Love the song, Love Chrisette, but I hate her new image. It just doesn’t suit her and her voice. Her image is adolescent, her voice is mature. I think her previous image with the long dark hair and classy clothing was better. Still love Chrisette, she is a major talent.

Yeah, this sounds like something John produced and would sing. This is one of the few songs on the great album that I don’t like. Something about it makes me want to go to sleep. However, her hair looks great.

I love this song and video. Her whole album is great to me. She’s so underrated as an artist because she sings mainly ballads which contain no booty shaking. Anyways I’m glad there are people out there that appreciate her music and if you don’t like her type of music please don’t come posting things about her being wack cause she’s far from it. I love her hair. That long hair made her look uncomfortable like she was trying to fit the the typical long hair image.

Its crazy how everybody “Loves” her music but nobody wants to go out and purchase her music. People get brainwashed by the crappy and so-so artist, Then the talented artist dont sell and eventually disappear because their not putting $ in labels pockets. This is real music, Stop letting the radio & B.E.T. brainwash you. Its a FACT that if you hear something over and over again eventually you will dig it. Her album is good. Great song!!!

Nice song and video, but I still want her single “I Am One” to get some love…it definitely is one of the best hidden tracks I’ve heard.

I absolutely LOVE her album!!! It has been out for how long now??? and this girl gets no respect! She is truly a raw talent and her music is the type of stuff that I go out and purchase and listen to in my car..Oh and “Golden” will be played @ my wedding..those of u who have the album know what I’m talking bout..LOL

I AM ANTM

Thursday, June 12, 2008 /

I have the album and LOVE it!! And I so agree with noap. So many people talk about this artist is better than that artist and how “real” they are, but they don’t ever buy their album or go to their concert.

25.

Her new look is too fierce. You better work, Chrisette!

The video makes me fall in love with the song all over again. I really hope more people recognize her. But from what I’ve seen her sales aren’t that bad.

#17 she did do a video for Be OK and it’s hot, check it out on youtube.com

#28 she told us that to at her concert last week here in Cleveland. I am so happy for her, I didn’t even know she went gold. It would be nice if her album went platinum, she deserves a platinum plack!!

32.

Elviz

#31 YEA.she does deserve a platinum plaque……the way she ripped it last on stage makes her a worthy contender for all awards. She really is a great performer.

I bought her cd when it came out. I thought she would have been plat by now.. but I know when she tours her shows are sold out because she came to the HOB and the tix we’re sould out.

#6(Ladyssolady)

John Legend wrote and produced this song for her.

Anyways,I like her new image because the new image might appeal to the younger audience and her voice will fit the mature older audience. She has to find a way to bridge both audiences to sell and be noticed.

Oh yeah why do people always say “real music”? There is no such thing is real music. If you hear a tune it’s real. Now it gets subjective and personal when you decide whether you like the song or how you can relate to the song or artist. The whole “real music” rant is retarded. Stop complaining about people liking music you considered to be whack and pay attention to the music you love. I swear people always focus more on what they hate than what they love. It’s like an obsession lol. Just enjoy the music you love folks. I started doing that and I’m fine. Anyways, Chrisette is beautiful talented young lady love her!

You go Chris!! I love her music and hopefully she’s taking a page out of The Roots’ book and is making her money touring..she’s always performing in DC and lots of the time her shows are sold out..Ive seen her in concert 3 times!! I guess Im a stan 4 artists that turn it out during a live performance…I saw Ledisi last week in concert and she is a definate MUST SEE …no studio help needed for her voice!

Thursday, June 12, 2008 /

her voice is beautiful. she’s beautiful. the short cut looks better than when she first go it but she’d look better w/more hair imo. i thought i was against her image to have the weave in the first place but it framed her big pretty face and head nicely. the white guy should do good for that MTV demographic or does she really eff w/white guys? maybe but i doubt it. nice video, she’s so classy and talented :) i seen her live and she sounded great oo!

I love her so much! I love her voice. It was also good to see an interracial couple in the video. I thought her new single was, “If I Had My Way?” They play it all the time on the R&B station here. Idk. I was looking forward to a video for it too.

OMG I sooo love her voice it’s so soothing like Billie Holliday. I love the song too and I like her hair better swooped down. What a beautiful video, It shows love comes in all races and Love has no color. I can’t wait to find REAL Love!

What a simple, yet well spoken message to a wonderful song. I can’t wait to see Ms. Michele, Raheem Devaughn, and Solange on their Soul Sessions tour this summer.

I love Chrisette Michelle, bought her album and saw her in concert a few times. However, this video makes little sense. The interracial relationship seemed forced, their isn’t a theme here, and the video looks extremely cheap. I guess people will continue sleeping on her at this rate. Her album is amazing.

That song has been out for a long time. The video has too. It was out at like the end of last year. I know stations in St. Louis play the song like it’s brand new, but I don’t mind it’s still good.

I love love love her music and new the new style. Her previous weaved out hair did not match her personality at all..but it is the entertainment industry, I’m glad to see her go back to her short look (which is what she’s always worn)!

The video, was mediocre. The white guy was very not so hot.

Cute white guy?
That comment just lets me know that you haven’t been anywhere near white men in a long time.

Thursday, June 12, 2008 /

I love this album its my number 2 so far this year with estelle at number one
In my opinion I kinda agree with the real music statement There are alot of what I like to call manufactured artist out there that labels create they can pick a person off the street who can notts sing and make them a star really throw in the make up hair wardrobe and they have machines in the studio to clean up their voices to go on a record I watched a docu about this and it was just amazing how easily this can be done you be surprised lol lol

Thank God, a lovely black women that DOESN’T have a head full of weave. She can sing and she isn’t a size -0.

It’s amazing how artist like her rarely get air play but Flow Rider’s “Shorty Get Low” is palyed every few second on the radio.

i guess if it works for you fine…for me, the video feels forced…her being with that white boy….feels like an obvious ploy to cross over…call me ur bitter black aunt….but with such a beautiful song….and beautiful message….a woman saying that her man is pure, unadulterated love…it would have been nice to see it be a brother…its just that on BET and other outlets we never see enough Black love…black men and women exalting each other….revering…nah….the man is usually the mandingo…the woman, the sexual object or conquest…so here we are in need of some refreshment from all that and she’s on what seems like a black college campus with….um…a white boy? He was just thrown in there….her record company was like’ hit the crossover’….such a sweet, quiet song….i kinda wanted to see Black love represented that way….not on some grind and fk me ish….like we usually do

sigh

Thursday, June 12, 2008 /

I’m sorry but I have to say this: Next time I see a fine brother on this site, I’m going to say, “Mmm. Cute black guy.” or “That’s a nice looking black guy.” or why not stop at that, I’ll say, “That black dude is fine.” Do you see how ignorant that sounds? You all sound like you never thought a white man could be attractive. And, even if you don’t think so it’s okay, it’s your opinion. Some people will hate you for your opinions, but by golly that’s their problem. Not yours! Stop acting like you are trying to be sly about paying a white man a compliment. It’s not such a bad thing. My gosh you are on a blog. So instead of referring to him as a white guy, why not refer to him in a respectful manner….in this case (in a few your opinions) a very nice looking man.

@66…talk about being DEEP! OMG it’s not that serious, he was obviously the only white person in the video so I don’t think making the distinction of him being white such a big deal.

Speaking of white and cute, could they have at least got someone attractive??

69.

divainva

Thursday, June 12, 2008 /

@ 66 . Everyone is entitled to their own opinion , you said it yoursef. I think you are exaggerating and blowing things up ,for no reason . Some women may not find “white” men attractive but thought he was cute , it’s that simple . I prefer dark men ,but If I see a light male that’s attractive I’ll say “he’s fine to be light” . I don’t think the person meant any harm or disrespect to the man . She just thought he was cute , we all do that .

I LOVE IT!! being a young black woman i really look up to women like Chrisette. She doesnt follow the trend, and instead makes her own. i love this song to death. Just goes to show that you dont have to shake everything, scream to the top of your lungs so everyone knows you can sing, just do you.

but ya i love this song !! so glad she made this video

I really love this song, it’s one of my favorites off her album. I like the video; simple has always been her style. The video doesn’t have to define the song…
I have a lot of respect for Chrisette and her image, she’s an artist worth looking up to and I hope she get the recognition to deserves…

P.S.
If Chrisette has a show near you, you should definitely go. I attended her show in the Chi last week and she’s even better live, plus she really makes an effort to hang out with all the fans after the show…

She has an old voice but I love it…..and I’ve seen a few Payne episodes and they were pretty funny……. props to her on the campaign for the show.

I like the song in her latest music video.

@ 69 saying someone is fine t be light is just as bad and ridiculous sounding as saying someone is fine to be dark or fine to be chubby or fine to be fill in the blank IMO.
