Music video by H.E.R., Chris Stapleton performing Hold On (2021 CMT Music Awards). (C) 2021 RCA Records, a division of Sony Music Entertainment vevo.ly/xr5yU5
I have never seen him so happy to sing with someone. You can tell he admires her so much. He usually doesn't look at anyone when he sings, and looks quite serious, here he really looked at her with so much admiration and respect and joy
Can we just take a moment to thank H.E.R. for fully embracing her musical genius, and not allowing anyone or anything to put her in an unrealistic mold. Thank you H.E.R.!!! Side note: I'm praying for the sad individuals that gave this video a thumbs down. Your ear for *good* music will bud one day...
Her is also a piano player and drummer plus she says she’s played a little sax, violin and is learning the upright bass. As a hip hop head I always thought Stapleton was a once in a generation voice. Tennessee Whiskey spanned all genres these 2 are the best representation of talent out here
She was a child prodigy. Absolutely stunning talent. And she's so young. This girl is like early 20s, maybe mid 20s by now. But OMG. Imagine the future music she holds within HER...
Hold on now. Chris Stapleton, I know. WHO is this young woman with the soulful voice, and the killer guitar moves?? How have I never come across her before? Old lady country fan here. This young woman is extraordinary! 💜
Yes, her stage name is H.E.R, and she is one talented young lady! She's even picked up an Oscar in addition to music awards. She plays piano and percussion as well.
DAYUMMMM they did that!!! He brought the raspy masculine edgy vocals and H.E.R of course came with that buttermilk smooth soul! This was a dope combination. I legit have goosebumps 😍😍😍💯💯💯
Have to admit, I've never paid much attention to H.E.R., but damn, they sound good together! And she's got that guitar cranked up. You can literally hear it crackling! Stapleton is always awesome, no matter what he sings.
When they get to Chris’s part and harmonize “how do get somewhere comfortable…” and then H.E.R sings.. that is some of the most beautiful singing I have ever heard in my entire life and this is by far my fav collab EVER because it is just that beautiful

Who can H.E.R. not sing and play with? Image of Prince was still with us and they did a duet together, not only their vocals not those guitars together WOW!
That's what an audience is supposed to sound like when there's magic happening in the room! I LOVE THIS. This isn't an award's show performance, it's better, this is the best act in a long time on a Saturday night.
I was crying like a betch watching this live and I’m crying with goosebumps watching here again. They took me off this planet. The musical chemistry is so palpable it moved me man. Damn. DAMN.
That's so sweet of you to say Amanda 🤠. Well thanks once again for the love and support you've shown towards my music career 😉 it really means a lot, I'm so overwhelmed🤠 may I know how long you’ve been a fan of my music 🎶
is there anyone Chris can't harmonize with? my god. the harmonies on Hold On chorus is just spine-tingling. i dont know if this is country duets of old or if this an R&B/Blues thing. either its catchy AF.
This was an incredible collaboration. The track is originally by H.E.R. but Chris Stapleton definitely added something to it. They both brought raspy and rythmic heat on this. Real music is real music. Genres can't contain this version of the song. Respect

Stuff like this not only reminds me that my love for music is absolute, but it also shows, in gloriously raw emotion, how powerful music can be. Why, you may ask, is music is so important? Well imaginary hypothetical person, I'm so glad you ask . . . . as music is 'THE PANACEA FOR THE HUMAN CONDITION,' it's priceless. It's the 'ELIXIR FOR THE SOUL,' if you will (or even if you won't 😉). This kicked me right square in the feels! Love it! That's quite enough out of me . . . . be safe everyone!!
Wow just wow! Unbelievable harmonies and the guitar solos were amazing. H.E.R. is so incredibly talented and she totally channeled Prince on this duet. What a fantastic collab! 💕
My goodness. I don't know how this talented young lady and this song was not on my radar before, but holy cow!!! Stapleton is already a living legend. THIS duet, along with his J.T. duet a few years back.....oh my.
The joy and beauty in this performance! You can tell that both of them were so happy to see and hear thier partner's talent. That's what make this soo good

My love of music lives outside the box always. I imagined this collab years ago. It’s like finally finding that illusive itch and getting that toe-curling scratch. THIS is BEAUTIFUL fucking MUSICAL GENIUS!!!! OooooooFFFFF!!!
Ok I’m back here again. I’m SO in love with this collaboration-it just speaks to my very soul! I have searched both artists on Apple Music just praying one of them put it out but can’t find it. Would give anything to be able to put it on a playlist! I have it saved here in my RU-vid so I can return to it once a day. Honest to God, I hope these two do another collaboration in the future because I would purchase an album of nothing but duos with these two beautifully fabulous artists!!! 🙏💚🙏💚👏👏👏🙏💚🙏💚
Pretty sure my face just melted off . . . . Yup, that was definitely an exercise in face-meltingly epic goodness!! It's always amazing to watch H.E.R. and her Strat meld into a single being of pure, unadulterated emotional bliss. Chris absolutely nailed it too!! These two have an amazing contrast in their styles, yet they sound absolutely phan-fukin-tastic together! Very cool! So glad I caught this! H.E.R. & Chris, y'all absolutely killed it!! Can't wait to hear what's next!!
Amazing seeing two completely different artist on the exact same wavelength.. also Chris was really enjoying this performance and that’s kinda rare. This was special.
Chris Stapleton is hands down in the top 10 best singers EVER. He is amazing! His range is phenomenal. Hitting the high notes with HER sends chills down my back. Love Him! Now a fan of HER as well

@@chrisstapleton2054I first saw you on the 50th CMA Awards. I remember thinking. "Why in the Hell did they let JT have so much time when we just wanted to hear and see Chris ?" I hope I am not being scammed by a Chris wannabe :) I am a woman who loves most music but really appreciates your amazing talent. I wish you and your family much love and good health.
FINALLY! A beautiful crazy talented girl keeping with all her clothes on, and proving you don't need dancers and rappers to entertain. When your good you need nothing. And of course Stapleton is a God Chris is the most amazing versatile singer of this generation. There is no genre his voice doesn't fit. But H.E.R is a goddess, her voice is gorgeous and her guitar skills are amazing. This is EXACTLY how an amazing collaboration is supposed to sound.
When you have an artist with Chris' longstanding acclaim (way before his breakout) in the country music world seeking out H.E.R. because he knows her greatness it tells you all you need to know. Great artists (regardless of Genre) seek out other great artists. This is a classic case of two great ones collaborating and making some magical for us to enjoy for years to come.
Queen Gabriella is always an incredibly multitalented goddess at any place that she goes. Lovely singing and excellent guitar playing!! Spectacular performance as usual!! 🎸🎶♥️☺️👏🏽
How am I just seeing this now. I have played HER music for my daughter since she was born 2 years ago. In hopes she will follow her lead and learn guitar, and change peoples hearts.
This is perfection , I can see why they sang together….H.e.r is literally a musician she plays damn near every instrument 🙌🏾💜💜💜 I hope she does more music like this
This is low-key one of the greatest song collabs I've heard in recent memory. 🙌 Simple. Soulful. Great chorus. I can totally picture this song being the title track of a massive movie hit. 🎬
You just have some people that refuse to believe how Country and soul are so closely linked. They Regan types that somehow feel black soul music isn't American.
I'm a 63y/o blondey-rapidly-going white Sarf London gal....who, in another life, wants to come back able to play a guitar like H.E.R...oh, and be able to sing! Instead, I watch this and anyone else who takes my fancy and listen to some fine musicians who remind me that I'm ONLY 63 and not 103!! First gig: 1974,Rod Stewart & The Faces,Lewisham Odeon, London SE10. As nearly 14y/olds, my mates were getting hysterical over the Bay City Rollers, The Osmonds & David Cassidy. Me...ftom the age of 11 I was raiding my next-sister-up's very eclectic music collection and listening to loafs of Ska, Free, Cream, a bit of Pink Floyd, any old Blues etc😂. Thank You sis. ❤
I've known of Chris Stapleton and what he could do but not of this girl. She's special! That voice, that range and control, that efortless performance while making the guitar literally sing at the same time, wow, superb! This one was an earjoy and an emotional journey. Keep up the great work and keep these gems coming, Gabriella! And that nice hair, reminding you of Diana Ross. :) Kudos to the band and the choirs, they're some great musicians and singers as well.
