First Time Hearing Angela Winbush - Angel REACTION 🔥🔥🔥

[@MsOlSchool]

What makes Angela even more special, she wrote the song, arranged the music, and sung the backgrounds, she surpassed being a singer.

Facts

[@vanessa4u4evr]

Angela and I were music majors together at Howard University back in the mid-70s. She was a beast then too. She graduated a year before I did and sang background for Stevie Wonder for a few years before branching out on her own. We always knew that she would be mega-successful. And she was until she met, fell in love, and married Ronald Isley. Things went downhill and it was a dark night for her for several years. But thankfully she made it out of that dark pit and is performing again occasionally.

[@lutherbrice1316]

Wow, I wasn’t aware of Ms Wnbush attending Howard. I’m really amazed at how many artist came from Howard, Blackbyrds, Unifics, Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway as well as others. I went to Lincoln but I love Howard ❤

[@vanessa4u4evr]

@@lutherbrice1316 Yeah. Howard was/is a mecca for cranking out black talent. A couple of the Blackbyrds were my classmates also. They were about three years ahead of me. But in my senior year, they took a break from the road and Kevin, their keyboard player, and Keith Killgo, their drummer/vocalist, returned to Howard to complete their degrees. So they were in my circle for a hot minute as well.

[@lutherbrice1316]

@@vanessa4u4evr Thanks for sharing with us🙏🏾✌🏽

[@dbisamazing84]

Angela from what I remember, was one of the original members of the Richard Smallwood Singers. Richard himself, I believe attended Howard as well. But clearly, Angela's voice was too big and far too gifted for her to just sang in a group. She was meant for bigger and better, and I'm so glad the world knows who she is, all these years later.

[@dbisamazing84]

I'm not sure if you remember or knew of her, but there was a young lady out of Chicago, who also attended and graduated from Howard back then, as a music major. She was a Coloratura Soprano, by the name of Felicia Coleman. She was very big in the Chicago Gospel Music scene, most notably as a member of Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church, and recorded on many of their albums from the early 70s through the early to mid-90s. And to my understanding, when the musical Sing Mahalia Sing happened, Richard Smallwood brought her aboard to join the cast. Howard has a niche for discovering some of the greatest black musical talent in the world! I'm so glad you had a wonderful experience there!

[@kempissongster21]

Thank you for lifting up the great Angela Winbush. Great video and precious reaction. Now, please react to her song, “Smile.” Many thanks.

[@shante70sb]

Babyyyy, when it come to vocals, Ms.Angela Winbush doesn't play when it comes to VOCALS!!! I hate she doesn't get get her flowers 🌹 🌹🌹🌹 because she's a BEAST!! Literally!!

[@ulyssesredd3592]

I agree. Very underrated. I think cause she never tried to tap into pop. But even in the R&B world people forgot the hits and powerful vocals to go with the song writing skills

[@pd4104lang]

A classically trained pianist to go along with everything else!

[@jillday2955]

I have the vinyl when she came on the scene. She's as fiercely talented as a songwriter as she is a singer. She was a soloist with gospel artist Richard Smallwood, debuted with her then partner as Rene and Angela, and later was a longtime partner of Ronald Isley.

[@cliftonarnelin4751]

One of the clearest singing strongest vocalists ever!!!

[@Wonderwoman79G]

80's R&B singers like Angela were on another level. Every decade up until the early 00s, had amazing R&B singers who could sang sang. They had to so they could get a record contract. Love your stank face reaction.🤗

[@feferosette]

You are right! Artists from the past sounded magnificent and wonderful. I'm so glad i was a teen in the 80's.

[@markmitchelle9240]

This song always gets me You have to listen to it a couple times.

[@sloansv]

Whats so impressive about her is she was a boss way back then. Music producer in a truly male dominated era!❤❤

[@lawannalw]

The artist today do not take the time to perfect their craft. The older vocalist put in the hard work. They practiced, practiced, and practiced. They had passion and yes they are more soulful. It wasn't about fame. It was about love of music and appreciating the gift. I am a member of Gen X and I saw a shift in music from my generation. Don't get me wrong, my generation has some fabulous artist, but then there are those that began sexualizing the music and taking off their clothes. It became about the fame and not about the heart and soul of the art. My mom is a Baby Boomer and her generation took music to all kinds of hypes. Every genre was banging. My dad was from the Greatest Generaton (GI), which produced the Nicholas Brothers. Need I say more? People took pride in their appearance in both generations and the neuclear family was important. That's a topic for another day.

[@DarrylSellers]

Angela Winbush's 4-octave vocal range is unmatched! Even Whitney Houston couldn't touch her!!!!

[@mreynol1]

That's a reach now. Whitney could definitely kill!

[@DarrylSellers]

@@mreynol1, that's true! So can Angela! They are both have superior voices!! 😊👏🏾🎶🎤

[@DarrylSellers]

@@mreynol1, true! Whitney is one of the all-time greats! Angela Winbush has an amaIng voice too! She's one of those "Unsung" singers who hasn't gotten her due! Her range is INCREDIBLE!! Jean Carne is another singer in this category, along with a number of others! Whitney, Angela, Jean have superior voices!! 😊👏🏾🎶🎤

[@carolanestanley4030]

[@Mrsjudy1]

Th best vocals ever. I met her and sang this song with her.

[@TerrenceBowden-i4k]

My favorite female R and B artist of all time.

[@ulyssesredd3592]

One of the most underrated vocalists of all time. I give her top 3. Her range is unmatched. U want to really hear her vocals check out learn to respect the power of love. That song might make her number 1. Stephanie mills did the song in a cover but Angela (original) puts her version to shame.

[@Marvin-ut4xs]

Idk , Stephanie is top level too .

[@elmerelbert2753]

Great Song from one of my favorite singers. Check out Smile from Miss Winbush.

[@GeorgeJansen]

Smile ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lovehate8286]

As the kids say now, “she one of them ones.” 😊

[@markmitchelle9240]

That face when she found out, she had more levels to hit. That’s how I felt too, and I always have to go back. 😊

[@randywilliams2907]

She married Ron Isley (isley Brothers). They divorced some years later. Golden Voice!

[@AntoinetteRolark]

Whoever it was that arranged that background while she background herself with her that course and then she have her background singers doing their part and then she jumped back in with the lead that is so awesome I mean that really really made the song it was just awesome for them to be able to use her in her own background and then jump in with her lead whoever productive this was brilliant

[@hassanshakir6933]

You Have To React to , "I Rather Go Blind" by Etta James, Live Montreux 1975

Young lady I'm enjoying your discovery!! I'm listening to you and smiling..That is what real singing do to ya!

[@citypaintersllc2874]

The 80s I was staring my 20s....sister that time was the best to live in sooo much good real music , brothers and sisters lived good and partied tremendously....you wouldn't want to live in the 2000s....men and women romanced for real like grown fokes.

[@randykinard2614]

Still waiting on you Ashley to react to the Dells live performances

[@garrywalker2042]

ABSOLUTELY TRUE MY SISTER ❤

[@amartin196280]

This was true talent

[@cocopuff7038]

Awesome, one of the underrated voices in the 80's early 90's on the R&B scenes. But if you get some time react to Rene & Angela "My First Love"

[@KaykayBelieve-el4gf]

I loved when my dad played this on his record player back in the days

[@rhondaatkins1776]

This song got heavy play on the "Quiet Storm" hours on R&B stations.

[@jasondawson92]

Man this definitely gonna be on my playlist thinks for reminding me

[@ChefOG_Ra]

I was vibing out to this joint, and i said, "lets see if anyone has recently discovered this MASTERPIECE." Im glad you were one of the few. Lets talk about the amazing being that is Miss Angel Winbush, for a sec. Not only an AMAZING vocalist, she's also a writer and producer. As a duo, with song writer/producer, Rene Moore, and on her own, she has written HITS for legendary artists like The Isleys, Lalah Hathaway, Janet Jackson, Stephanie Mills, so on and so on. She's truly one of them ones. Its funny u mention that time machine, I've felt like that my entire life. Im an 80s baby, but always wanted to be a 60s baby. Theres definitely new 🔥 out there, but you gotta search hard. The majority of the greatest music made, was between 76-89, imo. We do have artist like India Arie, Jill Scott, Faith Evans, Marsha Ambrosius & Jazzmime Sullivan, just to name a few that can give you that authentic soul feel WITH spectacular vocals With that being said, how much are paid requests? I made one a good while back, when i first found you, but nothing ever came of it. Gotta get my favorite male singer, and 1 of the greatest soul artist, on this channel.

[@AntoinetteRolark]

I just like to get the young people virgin are there of this underrated singer I just can't believe that back in those days when that was recorded that they thought that she was underrated on what cause they didn't have any calls to me that was an Angelic voice she stands right up there with the Bee Gees Prince Michael Jackson I like to know the young people that is hearing this what would you rate her voice of that song as between 1:10 1 to 10:00 what would you give it

[@tonnythorton8826]

You should check out Angela Winbush’s best song from her album it’s the real thing, learn to respect the power of love that is one of the best song she’s ever written

The man (her angel) is the one and only Ronald Isley. She stopped her solo career after she married him. Became a background singer in his band with a few duets.
