LALAH HATHAWAY & SNARKY PUPPY x SOMETHING / Voice Teacher Analyzes 

Oh, this is the one. My favorite thing is watching the band watch her. Their enchantment turns into marvel, and it’s so cool to see ‘cause we’re all right there with them.

She sounds EXACTLY like her dad in her lower register. Looove her❤️❤️❤️

Ironically just watched her explain her ability to “do the thing” on the Terrell show and your explanation is close to what she’s learned about it😀

Lalah Hathaway is a beast. I've been rocking with her since "Baby Don't Cry", written by the wonderful Angela Winbush.

When you said Michelle Ferrell you took the words right out of my mouth! Most people don't even know who she is! Rachelle Ferrell she is a Musical Genius at this type of scatting! Well done young man.

This is the one that gives me chills. I cannot say how many times I have watched this video. Loveeeeee her.

I love how her voice is her own instrument. Beautiful.

Her voice is like a velvet blanket you can rap yourself in to warm and shield you from the cold.

I hollered when you said, "I DON'T KNOW!" I love you for that! Some things can be explained, others are simply enjoyed! I love your videos!

As a worship leader, you’ve taught me so much about vocal control and using different parts of my voice. Vocal preservation is a must in gospel music, but not taught about! I honor you for all you do🤍

She does this version of Forever for always for love and her tone and runs on the break down are astronomical Lala is the TONE Bank

You had me at LALAH! ❤️ Her voice is a like a hug from the Lord! #Hammercy

She's underrated just like her father!

Yaaaas!! BEFORE I even watch, I'm commenting!! She performed live at my Alma Mater, Alabama A&M University, and when she did the "throat singing" everyone went WILD!

After a stress-filled day, I find her singing voice to be smooth & relaxing.

this was SOMETHING!! Her voice, the band, the EXCELLENCE👏🏽

It’s called polyphonic, overtone singing. There’s a variety of techniques you can use. Learning about overtones helps first. So you can begin to accentuate different pitches on a particular note. Then you you use your vowel shape, vocal folds and surroundings soft tissues, and musculature to “obstruct” the sound to make intentional pitch changes. You can hold the dominate and move the overtone or move the dominate and maintain the overtone. Here’s a video of a lady doing it beautifully. I will say incorporating in performance is an added skill on top of being able to produce the technique to make the sound. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vC9Qh709gas.html

As a visual learner, I completely OVERSTOOD Everything you said about polyphonic singing. Well said❤️

"Let the mic do its job." I love this!!

What I love about this is that she treats her voice as another instrument.

This woman’s gift!! Every time I see this performance I’m more amazed. 😍

She has a voice like butter just like her dad.

This performance was so wild!! Lallah is such a unbelievable tactician & performer. So great!

From what I’ve seen from other comments, she is hitting CHORDS, with her voice. Literally crying rn.

Jaron-Tones!! Ok i see you!! I am honored!! Now let’s talk about Ms Layaah!! She is hands down the best artist in the world!! On the Terrell show she explains how she does this. Awesome thank you

She’s my favorite artist. I saw her in Dallas and my instant thought was she is an instrument. She was so present in the room. Her music has so much range and feeling. Just an amazing soul, talent and gift to this world. She asked people to please put their phones down so everyone could just experience those moments. Perfection⭐️

This is out of this world. I have seen it a gazillion times and I’m always mesmerized. As out of this world Lalah’s polyphonic singing is, I saw Bobby McFerrin do it in a live version of the song “Drive” and it was unworldly. Here, Lalah sustains the notes. But Bobby actually moved the notes while using his body to play his own rhythm. I damn near jumped out of my skin!!! I’ve actually done it several times involuntarily if I sing when first wake up but like you said, I have no idea how I did it 😂. But watching Lalah being intentional with it is a pure gift and Bobby, whew, he is just on another level altogether 🙌🏽🔥

WOW!!! I’m in complete awe of her!! Her musicality is “out of this world”❤️❤️🎶🎵🎤🎙

Omg, I've been waiting for someone to do a video on this performance. She is soooooo amazing! Love this performance!!!

This is my favorite performance of Lalah Hathaway with Snarky Puppy🤩

My goodness!! Lalah!!! Jaron!!! Y'all sho'nuff can SANG!!! Mmm! God's blessings shower down on you, your family, and your brand continually in abundance 💜☦🕊🥰💖

She and Rochelle Farrell are always the first names to come out my mouth when the best female vocalist convo arises. Deborah Cox is another underrated singer. I find it interesting how most of the time people tend to think of those who start high and stay high as the best. Regardless of singers who have a wider range, esp the lower registers and richer tones. My ear prefers the later. But that's also my sweet spot when I sing :) so im probably biased.

Love Lalah's voice🌹👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

One of my favorite live performances! Reading your caption, we see you knew what we wanted to get your reaction to!

She’s a vocal beast !!! Period

It’s the I know y’all have been waiting for me to get to this and idk!! The way I hollered!!! It’s the genuineness, transparency and professionalism you give to us every single time, but then literally explains the technical thing that it is!!! I LOVE YOU!!!! Forever follower!!!

Finally!! Somebody besides me is totally in love with video!!! I found it four years ago!! Awesome!!!

An incredible performance by an incredible vocalist!

Lalah had a excellent Blue Print, Road Map on Singing and Using her voice so uniquely her Father was a Master❤️ Watching this always Makes me Happy😊

Lalah is a vocal beast. Period. Point.Blank. This is off topic but can I request you do Angela Winbush’s “Angel”? I know that song is an oldie but what she does vocally would be so cool to hear you analyze it. 😀

Watch the Terrell Show that she was on and she explains medically and physically how she is capable of making that sound

You explained her self harmonizing exactly how she explained it on the Terrell show....

that tingly excited feeling you're getting is how I feel all the time listening to Lalah

This song is from her first project & it jams from front to back.❤

Snarky Puppy...one of my top favorite bands! Lailah Hathaway...one of the greatest vocalists of our time! Period! Jaron...genius sir! Pure genius!!!

This band has been one of my favorites for YEARS. They all are seriously some of the best musicians out there. And Lalah Hathaway… oh my oh my. Just makes you melt. Such an amazing recording

Oh yeaaaa…..you finally got to this one! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Lalah and Snarky Puppy are amazing on this one! And Lalah is actually just on another plain on this one…smh.

First off, thank you for doing an analysis on Lalah Hathaway x Snarky Puppy. Lalah is out of this world and Snarky Puppy is phenomenal as well! Second, your analysis and your singing are incredible! I'm hearing you do Lalah's runs and scats and I'm like "what planet is Jaron from?!" You're unbelievable! Thank you for sharing your gift and your expertise.

This performance is legendary. Thank you so Much for this.

That note where she sounds like a car horn or train horn reminds me of when Chante Moore started doing her whistle note & u can hear the air at the start.

Another one I been wanting you to do yessss😩

Finally. My faves Ms. Hathaway & The Pups

I absolutely love Lalah Hathaway!

Have you seen her perform Sade’s Cherish the Day with Robert Glasper? I think it’s another masterpiece worth reviewing! 😀

And can we give it up for the freaking BAND!!!!!! Them boys BAAAD!!!!!!!!

I couldn't click on this video fast enough! Oh how I love me some Lalah her voice is like warmed butter! Thank you for this video Jaron!

This Polyphonic singing thing is indeed a phenomenal. I've got a friend who can do this and is such a beauty.

Overtones are magical, as instrumentalists it's very hard to do. For her to be singing it is next level greatness.

The band are outstanding but they are in the presence of greatness. Lalah is a supremely talent and vocalist. Her voice is so captivating

1 of my favorite Layla renditions Love me some Layla Hathaway From the beginning BROUGHT her first album at the tender age of 13 got the cassette tape & was in L😍VE IM Coming back is still 1 of my All time favorite songs ever RECORDED And when I heard her and VESTA Williams sing that very same song WITNESSED the only other singer who could probably not only sang it but could possibly JUST POSSIBLY EVEN DO IT BETTER . NEVER TAKING ANYTHING AWAY FROM MY GIRL LAYLA SHE IS A MASTER AT THIS THANG WE CALL SANGING ITS IN HER BLOOD & DNA PERIOD . BUT THEN AGAIN THIS IS VESTA WILLIAMS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A SONG BIRD IN HER VERY OWN RIGHT TOO... THEY BOTH DID THE DAMN THANG & I WAS HONORED TO WITNESS IT....SING ON SONG BIRD🕊 LAYLA.... AND MAY VESTA REST IN PARADISE 🙏🏽🕊

Lalah is my favorite of all time!!!!

Ahhh. When you started explaining her polyphonic method, it made me think of the sound of bagpipes, and how they might work. 🤷🏽‍♀️

This video is unmatched and it never gets old.

Yeeeees❤️ could you do Hiatus Kaiyote/Nai Palm 😁

JAAARRRRONNNNNN... YOU KNOW YOU "WRONG" (MEANING RIGHT)....I SAW THE THUMBNAIL & I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE SONG .. THIS WAS ACTUALLY THE SONG THAT INTRODUCED ME TO LALAH HATHAWAY

I love Lalah Hathaway....her voice is just *chef's kiss* magical!

Please analyze Lalah and B.Slade's performance of Janet Jackson's - "I Get So Lonely"

My favorite female vocalist of all time!❤❤❤

7:38 i needed that :,) and just another note-- I ADORE seeing the band jam out to the singer they're playing with! it's so sweet to see them like "okay girl!!" or do that stank face 😭🤚🏾

The most beautiful sounding vocalist alive rn to me. Tysm for this.

Her voice is so pure and smooth like silk! The end part of the video where her voice went high and hit that supernatual note sent me into the sky! I can listen to her all day everyday! 😌 💕 💓 😍 💗 💖

Yesssss I've been waiting on you to do this video of hers!!! #history

I love this song!!! I’m so glad you choose to critique this amazing phenomenon.

I love Rochelle. I always wished I could scat like her. Lalah is another fav when it comes to it.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Phenomenal !!!! OMG!! I had Lalah's debut album on cassette with this track on it back in the 90's. I had this song on repeat for about 2 months listening to NOTHING else (except other tracks on this album). I LOVE LOVE me some Lalah. Since you seem to be reading my mind for FAVS.... Can we give a listen to Amel Larrieux next????

THANK YOU!! Finally.

Since I heard you say you love the deeper voices, what about analyzing Phyllis Hyman! Beautiful voice! Gone too soon!

She and Snarky Puppy won a Grammy for this song, I love her.

Her triple voice is INCREDIBLE!! It does sounds like there is air flow coming from more than one area lol

It’s the I DONT KNOW for me lol 😂

THIS ANALYSIS/REACTION JUST MADE MY DAY I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE AND YOU TOO AND I’M AN ARTIST . So happy to see this

Lalah Hathaway has a voice like warm chocolate. I absolutely adore her. Please do more analysis on her vocals... Please!

One of my favorite moments in music

Jaron, please do some of Rachelle Ferrell…PLEASE!!

Gotta do one on my favorite singer Eric Roberson please, he actually has a duet with Layla.

Wow! Never heard another like that before. That's amazing!

I absolutely love her! Thank you for covering this. ❤️

Incredible! Thank you for this superior music class and your x-ray ears.

I love me some Lalah Hathaway. I love Donnie I’m from Ohio. I remember when she was being prepped by her father to sing. She’s awesome. Give me more updates on Layla I wish and hope that she will perform here in Atlanta where I presently live

Her father is the LEGENDARY DONNIE HALTAWAY her mother is and acclaimed OPERA singer, yes she is more then a Magnificent singer WOW,WOW AMAZING.

I am so glad there's research on this throat singing technique😍...Been messing it up since I've seen this years ago🤣🤦 THANKS FOR POSTING🎯

So happy you covered this! I love this song so much!!!! Great coverage.

I’ve seen Lalah live twice both times were amazing. She is such an amazing and skilled singer. She knows her voice inside and out.

Just found your channel, I’m hooked!!

I’m a new subscriber when I 1st saw one of ur videos it threw me off when u would jump in during the singing because I wanted to hear the entire song w/o interruption but now I have a whole new respect for ur artistry and I love that you explain what is going on with the vocal ranges that the different artist use your expertise is why you are the best at what you do. You have a God given gift for real music and your voice is amazing and I love it. Lalah will be coming to my city soon and I can’t wait to see her in concert. Thank you and keep doing these videos. I look forward to the next one. 😄

Yes yes yes finally!!! I loved everything about this video, song, band and of course Miss Lalah

Omg I have been waiting for this one!!! Come through!!!

The beginning of the video is the part I couldn't wait for you to react to.

Yes yes....your analysis proves my theory that Lalah is an ALIEN chile! 🤣 I was blessed to see her live and she leaves you in awe. Thanks for the hypotheis on that multi-note thing she does here. ❤️
