Marsalis & Ferrell

[@GMoneyXL1969]

One uses an instrument, one is an instrument. Very enjoyable to watch.

[@stseinyt]

I agree

[@MysticStranger]

Rachelle Ferrell is the world’s greatest interpretive singer. No one can match the full range of capabilities she exhibits with her voice. It is truly a first instrument.

[@nicolejames6796]

I Absolutely adore her and Will Downing's duets

[@aze2252]

To be fair, rachelle's instrument isn't humanly.

[@sambac2053]

It was a competition

[@erikm8372]

Really, it was a competition? I don’t know; she often invites musicians and singers on stage at her shows. Very welcoming to them to show off a little bit. And at the end of this video, she says something like “…that was Mr. Marsalis, everyone, give it up!” as if he is an invited guest during HER show… I know she did that with Jennifer Hudson. She was so open and nurturing, but JHud was so gracious and respectful that she low-key held back! Even so, Rachelle was musically “egging her on” like “Don’t hold back girl, I know you in there now….!” Overall Rachelle loves musicians who love music and speak the language fluently. So she welcomes them (us) on stage… one day, it’ll be me and my electric violin, and we’ll be in conversation…somewhat like this… 🎻😬✌🏼

[@sambac2053]

@@erikm8372 Cutting contests are not necessarily unfriendly. This goes back to social dances in African villages. Members of peer groups, who grow up together, take initiation together,work together all their lives, and are truly extended family, not just figuratively, compete, dancing and drumming . Everyone gets their turn, there is nothing unfriendly ,or mean spirited about it .But it is really rigorous, they try to blow each other away. It is understood that this makes it more dynamic and exciting for everyone. This is for social dances, not ceremonial ones. This traditions persists in Jazz cutting contests. Make no mistake , this video is of a cutting contest. Yes they are friends and musical allies,and yes it was real competition. Watch what happens from about 5:32 to the end. She does something he can't match, and what he plays next, a lower register blues figure is him conceding. Look at the faces he makes.

[@iluvrachellef]

Just the best.....they went to Berkeley together. 💓👍🔥😀

He know he can't do nothing with her! She's messing with him (3:17 the look on his face). They went to college together. It's so cute. I'd love to see them now in 2021 on stage together. We'd all have to just start on the floor 'cause that's where we'd end up by the time they got done knocking us out! 💖

I had a Rachelle Ferrell album in high school. I haven't listened to it for a while, but I was just hearing it in my head 25 years later. I gotta start listening to more of her. She is so amazing.

[@crucial0072]

He has a tell when he's trying to figure out how to respond to Rachelle. When she went to the whistle register, his tell gave him away. He was trying to figure out how he was gonna follow that shit. He opted out immediately. 😂😂😂😂

[@sambac2053]

Exactly, he conceded defeat with that low blues riff in response. It was good for him, he's one of the all time great players, but was kind of arrogant about it in his youth.

[@bristolstomp5158]
