...as i look @ my own comment somebody gave me 2 thumbs down. Well that tells me that they were only listening 2 the runs & not the song & the meaning behind the song. Just like when a Preacher preach. He does not have 2 b flipn over pews & sounding as if he has a frog in his throat 2 bring 4th the word. Just like this song. I want 2 b able 2 feel the song. This is a luv song 2 God not a "let me show off my talent 2 man" song.
I love my sister Nikki and no matter what anyone says or thinks, I will support her in EVERYTHING. The very ones that talked about her in a negative way is what elevated her from the get go so keep elevating her for those who are sitting at home wishing they were doing this. Take time to find out what God wants you to do. Selah and blessings to those that uplift each other up.
i think the wonderful thing about music is there is something for everyone. rather than knock her for being different and not the type of singer some of you would prefer, thank god for her doing something positive. and thank god that everyone doesn't sound the same and there are so many different singers with something unique to bring to the table.
thats what kills me...how we sometime can do so much and forget who we singing for and to! Lord always sing thru us so we can minister the way you would have us....i thank you lord for your gifts...she is awesome...be with her..every step of the way...in jesus name..amen
I have nothing against old school gospel.im sure it blessed sumbody. But if God has given u the ability to do sum beautiful things, and u use it for his glory and it is WHOLE HEARTED, why is it so hard to believe that a soul can be saved by it. Im not saying u have to do rifs and runs but thats how u bring different audiences to God. Theres a jazz player living in sin. Letting him listen to Nikki, could really be a blessing in his life. Whatever relates to people.We all serve one God.
esta mulher e não é deste mundo! simpesmente incrível ... só Deus pode você planejou, aqui no Brasil e não é bem conhecida, mas quando eu mostrei este vídeo para os meus amigos são loucos que são maravilhosos
And i dont even mean to compare, i was just giving my humble opinion as a student of music. I love both of them and appreciate their gifts and their just doing what the love to do. Nikki needs to be on the forefront, more then some of these others. I'm so tired of seeing and hearing her do back up, I'm praying she makes a cd asap. Nikki is that new math!
and you're absolutely right.... i dont know why we get so engrossed in comparing folks...Just let them be who God made them... God made Nikki...Nikki and he made karen...Karen.. So we just celebrate the gifts that God gave them
Nikki sing!!!!!!! & to all the people that are saying she does too much either cant't sing! Or can't do vocal runs or riffs can't even go up & down the scale correctly just saying Nikki is a anointed!!!! Vocalist/stylist in her own way even tho it's not about riffs & runs because I know great! Singers even in my own family of 8 that don't focus on runs & riffs at all but all about the anointing!!! That he or she carries & giving glory!! to god!!!
We are mostly used to a gift such as this in the world. Nikki can find a minor note when you thought there was none. To hear her live you will appreciate her anointing!! Some have a strong gift that leave you scratching your head. Darryl Coley is another good example. The things God allows him to do with his voice can leave U speechless. God has chosen to use such POWERFUL voices for HIS Glory & I am thankful!
For all the people that think they know everything this was the one she recorded on her ricky dillard album she wants it to sound like that dont listen to the runs listen to the message any real worshiper knows not to pay attention to just a person runs yeah it might throw a person off but thats the way she wants the song to sound. at least she keep the melody on top but flavored over it she has keyboard skills she know where to run and where not to
sum of us couldn't even sing thru a straw but we all have an opinion "SANG" Nikki Pooh felt the Annointing and the annointing makes the difference no matter what
No disrespect to anyone, but this maybe how the Lord laid it on her heart to deliver. How can we say how many riffs determines if the message in the song was presented correctly. I'm sure it helped out somebody, and probably got the attention of the person God directed it towards. Lets challenge false doctrines that dominate black churches instead of things that doesn't mean much. And yo, it's said in love. Be Blessed! 1
Nikki, you look and sound great! Of course you will have the nay sayers and of course, when they're NOT talking about you, that's when you want to be concerned. Love you chica!
I'm wondering what the sinner who stumbles across this video and watches it thinks? For some reason they don't seem to care about "issues" when the message of surrendering and deliverance is present. Matbe they know something we don't know...maybe they believe God can save or use ANYONE!
Holiness without which no man shall see the Lord. It does not matter what group you are with or who your pastor or Bishop is. Since His word is forever settled in Heaven there will be no changes to it or what God requires for holiness and righteous living. Judgmental has nothing to do with this.
i watch this everyday just for 6:45 she knows i stalk her...LOL Not the violent creepy type...just wanna be everywhere she sings...in person or youtube!! I'm doin pretty good so far!
put in these exact words to hear these terrific RU-vids: Danny Cross's Carol of the Bells. Danny Cross's God is Sovereign. Danny Cross's People Suffer Needlessly Danny Cross's His Eye is on the Sparrow
people can say whatever they want this is a performer... so because she is singing for God no one should say anything... please .. this girl wont be doing all that crazy running and riffs if she didn't know she was a performer ... grow up.
Well I know dis comment won't be popular cuz I see how some of da otha people got bashed...but she was doin wwaaayyyy to much for me...LOL!!! Nikki is an awesome singer & there's no disputing that!!! But all the runnin & "extra" stuff was too much!!! Take a lesson from our pioneers of the gospel, Mahalia Jackson, Albertina Walker & The Caravans, The Barrett Sisters, Rev. James Cleveland & so many others!!! Just stand flat-footed & sing the gospel & let the Lord take care of the rest naturally!!!
This is a beautiful song of surrender to God. It doesn't need all the rifts and runs. Not saying she's not anointed. Sometimes a song just needs to be simply song
The anointing is missing, I am not trying to be mean but it is the truth, She is really talented. I noticed in her videos that people are standing around waiting for her to do a nice run instead of worshiping.
learn to enjoy the moving of the Holy Spirit --Nikki is God's mouthpiece and is used to bring you into the moving of God's Spirit with signs and wonders. When you get in the Spirit of God and enter into the holiest of holies, you can appreciate and enjoy Nikki's singing. Nikki sings in the Holy Ghost with utterances, rifs, runs, unknown tongues Nikki allows the Spirit of God to lift you higher Nikki fully exercises her vocals in the Spirit of God for a perfect praise and gloriious worship.
