spell check please


I noticed that too seeing as how revealing it is that they DONT listen to those artists since they cant even spell their names.

You people are nuts. Amel Larrieux is a MONSTER vocalist! Have any of you ever heard her live? She holds back sooo much on her records.
Do you people listen with your eyes or your ears? This Bria chick sounds nothing like Amel.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this: TECHNICALLY...Amel is a better vocalist than Sade. Now this is coming from one of the if not THE biggest Sade fan on the board. I have heard Amel do things with her voice that are nothing short of amazing. Now, tonewise, I prefer Sade by a longshot but speacking strictly on vocal ability, Amel is a monster. Bria is not. Amel's really a jazz singer masquerading as an R&B singer.
Bria is closer to Goapele as far as vocal ability goes but Goapele has way more R&B in her voice. You can hear pain, longing and desire in her voice. Bria's not bad but her voice lacks that "umph".
I can't believe the comparisons to Amel, though. Seriously. The only thing they have in common is "breathy" singing. That's where it ends.






I agree with you 100%

Amel has a vocal RANGE. And, I am a HUGE Sade fan to the point that I have been all up in Stuart Matthewman's (he is one of Sade's music producers and a talent that needs to be recognized! www.cottonbelly.com) myspace page and facebook page trying to get hints when Sade is about to release new material! I feel you.

I do love Sade but Amel pierced my heart to such a point that I have to have ALL released material of hers for her range is that amazing to me. However, I don't care for all of the background music production of some of her music endeavors. I feel that she needs to work with Stuart Matthewman for he can capture her raw talent. He produced two songs with her on it on Sweetback's first album:

Gaze - Sweetback featuring Amel Larrieux

You Will Rise - Sweetback featuring Amel Larrieux

On that note, Amel Larrieux is releasing new material on Tuesday, April 14 at iTunes see here

Sounds great so far!
Be glad and rejoice for the Lord has done marvelous things!
