Despite releasing her current single ‘It Won’t Stop’ last year, singer-songwriter Seven Streeter shows no signs of slowing the promo campaign for the cut.
The rising star, who is signed to Chris Brown‘s CBE label (by way of Atlantic Records), stopped by ‘The Arsenio Hall Show’ last night to perform the Urban hit – which is lifted from debut EP ‘Call Me Crazy…But’.
Watch Streeter strut her stuff after the jump…
Between the shaky mic and shakier vocals, it’s fair to say Ms. Sevyn has had many a better showing.
Still, she remains – for us – one of female R&B’s brightest prospects. Here’s to better performances in the future.
I think the reason it was so bad was because it just didn’t sound like the studio version, which was more relaxed, way too much power for this song and CB should’ve performed with her, she did his part no Justice

^^^but he was not on the song originally. I agree she sang way too hard I’ve seen way better from her
Not her best performance BUT that EP is pretty amazing.
May not be her best, but I think she’s talented. That EP is on point. Also, that hair >>>>>> yes ma’am.
She looks amazing and im glad she stopped wearing that light ass foundation!!! #sevyn2014
she is doing way too much. Boo you aint no Beyonce, and if Kelly Rowland flopped as a solo act, you better believe you will too. Beyonce has influenced way too much, that these rnb girls need to study from somewhere else….hell, Rihanna understands that atleast
Wtf are you talking about? Sevyns main influences are Aaliyah, Brandy and Toni Braxton! That’s why so many people hate the hive because y’all are always doing the most. Beyonce is a mega talent, but there are other talented black females out there and all of them aren’t Beyonce wannabes contrary to popular belief! Have several seats in Madison Square Garden queen!
Sev did do too much vocally this time around, but we all know the girl can sing. There’s no doubting!

@ASHGINO@GMAIL.COM first off..I dont understand how you/or anyone else would consider Kelly Rowland’s solo career a flop post her Destiny’s Child days..I understand she never rose to Beyonce’s Level; however take a look at Coko’s, TBoz, Left Eye (RIP) solo attempts – i guess they would be considered failures.. Kelly has had tons of success a solo artist.. and EXACTLY @King Ellie!!!!! Sevyn always talks about Aaliyah as her inspiration.
Her approach was a little aggressive, but everyone slips up from time to time no biggie. I love her EP. It’s good from start to finish. If her album is as good then count me in.
She butchered her own song
One of my fav, but I changed channels quick
Don’t have to try so hard, or else keep writing
Did yall see Madonna with a ‘I woke up like this’ sweater on tho
I fail to see the correlation between this performance and Beyonce. Just stop it and let the new girls do their thing…
@XOXO yes she butcher her own song to pieces. I also like her ep but live performance was a no no. I don’t think she was trying to emulate Beyoncé at all well maybe 5% trying to sing/dance but it didn’t work.
I LOVE her and the EP!!

Shattered >>>>

She can really sing, so I’ll giver her a pass with this one. My favorite new R&B girl. Can’t wait for the album! 😀
Yeah, the EP is great. She doesn’t sing well live anymore. I’m not sure what happened. When she was with RichGirl, she would kill it live, but as a solo artist, I have not enjoyed her live performances. One thing is for sure.. she writes and records very well. Maybe she just isn’t comfortable up there by herself yet.. Who knows… Still love what she brings to the table.
Another studio “singer”…. She has cool songs but she is not a singer, every time I see her live it’s the same s***- shaky as phuck and just- no. She needs to really, really work on her vocals, she ain’t singing NOTHING HARD or vocally demanding so idk why it’s a struggle for her to deliver a quality performance. Tired of these new acts, they’re such a let down and a true testament to the current state of music: sad.
I liked it, it was a bit too Tamar, but good. I think she wanted to show that she can switch it up like the soul singers and also have soft smooth vocals like Aaliyah and Ashanti. This girl it IT, i keep hearing people wanting R&B to come back, yet they’re not supporting it.
Keep on pushin Sevyn
This Performance was a mess just like K.Michelle’s on arsenio , the problem she doesn’t sing from her diaphragm and strains to sing therefore no control over her voice.
The problem is the studio version is very smooth while this live version she was singing hard when she didn’t need to. Everyone has to learn how to get comfortable on stage so I’m sure we won’t see too many below average performances from her.
I still really enjoy this song and the EP. Sevyn has vocals.. I remember that from Rich Girl. Everybody has an off day. Her pen is crazy tho and she has a good package. She has a lot of promise
I think the issue is her voice may be a bit tired or strained. Normally she sounds really good. Her runs can be a bit all over the place but the quality of her voice seemed different than usual.
Nice performance. Its good to see these R&B artists pushing their albums and not giving up on promotion. I just saw Toni and Babyface on Ellen promoting theirs too.
