Let’s also keep in mind that during this performance, Coko was still healing from having surgery on her stomach and she still killed it! What’s so crazy is that SWV never won any Grammys or any awards from those award shows in the 90’s, but yet their timeless classics are still being played on repeat 29 years later. Ain’t that something 🤦🏽‍♀️ I just want so much more for them, but they will soon get everything that they deserve and more!

@elijahsimpson4143 9 лет назад

The performance wasn't Patti's. It was K. Michelles & her team decided for Tamar & her to bring Patti just to show love & support for R&B & eachother. I'm sure it was Patti's decision to sing If Only You Knew. K. Michelle knows she doesn't have the range for the song so she sung what she could. I just wish everyone had a chance to shine for once.

@KrewTelevisionAuthentics 9 лет назад

Elijah Simpson I guess but if you can't sing a song right I feel you need to have a seat and stay in your lane. Patti LaBelle actually told Coko she comes the closest to her of anyone who has remade the song.

@elijahsimpson4143 9 лет назад

like I said this was K. MICHELLES performance. They asked her to perform. Regardless of who can sing it or not, be happy someone is up there still singing this song with a legend showing that R&B is still alive. She sung one line in the whole song I don't see what the problem is. Yall missed the whole point.

@KrewTelevisionAuthentics 9 лет назад

Elijah Simpson Nobody is missing anything. It was nice Patti came out since it is her song. So what if it was K. Michelle's performance she still sucked and sounded like a man. If people can't take criticism or heat get the hell out the kitchen. If you wanna hear her go to her video and not SWV's.

She sung more than previously thought but Coko's vocals were always prioritize. That was until Coko started to refuse to sing lead on everything. Listen to Lelee's part on 'When This Feeling' you will think it's Coko, but it's actually Lelee.
