Live Performance Wrap-Up: Maxwell, LeToya & Rihanna

MAXWELL! Dude kills live man. I love the horns. I love this song, the vibe of it just grooooooves man. Congrats to Maxwell on his 6 Grammy noms (our Grammy post will be up this weekend)! The changes the band were throwing into that music though — subtle but DOPE. You gotta pay attention to hear them though, if you can be take your eyes off of Maxwell’s on-stage antics and gyrations. However, I did hear something going on with Maxwell’s voice…did ya’ll catch that?

His Prince yell though? ROFL that was EVERYTHING! DONE!

LeToya did her best to make us believe that she has stepped up her vocal skills since the last album. This performance wasn’t THAT bad but it wasn’t that stunning either vocally. When someone last night said she was “on Mo’Nique Show strangling cats” I had to go check it out LOL, which was last night and she did her single “Regret”. Ya’ll worse than me sometimes! I like LeToya though, she has a good ear for material. Maybe that ear isn’t as good to hear the right pitches but hey, baby steps LOL! Nah, she sounded iite. A little strained at times, but decent.

Rihanna did a live streaming show in NYC yesterday at the Hammerstein Ballroom for Myspace (probably the most traffic Myspace had seen in a while). I felt like I was watching a lampshade from a Disney movie come to life and sing, only that they forgot to draw in the animations and whatnot. She is so terrible live on stage! There were some bum notes here and there, but let’s chalk that up to her “stanky face” cause that means she was feeling it ya’ll. Wamp.
