Donny Hathaway is in Heaven talkin' 'bout "I'm da pappy!"
This is beautiful, soulful artistry at its best!

[@noonelikeher]

Her voice is like a much needed summer breeze. Love her always.

[@jamboy3]

I can listen to her endlessly....never get tired of that perfect smooth voice.

[@kingblah687]

The original is undoubtedly a classic, but Lalah’s version is definitely up there. 😍

[@tasams]

Lalah’s rendition is infused with more jazz and Neo-Soul.

[@kim8231]

Anita Baker must be proud!! 🎶🎵🎶

[@yahrize1love548]

Very well said sis😊🤗💯🙌

[@DaBassLadyCovers]

Amen! I think there’s only a few artists who can make covers their own, Luther, Lalah, and Maxwell.

I CAN LISTEN TO MISS LALAH N HER DADDY DONNY ALL DAY, SHE IS ICONIC JUST LIKE HER FATHER, BUT WITH A BEEAUTIFUL ANGELIC STYLE OF HER OWN, THANK YOU FOR EMBRACING US WITH SUCH TALENT,😍😎🤗

[@angeliaking9933]

When she sings she makes it better..wow a huge Fan.

[@k_perry]

Anita Baker (the GOAT) and Lalah Hathaway are the ONLY two people in the world allowed to sing this song from here on out. Lol. Usually, I don't think anyone should touch Anita's music but I feel like Lalah did this song EVERY justice!

[@ikecot3]

Anita is not the Goat that belongs to Chaka Kahn and Anita can't even Touch Lalah

[@lesliecolyer_brown6208]

@@ikecot3 Oh! I was going to mention Chaka also! Love all 3 ladies.

[@brentduanefoster]

Lalah is killing, like always, and the band is IN THE POCKET...perfect combination.

[@sammidizzle5599]

Baritone NEVER sounded so beautiful 🤩

[@rachelegreer3692]

She put her life and soul into this song

[@sweetzallen9429]

OMG i just looooooooove her....she is my fav R&B singer from back when she dropped her song "heaven only knows" in the early 90's...her voice is just unexplainable😍

[@perk2997]

I have a new favorite singer. That was simply amazing. You know a singer is special when they can take someone's mega hit song and make it better. World please take notice of Lalah Hathaway. No gimmicks, no dancers, no pyrotechnics, no autotune just her and her voice. Lord Have Mercy.

[@BossDogg39]

In that mathafuckin' order! She a bad girl. Her voice is just natural raw talent!. Love her to death. This is what music is all about. This new generation should take note!

[@tasams]

Exactly! Just pure singing talent…nothing else needed.

[@ronneal1]
