Knowles voice is hoarse.
The audience asked for so many repeated encores that Mr. Knowles ran out of songs and stories.
There is a distinctiveness about Mr. Knowles that lifts him from the rank and file of the flat average of single male entertainers working in one.
Knowles' professional assets seem to consist of a hoarse voice, an odd comedy method and a makeup that stands between the grotesque and the straight.
