Why Is Everyone Singing Whitney’s Songs Better Than Her?

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Apr 22, 10
I posted a video of the Internet sensation Lin Yu Chun singing a Whitney Houston song before, but he was on George Lopez singing “Saving All My Love For You” and while it wasn’t as pitch perfect as his version of “And I Will Always Love You” was, it was still pretty interesting. Do we take him seriously? NO!

Also, in the clip above, you will see Broadway actress & singer Sasha Allen singing the exact same song during a PHOTOSHOOT. I cannot stop listening to her version either. This girl is BAD. She’s currently starring in “Hair”…she’s had a couple of R&B deals, but wow…

But still, you got to admit, they both sound better than Whitney sounded a week ago in the UK singing the exact same song:

OMG…Maybe He Can Be Whitney’s Stand-In!?

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Apr 7, 10
On the heels of Whitney Houston’s Euro tour being postponed, I stumble across this viral clip of a Taiwanese male named Lin Yu Chun and he’s competing on a karaoke show called Super Star Avenue for a prize of $1 million US dollars, or £650,000. Wow!

I submit that he should be Whitney’s stand-in, because umm, he hit EACH and EVERY note — notes that she can’t even hit anymore. Bowl-cut, bowtie and ALL. This video is sweeping the internets of course.

He’s being called the next Susan Boyle because of his looks, but forget about a bunch of that, he slayed the hell out of this song. He sounds just like Whitney. Disturbing, a little, but he blows this out the water!

I need to compose myself, BRB.

Classic Flashback: Whitney Houston – “So Emotional”

Written by The IPS in Blogs,Videos on Feb 24, 10
I love “So Emotional”. I was talking to a friend last night because apparently they were showing a Whitney Houston block on VH1 Soul last night and it reminded me of all the Whitney songs I love. “So Emotional” is one of my random favorites because I just felt like she hit these high notes so effortlessly in this song. That top note she she sings during the chorus? She doesn’t even sound like it’s a problem 90% of the time LOL.

It looks like in this video she did more prep for that “tour” than she did for her CURRENT tour. LOL. Poor us. “The Voice” really is gone though, I think it’s time that we all realize this and do some artist development and talent and scouting to find the next “Voice”. I refuse to believe that we have to settle for Keyshia Cole.

Whitney Houston “Couldn’t Entertain A Dead Rat” Says Australia

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 23, 10
I mean, WOW! WOOOOOOOOOOW. Them Australians go hard! Aren’t they the same ones that gave Britney Spears the business too for lip-syncing and giving a terrible show? I like them Australians LOL!

Whitney Houston is reportedly getting worse as the tour goes along. It was reported in the clip above that she took long breaks and vocally was not ready for a world tour. She hadn’t been to Australia on tour in 20 plus years, so hopes were riding high, as well as ticket prices — which STARTED at $100. Phew.

I don’t blame them, I woulda walked out too.

Another clip from the show of the finale below, after the jump.

Whitney Houston Stuns In South Korea — Good Way or Bad Way? You Decide!

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Feb 9, 10
Whitney Houston’s world tour has started and her first stop and launch was in Seoul, South Korea. Thousands of fans came up to support Whitney, and she ran through most of her hits from her 25-year old catalog, no doubt pleasing the die hard fans that were in the audience. Her “Nothing But Love” World Tour starts in South Korea and begins its journey around the world.

However — I am still trying to figure out if I wanted to see this tour or not because…it’s Whitney Houston! I love Whitney — but I feel the the Whitney we know and love is long gone. Don’t believe me? Peep the clip above of her singing “I Will Always Love You” live at the concert. There are more clips of her performances from the launch, but it just hurts my heart.

And to top it off, I just JUST watched “The Bodyguard” and so this performance was fresh in my mind. Such a shame!!

Would you buy tickets to see Whitney despite the condition her voice is in now?

Whitney Houston Is Going On A World Tour! Aren’t You Excited? …

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Jan 26, 10
Whitney Houston has announced that she is going on a world tour, and is titling it the “Nothing But Love” tour. She also tapped photographer Randee St. Nicholas for this exclusive new photo that you see above.

The tour starts February 6th in South Korea, with US dates to be announced soon. She also is rolling out new singles — internationally, the album cut “Nothin’ But Love” and in the US, “Worth It”, neither of which particularly move me. Her album has only sold 2 million copies worldwide apparently…

The news comes as today is the re-release of the Whitney Houston debut album Whitney Houston, which is celebrating 25 years of launching Whitney’s music career. That is titled Whitney Houston: The Deluxe Anniversary Edition, and I talked about it previously here.

I’m NOT looking forward to being let down vocally and the tons of bootleg Youtube clips that people will be posting of her singing…

However, artists like Whitney, who traditionally hasn’t written her own material, really get a lot of their monies from endorsements, concerts, appearances, etc. I wonder if Whitney’s new deal has some sort of 360 clause?

Tour dates after the jump if you got cash to fly overseas and see her sweat hear Whitney “sing”:

Whitney Houston Is Celebrating Her 25th Anniversary!

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Jan 12, 10
How dope is this?! I love Whitney Houston, have all her albums. Even the new ones where she is sounding like her cousin Dionne Warwick. OLD Whitney was a true certified classic diva of all time LOL. Her songs, her voice…they still give me chills.

On January 26, Arista/Legacy is putting out a re-release of her classic debut album Whitney Houston. It’s been remastered and they’ve added new songs and there’s a bunch of other free stuff they are putting in there. Now THAT’S what I call a re-release. Please, anyone who has released an album in this decade and then put out another version 6 months later — please find a nice corner to sit in and take notes. Minus the drugs/Bobby/drama, Whitney was it!

I hope the rumors I’ve heard lately of her falling off the wagon are NOT true. Though I didn’t really LOVE I Look To You, it was a great comeback story of course, and I definitely was rooting for her in the beginning. ESPECIALLY to stay clean & sober. Music comes second, get your life together first. Be healthy, stay alive!

More details after the jump (tracklists, etc.)!

Coverage: Tiffany Evans Does Whitney Houston’s “I Have Nothing”

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Jan 4, 10
After getting into it with Rihanna last year over “Russian Roulette” and even challenging her to a sing-off of sorts, Tiffany Evans proves that she is the better vocalist (umm, as if there was any question!) with this rendition of Whitney Houston’s “I Have Nothing”.

There is no question that it takes to chops to even think about singing a Whitney song, but there was never a doubt in my mind that Tiffany could do it. Because I been on this girl since she was little and I even listened to “Promise Ring” all the time because she slayed Ciara on that joint handedly!

This cover was great, thanks reader Marc for sending it in. There are some minute pitch things but she said she just learned it and I am NOT that picky! This young generation…I hope they have more singers like this waiting in the wings.

I hear that BET is about to honor Whitney Houston with the Entertainment Award at the upcoming show in February with performances in tribute by Patti LaBelle, Jennifer Hudson and Mary J. Blige. I’d like to submit Tiffany for a slot too! Seriously!

Whitney Stumbles On “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” Live

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Nov 25, 09
Whitney Houston did “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” on the season finale of “Dancing With The Stars” (which Mya didn’t win, of course) and boy was it ROUGH. She also did “Million Dollar Bill” and while that was a tad bit better, it’s like saying “Oh I got shot but it didn’t hit any major arteries”.

Whitney left us breathless, as we watched her try to catch hers. The remix of “Million Dollar Bill” is pretty awful in my opinion — it takes all the faux-soul that the track had in it and replaces it for pulsing dance beats and synths, which makes her voice sound even worse. At least w/ the original we could say she sounds “soulful” or “bluesy”!

There were so many missed rifts, belts and hoarse whispers and outright giving up between these two performances that it broke my heart. The only thing classic about Whitney now is her copious sweating — other than that, who dis woman Harpo?!

Whitney’s sounding worse than Mariah, Mariah been gargling rocks. Ashanti is judging music competitions and Rihanna’s album is selling for 99 cents — is the end near?

Live Performances: Whitney Does “Million Dollar Bill” For The Brits

Written by The IPS in Blogs on Oct 19, 09
Besides missing her cue or whatnot at the beginning and her minor wardrobe malfunction towards the end, Whitney sounded pretty good (relative to her other performances of course), because lately she hasn’t been having the best time LOL.

This techno-mix doesn’t do anything for me though, because what gives this song its appeal to me was the whole throwback vibe of it. Whitney still manages to not make any major vocal gaffes overall though besides the usual weariness of her voice.

She performed on X-Factor which is akin to our American Idol and which Leona Lewis was a winner of by the way.
