Kelela - Waitin - Radio 1's Piano Sessions

[@davidwave4]

DAMN SHE SOUNDS BETTER THAN ON THE STUDIO VERSION! HOW?! She is so immensely talented.

[@serchramos3584]

i'd say that here you focus more in the voice than in the album version.

[@daniealex]

You can really hear her jazz influences in this stripped down version. So lovely.

[@reaganspinelli5899]

going thru a breakup as this album dropped.... forever grateful to you kelela

[@moonshapedscar]

I feel blessed to exist on the same dimension as this wondrous being. Hope I can see her in Portugal soon.

[@Mariaz215]

Espero que ela venha a Portugal um dia destes!!!

[@moonshapedscar]

Mariaz215 eu já só quero também, de preferência sem ser em festival pra ser mesmo aquele sonho 😍

[@Mariaz215]

Luisa Cativo nem mais😍😍

[@rogerchocodiles]

pode ser que o Mexefest seja amigo!

[@Niabiafoefia]

This what I️ needed

[@kelelafucksmysoul4340]

Same. I hate people lesser

[@infamousNfamous]

where is her tiny desk or kexp perfomance. i NEED to hear more of this album stripped down!

[@rodriogq]

shitttttt her on tiny desk would be so dope! where can we petition that

[@Sunfl0w33r]

THE TIME HAS COME 🙌🏽🙏🏽

[@RFlex-vw9fc]

Great use of dynamics to make the structure of the song POP

[@oliviaaus1086]

What a smooth and clear voice

[@utadaaah8350]

With every live that passes she's getting stronger and stronger ! This was so beautifully translated on to piano.

[@heymaria123]

" it's all i dreamed of " !!! YESSSS

[@malachiwatsby9633]

heymaria123 when she hyped Bankhead in this song I went nuts too

[@xrenx_7160]

Her voice is so beautiful

[@RubenHernandez-dk4ow]

YES COME THROUGH QUEEN WITH THESE VOCALS

[@kharikhy-ree2242]

It's so good. She sung this so perfectly and the piano too. They played off one another so beautifully.

[@pedrohbahia]

Janet and Aaliyah vibes. She also mentioned Sade and Bjork as inspirations as well. She's the future of music. Black excellence ✨

[@leondavis3150]

Man the very first time I heard her I said the exact same thing ! Aaliyah and Janet all day.... She’s one of the best I’ve ever heard.

[@infamousNfamous]

Pedro Bahia it's cool that Bjork is one of her influences cuz apparently Bjork listens to her too lol she did a dj set with a kelela song in it

[@onamvalenzo5097]

Yes! That kind of vibe, fresh and very honest way to express the lyric. I like her a lot.

[@hugodelor1941]

Also love the fact that she cited Amel Larrieux as an inspiration. Such a great, underestimated vocalist and musician !

[@louisesinacola157]

Spot on, Janet Jackson's futuristic whimsical flavours, wholesome mellifluous Sade, with runs very akin to Aaliyah. I saw Kelela live about 7 years ago - she was mesmerising

[@giovanni7054]

I can’t not shake my ass to this every time it comes on.

[@jeffreyfree2294]

One of my favorite tracks from the new album

[@samuelbarron825]

I'm literally crying right now

[@megbewa264]

Samuel Barron exactly what I was about to say

[@Kyouko1269]

Me too!

[@Clockworkcityofpain]

I love her voice! I'm definitely gonna follow her everywhere from now on

[@terrencejohnson5496]

Janet + Aaliyah + Bjork = Kelela .... So good

[@MsBlack]

i am SOOOO ready to see her live!!!!!

[@asiaa.latrice]

[@Bonitaymorena]

[@ohdangmybad]

the fuckin bankhead sample 😩

[@majira-dy5im]

wdym by that?

[@ohdangmybad]

Some Bitch 1:31 it's all i dreamed of... it can't get started 〰

[@majira-dy5im]

funkboat omg yes thank you

[@Vertiz131]

I love that part too. When I first heard the song I was singing along with that part cuz I was too turnt by how nicely she blended that in with the rest of the song. btw They call that an interpolation, since sampling is when it's used in the beat.

[@aprilthompson6438]

I'm mad this doesn't have more views! SHE IS LIFE!!! ❤❤❤💯💪🙌

[@sharonharvey6338]

Her voice is beautiful

[@Bonitaymorena]

The Velvet Rope (1997) album teas!!! Kelela even said she didn't release how much of an impact Janet had on her until she finished Take Me Apart and people kept mentioning the Janet vibes!! I love Kelela's voice and this song is so beautiful... feels like floating on a cloud of love!!

[@Gabriel-ud5hu]

Janet opened doors for all black female singers out there right now. Kelela, Twigs, Dawn Richard...

Janet, Aaliyah, Tamia, Sade...she has that same pure, clean, smooth, yet powerful tone,♥️ I love her & her style feels authentic, unlike some of these wannabe R&b artists coming up with all the same rehashed garbage. I mean I appreciate their attempts...
