Incredible vocal performance - a stunning, plus-sized Black woman singing - the track is GORGEOUS and gives you chills - it's about a breakup or a guy cheating or something like that

*******FOUND IT THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING SO BRILLIANT EVEN THOUGH MY DESCRIPTION WAS AWFUL *******

This is driving me nuts.

My ex-boyfriend showed me a YouTube video of this beautiful, larger Black lady. Her voice is almost like Mariah Carey’s—just WILD vocal runs. It’s a video of her on stage performing so INTENSELY… it makes you want to cry or gives you goosebumps everywhere. The song is about a man being terrible or unfaithful or something???

If I remember right, the video is mostly just her vocals, not a lot of instruments in the background.

She’s on stage under the lights and just completely crushing it.

PLEASE ASSIST ME!!! My ex cheated on me so I can’t ask him, and I really need to listen to this woman’s voice to help me get through this :')

Could it be Sharon Jones?

I’m guessing Koko Taylor, I’D RATHER GO BLIND

Best of luck :four_leaf_clover:

Maybe something from Amber Riley? Perhaps And I’m Telling You I’m Not Going?

Is it “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” by Jennifer Holliday?

Maybe Big Mama Thornton

Brittany Howard is my guess.

Ooh! What about Jennifer Hudson?

Jennifer Hudson? And I Am Telling You

Maybe Brittany Howard? Her singing definitely gives me chills, but she has a bit more of a raw sound. Try listening to Hold On from when she was with Alabama Shakes.

Do you recall the general genre? Also, could she be from the UK?

Could be Kelly Price

YEBBA— About to Lose My Mind. She’s white, but wow, her soul is undeniable.
