Nope...I believe its Vibrato, must be a bit of style picked up from the
likes of Miss Houston and the sucky Puffy's Posse which seems to be an
unfortunate trait of (ahem) "modern"...rather, contemporary Mtv-ified R&B.
Why aren't there shout/screamers like Redding, Connley, Pickett...anymore?
Who is responsible for all the shit thats pasted off as soul lately?  Or
maybe what/who has got the GOOD soul going on RIGHT NOW...not counting the
Desco label, or Miss Hill.
