I had no idea Z-sharps and Q-flats were real. She taught me something today.
She is how I sounded as a teen in my room thinking I just killed a Christina Aguilera song.
You just forced me to relive a memory where I was singing "Reflection" while vacuuming, thinking the noise would hide my solo from family members... it didn't
Everyone knows at least one person at church who sings like this woman. They swear they nailed that solo while doing a drive by on everybody’s eardrums
I’m friends with this girl now and fortunately she immediately knew how awful that was
@@colesmith7509 Aw that sucks - maybe performing at CPAC wasn’t a great choice. Any mistakes by the person singing the national anthem at CPAC were bound to be highlighted by those who don’t support that side of the political fence
No, that wasn't a mic drop after her performance. It was the mic leaping from her hand in an act of suicide.
You're bad! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can't..... hold it..... in.......any........ longer........
She changed keys like someone who really gotta pee, standing at the front door trying to get it unlocked. 😂
That man is a musical genius! How da hell did he follow that plane crash.
That sucker had blowout engine failure like that United flight out of Denver last week
Yeah that sucker had engine blowout failure like that United flight out of Denver last week
Whew! That was rough! One of my autistic kids has perfect pitch, and it’s a blessing and a curse. When she started singing, he put his tablet down and came to watch over my shoulder. Within just a few seconds, he was making pained faces, alternating between putting his hands over his ears and trying to wrestle my phone away from me, and shouting “Turn it off! Stop singing!” So I put my headphones in to stop tormenting my child. After it was done, he sang me a beautiful rendition of the song, to help me recover from that horror.
@@hasanjabbar All three of my kids were diagnosed by a developmental pediatrician. I was diagnosed by a psychologist / educational diagnostician, and my neurologist has confirmed it. A psychiatrist can diagnose autism as well.
One really doesn't need perfect pitch to be tormented by this version :)
🤣🤣🤣🤣 "c'mon show your range!!!" "Switch it up!!” I'M CRYING LAUGHING
#NoKeyLeftBehind That girl went up and down that scale like a elevator.
Sis, that was more of a bob and weave like a bucket being lowered down by hand.
I'm convinced she's exploring key changes that even Jacob Collier never imagined.
Is anyone else as impressed as I am that she actually ended up in the same key as she started in after all the gymnastics???
My professor for ear training put this on first thing this(Monday) morning and I was so tired I seriously thought that I was still asleep and this was my stress dream about being late for class
Kevon this was literally just you showing how skilled you are.... you made it almost....ALMOST bearable
I stopped paying attention to her altogether, and basked in the accompaniment
He amazes me every time! A BEAST in these keyboard streets 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Only thing that could make that rendition bearable is the MUTE button.
Her rendition tells me all I need to know about this event.
I smell a payoff & no audition for her spot. Imagine the tech at the sound check ..
Serious question with all due respect if your a born again christian: do you really this the opposite party is the party that is making it easier for the mandate by Jesus to move the gospel foward?
@@gabharri910 the closest I could find is this, except at the CPAC the guy had gone home already..
ua-cam.com/video/s28oq4W2PPk/v-deo.html
@@SamoanBamz_94 what is that grammar? If I understood correctly, Christianity’s core beliefs follow democratic socialism so...
It takes real talent to hear ALL the wrong notes in all the wrong keys, play them and make it sound good. Well...almost good. You got skills bro.
I'd never heard anybody modulate a quarter step before.
@@BrunoNeureiter Yeah but it took him the whole song. She managed it like twenty times in one song. Jacob Collier has nothing on this galaxy brain 😂
Q: How can you know if a singer is knocking at your front door?
A: They can't find the key, and they don't know where to come in
Lololol, yesss....😂 but an *untrained* singer. Trained singers are usually capable of both. :)
The little gasp at the end of "free" kills me cause it's like her body is saying "that was NOT it"
I interpreted it as "wow, I did it!", meanwhile she didn't comprehend what she did to the anthem as a whole.
When he says “come on! Switch it up!!” That got me 😂😂 I’m here for this
Pianist: what key do you want it in
Her: yes....
It’s only twelve major ones. Now, if you count the minors, whole tone, chromatic, and all mode combinations I would be 87 keys I guess. She tried them all.
This is one of those "Choose your own adventure" songs!
It's an intricate game of follow the leader. You won sir. You won 🏆
We are missing you, Kevon Carter! Where are you? Many Blessings!
You literally just made me scream and cry from laughter with this one, Kevon. Your skillful key changes and cheering her on like that singing was just the most wonderful thing ever heard broke me completely down. What a comedic and musical genius you are! Thank you!
She looked around as she sang that “free” note, as she was expecting people to clap for her like people do with GOOD singers. Lol
"Q" says she's better than Whitney Houston.
For a group that claims they're so concerned about "respect for the Anthem," this is criminal.
LOL
Q is petty as a mug if he's comparing that warbling to Whitney. She managed to be in every key and no key at the same time.
Lmao be fair, no respectable singer would ever sing at cpac lol so I'm sure it was slim pickings for them 😂😂🤣🤣
Did they deadass say she was better than Whitney?? Naw, dawg now we KNOW they lyin to themselves 💀💀
Hope you're only taking a break! And hope to see you back soon. Best wishes.
Kevon Carter, where are you? We haven’t seen any post from you in a while. We send prayers your way for you and your family 😇🙏🏾
Her rendition is exactly what the CPAC deserves. 😳😳
I take a knee to that rendition. And I won't beat her senseless with a flag pole . Tremendous .Don't cancel culture her talent .
🤣🤣🤣🤣 YOOOO!!!! You a fool bro!!! I nearly died looking at your facial expressions during the key changes. She must've changed keys 20 times!!🤦🏽♂️
I made it 12 changes, but I gave her leeway on some notes, because I suspect her sense of pitch might not be very good. 😁🤣
Everyone is asking so I thought I’d ease your minds. I looked him up and he responded 4 weeks ago saying he is doing good so thank God for that. That was all but at least we know he is alive. I saw this on Instagram by the way. I do not know him personally
I am crying - 🤓😜😂 - HI-LARIOUS. That woman was all over the place, just like CPAC. That anthem makes sense for them.
Kevon! The encouragement you gave with every wrong note had me crying! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
God given gift to catch “Every” key change 😂 😂 Wow!!!
@@gabharri910 bless him he did his best with a standard keyboard but I feel like she necessitates a quartertone keyboard
Kevon, obeying THE rule of accompaniment: follow the soloist.
This is the musical equivalent of conservative commentators giving Trump the benefit of the doubt.
S. S. Banner sits in the witness stand. Prosecutor, "Can you show us on the piano where the lady hurt you?" S. Banner, "right here, in the key of Q".
Maybe she's just really into double-flats/sharps and is trying to unify us by blending various eastern and western scales/styles all within this single piece. A truly powerful interpretation... 😑
Where u been Kev? U good?
This video is an absolute work of genius and a public service. Thank you.
I've never seen so much talent and shade thrown at the same time!!
Let her keep messing this up, because if she sings “lift every voice” I’m going to fight her.
Hey just checking on you. Haven't seen anything recently. Sending up prayers and hoping all is well and will be well in Jesus name 🙏.
You are astounding, man. Figuring out the chords to make it all sound intentional....amazing. Astounding. And you're doing it without reading anything for reference. You just composed and memorized a crazy jazz interpolation of the song. Amazing, man. SO smart. I wonder what percentage of the viewers really got what you were doing.
The brother knows his stuff! I wonder how many times he had to listen through beforehand to get where she was (or wasn’t) going? That mashup actually turned the whole thing into something interesting. They should form an avant-garde project of her just doing whatever and him finding a way to make it work. Isn’t that the perfect musical metaphor for American society right now anyways?
@@kiptanaka Completely! Of course, I doubt the singer would want to participate in a project where the premise is someone trying to make sense of her being tone deaf...but it would be interesting. I wonder how fast he was able to figure this stuff out. Those chords he throws under her are just crazy.
Genius. A good, supportive pianist can make anyone look good - not necessarily sound good, but hey, this was a mammoth job on your part!
Anyone know how brother Kevon Carter is doing?
This version brought macaroni and cheese with peas to the picnic.
You're a jewel, brother musician. You could back up a telephone dial and make it sound good.
this is so off the hook. not only turning insanity into order, but man, you're even setting up the damn changes. and, all that aside, this is the ultimate level of welcoming in. you are literally welcoming in this lost soul up and into the society of music. you are the antithesis of cancel. i cannot wait until we can all live in your world. RESPECT.
Bro you've not posted in a while, you good??
🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️...Dang it!! If they wanted me to sing, ALL THEY HAD TO DO WAS ASK!! However, you did that!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😂😂😂
Such talent!!! And I do mean Kevon for managing to keep up with all those key changes. Brilliant!
Brother Carter, wherever you are, I send you blessings.
Why’s nobody talking about how good this dude’s reharmonization on the piano is?!?!?!?
CPAC is a convention for the politically tone deaf, so this rendition is appropriate
My God man you can put some soul to anything! You're very talented. God bless you!🙏🏽👏🏾✝️
This little girl showed that culture and enlightenment are not dead by bringing out these great musicians; 2020 didn't kill Art. Nice job.
Brother Musician are you okay?
The Dunning Kruger Effect is a helluva drug.
This sounds like the soundtrack to a surreal nightmare. Oh, wait...
Ps, killer accompaniment.
I saw Larry Golding's piece first - awesome stuff. But this one ... what a positive take on her rendition. Equally hilarious, equally creative, showing that a skilled musician can find beauty just about anywhere. Even at CPAC ...
She was brave to sing publicly! He was incredible to keep up with her. Very free, style.
One of the funniest fkng things I've seen in a long time!! OMG!! "SWITCH IT UP!!!"
"Show Yo Range !! " 🤣🤣🤣 Storm those notes like ya'll stormed the capital !!
It's unbelievable how good sound. Your harmonization is lovable! With a touch of gospel taste. Thank you.
Glad to see your videos today! She changed that key at least 50 times. 😂
Brilliant! You have given me and many musician friends over here in the United Kingdom a tremendous amount of joy. Many thanks.
Whew! Kept us all guessing 😅 naw fr tho, this hurt! Glad you had her back on them keys Kev! 👏🏿
I assume she was hired by a payoff rather than an audition ? Kevon - how in the heck did you follow that ? Way to go man . I'm subbing just based on this .
Dude! Amazing! You are hilarious and that groove on "freeee" was 🔥.
Miss your post. Hope all is well.
Comedic and musical genius! Thanks for this Kevon!
Oh hey it's The Star-Spangled Banner Total Landscaping! Amazing job following along with that hot mess. Wowza.
Lord have mercy! Kevon you sure held your own with this one! I lost count of how many time she changed key! 😂😂😂😂
“C’mon! Switch it up! Show your range!” Hilarious!
Great playing brother. I love the way you found those diminished and augmented chords 💯💯 spot on.
The way I knew you would save this 😂❤️🎶 the vocals still cut through soooo hard 😩
1:18-1:21 I LOVE the chord change you put here, simple yet effective! So many golden moments of instrumentation throughout 🙌
Wow, Kevon actually made that bearable! Great accompaniment.
Damn, three months later and this rendition of the National Anthem still hurts.
You are a national treasure. We are CRYING laughing
Your accompaniment game is ON FIRE !¡!
Nice use of the B knuckle 7 chord. Incredible, Kevon
She served up the Star Mangled Banner...you put the flavor on. Well done.
Adam Neely needs to analyze this.
Oh you were too nice to her. Even my dog looked at me disgusted and walked out of the room hearing her.
Yesss ... On the 'free' 'note' my cat woke up from a dead sleep and hissed at the TV like something bit her.
I would've thought dogs would be howling in misery upon "hearing" this monstrosity.
I wish you were my accompaniment!! You'd make me sound good all the time!!👏🏾👏🏾
Even her Eyeball tried to Free Itself
When She went with the Land of the
Free Part. 😂🤣
When she told them she could sing it in any key, she wasn't kidding.
*every
At random
she sang all the right notes just not necessarily in the right order
All keys matter!
lol
