- Part one of an interview on BET's Videosoul. Phyllis and Lonnie were promoting a song they did together called Obsession. As far as I can tell no one has posted this yet on youtube. I may be wrong of course.

This woman could sing. Notice how she just jumped into the song without any warm up!
Exactly real singers just jump right into it I seen Chaka Howard Hewett Jennifer Hudson Kenny latimore etc.
That's how you know someone can really sing. She just belted out the song like it was nothing. No lip-synching or studio equipment, just raw talent and a beautiful voice.
Yes and In Perfect pitch
They're great vocalist, but Phyllis' tone made her so supreme.
she was so charming and lovely...very inspiring artist

Phyllis' tone is tight....Wow, How great thou art!
***** this lady was a real singer not like todays artist she can sang not sing but sang
Had the honor and pleasure of meeting her
She was so warm and kind to
My mom and I. She even invited us to a party. That few moments of meeting her will never leave me❤
It's no way you can give that much of yourself and sing about that much pain and not internalize a part of that pain . My prayer is that Pepper found the peace in death that alluded her in life. Thanks for posting.
DC from the chi: Phyllis was probably one of the top Sangers not singer's of all time, just pure skills and a natural gift in which she knew she had and was able to articulate it in a way that no one has been able to match since. After watching the TH-cam interviews I fell in love with the lady and I'm not that kind of a man to follow people like that but man after listening to her speak she was everyday people
always kept 100 before the term 100 was invented. A true sista in every since of the word, I put her in the Billie Holiday,Nina Simone, Patti Labelle,category and so on but truly one of the greatest of all time who died of a broken heart. I miss you baby cause you know how to love me!
she a *SANGER* that's for sure. Her interviews are just as captivating as her music.
Wow its 2023 and im 24 watching this legend. Trust me she lives on.
She is such a class act. The way she just start singing spontaneously. She's a legend.
She was the greatest. How many can whistle like her? I am country, and I cannot.
The greatest singer of all time.
Omg that voice. Would've loved the chance to see her live. Of all the artists I've seen perform live, I never got to see her. R.I.P. Phyllis Hyman.
Pure magic.
Phyllls is still missed and it is a crime that Lonnie hasn't recorded in decades.Unfortunately, genuine musical talent is not always a prerequisite for a contract these days.
How do you know you can sing? Your ass doesn't need a warm-up and sounds like she does. That's how. HOLY CRAP! She was amazing. And she did 120 shows a year and still sounded great. Control. Power. Soul. Depth. Emotion. The whole package. RIP Phylis. You are missed.
That skill set you've listed separates the bubble gum kids from actual SINGERS who know how to sing FLAT FOOTED.
What a memorable interview portraying two icons
Phyllis was So deep She’d be one year older than me now I’m 71. I
feel her pain deeply. May she be so
happy & her soul has found peace
in Eternity. Thank you For sharing
your talent & beauty inside & out
Phyllis. Until we meet again...
“Angel Bella”...🎵🎹🌹 🌟🎤❤️
Omg I adore everything about her, from talking to singing, just like that so effortlessly, amazing such a powerhouse woman.
When ever I see a list of the best singers and Phyllis is not on that list, it just becomes a popularity list, not a talent list. She was not joking about the shoes. Once she kicks them off, hold on to your heart. One of the best live singers I ever saw. Lonnie is in a very small class of individuals who created music that didn't exist before. Saw him back in the earky 80's with Roy Ayers and Tom Browne. The three of them took fazz fusion to another level. Like Lonnie, Roy's music was thought provoking and you could also get your grove on. Tom's, "Funkin For Jamaica", was and is one of the most recognized songs by Funk, Jazz and RnB fans. There are so many musical layers to that song, it's almost a shame to label it by any one genre. The 70's had some Great music changing Artist in it, that covered the spectrum of all music. RIP Phyllis.
She sure IS on the TOP LIST !!!!
it's 2016 and Donnie's jacket is STILL fresh as fuck
Of all the female artists I have loved and admired, Ms. Hyman, will always remind me of Billie Holiday. As an artist and the tragedy of her life and death.
I agree
how miss phyllis die?
I literally had the same thought watching this video “holy crap this is the reincarnation of Billie Holiday”
THIS BEAUTIFUL GAL SUPPOSE TO STILL BE HERE WOW RIP MY PHYLLIS HYMAN RIP STANDS FOR REPLACEMENT ISN'T POSSIBLE U ALREADY KNOW THERE WILL NEVER EVER BE ANOTHER PHYLLIS! ❤❤💚💜💙💛🌺🌹🌹🌺🍀🌸🌸💐💐🐶🐶🐶🎃🎃🎃🎃🐝🐝🐝
I just love this woman and I want everybody to know just how much I do love her. For as long as Phyllis has been around, that's how long I have been listening to her and also being a great fan of hers. I will always remember you Phyllis, and wish you were still here with us, but in my hear you shall always be there. A very dedicated fan for life. Beautiful, talented. and oh, such an angelic voice. RIP, and I hope you get the long waited for rest and love you have been looking for all your life. LOve you always.
Same here. When I hear he voice it touches my heart. She is missed on a daily basis. Rest in power Sis.
Phyllis Hyman had a great voice and I remember watch this show BET video soul when I was in College in the early 90s
Now we got viacom buying up television network so called reality shows
Such a smart and spiritual woman. Too bad she was in a place she couldn't digest her own medicine.
The vocals are slamming. No auto tunes here baby.
Queen you are gone but definitely not forgotten 🕊🕊
omg this kills me 2 watch cuz she talks about the drug analogy in "obsession" which mirrored her real life and the fact that she was engaged im like dang wat happend w/that but I love her in interviews cuz she was so funny...thank u lowando 4 sharing this
Her voice is like Marvin's. Haunting and beautiful
Damn she was telling alot about what she was going through at the first 25 secs of the video
Obsession is my favorite song by Phyllis Hyman song! Very underrated classic! She’s still loved all over the globe! Incomparable & legendary chanteuse!
Unbelievable voice of an angle.
The late "GREAT" Phyllis Hyman 😍
I miss her light, RIP Phyllis
RIP MY SEXY PHYLLIS RIP STANDS FOR REPLACEMENT ISN'T POSSIBLE U ALREADY KNOW PHYLLIS🌹🌹🌺🐝🐝🌸🌸🌸💐💐🎃🎃❤
Truly missed!❤
Gone but never forgotten!!
She Can "SANG"🥀🦋🌼🌳🌺
I can imagine Prince batting his eyes and saying "Lust Phyllis..." then making his Prince sound.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
RIP Queen Phyllis 🙏🏿🕊️
The musician never gets the credit he deserves. The great Lonnie Liston Smith!!!
❤❤❤❤❤...love her so much. Rest in peace my sista
R.I.P Queen. Phyllis
The songbird of Steeler Nation...
Radical, Lowando!!!! I've been looking for this footage (and waiting for this footage) forever!!!!! Thanks so much for posting it! Phyllis had such a wonderful speaking voice, if I could, I would listen to her interviews all day. Lonnie Liston was surely doing his thing on that piano too. :0) Donnie Simpson was so cute when he interviewed, I miss Video Soul. :0( Phyllis was definitely a charismatic person. :0) Thanks so much again for posting!!!!
Phyllis was before my time but I learned so much about her and as an artist I studied her voice and artistry. She was also very classy reminds me a lot of my grandma talk curvy and beautiful 😍
she had a beautiful soul . rip angel 💕
she was down to earth and real..cant imagine anyone breaking a heart like hers..wish she was still here to bring back love from all the hate in the world now.
YES !!! BEAUTIFUL RAW TALENT
Star flower by Jean Carne and Lonnie Liston Smith was one of the best song on that album "Love Goddess".
Loved that song too. Got a lot of airplay in Detroit at the time.
Thank you for this cut very touching wow she will be missed.
Miss Janae89Vidz, I AGREE (smile), I Miss that era of BET; When BET was the network to watch. I like it now,but back then I used to stay up all nite watching Video Soul and Video Vibrations. When my Poop used to record the music videos(smile) so we could watch them later(smile).
Oh Lowando I heart you. This made my heart smile. Pepper always fierce and honest.
Damn I miss Phyllis Hyman RIP.
Thanks for this post. I've seen this before but I don't know if it was TH-cam. PH was in her element - on point, introspective, and seemingly sober. I love her and miss her dearly.
Thank you lowando for sharing your videos. More people can now enjoy her talents who were not able to see her when she was alive. Truly Appreciated. :) Rest In Peace Ms. Phyllis.
Is the music Lonnie's playing while Phyllis is taking an actual released piece ??? It's unbelievable
It was epic
@@TLT1986b Absolutely Marcus, Lonnie is playing in A flat Major. I had to figure it out.
one of my favourites
We miss you Miss Phyllis Hyman rest in peace, amen
The greatest vocalist then and now.....
Oooh man I only started listen to her music in early 2000 ,and I'm young person but it feels like I was there in her prime time ooh man what a voice beautiful person inside out .
Phyllis hyman could sing the yellow pages...for those who know know...yessss periodt 👑💜
Thank you so much for sharing this , Thank You !
Prince is at home saying "That'll work!" Those two divas would NEVER work! Lol
The greatest vocalist of all time.
There are no words 😢 👑
I'm Jealous of any and errabody who got to hear her live,got to meet her! Ms. Hyman is a Goddess! Goddesses bless us with their presence, then move on to the next dimension.
I would’ve had love to seen her live 🥰🥰 I was a toddler when she passed 😩
Yassssa Lady Yaaassssa

This is why she is my idol!
God Bless Phyllis Hyman it was today in 1995 one of the greatest vocalists of all time Passed. She is missed on this day and every day R.I.P the legend Phyllis Hyman.
Like most true entertainers she became for me bigger in death than in life I really wish that this beautiful statuesque classy lady could found some kind of security in her love life if she could have had happiness in and true love in her personal life i truely believe ahe would still be here
I believe this Lovely black queen died from lonliness Listen to her last recording I refuse to be lonely it is so heart felt from her soul .
RIP queen
I agree I Refuse to be Lonely and Meet me on the Moon
Gratitude
Thanks, all!
RIP I miss her. I was about 12 when this song came out. That said, I played the living shit out of this song, as if I knew what she was talking about.
When The Apollo, and shoelessness were mentioned, my heart broke.😔
What a beautiful woman
She's a Grand Lady. Troubled life.
I had a 30yr. Addiction 2 cocaine & crack.
I made been clear 4 20yrs. Love her sound.
Minister Benjamin L Lewis
I used to be in love with Donnie Simpson thought so anyway. He's very special.
She is SO Damn Good .... xoxoxo
Not to burst your bubble, but the interviewer is the famous Donnie Simpson from BET on Video Soul and the pianist is Lonnie Liston Smith, just making it right, so the right credit goes to the right people, thank u for making this available, may Phyllis always R.I.H. nd so dearly missed, love u a fan ♡♡♡
bonnie smartt clearly they be is reviewing Phyllis and Lonnie which is what the title says.
Love IS A LOSING GAME. For sure.
🌹💖🌹🎶🎶🎶
I can’t find this song on Spotify.
@stanleyballard I know she was married in the early 80s,but this is after that marraige had ended. She talks about being engaged but she never says who she was engaged to.I never heard about her and Christopher Williams,thats a shock to me.. (wow)
she was so funny :))
Does anybody have a copy of her Living in Confusion music video? Copyright, unfortunately, took it done ugh
