Attended the Essence Festival in NOLA, but wished that I'd the chance to see these legends perform for the last time!! Thank you all for the good music & the great memories!❤😂🎉❤😂🎉❤

[@Donuts1744]

Legend group period.

[@inhisservicegodis3287]

NO ONE WILL EVER SING THESE CRAFTED SONGS LIKE FRANKIE.. FACTS.. THE OTHERS CANT OLD UP TO FRANKIES STANDARD. BUT ITS HIS TIME... LIKE THE OJAYS AND THE REST FROM THAT GENRE OF MUSIC. 🎶 GOD BLESS THEM ALL.. 😊❤

[@MRych-st8zc]

Check out DurtiRyce their singer is really good

[@inhisservicegodis3287]

[@JoannHines-g6f]

Frankie, sit back & rest on your laurels, My Brotha!!❤😂🎉❤

[@marilynh5487]

It lovely 😍 👀 👀 seeing Frankie. Love❤Is.

[@ohheybih]

If that’s the new lead singer … hmmm they couldn’t find someone who sounds more like FB?

[@Bridge3]

YES, I TOTALLY AGREE-not a good choice at all ! I was really missing Frankie's voice.

[@graceinterrupted]

I am in my feels about the tributes in the past two weeks. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I’m grateful for experience and memories of seeing him perform. FBs shoes cannot be filled.

[@michaela.humphrey9195]

It’s a tribute, but the lead vocals audio/sound was not good on KZbin! Hope it was better in person! Luke James and Anthony Hamilton can absolutely sing, but this audio is really bad!

[@brandipayton4062]

It was definitely clear ❤​@@michaela.humphrey9195

[@brandipayton4062]

No that's Luke James , a tribute only

[@bigcartoonyIIV]

Now there will be 2 Maze cover bands. The other TMF will eat this group alive, because JUBU skills lone kills it. Sad part people come to see frankie, so I dont know how long this maze will last.

[@brandipayton4062]

This was a tribute to Maze , not the new singer

[@bigcartoonyIIV]

@@brandipayton4062 At the end they said he is the new lead singer. Last night I saw it live.

[@marileejohnson5736]

​@@brandipayton4062 True but he will be filling in for Rev Frankie now. That decision was made several months ago

[@marileejohnson5736]

​@@brandipayton4062 A true tribute would have included Roame and jubu. Just Massacring his songs😢

[@bigcartoonyIIV]

@@marileejohnson5736 Yes JUBU is the man. I think he started his own band.

[@ametradavis2861]

Blame all this on new management 😮😮😮😮 Sounds like a cover band

[@MRych-st8zc]

Exactly but check out Durti-Ryce better than this singer

[@kjonezey43]

Frankie should have groomed a successor a longtime ago .

[@ohheybih]

In his defense, he probably never anticipated his band leaving and forming their own group without him. He may have been planning on someone in that camp to replace him on vocals one day.

[@MRych-st8zc]

The successor is Durti-Ryce check them out the singer is really good

[@kjonezey43]

@@MRych-st8zc They just said the guy Tony is the new lead singer. Durti Ryce sounds good but apparently he’s not the new lead.

[@fatchuky]

@@ohheybih the band didn't leave, they were fired

[@ohheybih]

@@fatchuky 👀. I thought they left because FB didn’t want to tour that much any more and they did because they needed to make money.

[@chrisowens9977]

People in the comments saying this dude doesn't sounnd like Frankie, shidd, Frankie has a difficult voice to imitate, shidd even Frankie himself couldn't imitate his own voice after a while. He song in such a high voice. So I think this guy did ok considering Frankie's unfollowable voice.

[@Jujudiamonds]

Who is the third guy

[@dinawashington1473]

Tony Lindsay! 11 Time Grammy winner. Former Lead singer for Carlos Santana! Awesome vocalist! Fantastic choice! Honoring Frankie with his own style in his own way… I love it!!!

[@marileejohnson5736]

Why did this band change the musical arrangement to running away??? It's heartbreaking to watch & I guess they didn't do a soundcheck because the sound is awful. They're nothing like the original maze band😢

[@ohheybih]

Who is that singing We Are One?

[@WParks88]

Luke James

[@ohheybih]

@@WParks88 thank you

[@starz6449]

I’m not feeling the new lead singer👎🏾they should’ve hired Luke or KC🤦🏾‍♀️

[@sexylexie]

He can sit down somewhere else.

[@graceinterrupted]

😂

[@graceinterrupted]

K-CI, such a soulful voice, I have to go and listen to Love Always. ♥️ Last Night’s Letter .. chile memories!!

That’s not Frankie sanging………no one can duplicate FRANKIE B

[@djdsmooth72]

Complete disaster

[@ohheybih]

@@djdsmooth72 pretty much

[@ShaShaLuva414]

I wasn’t there but I didn’t get a Great feeling 😌

[@ohheybih]

So now the other version of Maze that is comprised of the OG band (to the greatest extent possible) will be in competition with this version that is now without Frankie. It’s like an almost even playing field now that FB isn’t performing. But, I think the other version with the OG band wins. I would rather see them.

[@bigcartoonyIIV]

right. thats what im thinking. People come to see Frankie. Now both are just cover bands. JUBU alone kills it

[@graceinterrupted]

It is messy. I still have to get out of my feelings first 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@bigcartoonyIIV]

@@graceinterrupted its like the million temptations groups. Frankie is smart thought. He will still get paid, just to show up.

[@ohheybih]

@@bigcartoonyIIV exactly

[@marileejohnson5736]

Why are they changing the music to running away. I cannot y'all

[@marileejohnson5736]

"Aint nobody coming to see you TONY" and that FAKE MAZE BAND😂😅

[@Noemyskillz]

Love Anthony but his voice ain fit this song. Durand wouldve bn 🔥 durin this tribute

[@graceinterrupted]

Great choice and I could have seen Kenny Lattimore up there with Luke. Luke looks like he is ready to play the lead in the biopic(speaking into existence).

Alzheimer’s is terrible…

So Rev Frankie has Alzheimer's???

[@ohheybih]

@@marileejohnson5736just my opinion based on recent interviews I’ve seen with him and my own experiences with family.
