I can hear Khandi doing the high notes in the back and her voice is very prominent in all the choruses .. she was a good addition to the tribute

[@paulayoung9657]

Yes, it is unfortunate we can hear her. She's not even a good harmonizer. The producers of this segment knew it as well, and that is why she did not get big parts!

Money has not ever changed the Ojays I personally met them with my mother & family at Harrahs in San Diego when they came to do a concert and as they entered the lobby I walked over to Eddie and I said are you Eddie Levert and he said yes I am my mother was in a wheel chair and he walked over to her and hugged her and we took a picture then Walter did the same. They were just down to earth and Walter is just miraculous and he knows it. I have MS and Walter and I talked about that one day thru my cousin Duck from Oakland California. Thank God for wonderful people like these guys. Ms Tate

Wildflower does not belong to the O'Jays The O'Jays is my group but they cannot touch that song Wildflower they cannot sing that song better than NewBirth I never liked the fact that O'Jays did that song New Birth Tore that song up Wildflower will always be the New Birth song Angie Stone you should stay away from men songs anyway don't sing a song you can't sing The Sisters may have ment well l did not like their tribute !!! I want to recognize Walter Williams as the True Voice of the OJAY'S Eddie Levert always acts like he did all the Singing but if you ever Listen to the OJAY'S You will hear Walter Kill the Song and Bring it up To making it a HIT The Sisters Tribute to The O'Jays they did not stay on Melody of the song they made the song Sound trashey Silk on the other hand killed it Eddie Levert should acknowled Walter Williams As The True lead vocalist of The O'Jays cause Walter Williams always Sing what Eddie could not Walter Williams I Love Your voice
