If you're talking about female American singer, yes I do agree. But in my opinion the best voice I've heard alive atm is Dimash he's out of this world.
@@joaomiguel-ff6uo OMG I just went to listen to him he's really great! I mean they're completely different styles though so I'm not gonna compare, love them both
sorry but she is better than whitney. Yeah i understand whitney is a legend, but JHud is better in resonance, agility, range, pretty much everything, sorry to say because i know how legends are untouchable for many people but that doesnt mean no one can surpass them.
@ Vanessa Ruiz - I agree 100 % with you. Whitney is true legend and I very very love her, but Jennifer, objectively speaking, really outdid her. I would dare to say that she is also better fhan your own, so far unsurpassed musical spiritual mother, Aretha. Jennifer has a terribly firm, powerful, strongest voice with an incredibly wide range. This woman sings simply unbelievable!!!
@@vanessaruiz4705 nope. as someone who studies music, whitney is better. her lows are better, runs, her belts are more supported and her technique is perfect. that's why she is considered the best
Aretha did not want Jennifer to play her. She wanted Audra McDonald to play her. She was convinced by Clive Davis to endorse Jennifer, because that is what he wanted. And the bullshit below this comment about Aretha mentioning Jennifer in many interviews, is just that BULL.
Well A friend of Aretha said that she told her that she only wanted Jhud to play her and Aretha has mentioned Jennifer name as a candidate in many interviews and she chose her personally in the end honestly Jennifer is the best choice and Aretha worked with Jennifer on the biopic before she passed so she was happy with her choice she never said she didnt want Jennifer she was always an option when it came to who she wanted to portray only person Aretha said no to when brought up as an option was Queen Latifah
@@bobjacubas6818 Nah your comment is bullshit Aretha never said she didn't want Jennifer to portray her if she did I never seen the interview or whatever she said that on like I said there are plenty of interviews where she said she would consider Jennifer to portray her and Aretha had meetings with Jennifer about portraying her and so whatever the case was in the end she chose Jennifer that's it thats all even Aretha youngest son said his mom only wanted Jennifer to portray her he has no reason to lie that was his mother and plus a friend of Arethas just recently said the samething that Aretha told her she only wanted Jennifer to portray her so she has no reason to lie Aretha had spent alot of time with Jennifer before she passed to prepare her for the role and Aretha also said she was happy with the person she chose which is Jhud I'm glad she got the role she's gonna do great now your comment is bullshit mines has actual facts
Exactly! No running and jumping around. No kicking off shoes. No twerking or oversexualizing herself. No gimmicks, whatsoever. Just class, elegance, and an abundance of talent! I miss the days when this right here was the standard.
@@spanishlessons4075 Probably since nowadays you seldom hear singers who are like Mariah, Aretha, Whitney, and Celine. It's mostly singers who use *heavy* autotune and are deemed "talented" by my generation. Although there are people like Kelly Clarkson and Jojo, I can only assume that the original commenter meant that JHUD should've been born in Mariah's and Celine's time
2:44 One say: I't is impossible for Jennifer to go higher. Jennifer: Hold my hair bun... Aretha: Open the coffin, for God's sake... I need to watch this!!!
This is why the Queen Aretha Franklin chose Jennifer Hudson to play her in her new biopic coming out soon after a performance like that wow that's Aretha right there
Aretha Franklin didn't choose Jennifer, she was convinced by Clive Davis to endorse Hudson. Aretha wanted Audra McDonald to play her. Don't get things twisted, it was all Clive Davis's doing...not Aretha's !
@@ailinialofa1479 NP, I read a lot , and initialyl Clive Davis was not involved in the project. Aretha had wantred Audra from the inception. But once Clive got involved, he wanted Jennifer to do, near the end of her life, he had convince Aretha to endorse Jennifer. But the reality is, she wanted Audra, and relented because Clive Davis was going to have his way anyway.
@@bobjacubas6818 Its alguds mate thanks I was just going by what Jennifer Hudson said herself that Aretha asked her to play her no one else but its no big deal thanks for setting the story straight thats all I see you by your comments you do alot of research which is cool again thanks cheers 👍
Just watched some Audra clips. I can’t hear her as the kind of Soul singer that Aretha was. More musical theatre. Surprised that Aretha considered her. Jennifer has got IT.
The fact that she didn't even get a nomination for portraying Areatha Franklin should be a crime. She literally sang and played. No lipsyncing to a track
A dress and a microphone and a band is all this Girl needs to be the Voice of a generation... no auto no gimmicks just Pure unadulterated PASSION AND TALENT ... Jhud is the Voice .... #ClassAct
2:45 I can die now. I'm pretty sure there's nothing more glorious than the high note Ms. Hudson just hit like it was normal. I mean....COME ON!!! This Goddess can SANG!!!
And the most impressive is that she has all the package! Not only perfect vocal performance but also this contagious attitude on stage. She's definitely born for this. 😊
I appreciate this cover out of all the others. The fact she did it in the original key and maintain chest voice with accurate pitches for its entirety shows an impressive vocal range, use of techniques etc.
Anyone can have good vocals but what separates a good singer from a great singer is when they sing with soul and power!! And I don’t only hear what Jennifer is singing but I feel it in my soul !!!! It’s all about connection with the crowd and she never fails to do so🙌🏽☺️
I agree with the comments that she is the best of her generation and probably several before. When she opens her mouth to sing everyone smiles. I have yet to see a video where people aren't smiling. Even when she was a coach on the Voice, the other coaches would stop and listen, and start to smile whenever she started to sing. God has gifted this wonderful person with the gift of joy in music which she shares unconditionally and unselfishly with the world! I love her!
What a formidable figure in soul... or in any music genre. The ability to belt perfectly for 5 minutes straight???? Just how much cardio that woman's doing
Jennifer Hudson has developed so much since being on American Idol. I liked her then and I love her now. After Whitney Houston she is definitely the 2nd greatest singer ever. I feel so proud everytime she performs. This was exceptional performance...
I have watched this video so many times and have never commented on HOW AMAZING this tribute is. Truly the voice of a generation - there's no one like it today. You keep on slaying it J-Hud!
She has really created a buzz on this performance...it was still the time when the news about Aretha handpicked jhud to play her on her biopic was fresh yo everybody. I still remember after this performance someone uploaded this, and it reached 3.5 M views in just 1 month, but it was later deleted by youtube...and then we have this page reuploaded the performance that was little-zoomed so it will not be suited for copyright again.... so thank u to this page who took effort to reupload the performance, we can go back to this anytime we wanted to see jennifer's vocal prowess...
Jhudson shows to the world that she is one of the 21st century queen of soul.she does justice to every song that she takes on stage..she deserve respect in the music world
Nunca tanto respeto por una cantante tan tremenda, su vos es suprema y es quien para juzgar , tiene toda la idoneidad, y desde hoy la adoro , soy su fan
I love the huge smiles in the audience, everyone seems in awe of Jennifer... ❤️❤️❤️❤️ And props to the band and back-up singers for a stellar performance!
If I wouldn’t knew no better I would this this was the queen of soul Jennifer has an outstanding voice and always elegant sang sister sang when God gave out vocal cords he sure blessed you love it❤️
so do we confirm Jennifer Hudson is the princess of Soul?
THAT'S BEEN CONFIRMED LOOONG TIME ! NO QUESTIONS ASKED
Moment she stepped foot on american idol i seen that tiara
Doubtless
surely
Aretha The Queen Of Soul confirmed that the moment she gave Jennifer her blessing to play her!!!
I'm convinced she's one of the best singers alive, literally PERFECTTTT

Excited for the biopic. Hope J Hudson will do the queen of soul justice 😊
