1
This is a major moment.
2
This is the coolest thing I've ever heard in my life.
3
That's the coolest thing I've ever heard.
4
You want me to do it again?
5
Yeah.
6
I want to know how it feels.
7
Ebro!
8
Ebro, Ebro, Ebro.
9
And Ariana Grande.
10
That's sick.
11
Can you make me one of those next time I come here?
12
What?
13
We didn't make an Ariana Grande one?
14
How does it feel to hear your name like that?
15
That's really cool.
16
You told me your fans were ready for this album.
17
Yeah.
18
And you're very relieved of how it's being received.
19
Yeah.
20
Why?
21
Why?
22
Well, I think because they know who I am deep down
23
and I think they've heard like my Christmas EP
24
that I made a few years ago and like they know what I've been craving to do.
25
They know what I've been wanting to make for a very long time.
26
I played the game, you know what I mean?
27
I've made the pop bangers for a while and like I've done that and I wanted to do something different, something that felt a little bit more like home,
28
a little bit more like what's in here, you know, what's in like me as a person and this really feels like that.
29
Like, this feels like my DNA.
30
So seeing them understand it, it's really nice, yeah.
31
It's just in this dreamy or more mature placement with, like, a bunch of harmonies.
32
Like, vocal arrangement is my favorite thing in the world and being able to do that and just, like, keep it chill and easy and smooth and bouncy and have them really f* with it,
33
I'm so grateful.
34
I'm so happy they understand it.
35
I saw you last night on Fallon, crushing it with the roots.
36
Thank you.
37
With your Aretha Franklin tribute.
38
Thank you.
39
But as a vocalist, how tough is a moment like that when you're going to tribute one of the greatest?
40
It's hard.
41
Well, it's hard, and it's emotional.
42
And when I was rehearsing it with them backstage, I was, like, crying.
43
It's very hard.
44
But I was like, this is coming from a place of love, and, you know, Quest loves you holding my hand and telling me it's okay.
45
He's the greatest, right?
46
Quest is the best.
47
The best.
48
He's so sweet.
49
He was like, girl, he was like, you have to do this you know we live in a time right now where everybody's like
50
so culturally sensitive cultural appropriation you hear these things right um
51
but you're an artist that's always paid uh respect and homage
52
so i know
53
that was probably nerve -wracking too yeah of course i tried
54
to be respectful of course you know i wanted to celebrate her
55
and not like have
56
that you know what i mean like some negative cloud over
57
yeah i wanted to not have it be misinterpreted i just wanted to celebrate her
58
and um be able to do something beautiful how much time
59
did you have to prepare oh like 15 minutes they were
60
like girl room now let's go they were like come on you're doing this i was like oh my god
61
and i was crying it was
62
and we were all like the background singers those women are
63
so sweet i love them
64
so much i'm sad i didn't get their numbers they're the nicest we had
65
so much fun the album opens up with this uh raindrops yeah on an angel cry no please explain Okay, so that is from a song from,
66
like, the 50s or, like, the 60s, and it's just, like, a random part that was, like, in my head when I thought the album was done,
67
and I was like, you know what, maybe we could do something with this, like, chop it up and make a beat out of it or something, like, sample, do some dope, like, old school, whatever.
68
um so i went in the booth and i sang it acapella
69
and i came out and i was with max and ilia
70
and savin and um max was like we're not touching
71
that he was like that's just exactly how that is
72
and then we looked at we looked it up to see who had written it
73
because we were like we're obviously gonna have to figure you know figure this out later yeah um
74
and uh charlie colello who happened to be one of my grandpa's uh closest friends from florida uh wrote on
75
that song with really with bob gaudio yeah it was really it's just really weird
76
and i was like very moved by
77
that i felt like he was like a straight spiritual connection
78
to me yeah i was a mess i cried all day
79
for like two days how does it work with you um
80
when you sit down with somebody like pharrell
81
because pharrell's on what seven records on here i think yeah i counted uh maybe more
82
but yeah does it one way that you guys work together?
83
I mean, the way Pharrell works, he's such a genius.
84
He's so quirky and amazing and brilliant.
85
He'll be like, how are you doing?
86
Do you mind if we talk a little first?
87
When we first started working together, he'd be like, we'd talk about your personal life a little bit, and we would be talking, and we'd be mid -conversation, and he would start playing a chord progression.
88
And I'd be like, what the is this man doing?
89
And in 40 minutes, we had something going.
90
Yo, you're on Beats One.
91
The world's tuned in.
92
What up, bro?
93
We called you to celebrate you and all this amazing music you put on Ariana Grande's album, man.
94
I'm super grateful because I keep coming into contact with these really special
95
and rare people who inspire me and push me to try to create a canvas for their Mona Lisa.
96
Now, P, I think it's an amazing time for not only vocalists, but also R &B.
97
Talk about this voice on this young lady, because you've worked with a lot of voices.
98
The vocal acrobatics that she's capable of is pretty unprecedented, bro.
99
Oh, yeah.
100
Naturally, she's a student and is a quick study.
101
She knows the most sparkly parts of, like, really integral runs.
102
What matters.
103
Yeah, she knows.
104
So I hope everyone enjoys it.
105
We love you, Pharrell.
106
We love you.
107
Yeah, love.
108
You've been through not only personal stuff with the relationship, but what took place in Manchester also was heavy, heavy, heavy stuff for the world.
109
You haven't shied away of trying to heal and contribute your spirit
110
and soul to helping everybody keep their heads up and stay strong.
111
I was saying that you went and had sat and had therapy
112
and have really been working through recovering from what took place in Manchester with your fans, with your family, with yourself.
113
it's just about like um like just being there for each other and like helping each other through
114
scary times and like anxiety and you know some dark out there man we just have to like
115
be there for each other as much as we can because you never know you know so
116
just wanted to do something to make people feel good mental health is
117
so important um And people don't pay enough mind to it because we have things to do.
118
You try not to give in to fear because obviously that's the whole point of being here.
119
That was the point of finishing my tour.
120
It was to set an example for my fans who were fearless enough to show up to the f*ing show.
121
It's like, are you kidding?
122
You know, you want to set the same example.
123
You want to keep going.
124
And, you know, you want to just not be afraid because, of course, that's what they want and if you give them
125
that then they've won but we did everything to not
126
and we still do everything to not but the truth is is
127
that it's scary it's scary going anywhere and you look at places differently and traveling
128
and you um you know i don't like to have security
129
come with me everywhere i don't like those things it makes me feel inhuman it makes me feel weird
130
and i don't like it it may i know people just trying to take care of me
131
but i want to escape with my friends and run around
132
and be free and like blah blah blah
133
but like you think about it differently when like
134
that happens you don't want to give in you don't want to be afraid
135
but you know it's still there you know
136
i'm so sorry i think it's amazing it's fearless i think it's strong um

Voor wie is deze video geschikt?
Deze video is perfect voor intermediate en gevorderde Engelsleerders die hun spreekvaardigheid willen verbeteren, vooral met schaduwspreken. Het past ook bij wie IELTS spreekvaardigheid oefenen wil, omdat de dialoog natuurlijk en conversatief is, met een mix van informele en iets formele uitingen. De snelle wisselingen tussen vragen en antwoorden helpen om het luisteren en reageren te trainen, een cruciaal onderdeel van het spreken.
Woorden en idiomen om te onthouden
- Pop bangers: Erg populaire, energieke popsongs. Voorbeeld: "Ze maakte veel pop bangers voordat ze dit album maakte."
- Crushing it: Erg goed doen. Voorbeeld: "Ze was gisteravond op Fallon en crushde het met haar optreden."
- Played the game: De regels volgen om te slagen. Voorbeeld: "Ze speelde de game en maakte de muziek die de industrie verwachtte, voordat ze haar eigen stijl ontplooide."
- Cultural appropriation: Het overnemen van elementen uit een andere cultuur zonder respect. Dit is een veelgebruikt term in hedendaagse gesprekken.
Hoe de accent goed te krijgen
Ariana Grande spreekt met een heldere, Amerikaanse accent, met een sterke nadruk op intonatie om emotie te brengen. Om haar accent na te bootsen met schaduw spreken, let op:
- De snelle, vlotte uitspraak van korte woorden zoals "like" en "yeah" – ze worden vaak samengevoegd met de volgende woord. Bijvoorbeeld: "I wanted to do something different" klinkt bijna als "I wanted t' do something different".
- De hoge toon bij vragen en verrassing, zoals in "Ebro! Ebro, Ebro, Ebro." Hier verhoogt ze haar stem om opwinding te tonen.
- De zachte uitspraak van "th" in woorden als "the" en "that" – probeer niet te hard op deze geluiden te drukken, maar laat ze vloeibaar zijn.
Grammatica in deze video
De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:
| Structuur | In de video |
|---|---|
| Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — iets dat eerder begon en nog bezig is | I've been craving · I've been wanting · have really been working |
| Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog telt | I've ever heard · they've heard · I've made |
| Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doet | being received · be misinterpreted |
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
