Tori takes over pop music scene

When I hear Tori Kelly sing, it’s one of the most amazing things I have ever heard. You rarely find raw talent these days and Tori is full of it.

Why should you listen to Tori Kelly? Her music is real. It’s inspirational and we need that in today’s music.

She knows who she is. She has experienced what she’s singing about and that’s really important.

Take all the gimmicks out of today’s music and you have Tori Kelly. Her music is refreshing and her vocal ability and skill is breathtaking.

She is a singer who can actually sing, a musician who can actually play an instrument and a songwriter who can actually write heartfelt, meaningful and relatable songs that make sense.

Kelly is by far the best vocalist and lyricist of our generation.

She could easily be placed right up there with the great singers like Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey and Celine Dion.

Kelly could also be compared to some of best songwriters of all time like Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder and Elton John.

She sings notes and runs that send chills down your spine, notes that most of today’s artists only dream of. She also writes songs that other artist could only dream of writing.

Kelly’s vocal gift is one of a kind. It’s unique, definitive and dope.

If you listen to her new album, your ears will thank you. It will remind you that this is what music should be.

Kelly is music.

Two weeks ago Kelly performed her second single, “Should’ve Been Us”, on MTV’s Video Music Awards.

She stole the show and blew the audience away with her powerhouse vocals. Kelly fell to her knees as she belted out the final notes of the song, resulting in a standing ovation.

The song jumped from number 64 to number seven  on iTunes’ charts minutes after her performance.

This talented artist is ready for her close-up.
