It’s a pretty well known fact that there are not many singers alive that can cover a Whitney Houston classic and pull it off. However that did not stop former commercial R&B favorite Ashanti from trying. At a recent concert, the signer who isn’t exactly known for her “powerful” voice stepped up to the plate, backed by the legendary producer David Foster, and belted out two of Miss Houston’s classics, “I Will Always Love You” and “I Have Nothing”. Check out some audience-filmed footage of her performance below…
What do you guys think? Did she pull it off or fail horribly?

[…] Not too many singers alive can match the power of vintage Whitney Houston, not even Whitney.

Ever since Whitney suffered that stroke (notice her tongue and speech), she hasn’t been able to deliver any solid vocal performances. Perhaps, she is finally realizing this and is pursuing other channels.

She did not pull it off… No one, I mean no one should be trying to sing Whitney’s classics. No one touches Whitney! No one ever was, is or will be better than Whitney when she was at her prime. That’s all I have to say.
