Hsamid Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 (edited) Wait, I listened to that "loving you" cover on Stevie Mackeys channel a while back and loved it (listen to it if you havent already, its one of the better renditions out there) Cant believe I didn't realize that was the same person, like, the name didn't even sound familiar at all. Add meeeeeee. She really does have a similar skillet to Makenzie Thomas though. The agility, transitions and headvoice/whistle register. Although tonally I do think they're pretty different. Makenzie's is soft as butter while Checi's has a bit more of a sharp, piercing quality. Her voice really cuts through but she seems to have quite a bit of tonal variety which I always really like in singers. I think I'll be active in this fan thread seeing as I'm already familiar with her. Edited August 9 by Hsamid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just love the musical choices she does with her runs + tone, it's so current and effortless to her. She reminds me alot of Candice Boyd (Runner-up of S1 of The Four) in terms of her runs (which I also love lol), so I cannot wait to see what she could potentially do this season!!! 7 hours ago, Ethan F-R said: Add Me!

StarWalker1 Posted August 28 Author Share Posted August 28 Sneak Peak Description of Chechi's audition! FOUR-CHAIR-TURN! “What planet are you from?!” There were a few four-chair-turns throughout this taping. However, this was the longest one that occured because the coaches had so much to say. Each coach fiercely fought to get this artist on their Teams. This particular artist started her song off on a whistle note which is extremely hard to do. After her Blind Audition, Niall’s first words were “what planet are you from?” This artist told her story of how she’s from Nigeria and currently lives in Los Angeles. The coaches were stunned that she’s not already signed. She said she started getting compared to a “baby Whitney ” and she tried to take-on her own identity. She sang as a backup singer and now is working on producing her own album. John told her that it’s artists like her that make “The Voice” because they are so honored to have talent of her caliber.
