Lol right

She really didn't 😂😂😂

Yep. And she became one the best singer/rapper of her generation and after

ikr

lol she's the truth

She went on to sell her soul for fame unfortunately, God loves you, if you're living in sin He won’t reject you if you are willing to repent and stop sinning. all you have to do is acknowledge that you are a sinner who needs forgiveness from Lord Jesus Christ the true God. If you ask for forgiveness sincerely, He will forgive you and guide you, in The Mighty Name of Lord Jesus Christ Amen. Remember that sin leads to Hell🔥🔥🔥. Do not idolise celebrities or your loved ones. Worship the Lord Jesus Christ in spirit and truth! Roman Catholicism is a lie from hell. Don't believe in it and don't stick to anything that goes against the Bible. Exodus 20:4 tells us not to make images to bow down to! Focus solely on The Lord Jesus Christ, not worshiping celebrities, music, movies, television, other forms of entertainment. He promises that there is more to life than sex outside of marriage, money, parties, homosexuality and entertainment. Hell is real, repent of your sins, confess your sins, and ask God for forgiveness. The people who don’t believe the Gospel will greatly and unpleasantly be surprised on Judgment Day. Hell is very hot people, repent! In the mighty Name of the Lord Jesus Christ! Islam, Catholicism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Santa Clausism, Confucianism, Halloweenism, Harry Potterism, Racism, Donald Trumpism, Joe Bidenism, vanity, pride and other non-Christian religions and idols lead to hell, do not believe the public figures, believe in the Almighty God who begot Lord Jesus Christ. God doesn’t need a woman to have biological Son, He is God. I choose to believe in a God who can do anything and everything, a God who has infinite power to beget a Son without a woman.

I didn’t get why they were booing. That part wasn’t bad at all

Because the Apollo was ruthless, they were not there to pass out participation trophies. But if you could handle it, you left a star. She came back and slayed. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oc9nmtt9x868m4k.html

And also probably not the best song for her voice

Imagine if the crowd were white people too.

People need to be exposed to this stuff, even kids, so that they become tough and not little snowflakes like they are today. You know, offended by everything and everyone.

When she picked up that mic she knew she had won the crowd back. Amazing moment.

She had the last laugh 😅

Uh...its the apollo

Now she's a homeless bum here in New Jersey

and ur clearly mad

+Ashley Percival And do you even realize why, if she is??

+Ashley Percival shame if it's true.

Yeah lol she got into drugs and lol it is true

This is what made her an icon. She said it herself.

True. She was so unnerved.

A similar thing happened to me back in junior high. Years later I sang on stage and everybody loved it. (I'm a musician)

Americans

This was the way it was back then it actually pushed many artist to be better performers and entertainers. Showtime at the Apollo meant bring it like it’s your last performance! Sadly today we get a lot of mediocre talent with attitude and no humility.

Royalty? Talent yes. But why tf do yall people look at musicians and celebrities as being “royalty” then proceed to bow down to the ground they walk. When they are just normal people, with a talent other normal people like to hear and watch. Nothing more.

@@AV-bz2zv At least she has talent, why people bow down to actual 'Royalty' is beyond me. All they do is force everyone to pay them millions in taxes and sit about in their castles and mansions.

OMG, LITERALLY????????!!!!!!!!

The Apollo audience is RUTHLESS

stop the cap

Yrs later the boo-ers brought her music hahahhhhh

yeah she wasss off pitch a bit at the start but jesus christ. ive seen videos of kids singing cringy songs off tune and people cheering despite definitely not liking it. shes a kid. let her improve. the booing mustve motivated her to do better and prove them wrong because you can see her improving 1/3rd through the song

man that takes being tuff to sing BETTER after you get booed.

She was nervous lol

I don't think she even noticed. She was stuck in her own world.

Never gonna give you up

Silent Night money aint crap!!!!!

Never been

True. She's a warrior. It could have made her quit tho. In any case it's really painful to watch. Adults booing a 13 year old that's just not reasonable or appropriate.

The Apollo theater is notorious for harsh, honest feedback, so all contestants know this up front. She handled it like a champ & I bet it made her work that much harder to become one of the greats

Black people lmao

So you deleted your other comment because of my reply? Are you serious? How childish

I swear smh

True... as adults they should've clapped and encouraged her, she's only 13, obvious she would be intimidated.

Agreed

agree

there were no demonic spirits.it's the Apollo and they will let you know if you are bad as soon you open your mouth.

@@1talldaddy She wasn’t even bad tho they instantly wrote her off. I read another comment that said she knew they would this and used this as away to stop being shy. Overall this prob helped her a lot but imagine she quit, those same souls that today prob listen to TMOLH and it changed their life, they almost fucked it up.

It's the Apollo. This is normal behavior.

@@natenobles4372 it’s just how the APOLLO is many famous artists today have been booed.

@@genericperson1002 yeah that’s just life tbh everything ain’t smiles but if her singing was instantly booed what did they usually enjoy ? The fact they booed isn’t what’s weird just how quick they gave up.

she was extremely fazed. she just persevered. Bravery is not the absence of fear but the triumph over it.

I think its edited

Exactly

@@hugheggs Well said!!

Brought tears to my eyes 🙌

"what kind of grown ass adult boos a child?" - truth

Rikishade1 she's a racist and should get booed, no talent then, and no talent now.

Rikishade1 *rolls eyes* This was at the Apollo Theater. If you weren't good, the audience let you know. Also if you listen close, you can hear people calling Lauryn's name and cheering her on. They knew she wasn't the best, but she had potential.

Check out Dave Chappelle on Inside the Actor's Studio... he talks about getting booed offstage at the Apollo at age 14.

This was Apollo; they knew what they were walking into when they walked on that stage. Apollo was the first American Idol and the audiance acted like Simon lol

why a "black artist" ? hahahah i never understood that, its like saying "celine dion is an influential white artist". its TRUE but unnecessary lol, anyways not trying to offend you! sorry xD but why not just an artist :P ?

Brittany efe because SHES BLACK !

Brittany efe THE MUSIC SHE CREATED AND IS SINGING IS APART OF OUR CULTURE THIS IS WHY SHE IS AN INFLUENTIAL BLACK ARTIST NOT JUST AN ARTIST ITS A CULTURE JUST LIKE WE HAVE BLACK HISTORY AND NOT JUST HISTORY BECAUSE WE ARE NOT AMERICANS WE ARE VICTUMS OF AMERICANISM AND THEIR HYPOCRISY AS A NATION

Back then at places light that they booed the crap out of you and don't care. Now we just let them do their thing and keep our thoughts to ourself.

@@zorentucker5225 *like that* and *ourselves* . 😂😂😂😂

If that's all it takes to traumatize kids where you come from you really aren't gonna make it through what this world is about to go through 😆

Seemed like she even took some energy from all that noise and turned it around.

@@wordivore true

Word

She pass the test

I am sorry but in my honest opinion this is why some of us black people can't get along with other black people because other black people are very ungrateful with their no class closed minded attitude and it's obvious why Laryn Hill prove all of them dead wrong.

@L W Yes, I think it's different. I was watching the Apollo a couple years ago when Steve was hosting, and several kids came on. Some had acts that weren't that great and the audience would just cheer them on but not give them a final vote. Lol New Yorkers can be very blunt, but I think people are changing to be kind.

That's apollo.....I've seen them boo just about everyone

being booed actually help and is truth this younger generations is being cuddled and rather suppress opinions and be lied to such a shame

Black

Welcome to 1987..when ppl didnt gaf about your feelings.. not even of a kid👍🏾..i miss my decade😥

Of course people always ditch out what they can’t handle themselves

Amateur Night at the Apollo its always been tradition to boo the amateurs. But you a youngin. You dont know about that.

Too true.

What a difference 35 years make. Today's 13 year olds, would be an emotional wreck, needing 3 therapists to get over the crueltie of the crowed.

I would say 100%

Terrible men

what if they didnt boo her and she thought she did good job and not improve and never became famous? so that means we would never heard from her?

That's what you do at the Apollo you boo bad performances, people got to stop being snowflakes and get a damn backbone we too soft today.

@@pawfruit4095 so you think the audience was a 100% men huh

@fabian f , thank you . It's a contestant show that the winner and losers are predicated on the audiences cheers and boos . There are no participation prizes at the World Famous Apollo Theater .

Big dawg shit 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🤣 I love that part

That saved her, the energy kinda changed after that.

Wowwwwwww

Yea, and right after a guest yelled something about the mic. Lol

Calm down. It's the Apollo where they encourage the audience to boo if they don't like it

I think your looking at it wrong. It was learning to overcome the boos that made her strong. She did start off weak. We've taken away all the hardship and obstacles to overcome for young people and they've responded by becoming a bunch of wet noodles 😄

Jessica Marie and at the end of her performance!!!

Jessica Marie oooooouchh!!😀

Jessica Marie You got that right

It was because she picked a song that’s out of her range vocally. My dad always told me that it’s very important to know what to sing and what not to sing.

u know why 🥴

Fr

They weren't haters. It was deeper than that. That was the legacy of the Apollo. If you impressed them then you were the real deal. If you sucked no one coddled you (as opposed to now). Their stance was people should love you enough to not let you come there before you're ready. They knew that oftentimes Black people only get one chance, so learn to make it count. Ain't nobody got time to mess around. 😉

@chrn byrn for booing a child

Okay her age doesn't have anything to do with her founding good or bad normally a thirteen-year-old would definitely have a singing voice if they're going to have one

@@AnimalLover-- You are making no sense. The original comment acknowledges she's 13 and also says she independently sounds good. This is without autotune and this is a very hard song to sing. Also, you can learn to sing at any age. Some people are born with a good voice, but in order to be great at singing, you have to work hard and develop the talent over time. Name any popular artist known for their vocal ability and they will tell you how hard they worked as adults to keep their talent or learn how to sing properly.

She was just nervous

If you suck, you suck. At the start she Did suck, but she won them back. This is the Apollo not your living room. This is NOT charity.

I live in Jacksonville and we have a similar venue called "The Ritz" and they remind the audience each time not to boo the children.

mrbrockpeters Yeah, I hear ya, but there's a difference between constructive critique and BOOING. Booing is not constructive. It's just mean-spirited and childish, really. And calling that out does not equate to weakness. I know people and different cultures have different views on things, but we're talking about kids here, man. At least Steve Harvey would disagree with you, otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered instructing the audience the way he did. But my guess is that few people would side with what you're saying. I mean, I understand where you're coming from, and yeah, people are too far in there feelings these days, but this is different to me.

mrbrockpeters I can see some merit in that. I suppose it would harden a person in some ways. It just seems harsh to project kids to that. Adults are another matter altogether.

They wouldn't do that at star search and not even American Idol. She has a wonderful voice.
