Avery Wilson singing “Don’t Leave” by Blackstreet

[@godsamongstmortals]

It’s insane Avery is not more mainstream… his voice is the epitome of a 90’s R&B classic!!!!! That tone and his runs are PHENOMENAL!

[@evangeline6]

I love Avery's rendition of this song & his patience with the background singers not blending. The crowd was such a surprise as well. Avery is an impressive performer

[@katyarnold6757]

This guy runs and riffs are amazing!!! Brandy Norwood should do duet with Avery Wilson

[@vanessavalverde3703]

YESS!! he did, but I must admit I have seen artists signal the sound people to cut off their backgrounds mics, read the background singers for sounding as horrible, to ushering them away from the mics to go sit in the audience. He showed a lot of constraints. I would have been a savage and employed all three of these options, given the fact that not only were they not singing in any recognizable key, but they were also so unprofessional, giggling and talking the entire time.

[@heyheyhey40]

The background singers aren’t bad singers. They were just singing out of their range. Especially that one guy who overpowered and effected the other two

[@joykeel2505]

True but the girl could've sang the melody and the guy could've sang the lower harmony rather than the girl singing the higher harmony and the guy singing the melody. As professional they could've worked it out before getting on stage sounding like that

[@maloneaqua]

@@joykeel2505 agreed - from what I can tell the guy wasn't bad at all, however the girl is in her head voice which isn't gonna compete with a grown man. I've been singing background for years and I know they could tell their levels were off, and could've course corrected before the 2nd chorus at least!

[@walkingintruthknowledge7418]

They don't know how to blend or how to adjust their pitch. Its a damn shame when the audience knows how to present better than them

[@thatgirlvee2]

They can't sing

[@heyheyhey40]

@@maloneaqua You and joy are exactly right. That man had no business singing the melody up there like that. If you are a professional, and you can’t hear yourself off like that, then something is wrong. I’m a choir director myself, and I would’ve INVERTED them downward real quick! That upper harmony is nice to have in this song, but intonation and tone quality is necessary!
