Video: Chanj singing Floetry’s ‘Say Yes’ on Apollo

Sandra Rose February 25, 2008

I don’t know who Chanj is, but dude can blow! A&R’s, get your feet off the desk, put down the XBox controller and get on your jobs! The industry needs this!

Hey Sandra, I’m giving myself a shout out for sending this video to you on Saturday. Chanj’s four range octave is amazing! I’ve never heard any male singer reach an octave that high & strong. Not even D’Angelo, Philip Bailey, Musiq or Maxwell can touch him.

I remember waking up out of a dead sleep, when he was on! There was a YT chick on b4 him singing an Anita Baker song. She was aiight, but I kept going in and out of a comatosed sleep.

But then I heard this dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was like damn he was the best thing to hit the stage since Lyfe appeared on there. I sat straight up. He was the truth.

When Lyfe did amateur (sp) night, as soon as he walked on the stage, they boo’d him. He sat down, grabbed his guitar, sang his song and if I’m not mistaken, walked off the stage like “Sexual Chocolate” did in Coming to America when he was finished. The crowd was left drooling on themselves and sittin on his feces, cuz he shitted all over the Apollo theater. LOL

Although the dude can obviously sing, I think he’s more of a stage performer than a album singer. Sometimes good singers and performers don’t translate well on an album. I think it’s the combination of being able to hear him and see him that makes this stand out more because personally I didn’t think his lower range would have even caught my attention if I just heard him sing.

I agree. I wasn’t overwhelmed by his voice, but his presence on stage is very powerful. I couldn’t stop watching.

Well Maxwell may have a run for his money(lol) Now aaron you know you my man 50 grand & all but could I detect a lil jealousy(lmao) jk!! Sandra whats the catch was Rihanna performing on there that nite cause it’s not like you to show anyone that much love without there being a link!!!

Nah not jealous at all, I did after all say the man can sing. I was referring to Sandras statement about A&R’s being on their job. Further more I am more than appreciative of people with talent but I also know that everyone that sing doesn’t always translate well onto recorded music. I do originals so I’m not trippin. I write/arrange/sing/rap/produce and record my own music so I understand the talent and hardwork it takes for real artist to produce music. That’s why I tend to bash artist that look like E.T., can’t sing and is basically are a product of everyone behind them doing all the hard work.

So when are we gonna be able to see you or hear some of your stuff!!! That way Sandra Rose can take all the credit for discovering you(lmao) Seriously you have a nice voice & I know it’s hard trying to find the right people that won’t D*** you so good luck to you, I may be chatting with the next Pharell!!! (I hope u don’t get offended I only said Pharell cause he does all those things too!!)
hellava10

Yeah AaronMichael!! Send Sandra your stuff–and don’t think I forgot that we are going to be in the video.
http://www.myspace.com/aaronmichaelofatm AaronMichael

Nah I’m definitely not offended. I think Pharell is a great musician, but my all time favorite is Timbaland by far. I’m getting ready to work on getting a studio album done and will definitely let you all know when that drops. I always got stuff on the MySpace though. I’m just trying to get Seattle on the map cause no one comes here looking for talent and it does exist here. I gotta start being nice to Sandra so she can name drop me every couple of days too…I’m sure there’s some big time A&R’s scouting this blog.

LoL@hellava…I almost forgot about that, thanks for reminding me! I will get Sandra some stuff, we’ll see if she gives me a mention. I’ll definitely hit ya’ll with something hot soon…I promise.

Now, if you don’t put us in the video –we gonna hafta blast your ass on here. Let me see you on TRL -mspeaches will get her knife and ooo even better….. You are all of our babies daddies and we want half. The media will feel sorry for us, we’ll take it to Maury.

LoL…nah, as long as you can Pose, I’ll put you in the video for my song called “Pose”. I got the concept already. I might need you to wear a oven glove dress though…would that work for you?
hellava10

ms.peaches

Helluva I was thinking of wearing the stripper getup Riri had on a few pics bac when Sandra asked about her assets!!! then I was thinking of going with the top Cici had on in her pic with the throat choker collar??? Man there are so many ensembles to choose from Oh better yet how about the chick that was in Kanye’s video(if it was long enough to be called that) the Mink coat Yeah we could pose in those Aaron & then set them on fire in front of a big picture of Rihannna, wow I got ideas for days!!!!(rotf)
http://www.myspace.com/aaronmichaelofatm AaronMichael

LoL…I like I like! Wait, what if ya’ll did the burning squirrell coat thing and then I have an E.T. trying to put the fires out? Now that would be HOT! I don’t care what happens, if I ever get a chance to do a real video I will definitely put an E.T. in one of em’ and only you guys will know why.
ms.peaches
