I want ALEX ISLEY to win SOOO BAD! She is amazing.

[@Churchychurch]

Same she deserves it

[@Lovejazz01]

💯💯💯💯💯

[@jaymoor5309]

Yaaaaaaazzzzz

[@winniebarker]

Me too

[@jordansmith7634]

So we're not gonna act like that intro was insane 🔥💥💢

[@TamarahLishawn]

THAT part!!!

[@MrJohnk1919]

Jazz song off one of his earliest jazz songs, I thing its called Silly Rabbit

[@Tel934]

It was absolute fire.

[@tgoodman757]

This must be your first time hearing Glasper.

[@kellikakes81]

Right?!?!?!

[@vegitausa]

We need this kind of pure R&B 🙌🏽

[@thegreatestbassist]

I TOTALLY agree!!

[@CyberBella4U]

Yes, indeed ❤

[@jaycesmith7899]

It's actually contemporary jazz. Robert Glasper has put out several quality projects along with Chris Davis. Both are Htown guys.

[@soulavenue8]

@@jaycesmith7899Yes indeed! We need to support jazz artists more!

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Robert glasper alex isley ,and sir are like the " big 3" of music collaboration they dont miss ever amazing performance of the night👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥🔥

[@bambimelson4945]

Glasper really sits in his lab like a mad scientist 🥼 and puts together the best of the best voices and Talent. Sir's discography is the background of my life and alex's voice is such a unique art. It's angelic perfection.

[@julioking625]

Saw him on R&B Money podcast. Most of it is just organic or he ask folks to slide through when they can. He's usually on the road so a lot of it is one or two takes. Amazing his stuff comes together so beautifully. And on really low budgets. I think he said Black Radio had like a $12,000 budget. Labels don't put money into jazz and jazz fusion.

[@TrevyTrevDen2Pit2Atl]

So long over due seeing Alex Isley on such a platform! Goosebumps each time I hear that voice. Bucket list to see her live. SiR sounded equally incredible! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@Lovejazz01]

LONG overdue!

[@Djwizjeepjams]

I saw her at the Blue Note and AMAZING!!!!!

[@oswaldreed183]

She is amazing live

[@MissLovelyLiz]

I legit got chills hearing Alex sing this live. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@dustinmackbee]

Should’ve been a solo

[@spinner2989]

She's so good love there's no way you don't get chills from her.

[@blackface703]

Same I swear!

[@lawestphilly]

Robert glasper is the mf man. Sir and Alex voices are just 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mistaencore732]

immediately clicked when I seen rob, sir, and queen Alex!!!!!

[@carap6343]

Same!!!

[@tegragigemartin7951]

She's 1 of the Isley Brothers daughter. Has her own album too.. lovely collaboration 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@deebrown4877]

Ernie Isley's daughter

[@jaytee5870]

She has several albums. KZbin has a good bit of her content and it's beyond worth listening to

[@pamelavass5481]

Oh she is a bit....snaps, snaps, snaps....I got em all !!

[@reginaldhickmon3227]

All of it 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@yolandacarson4711]

Her voice commands your attention❤

[@sollunaystars]

I absolutely LOOOOOVE ALEX ISLEY! Her voice is top tier🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@garthybrookens4839]

When R & B is done right it's sounds so beautiful and magical. This performance was just too fantastic.

[@porshastrong5450]

This song has been on repeat for a while for me! So happy to see it being performed live! Alex voice is like a sliding into a form fitting Silk Dress✨🤩🔥 Thank you Robert Glasper for creating such beautiful music 🎶

[@alexiscaldwell4133]

Girl this description was perfect!

[@charliewr]

Alex is amazing!!!!

[@feliciaparr9795]

I looooove how they slow walked this song!!!!! It's meant to be felt for sure❤

I love SiR 🥰 Still impatiently waiting for Heavy

[@skyzthalimit09]

Alex and Sir are such a good duet combination. I love all of their duets❤. You can't miss with Robert Glasper

[@Drebaby0707]

This song deserves a Grammy!

[@Lovejazz01]

Great to see Sir Glasper and Sir, but for reals, I’m an Alex Isley fan since 2013 , and this is the FIRST time I’ve ever even heard she was on any tv broadcast for anything , so monumental , yet such a shame at the same time. This is such a vibe , this is the kinda music I play everyday , it’s my life soundtrack. Thank you Sir Robert Glasper for getting this collab together, you are a musical genius! And a big congrats to all three for the Grammy nom!!! 🏆

[@completely_me75]

I'm happy to say I've witnessed Alex Isley in person. One of the highlights of my life frfr. She's so effortless and smooth with her vocals. Absolutely love her! 💚💚

[@channel_wavy]

ALEX ISLEY's voice is just magical! MELTED BUTTER. One of my favourite voices and tones in R&B!!!! Loyal fan since Love Art Memoirs

[@TheBurnonme]

She needs an Grammy nomination quick

[@markesgrant]

This ladies and gentlemen is what you call, REAL R&B!

[@JamesWilliams-qy1zj]

They killed that performance

[@Kvngofmarsgaming]

I love SiR and Alex Isley 😭❤️❤️🔥

[@reneesatchel42]

All I can say is, this world is musically blessed to have Alex Isley ❤

[@BLACKSENSUALITY]

The way that SiR & Alex articulated these lyrics over Robert’s piano…was so perfectly intimate. You could feel the apprehension, the pull between lovers, the desire & the resolve to try again, to give in to their feelings. I’m overdue for another Glasper Project. It’s such a perfect time for it.

[@GoldenGraham25]

Sir, Alex and Robert - all thier albums stay on repeat. Sir- All In My Head, Summer In November, Go There, Still Blue (ft. Jill Scott) Alex - La Brea, Wilton (Album), Gone, Good and Plenty (ft. Masego) Robert Glasper - Ah Yeah, Afro Blue, Calls Just some classics off the top of my head❤️

[@deebrown4877]

Ernie Isley is a proud papa for sure!! Alex is very talented! This was a great performance from this collaboration! Sounds like some 90's R&B oozing out a little bit.✊🏿✊🏿👍🏿👍🏿🎶🎼🎵

[@cshawnte2000]

I feel like I'm floating while I listen to Alex's angelic voice. Love this collaboration ❤❤❤

[@papichulochicago5503]

I’m so glad she’s getting the recognition she deserves should’ve happened along time ago

[@WhizMitchell]

This is a great, great record. As a musician, that Jazz intro floored me. Robert, SIR, and Alex knocked this one out of the park!!! I just love to hear great singers, great musicians, and an impeccable song. Bravo 👏 👏 👏

[@Ariell848]

Exactly what I was waiting for the entire night!!! Yesssss 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🩷

[@moegrant4433]

I Shazamed this while watching Run the World, and been playing it everyday since. Absolutely love this song. Alex has a beautiful voice and she’s a beautiful woman sheesh!!! Alex and Lalah Hathaway should do an album together.

[@gwendolyntaylor800]

Just got goosebumps from the suggestion alone! ❤❤❤🔥

Been waiting a long time for an Alex/Lalah collab, but could I handle it? 🥹🥹🥹🥹🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😮😮😮😄😄

[@mariabetancourt6797]

Beautiful

[@purejoy1985]

Where the hell have I been to not know this song? Its so my style and love everything about it. Heard of Sir before but never knew he sang. For some reason I thought he was a rapper, maybe since most are these days. 😂Mrs Isley is so amazing, 1st time hearing of her but very familiar with her family (if related to the legendary Isley brothers)!!! Just knowing this was done live makes it even more wonderful 👏🏿🙌🏿❤

[@janleepe]

Yea, SiR’s that dude. & You’re probably thinking of his brother D.Smoke who dabbles in a vocal cadence, but is a rapper. Lol

[@DrBigFMC]

Brilliant track. Two amazing singers over Glasper's trademark yet unique melodies. This is literally music for the soul.

[@lexijustasiam895]

Perfectly said! 💯

[@SpicyOriginal]

Alex Isley’s been one of my faves for a long time. So happy to see her on here. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@JvilleNC]

I remember hearing music like this on the radio on the daily in the 90's.

[@smoke-ja386]

Hidden gems that have been shining for quite some time. These 3 artist can embody the elements of fire, water, air and earth at any moment in time… but the fifth element of spirit was revealed as always and in this song collaboration and we hear the soul speak through the music. Grace be with these artist and those like them.. The ones who do the works of light for those in the dark. 🙏🏾

[@2013Jkitty]

Sir, his brothers and cousin Tiffany Gouche are soooo talented. The entire family are amazing artists!
