LIVE: Tevin Campbell - I'm Ready & Always In My Heart (MTV Jams 1993)

This is one of my favourite performances by Tevin Campbell.
At one point it disappeared off of KZbin for years. Now I've found it. Enjoy!

The boy with the golden voice..

[@rachaeleigh]

I miss the 90s. Music was way better ❤️❤️❤️😍🥰

[@milliebarksdale9787]

Rachaeleigh, you are Soooo right you could get on the floor and dance and have nothing but fun and lots of fun🙏🙏

[@kesea5454]

Tevin said "My microphone is ON" ❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥

[@DriveAustra]

"I'm Ready" is packed full of runs and riffs reminiscent of Whitney Houston. Could he have channeled Whitney Houston in this performance? Absolutely mind-blowing!

[@rashadhaughton22]

Yup

[@tavaresgaither3741]

He said he did.

[@deniselis5627]

Whiney didn't have a thing to do with this song because this song was written in the front living room 😅

[@DriveAustra]

@@deniselis5627 The discussion is about his tone, phrasing and vocal nuances, which are all identical to Whitney's.

[@serenetonero]

he must have been inspired by Whitney, cause he has similar runs in his singing. He was one gifted teenager.

[@knownbutunknown]

He is giving me all of Whitney Houston right here!

[@rashadhaughton22]

Omg...i thought that too

[@thetruthsideswiththeoppressed]

Right! I have always thought of him as the male version of the late, great, Whitney Houston.

[@cvc1814]

yup

[@osochi71]

I thought I was the only one who saw that.

[@moodahs]

You nailed it 👍

[@Tonia682]

Always in my heart is my favorite Tevin song! He was blowing!!!

[@chocon8818]

They say that is the way he messed up his career in that park.

[@thetruthsideswiththeoppressed]

Tevin Campbell…. What can I say about this young gem? His style, his tone, the texture of his voice, his ad libs…. Reminds me of WH. He’s definitely the male version of her (Whitney Houston). I recently heard him say in an interview that she is one of his greatest influencers…. you can definitely tell here.

[@jahnome]

Can’t think of anyone since 2000 with a voice like either of them!

[@thetruthsideswiththeoppressed]

@@jahnome And you’d be absolutely right. No one!!!

[@MrBrown-mw9il]

Yes, WAS

[@bullydakidd2023]

😂😂😂 you can't be serious

[@bullydakidd2023]

@@thetruthsideswiththeoppressed he wasn't even the best young teenage male R & B singer during that era. There was someone who voice was stronger and smoother.

[@torreb3107]

"He sings so effortlessly , singing is naturally his gift !" "When you hear him sing to this day he touches your heart deeply and sends chills through you !"

[@yolandaorozco263]

Your so right om 80years. Old love R&B Musica old school love then new stuff. Rock it baby

Why do I feel like I need to get in church this weekend? Turn my life around. Very gospel sounding

[@whodatsuperbowlqueen5778]

I love Tevin Campbell’s voice, don’t you?

[@nikishajackson6913]

Absolutely

[@princezzmartinez4375]

When it's God given talent you don't need anything else!!! That boy was "sanging" not singing but "sanging!!!" ❤️💓❤️💓

[@lesliemiller6974]

Tevin, has always been one of my favorite voices...

[@Queenalika85]

Yes

[@iss_iam809]

He studied Aretha and Whitney. That boy was sanging!

[@Bylettti]

He had the same vocal coach as Whitney that’s why they sound alike

[@iss_iam809]

@@Bylettti Whitney was his vocal coach lol. Like she was the rest of us

[@bad2infinity]

yes he was sangin!!!!

[@justice5992]

@@Bylettti if vocal coach means listening to her records and studying her, then yes lol. Tevin debuted early 90s. Whitney didn't start seeing a coach until 2005 when she couldn't ignore the vocal damage anymore. Her coach before then was just Cissy & Cissy didn't train Tevin.

[@MelissaLaboriel]

The guy who worked with Whitney for “I’m your baby tonight” is the same person who worked with him on “I’m Ready”

[@Honey_Bayyy]

This type of music is so missed.

[@ktbrown9638]

I was 5 when this was recorded I’m 36 and this masterpiece will never get old

[@cherryashley4543]

They need to bring Tevin Campbell BACK he was born to sing voice Crystal Claire 🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥🌹🌹 🌹 🌹

90's era in the Philipines and in America what more can you ask for. My goodness.haha

[@oliviachicoas2554]

This man’s vocals are phenomenal, body chilling and etc . Not to mention he’s FINE as all outdoors ❤️❤️❤️ I’m obsessed 😍 . That smile is EVERYTHING

[@BB504_.]

Tevin had No auto tune a pure singer with real back up vocals a real live band that played Real music instruments not loud bass track loops auto tune singers with no talent just catchy hooks that can't perform live

[@musictipsreviewswithjg]

This is when an artist can just take a room with their voice...one of my fav live performances from him

[@townsendprotections5764]

Straight vocals. Tevin rocks.

[@dimples814]

WHAT A GIFT !!!!!!!!!!

[@omoniyikaye]

What do they have in common? Glenn Jones, Johnny Gill, late great Gerald Levert, and Tevin Campbell are they all sounded mature in their teenage years. They were all vocal monsters in their teenage years. Tevin Campbell was 16 going 17 on this video

[@kesea5454]

SO TRUE!!! You mentioned 4 talented vocalists who were borderline prodigies with how advanced their voices were. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥

[@cristianografitt882]

Beautiful melody

[@TheLovelylove]

Never heard a slowed down version of Im Ready and in love with it! If I was younger I would probably hate it becauze I hated remixes back then,lol. My taste now has evolved and I can appreciate a switch up. Speaks to the talent and producers to still make the same song sound different and still good.

[@middlemanent.6671]

Sangggg tev

[@joyceduckett7308]

Great voice! Great performance!
