I like that she keeps it real and says what she wants to say, without trying to impress anyone. There is no realness these days. Celebs say what they want the public to hear. Like some Commercial people that will use every question to try to sell you some shit. she is very eloquent and I like that about her.

I forgot to add. Great interview, Angel!

Another great interview Angel. She let her guard down too, and I was happy to hear that she reads CL.

I think I might actually get this album.

I like her swag!

her voice is amazing. she reminds me of billy holiday. im so glad that this interview took place. she keeps it real and i like that about her.

much love & respect chrisette!!

Okay, Chrisette responded to my “marketable” comment. I still think she needs to drop a few pounds, but now I might actually listen to her music because she kept it real. I didnt even know size 14 was the average woman’s size.

Nice interview too. I was entertained.

Good interview, I really like her voice and she kept it real!

i read the interview and she seemed real and down to earth. i’m glad that she’s confident about her size i don’t think she’s heavy, but whatever she has talent and a great voice. we need to go back to where people can sing and not just look like uniformed barbie dolls, i will support your album when it comes out. i notice that society, as well as, the industry think that thick women represent all thick women, hopefully they would focus on the individual’s talent more so than how they look.

She and Amy Winehouse are such Nas stans lol. Nas had an album called I Am as well.

I see the Jill comparisons but for some reason she reminds me of a younger hip Ella Fitzgerald.

Great interview, she kept it real.

Nice interview Angel, well done!

I loooooooooved that interview. Chrisette is so down to earth and real. I love her. And I love how she responded to the weight question, “Ya Girl was probably my size” hahaha! She’s fly.

Oh yea, and her loud laugh was outta control, lol.

Nice Interview….Let me find out Angel is a young Wendy Williams….LOL….and ummm yea Chrisette was very real and seem cool Im not to fund of her sound but I’d buy her album for support anyways!

cool interview!

That’s why I love the girl, she’s honest, cool and respectful. I’m so feeling her personality!! Plus, she puts mofos in their place with class LMAO. That’s what I keep saying about people criticizing celebs looks, do you look better or does your significant other looks better?? I bet his girl is her size too LMAO!!!!!

I’m glad she cleared that up about that Toya girl, obviously it is a misunderstanding and she was gonna be listed in the cover’s “thank yous” anyway.

Great interview!!

Can she get some of Rihanna’s promo? I’m saying.

Nice interview! She seems really nice, hope the album does well.

Nice to hear positive things. i’m definitely gettin the album. I’m at work and can’t hear her song but I’ve heard a lot of good things about this girl. Good Luck, C. M.!!!

great interview… :0)

Brilliant interview, this is what the industry needs at the moment. I hope she is pushed with all the force and budget power they have. This is possibly the turning point in recent music

A bit like the Neo Soul resurgence.

Omigosh!!! she actually greww up listening to and being influenced by real music. She “wouldnt f known who Nas or Jay Z was” man tat was a breath of frESH AIR she is so untainted and REAL

I love her mindset.

that comment about the wonderful dancers was nuffin but the troof lol

i would def love to hear her collab with Amy winehouse and i can’t wait to check out her album.

gwan chrisette!

hmmmmmm……im little wary at the fact that she failed to acknowledge or show love to the folks that discovered her.well she’s alright, nothin groundbreaking, we already got jill scott(and she got that spot on lock)

yes, I’ll definitely be supporting this movement. i love her personality, honesty, and her respect to music(she actually can sing). and she doesn’t need to lose no weight…everybody doesn’t need to be a stick figure. if she gets promoted like she should and the cd has quality material…then she should be straight! It seems Def Jam has given Rihanna the whole promotion budget for 07/08! Even Ne-Yo didn’t get that much.LOL

I loooove it!! I will most definitely be coppin that album!!! She seems so real…like around the way gurl…just down to earth. This is my favorite interview by far!! Good job Angel!!!

Great intrveiw. I love her sound, and will be getting a copy of her cd when it comes out. She is such a talented sista!!!

^^^interview

Great interview, Angel. Chrisette sounds so nice.

I also like her album cover, very nice.

whoever thought she needed to lose weight is a victim to the media’s warped perception of what people should look like, i dont know where you all live, but when i walk down the street everybody doesn’t have perfect bodies

when you keep buying into these unrealistic images and start placin them on everybody else they have done their job, what should anyone’s weight have to do with their talent? what kinda sense would it make to buy or not buy someone’s music because of their size, that’s very shallow

anyway i thought it was a nice interview and good girl is a wonderful song

Love the interview!!!!

I will buy the entire album just for the song “If i had my way” - L.O.V.E. that song!!!!

Great Interview! I think she kept it real and she seems like a cool person. keep doing what you do and god bless

She’s mad gorgeous so she is marketable.

How did she diss Latoya??…I feel that if I do something genuinely nice for a person then I should NOT expect anything in return.
That means it didn’t come from the heart. I rather have favor then a hook up…there’s a difference

Favor is the desire someone has to help you succeed. It is when someone has a desire to participate in your future. We need those who can take us to where we haven’t been. Clearly, the other chick had her own selfish motives…but God will use anybody to get who he wants to be in a position where they deserve to be.

Chrisette stay humble

Good interview

Chrisette, thanks for not going into details of our dating life…! That’s nobodies business but ours! And, to the fool who wanted to know about the size 14…well, I love her just the way she is!

I love her size 14 and she loves my 14″ size! hehe!

Great interview! Very professional, showing folks how to act!

The interview was great! I love the comments she said about great dancers that was too funny! lol but very true! Her voice sounds so pure!
Good luck with everything CM!

We need more real women like that in the music business. Hope she doesn’t change when she gets real famous she is a rarity.

I really like this girl! She was so elegant and articulate. I love when people can speak and actually say something that makes sense.

Even when she was clowniong people (i.e. the dancers Ciara and ‘nem), she said what she needed to say in a very diplomatic way.

Her voice is wonderful. Her spirit is divine. She’ll go far!

To Angel, I think you do a cool job with interviews but one can always be better. To achieve, this, I think you should moniter the filler words that you use (ummm, un huh, so okay, etc.) that way you come off more polished.

Also, it is imperative that you follow up with what a person has just said. I think you are following your script too closely. Let the interviewee lead you into the next question sometimes. For instance, ask why and how so.

Lastly, ask the hard questions sometimes. Not just the fluff stuff.

Just a thing that needs to be said : there’s a difference between THICK (Chrisette) and obese (what Kelly Price used to be). Thick people are HEALTHY, obese people are not, so leave Chrisette alone about this cause she’s beautiful and healthy the way she is.

that dancer comment was hating. unnecessary

I loved the interview.Good one Angel.

hey Hood_shit (#37), of course every interview could get better, but this was by far one of Angel’s better interviews. Obviously you didn’t listen to it, because you can tell some of those questions weren’t scripted and she was going with the “vibe.” Chrisette seemed real relaxed with her. She even asked her about that one girl being dissed, how is that not a hard question?

I personally love Angel’s interview style because it reminds me that she’s real and “one of us.” Not some boogie-ass interviewer that the label paid to talk to an artist. Not to mention these interviews are time sensitive, so how she going to ask “how so” on everydamnthing?

She is only 22 (or 21 I think) and to be doing this while in college is admirable. So quit hating. Good Job Angel!

Oh and I’m coping that C.M. album when it comes out; just because of this interview.

the dancer comment was going at beyonce and ciara

and the strip pole comment by the interviewer was going at beyonce and rhianna

I don’t think the dancer comment was for Beyonce because Beyonce is not a real dancer with choreographies (booty shaking doesn’t count), people are more impressed with her voice.

I really enjoyed that interview. The both of you really seemed like you enjoyed speaking with each other. Chrissie, seems like a real down to earth person. I rarely buy cd’s( excluding Otis Redding hits), but I will cope her’s.

Great interview Angel!! Bump what others say. You doin the damn thing.

I like CM she is refreshingly honest and down to earth. I was on her myspace page listening to her songs she is good. I’ll buy her CD when it comes out.

Thanx for the love everyone! Chrisette was cool peoples. This was was actually one of my favorite interviews as well.

As for my interviewing style. I’m still kind of new at this, so ‘ums, ok, un huh and etc’ should be expected. LOL. I’m not trying to be the next Oprah or anything.

i love her realness! ma keeps it real, i hope she dont let the industry change her, cuz she is goin to be huge. she already has my money! cant wait for the album to drop.

I like how she set the record straight about the demo & Shalik Berry comment. I guess some people want banners & marching bands of thanks SMH the girl has barely dropped a single pple! Keep using the awesome voice u have Chrisette~

Angel, I definitely wasn’t trying to clown you. I think you do a good job but we can all aspire to greatness. Thats all ma!

Great Interview, I am really ready for this album now.

I can’t hear the audio, how do I listen to it?

I sooooo dig Chrisette. She is well spoken and her attitude is phenominal! I had planned to purchase the album already because of hearing her snipets on her myspace page, but if I didnt hear them before hand I would purchase her CD just off this interview!

Well Done Angel!

the whole dance thing was an indirect diss at ciara because she is the only mainstream, commmercial, successful female artist right now that dances and is acknowledge for how good she is at that craft. Of course there is janet and mya, but ciara is the only one right now.

POP music will always be POPular/mainstream, so if chrissette is a jazz/blues/soul singer, she can bet that she won’t have to compete with the ciara’s or beyonce’s because jazz/blues is not really POPular or impactful in the media or on the youth of today.

Why can’t everyone just take music for what it is? Ciara can sing, but I think she gets so much hate because she is not a SOUL singer persay; NOT every black female has to be a SOUL/RNB singer, why can’t they be pop/alternative singers?

I love chrisette’s first single “good girl” that song is my jam right now. I hope she is succesful because i think she is talented and she has a unique voice.

lol @ someone saying she was dissing ciara/beyonce.she just said there were a lot of great dancers, and she is right, no dissing, she just spitting the truth, truth hurts though.take it for what it is, she would dissing if she said their name.

@ Me

You sound like a hater..what she means is in today’s music alot female artist aren’t singers today..and you know who they are

chrisette kept it real in her interview I love that about her..lol..her voice is hot!..Young and old people would like her..trust me when you crossover like that you can be here for a long time

But we got ciara who is a good dancer we have evolved back into the dance culture like she said nothing wrong about that..it’s true look at the chicken noodle soup and the poole palace..lol…we don’s thave alot of singers out right now..teh only reigning supreme right now that’s popular for her singing is Beyonce

THE THING IS THAT CHRISETTE ISNT TRYING TO PLAY MAINSTREAM R&B SINGERS. AS YOU SEE EVERYONE WANTS TO DANCE NOWADAYS AND THEY DONT REALLY LISTEN TO WHATS REAL. DJ UNK?? 2 STEP……SNAP YOUR FINGERS AND LEAN BACK……PEOPLE NOW PREFER LISTENING TO CAM’RON OVER A NAS. MY COUSIN ONCE TOLD ME THAT JUELZ SANTANA WAS BETTER A BETTER MC THAN JAY-Z. WTF.

ANYWAY CHRISETTE WILL DO VERY WELL IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY. SHE IS A SWEET AND UNIQUE PERSON. PEOPLE WHO KNOW HER WILL TELL YOU THAT SHE IS THE SAME PERSON THAT SHE WAS YEARS AGO MINUS THE RECORD DEAL. SHE STILL STRUGGLES LIKE EVERYONE ELSE. GOD GOT HER WHERE SHE IS AND SHE WILL ALWAYS RISE TO THE TOP BECAUSE OF IT.

GO AHEAD CHRISSY AND DO YOUR THANG! LOVE YA

I smell a flop. Chrisette, your damn CD comes out in a month. I have not heard shit except for CL and that free download on iTunes. Rhinna’s CD has been getting promoted for months.

Uh huh. You should have signed with Hidden Beach if this is your style; at least they promote neo-soul.

Can’t we have Ciara AND Chrisette? ancing and music videos are a beautiful part of music culture too, look at Michael and Janet Jackson. I love this girl even more now though, I’m getting her album without a doubt, the collabos and her voice sound awesome!

P.S. To be anal about it Salaam Remi didn’t produce Lauryn’s first album, he produced “Fu-Gee-La” for The Fugees and he also produced half of Amy Winehouse’s album (and a few on her debut “Frank”) more recently. I always thought “Good Girl” was a Dr. Dre/Mark Batson production. Either way it’s H-O-T!

You know what Im going to be honest and keep it real. I love reading concreteloop.com because it brings alot of entertainment into my life, that is lacking. But when I go to read the comments that readers make up here, the majority of the comments I read are very disrespectful, and it seems as though half of you’ll live your lives putting down other people. I commend the people up here who leave positive comments. Those people aren’t ignorant to the fact that, we need to start bringing each other up as a people, instead of always “sticking one another out”.. I feel like people especially in this generation today make it seem as if it is a “TABOO” to make a MISTAKE, TO BE OVERWEIGHT, TO BE POOR, TO HAVE SHORT HAIR/LONG HAIR, DAMN TO JUST BE DIFFERENT…

WHAT A SELL OUT! jUSTIN TIMBERFAKE? OVER USHER/ MTV SUPPORTS ALL RACES/ JUST ASK JANET JACKSON THAT QUESTION-JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE SURE GOT HELP FROM MTV-YOU MORON- AND PLEASE BLACK PEPLE STOP SAYING THAT GETTING GHETTO IS BEING ROWDY-ALL PEOPLE FROM THE GHETTO ARE NOT ROWDY STUPID!!!!

I liked Chrisette a lot before this interview and now I’m indifferent about her. I would never choose MTV over BET after the way they treated Janet Jackson after nipplegate. Especially because years before that, they had presented her with the award as a MTV ICON. And the situation Justin Timberlake left her in? All blacks should be ashamed for supporting him in any fashion. The dancer comment was a bit irrelevant. We already know there are a lot of “singers” with no talent, but the fact of the situation is, no matter how great a voice, no one is going to sit through a concert with just a singer and a mic. It’s all marketing and it has obviously worked for the J.Lo’s and Ciara’s and Jackson’s.

I’m sort of excited about her album. She’s sweet but definately not afraid to speak her mind lol. I guess I wasn’t the only who thought of Ciara the moment she talked about artists who just dance lol. But Ciara really can sing, and yes it true that she may be very popular for her dance/performance, but she does take alot of bullshit for not being a SOUL singer, not being able to belt out so much like Fanny or Bey. Probably more hate than Rihanna/Cassie, who just can’t sing at all, recieve. Which I honestly don’t understand why, but whatever. Do your thang Ms. Chrissette.

Oh please it wasn’t a personal diss at Ciara. She was just speaking in general, Ciara or Mya, etc, chicks who can’t sing to save their lives but are incredible dancers. And for the males we have Omarion or Chris Brown great dancers terrible singers, then you have John Legend who doesn’t dance but is an incredible VOCALIST.

She did state that we are a dancing culture so she’s not HATING ON anyone she just implied there should be room for everyone. And even if the POP culture is more popular, if Alicia Keys and John Legend made it (they’re more successful than most “rnb/pop” acts) there’s room for old school artists like Chrisette because there’s a public for that music, so she definitely can make it big.

THERE ARE ALOT OF HATERS ON CONCRETELOOP. FOR ONE I DONT RESPECT BET OVER MTV EITHER. BET HAS GOTTEN VERY WATERED DOWN. I WATCH VH1 SOUL MORE THAN I WATCH ANYTHING ON BET. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO TEEN SUMMIT??? WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE SHOWS THEY HAD ON TO FEED THE MINDS OF BLACK CHILDREN. EVERYTIME I LOOK AT BET IT SEEMS LIKE I AM LOOKING AT AN EPISODE OF BET UNCUT. ALL YOU SEE ON BET IS BLACK PEOPLE ACTING AN ASS (COLLEGE HILL). BET CARES MORE ABOUT RATINGS. I DONT WATCH BET (MINUS THE GOSPEL AND BET JAZZ).

THERE IS A GROUP CALLED LITTLE BROTHER. A HIP HOP GROUP THAT BET DOESNT EVEN PLAY. THEY ACTUALLY SAID IT ON THEIR ALBUM. IM TIRED OF GOING ON BET AND SEEING THE SAME THANG OVER AND OVER. I RATHER WATCH VH1 SOUL WHO HAS A GREAT CATALOG OF SINGERS WHO DONT GET AS MUCH EXPOSURE.

AND TO JOSH R. CHRISETTE WAS ON TWO OF THE BIGGEST NAMES IN HIP HOP ALBUMS LAST YEAR. SHE IS GETTING EXPOSURE. JUST BECAUSE YOU DONT SEE HER DANCING NAKED ON STAGE AT A BET RIP THE RUNWAY SHOW DOESNT MEAN SHE ISNT GETTING EXPOSURE.

DAMN……..I SWEAR BLACKS HATE ON BLACKS VERY HARD. WE AS A CULTURE NEED TO CHANGE ALOT ABOUT US.

^^^ Exactly, at this point BET stands for “Black Embarrassing Themselves”. But blacks don’t own BET anymore so it figures.

And ANGEL, keep using that podcast thing (I think that’s the name), it’s better than anything you used before.

I definatly can not wait for Chrisette M. cd. I’m so tired of seeing women in skimpy outfits showing off pratically everything God gave them. She is a true artist. If you put her against todays singers in a pair of jeans, tshirt, and a ponytail, you will see alot of these “singers” are not quite where they think they are vocally. God bless you Chrisette and thank you for sharing your gift with me. Im not sure how long you’ve been trying to break into the business, but now that you’re Please Don’t Change. This is coming from a real woman. A lot of singers out like Beyonce started out promising they wouldn’t do this n that. And now….I don’t even have to say anymore. I’m just saying if you read this, know that being you is a beautiful thing and you are unique!!!

I just love how she kept it real. Cant be mad about that. I will definitely get her CD. She isn’t one of those fake ones that says one thing then does another. But if she start shedding pounds after saying she’s content with her size I will wonder about her then.

Nah, if she starts losing weight maybe that will be because her lifestyle will have changed (healthier) and she’ll tone her body a little like JHud.

I love her, imo she looks fine (not fat at all). Every female can’t be a size zero, she’s pretty and has a great voice..

this chick be hittin it!!! she’s jst wat black entertainment needed. sumtimes we jst need to bring it baq & her vocals have jst done that. Major prpz gurl!!! i realy jst luv her style!!

She’s the truth. Cool people fo’ sho!
~1505

She seems very down to earth and I love that. Her voice is undeniable, so I’ll definitely be gettting her cd.

That was good Angel, keep em coming!!!!!

I’m a believer man. Chrisette is a beast, the album cover is refreshing, and it is CLEAR she is a REAL woman! Beautiful! I don’t buy cds usually, but i might hit this one up in June.

Some idiot said she was hating on the other “singers” in the industry with her comments. she was not hating on the “dancers” that are clearly and sadly runnin things in the R&B world. Can you honestly say that half of these girls can really sing good ol’ soul r&b? kassie, ciera, rihanna, etc.? Pop fluff, that’s what that mess is! If she don’t watch it, Beyonce might plunge into this category as well.Chris was asked her opinion and answered it with class! I’m sure home girl WANTED to say “No, these heffers can’t SING! Are you crazy????”

trying to fit into this bullshit industry would be suicide for Chrisette’s career. this realness is gonna get home girl far! Don’t change for NOBODY, Chrisette!

Great interview. I’m feeling her.

SHE KEEPS IT REAL!!
Well you can let Toya know, that at this current moment, I’m late on my car note. I still live at home with mom. The label pays for me to get my hair and nails done. So the same people who aren’t providing her with any money right now. Aren’t providing me any money right now. And if I could pay her in anyway I would, but I don’t have anything to give her. So I don’t know what she’d like. Perhaps a thank you, which she will get that on the cd cover.

Favourite Movie? Clueless??
Hmmmmm Okay

ANY-HOO
LOVE HER SOUND!!!
DEF JAM BETTER PUT IN WORK TO PROMOTE HER MUSIC!!!

What’s up with her admitting that she’s late on a car payment for a mercedes and that she lives @ home? Someone’s priorites aren’t in order. She’s beautiful though, with a beautiful voice- I’ll buy her album.

Great interview Angel! She has a beautiful sound.

Chrisette Michelle has a voice reminiscent of the older days when music was conveyed from a REAL place within the soul. She has a song called MY JOY. It’s amazing. Folkish style…very simple. But you can tell that she knows the love of a father…Unfortunately I can’t relate but her song made me want my daughter to have that joy.

Her weight might be an issue for industry people…but it isn’t an issue for Jennifer Hudson or Queen Latifah! And even if it was why can’t we just be positive and hope that it won’t be for her. She’s cute, she has style, she’s talented and she has some depth to her.

I celebrate you Chrisette. “we ask ourselves who are we to be brilliant, talented, gorgeous and fabulous. Actually who are we not to be”.

Chrisette is what the industry needs.

LOOK OUT FOR DREA, “A GIFT 2 BE HEARD”…Peace

Hey Ms. Chrisette sounds amazing and she is extremely pretty. Thats cool that she reads CL. But yeah I really like her black version of christina aguilara style. Christina’s latest album has a very classical feel to it and I like them both. And Don’t loose or gain weight Ms. Chrisette. YOU ARE PERFECT! I mean really you are beautiful.

Great Intervire

your beautiful

I dont usually post here but, that was a really good interview…I like Chrisette’s personality…She was really honest too.
