If they're still accepting money to perform live, folks have the right to critique it. Nah, let's get down to business. I recently saw Joe Thomas live (here on UA-cam) and I was kinda...eh. His chest voice is kinda gone. He was known for having a fluid and gorgeous chest voice. Haven't seen Brian McKnight in a minute, but I think he's safe, vocally. Eric Benét still be blowin' and his falsetto is still in pristine condition. Thankfully, K-Ci Hailey voice done recovered. I recently saw him singing w/ Usher Raymond and he sounded bomb. Mario Barrett can still sing. Stokley Williams still has his gorgeous voice. The lil' round-head man from Silk is a lil' shaky, vocally, but I'm sure he can still go if need be. Reece Gibson can still sing. Tev Campbell still sounds bomb and his range is still in tact. But yeah man. Y'all get the gist of where I'm goin' w/ this. R. Kelly pales in comparison to most singers.
Brian = Baby Sisqo
I know that title is click bait.
Big boy don't talk?
I believe you are right bout everything you said @kgeetv8234
This was TMI 😂
Change name none of their songs enough said 👀🍿
Q fine . Prayed for them 😢🙏🏾
That song Co star bring back memories

I like wu tang on or nas 😂
Play Future?! 🥷 helly cap, RnB throws you off? Music definitely doesn’t drown shit out, that’s what volume control is for 😂😂 🤡
Mike ain’t say one word.
kellz music is the shit
Mikeeeee talkkkkkk say hi my God
Yall gotta stop now this is cap
I’ve heard kellz sing live and it’s sounds just the same as the cd
Vocally he can’t be touched
It’s the fringe for me
