ABOUT THE VOICE
The four-time Emmy Award-winning musical competition series "The Voice" returns as Queen of Country Reba McEntire claims her red chair alongside last season's champ, Niall Horan, and returning superstar coaches John Legend and Gwen Stefani as they vie to discover and coach the next singing phenomenon.
The show's innovative format features five stages of competition: Blind Auditions, Battle Rounds, Knockouts, Playoffs and Live Performance Shows.
This season, the block returns to the Blind Auditions, and during Battles, each coach will have two steals to use. The Three-Way Knockouts are also back. This time, however, artists will select their own songs to perform.
Once the Live Performance Shows begin, the top artists will compete against each other weekly during a live broadcast. This time, the television audience will vote to save their favorite artists. In the end, one artist will be named "The Voice" and receive the grand prize of a recording contract.

No singer has been able to cover this song as perfect as she did
@@bluntded Nope, I politely disagree, Leah did well, but it doesn't even come close to this. This one is so peaceful and well orchestrated, this version effortlessly ate.
@bluntded Leah's version was fantastic, but this young lady embodied Minnie Riperton's song. This performance was absolutely beautiful! 💯
th-cam.com/video/sQfFptaO60M/w-d-xo.htmlsi=B_BFwqaNmzVmz394
@@bluntded had no idea who Leah McFall was so I just watched her rendition expected to be blown away since it was supposedly better than Chechi’s and I was whelmed. After having watched Leah’s performance I find your statement to be borderline disrespectful to Chechi. It wasn’t even in the same league. Chechi’s vocal agility is next level.
Shanice did it and hit those high notes and she’s from the old school in her 50’s now
Whistle tones are one thing, but whistle with runs??? She’s insanely talented and amazing, and gorgeous!
This!
And watch they get rid of her. lol. Voice always does. I try not to watch cause they always get rid of good people.
It’s was falsetto not whistle tone.
I agree 100%
Gabriel Henrique faz isso direto, inclusive tem um Cover dessa música, pesquise 🤗🇧🇷
Black women voice are just divine guys! No one compare to them when it comes to music!
If perfection could be materialized, Chechi embodies all that when it comes to singing this masterpiece of Minnie Ripperton 🙌🏿👏🏿
One of the best auditions in the HISTORY OF THE VOICE
I agre
For sure
Yes .. yessss
Yeahhhhh ❤❤❤
Agreed. Did you see her 9n Stevie Mackey's bday episode?
She doesn't look liked auditioning, it feels like a Grammy's performance. I totally adore her voice and personality too.
I agree!!!!
Same here❤
I felt the same way! I had to remind myself she isn't a guest celebrity performer lol. What a talent!!!! I can sing but oh my God, who the hell has that level of vocal control and talent
Exactly
She is amazing! I have heard this performance over a 1,000 times. I loved every second
She got all the judges to turn their chair under 30 seconds. That has to be a record! She's SUPER talented and has a voice of an angel!
fastest was probably the guy who sang cough syrup way back in the earlier seasons
@@liambarron9772 that's right, Matthew Schuler, S5, Team Xtina. Never seen the coaches beg that hard for a contestant. He said one word and they all spun around and it was like a concert the coaches had front row seats to from then on. Also his cover of Florence's "Cosmic Love" was one of the best knockouts of all time.
nvm fastest was the dude who sang "I feel good" i forgot
Under 0.23 seconds to be exact
Caleb Sasser in this same season…12 seconds
I need for this version to be on the radio. She made it current and kept it so graceful.
Verdade.
I need it asappp!
She is great, no words abaut your voice
The fact she did whistle notes before that bridge part means this girl goes over and beyond the call of duty. She will go far in this competition.
she goes beyond the modern warfare
she goes beyond the battlefield
@@Rizzlybear-zy5yh 😭😭😭 SHE GOES BEYOND THE BLACK OPS
Wayyy past the warzone
😊😊😊 she does..
Not only did she hit the whistle note, she RAN with whistle notes
Hey do u know who she picked?
@@ihavenoname5940Gwen
Gwen
@@antoniociceroacecalderonma667 Ty❤️
She should of Picked John tho!!! It's he's a great singer!!
Her range is out of this world. She just soared through this song. She demonstrated so much power and raw talent.
She murdered that song...she ready right now. Dont need this platform but glad we heard her. Her runs are amazing. A STAR
I think it's safe to say she sings better than the judges
🤣🤣😜
Not that the judges are bad, just makes you wish there was someone like a Jennifer Hudson or Christina Aguilera on this season with her.
Especially Gwen...
@@prm2335Gwen is a good vocal coach though
@@prm2335she did choose Gwen.
The number of times I have watched this is unhealthy. So good.
Me too lol
I am guilty
Because it is perfect 🎉
Add me and family to the list
When I tell u I kept rewinding this...Her gratefulness and her smile warmed the stage with an Agelic sound. I wish I can record this song just like it is.
Sounds like she was just playing around too. That’s scary for ANY person trying to compete against this phenomenon!!! ❤
I Never in my life thought I would EVER hear anyone That could even come close to Minnie and I Absolutely Love This Beautiful Young Lady.❤❤❤
I said the same. It’s Minnie reincarnated. All souls return and she is definitely pushing through in CheChi. I’ve been replaying this all day.
Yes
I think these might be the cleanest whistle notes anyone has ever done on the show😳
dont diss the queen sophie bromberg
@@left2rightanimations561LMAOOO be fr…
Leah macfall
The most beautiful I've ever heard. ❤
@@left2rightanimations561SKSKSKSKSKS 😭😭😭
I hope that Maya Rudolph sees this performance. I’m sure she will be impressed that this lady sang her mother’s song so beautifully!
@zoramk3570 Listen to the original song from the album (not the radio version) and in the last part you hear Minnie singing “Maya, Maya” several times. The story was that her young daughter Maya Rudolph (who was a toddler) was there in the recording session with her. Minnie created that part of the song to calm her daughter down and get her attention.
They don’t play that part on the radio because people used to wonder why she said Maya over and over. They thought it was some type of chant or curse. But it’s a beautiful part of the song when you realize she was singing to her daughter just 5 years before she died.
@@kwilson4125esp the performance from Hawaii with the baby’s breath in her hair
@@kwilson4125🤔 Ma ya ya ya ya Ma ya ya ya ya Ma ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya yaaaa aww I bet that sounds so sweet 🥰🥰🥰 I'm now going to search for that version
This will make her cry when she see's this.
I literally said the same thing! ❤❤😊
A finalist? She's a superstar! 🌟⭐️💫
It's not audition.. It's concert.. 👏👏👏
Minnie Ripperton passed away at 32 y.o. she sent her representative to the voice. Miya Rudolph must have cried when she heard this woman hearing her mother through this woman. Sooooooo damned beautiful ❤️🙏🏾
if Chechi gets to the finals I hope Maya will come out and sing that song with her :)
Its because she has her Spirit ❤❤🎉🎉
I didn’t know Minnie had a daughter
@@carselevators930Look her up! Your mind will be BLOWN when you see who it is!
@@carselevators930she actually wrote this song about her daughter🥹❤️
She’s 32 years young , she looks like 20 years young. She’s beautiful and she sings beautifully.
Same I thought she was at least 25
Black don’t crack baby
Africans don't crack lol 😂
You need glassez
Guys 32 isn't old tho.. your looks in mid twenties and thirties doesn't change much
Minnie, we miss you. Such a great tribute
At the part she sings "loving you, is easy...so easy baby..." I cried. Its something about that line. For someone who has endured pain, abuse, etc to hear that made me feel that loving me is easy and that I'm worth it. And that how people treated me is not a reflection of my worth but rather a reflection of their character. 🔥❤️😢🤧
My fav
Me too. It goes straight to your soul.
Oooo! Yes indeed! I felt that! ❤ That verse of the song...touched me too! 😢 🎯! Beautiful singer! 🎉 💐!
I love how she made this iconic song, that I've never heard anyone master, and made it her own. Wow. What an honor to Minnie Riperton, she would be proud!
Have you ever watched Gabriel Henrique’s cover of this song?? Well, you should!
She really did make it her own and she had the sweet face to go with the song.
Yes, Your Word. Chante Moore and Shanice Wilson.
now please watch back to the future it’s Michael J Fox, and Christopher Lloyd 😮
Hey Niall, watch back to the future the movie, Michael J Fox, and Christopher Lloyd
3:07 3:08
One of the cleanest whistle notes Ive heard. Amazing!
Niall was ready to risk it all.😅
She made Minnie song into her OWN!!! I’m in tearssssss
Yes❤
The way her body language on the stage, is so classy. Pure natural. We need to bring music back with her. Bring the power ballads of music back!
The fact that Minnie Riperton set the bar so high and she was able to come through with the vocals to capture the essence of this song is incredible ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Exactly. Minnie Rippleton is one of the hardest vocals to cover.
i like both. i saw Minnie on tv in the 1970s and ill never forget it. i feel like Minnie did it the best with more soul. that's just me. i still dig both.
@@christinacahill5742 I love Minnie best whistle tone in the game
She should win
@@christinacahill5742there with u. She did hit the whistles but the rest of the performance good as it was, just wasn’t saying Minnie to me. More of a MC with that range, whom I love also. Maybe I’m biased, cause I listen to this song daily though with my grandbaby. It’s our song❤
this has to hands down be the best audition of all time on any talent show. brought tears to my eyes
One of the best without a doubt
Her whistle voice is so smooth..
She's slaying, I thought she was in her 20's. Her voice is ethereal 😍
She shook me saying 32 I had to shake my head and go WHAT
@@kenderrickajones3609 Let's see how long she lasts on here.
@@kenderrickajones3609I am 30, a lot of us aren't aging quickly out here 😅
She doesn’t just do a whistle tone , she manages to go from it to her chest voice so smoothly and on her way down she hits every notes in the right way , I’m serious she should win for that only
Fact she can sing so INSANE
Literally this!!!!!!!!
Couldn’t agree more with you
i agree
I'm not much of a whistle tone fan; no wonder I enjoyed listening to her so much.
I simply can't believe what I just witnessed!!!!!! 😯
👏👏👏👏👏
She did that "BETTER" than anybody I've ever heard. Minnie would be have been blown away and so proud of this version of her song..... WOW!!
Can we talk about how crazy her control is in her whistle register??? Like sustaining those notes is already hard but the flexible riffs is a whole other level 🍷🔥
The tone of her voice is so gorgeous to me. I could listen to her sing for hours.
@cuchelo1 forreal!! It honestly gave me slight Aaliyah tonality especially when she flipped into her head voice
crazy the only person ive sene that agile in whistle register are mariah and gabriel henrique
Minnie she made you proud. You live on ❤
@@MicahDion Gabriel Henrique version is surely better and more "acrobatic" in the whistles....and moreover he is a man !!!
Sis stayed on key and switched 87 million times… damnn thats talent…
They made wrong decision to begin with the WINNER! after her performance, the competition is now OFFICIALLY CLOSED❤🎉
Damn! The dynamics! Not just the whistle but the whole package and control of her voice! She's gorgeous, and natural on stage! And the bass compliments with those high pitch runs.
32?! Where has this amazing talent been hiding? It’s unbelievable to me that she’s not already on the radio. Seriously! Like, yesterday lol
Couldn't agree with your comment more
( And Minnie Ripperton was only 31 when God took her, and that angelic voice to a higher level)
There's a TH-cam video with her performing this song somewhere 9 years ago! If the average person ever knew how hard it is to make it in the music biz.
Exactly. Gwen was correct when she stated that perfect/exceptional voices often go overlooked. Especially in our day. The best vocalists do not become the biggest stars. Jessie J and Samara Joy are two world class vocalists that can't fill a large venue or get a hit song. @@jonathanvijongarth
@@jonathanvijongarth I have it.. She is from Detroit and was a performer on my show , R&B Live Detroit.. Chechi always been that deal Her Part starts at 4:13.. Check the arrangement she used!!
th-cam.com/video/giTP87FD0fc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uMI7Nf-k6lcY14p5
@jonathanvijongarth not if you sell your soul.. then that is a hard life in the long run!
I’m sure Minnie Ripperton is smiling down from heaven! Come on whistle notes!
Absolutely! Chills ♥️
I thought this was a Mariah Carey song?
Wow!! Beautiful ❤
heaven I don't think so
@@dtyodeller "Lovin' You" was written by Minnie Riperton and her husband, Richard Rudolph, who also produced the song with Stevie Wonder. It was a massive hit for Riperton.
Every few seasons there's a mind-blowing performance. This is the one...
She made it look effortless
I can't count how many times I have replayed this performance. Mehn! So proud
Me too
The fact that she did that whistle note at the start of the performance is insane. And also, like John said, she has so much more than just the whistle tones. She has obviously worked on different areas of her voice. She should absolutely be in the final or even win.
She ate that song up!!!
I love how she didn't overdo it when she actually could. PHEW!!!!
Minnie Ripperton’s “Lovin’ You” was forever hers to own until this moment. Chechi’s cover knocked it out of the park. Bravo! ❤️
I’m in love
That’s a reach the girl can’t even sing
😅
She updated it for sure💯
Agreed 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️❤️
She has raised the bar... the whistle tone is out of this world❤❤❤
@NandiDingana-yz4qv she's raised no bars. Gabriel Henrique of Brazil is the whistle king of the world. Better than Mariah and his cover of this song blows hers away. Look up if unsure. No one will EVER sing it better than Gabriel.
that high note at the beginning sounds like an angel
No matter if she wins or not.. I want her to be crazy famous and appreciated worldwide for her talent 😍✌️
Her voice is so Angelic! If Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston had a Vocal Baby it Would be Her ! Amazing Vocalist !
And Ariana
+1.
My exact thoughts!!
@@lilachodan4941babe Ariana has nothing on Mimi and Whitney lol 😊
@@lilachodan4941s
The way Niall said 'oogghhhh' with his face he knew how beatiful her voice is. This is amazing performance 😍
I think she can teach every judge on this competition. Look, voice, style!!! Unreal!
The winner of the whole entire competition!! It's hers!! Anything less than her being the winner isn't fair!!
Gwen said exactly what she needed to do to move beyond herself. She is very wise judge of musicality on all the levels. Chechi's voice is so pretty.
YES! At first I thought she should work with John Legend but Gwen's words rang true!
MY GOD she brought tears to my eyes! I love Minnie Riperton and I have all of her albums and cried when she passed away. So this tribute from this young lady has really done a tremendous job!! Bravo, Bravo!!!
Wow I never heard anyone come close to Minnie Ripotin
God bless her going forward 🙏
This is THE VOICE. Period ❤. The face that Niall had when she hit that whistle tone 😅🤣. He looked like he had an outer body experience.
This woman is drop-dead gorgeous. She's amazingly talented and she's 32???? Why is she not famous already?
Honestly I feel that she may be stuck in a lane. I personally would not buy an album if all of her songs sounded like that. It would be boring eventually. My guess is that's why she's always been a backup singer. Hopefully she can learn to diversify.
most female's vocal prime are at 30.
She's black...they have to work 10x harder
Someone probably sand-bagged her to keep her for themselves ...
@@AbdulHadi-su9qi shut up
I literally cried that voice is HEAVEN sent❤
I just showed this to my dad who was a kid growing up when Minnie Ripperton introduced the world to that beautiful song and he got very emotional. WOW!!
Her chest voice, head voice and whistle register are equally tremendous. A star!!
I hear more of a falsetto especially at the beginning
her chest voice is jaw dropping as well
@@wole_walls Def a "soft" whistle at the very first notes; but her gorgeous falsetto facilitated most of the song. The perfect, concise, subtle but impactful runs...gorgeous too. A beautiful vocalist.
@@wole_wallsquelle est la définition du mot fausset en musique???
Her runs absolutely insane too
The competition is over. She is definitely the winner. Her abilities are so amazing and her love for music is outrageous to pick a song that besides Minnie is impossible. 💕💕💯💯
The best singer for the most part never ends up winning. It's always a country singer with an average voice.
I see her becoming the winner this season
Sweetness in her voice, richness of the tones of her voice and her gracefulness is at the another level. You can tell she is a genuine, humble and sweet person. You can tell she put in a lot of work into this performance and perfectly executed what she planned to accomplish. I really like her and want her to succeed!
I never thouth there would be another person on this earth that could match Mini. This young lady will be the one to watch. Just beautiful.
Her whistle tone is so smooth and clear that it doesn’t even feel like a whistle tone. Omg
This is probably what Heaven sounds like
Oh my God, she is not human, she is from heaven.
She song this so beautiful I’m teared up nobody else has ever made me do that
That was PHENOMENAL!!! It actually sounded like a sound that’s released. I would buy her album. Omg she is definitely a star.
Omg the number of times I've replayed this performance is unhealthy. How is it possible that the people who can actually sing are not even famous!
Gabriel Henrique hits those notes
Why am I in tears😢 THE BEST VOICE THUS FAR !!!!
I'm 59 years old, and my mother went to the same high school. Hyde Park Academy in Chicago. My mom said she was special in the talent shows.
That was CRAZY! Her whistle notes were perfection, easy, and effortless.
Yeah I tried and it felt insanely silly of me!! It's not as easy as she makes it seem. LOVE HER VOICE!!!
She was great. Let's see how long she lasts. She's really really great.
I’ve watched this an unhealthy number of times and I get goosebumps EVERYTIME !😩❤
So proud 🇳🇬
You're Not the only one my friend. She's soooo GOOD!
Me too 😂
Me too, Uchechi from Igbo tribe of 🇳🇬
Is she Nigerian?
@@elizabethonah-ox6jd Yes
It was the runs with the whistle notes. She's stunning too! It's like being wrapped in a warm blanket
Such a successful re-arrangement! She personalized the song and absolutely MURDERED it
As far as vocals and sense of style goes, she's like if Minnie Riperton and Selena Quintanilla were reincarnated into a single person!
Ooh!
Now I know you lyin
I love your comment!
Agreed
Dont forget Denise Williams
I heard moments where she channelled some of the greatest female singers of all time in the one song!!!! She needs to win.
I picked that up as well
Yes, of course the Minnie Riperton was in there, but I kept getting that Aaliyah vibe from her as well.
Brandy at 007 seconds
@@michaela1081Yes, and Aretha but she pulled back in went back into falsetto then her whistle register.
Whitney for sure in her airy tone!
God given talent! Her voice brought tears to my eyes🤍
One of the most beautiful covers I’ve heard in my life, her technical skills are incredible. This is what you call a VOCALIST darling
Maya Rudolph would be so pleased to hear the tribute you sung for her Mother. That has been a special song for many of us, we will always be in awe of her grace and beauty.
Absolutely
CHILLS!!! One of the most gorgeous auditions I've ever seen and listened!!! Chechi is a star in the making
Yup. Chills.
i agree
That performance was the definition of perfection.
THE voice. 🌬️
She looks like she walked out of a Prince video session.
She gives Apollonia vibes big time. ❤❤❤
Control over whistle register takes great practice, but pleasant whistle tone is a blessing. She’s got both 👏👏👏
I agree with Reba. She had this ethereal way with the movement of her arms and her bright smile. That in addition to her musical talent makes her a finalist to contend with.
Wow!!! Im speechless… she would make Minnie Ripperton proud!
The number of times I've watched this performance is so unhealthy. Gosh, i just fall in love with this lady, her voice, her charms, her beauty ....look at that smile 😍😍
Wow
The fact that she has those clear whistles without forcing it she went off
I'm old and know Lovin YOU by Minnie Riperton and I've never heard anyone hit that note like Minnie. Although there will never be another MINNIE. RIP MINNIE YOU ARE MISSED.❤❤❤❤
No one EVER until now!👏🏿👏🏿
I am in total agreement with you.
I come back to this at least once a week.. incredible
The fact she said she is 32 and Minnie died when she was 32 is crazy ! She embodied Minnie here
It’s unhealthy how many times I came back to watch this masterpiece :)
She did Minnie right. And her rendition of the song 🔥
Girl, I have little words! Your voice is truly a gift from the Most High.❤
Beautiful!
I have this performance on repeat but the whistle notes and sustained for that long 😳LOVE
She's from my home state of Michigan (she's from Pontiac, I'm from Detroit), and I've got a feeling she's gonna win 🏆 the competition. Her runs, stage presence, and control of her voice are absolutely amazing!
Tot she was a Nigerian
Uchechi😊
Yes, sweetie. Her parents are. She’s from Pontiac ❤
My home state too❤❤
Same! I see Aaliyah in her
Representing Michigan!(Clinton Township) but lived in the D until 14 years ago!
