LeeLee came to eat at my old job in Atlanta, I was a host..keep in mind it wasn’t my best day. She literally came back to the host stand and had a decent 10 minute conversation with me before she went to her table and on the way out she told me to keep my head up…ofcourse that stuck with me 🙏🏾♥️💯

@kianneabercrombie603 Год назад

@@angholloway5091 i'll answer that for you...coco got better with her attitude, what people don't know is coco has bipolar disorder which she has mentioned so a lot of her attitudal outburst in the past was because of that but now she takes her medications & is so much more mild mannered & respectful!!

@whitneyhouston1122 Месяц назад

Lemme tell u something abt Coko she is from New York the hood side of the Bronx so u had to learn how to be rude and mean before someone takes from u so she had to be tough. She had to learn how to act around people and be more lady like/media pleasing.

That little acapella performance gave me chills and they wasn't even putting everything they got into it. This is why these sisters are still selling out shows and new generations are finding them and making them relevant again and again. Their voices and songs are like magic!

I’m still after 25 years trying to figure out if LeLee can actually sing? If so, why aren’t any of their top hits featuring HER voice or Taj’s in a solo?

@tcg1972 Год назад

@Sha Taj has a solo part on 'Use Your Heart.' I really love her voice and Lee Lee has solo parts on other songs. They can sing but they don't have a powerhouse voice like Coko has.

@ethanjones467 Год назад

@@sha1841 Look up their video Co Sign LeeLee sings the first verse. She also sings on Lose My Cool, If Only You Knew and There Will Never Be. Taj sings lead on Use Your Heart, Ain't No Man and All About You and LeeLee sings and adlibs on that song as well. There's other songs not to mention

@dctalk1117 Год назад

@@sha1841 you didn't hear her when they just sang acapella on here? There is no way she could hold down that bottom harmony on the spot like that and keep it in tune if she couldn't sing. But back in the day Leelee could really sing, according to Coko she taught her a lot of runs, and vocal techniques. I think smoking diminished her vocal range a little but she can def sing
