Hello friends, this is Doug Payne of Doug Payne & Polygon. I had the chance to meet Lalah at the 2015 Marian Anderson Awards held in Philly. I told her that I attended her father's memorial service held at Rankin Chapel when I was a music student at Howard University. I remember when Stevie Wonder sent a beautiful acknowledgement to Donnie. She laughed when I told her that the music professors at Howard were tough on us because of the success of their former students Donnie & Roberta.
FACTS💯💯Donny is the ONLY EXCEPTION to the rule: The bass and drums are the cool kids of the band. All the girls walked past the bass and drums to Donny thinking HE was Rick (the lead of the Rick Powell Trio, who was actually on drums😄😄)😂😂😂 #OnlyHim
"If you're up there with your eyes closed...feeling precious and feeling cute-Nobody is here for that. People want to be moved- people want to feel you in the room and that's how you make the difference" @lalahhathaway
Lalah is so knowledgeable about her craft/art, she's so very literate/intelligent & well spoken, beautiful, & a vocal genius🙌🏾 #BlackWoman #StrongWoman #IntelligentWoman #TimelessArtist = #HathawayGreatness #BlackGirlzRock💃🏾Lalah💜
I love this they were so honest music isn't always about perfection as much as your passion I so love Lala and her art and who she sings with and what she stands for never selling out but yet always winning
Love how Lalah uses her gift and sets it free in her musical expression. Artistry is so much better than simply being a singer in the music industry. Never compromise on your passion. Thank you👏👏💖
Liked her for years, but hadn't heard a lot of her work. Finally got her debut album, and it sounded great---it has a nice jazz influence in some songs. Cool to see how grounded and down-to-earth she is, too. Always thought she should have been a bigger name, talented as she is, but she seems cool with just being who she is, which is even cooler.
Always "My Girl" thank you so much... all about the conversation.... the communication... tell the story..... again thank you ....to you ... and your awesome fellow vocalist and your band likewise💕💕💕 really hope that i see and enjoy you guys in person.... always love the Joe Sample works...Kirk Whalum...Snarky Puppy .... and all of your other good works....i thank The Lord for the sounds and tone of your voice ... God Bless you your singers and your band ...
"We were two" I wish they'd let the whole song play (Lalah a Capella is a 😘 from Jesus)!!! I really do! I despise when she's cut off...that's like interrupting Donny 😒
He got two prime seating tickets to see her show. Out of town in a destination type city. All expenses paid! I am an adoring fan who wld love to focus ALL my attention on EVERY sound Lalah has to communicate- y'all dig whud I'm sayin? Then I'll want to marinate in it.... let my memory perculate the testimony I just received. Sooooo my problem is when he'll want to interrupt because he kinda needs the world to revolve around him. 1) suggest he use the ticket with someone who feels he hung the moon? 2) excuse myself as she takes the stage and watch from some obscure place? 3) get a second job and buy my own ticket? 4) slip him a Mickey and wake him when its over?

+Valensky Mata Hi Valensky. Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately not - we've only got a highlights video for this Masterclass.
Did you here the music industry, stop closing your eyes when you sing.
What song was she performing at the beginning? Or was she just improvising? 😮
Improvising
Hey, stop! Whats the name of that songIts close to the end if anybody may know.
+Car Math It's called We Were 2. It is on her Outrun the Sky album.
"We were two" I wish they'd let the whole song play (Lalah a Capella is a 😘 from Jesus)!!! I really do! I despise when she's cut off...that's like interrupting Donny 😒

1) suggest he use the ticket with someone who feels he hung the moon?
2) excuse myself as she takes the stage and watch from some obscure place?
3) get a second job and buy my own ticket?
4) slip him a Mickey and wake him when its over?
Just watch the show and have fun, lol. No slipping nobody anything, though, lolo.
too short!
I thought the guy in the intro was singing for bout 4 secs 😂😂😂😂😂
