still it took them years and years of practice and both Jamie and Jimmy being to hit even high notes without actual voice coaching is more fascinating

[@rizwanos50]

Turtles You serious? Jamie is a comedian, actor and i might add CLEARLY, a singer.

[@Kenny3stacks]

Maya Whitely - So fine 😍

[@bushenlongae]

Gotta give props to the roots and the lighting crew that was completely awesome

[@TheAllBlue139]

I think it was prepared, but that doesn't diminish how genious and talented they all are

[@coco2.2]

Eldon Bushenlonga these segmens are rehearsed

[@SpyroTek]

I'm pretty sure it wasn't actually random. Still good though.

[@SMP2390]

Co Duss No completely like they know what game they're playing but the performance is all improve.

[@swagn1f1c13nt]

[@sibothezulu]

I come back to this video often. Absolutely brilliant

[@emmabromley2060]

The roots are actual geniuses! they can adapt to anything

[@Tobizz3]

I'm pretty sure this is rehearsed. Not spontanious adapting.

[@laurrrrrrr]

If you want to hear really "freestyle" music then check Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven live version(Jimmy Page s solo from around 7:00 to 9:00) or Dazed and Confused (the 30 minutes live version). You will love them,I'm sure

Jamie held that “money” note for 11 seconds wtf

[@gsforevergs8866]

[@jcarpio4181]

​@@gsforevergs8866 Are you actually comparing Jamie Foxx who probably is a self-taught singer to Dimash who has been studying singing his entire life?

[@gsforevergs8866]

@@jcarpio4181 it is not a comparision... it is an advice....

[@dequanwren8199]

Aye, Jamie Foxes raw talent is still excellent, and not many professionally trained singers can match up to him.

[@dajosco115]

and "have" immediately before that for 9

[@amare32131]

Jamie Foxx is so talented and yet so underrated
