10 NON-SINGING ASS SINGERS THAT PEOPLE SWEAR CAN SING

[Demonic Jenkins]

The list is trash.

Musiq soul child can definitely sing. How can you listen to love and say he can't sing?

I agree with Keith sweat.
Chris brown is ok but he can't hit high notes without auto tune

Alicia can sing she just got a hoarse type voice

Mario can sing his ass off I'm still disgusted at dude that said that. He can sing better than a few nikkas that are eating out there. He would kill Chris brown live no studio.

The difference between having the ability to sing and having the ability to make good music.....

 

[director_of_bands]

why go at the few black RnB artists we had when cacs have now stolen RnB from us? that publication is borderline on some bullsht and we better not find out its run by cacs

 

[Oceanicpuppy]

Can we go oldschool non-singing ass nikkas?

Patti La Belle.

Negged you may not like her tone but bish is one of the best out there. Easily Out sung Mariah live on stage on "got to be real"

The difference between having the ability to sing and having the ability to make good music.....

Exactly, lets be real here...

Being able to sing is not nearly as markettable today as it was in the 60s.

You can have everything going for you except for actual singing talent and become a star in 2016
On the contrary, if all you bring to the table is an amazing voice, you will find it much harder to make it big.

Thank God music is timeless, if i'm not feeling this era, I can listen to an era I actually enjoy

It's a website, black owned, black writers, for black people.

Yall can say yall hate beyonce for various reasons, but this shyt about not beig able to sing just makes yall sound retarded.

Where are all the people like lead singers of rock bands? Where is britney spears? Them males country singers with deep voices?

Yea, I wouldn't put Beyonce on that list. Her voice isn't the most powerful, but she has great voice control, and vocal acrobatics, smooth transitions from chest to head voice... Her voice doesn't resonate like the elites class tho.

 

[Demonic Jenkins]

Came in expecting Beyonce to be at the top spot, instead it's Jo Jo Legend..........

the fukk wrong with you dudes....beyonce one of the best female vocalists ever...

 

[Demonic Jenkins]

....and that shyt live on the spot...no studio. bytch got pipes

The weekend
Drake
Jhene

Have yet to see a good live performance from her...........

Mocking Keith's Sweat's voice and style is cliche at this point. Nobody holds him up as a this great singer. Who is really talking about Slim and Total and Ralph and Musiq in 2016? And I never recall any of them being known for their vocal prowess. Mary J's appeal is all about her relatability. Legend and Keys are known for their overall artistry not just their singing. Carl Thomas and Amerie? Seriously?

The sad thing is that none of these artists are current. They had to mine the previous two decades because no one even cares about this stuff today. You don't even have to try to act like you can sing in this current climate.

If you don't know the difference between having an aesthetically pleasing voice versus the ability to technically control your voice then you don't belong in this thread honestly.

This. Theres a big difference between the two, and people who sing regularly or professionally can TELL the difference, too.

That said...no, Alicia Keys cannot sing well, and neither can Keyshia Cole. Like Mary J, people love them for what they emote aesthetically.

And whoever said Monica can't sing.... I've heard her sing live in church, a capella, THIS year...that woman can blow AND she fine.

 

[InDePickWest]

Jhene (although I like her voice)
Trey Songz
Fruits Piru
Omarion
Mila J
August Alsina (WHOREABLE)

Spoiler

Leave my baby Robyn F. the fukk alone
She never claimed to be a powerhouse niccas

 

[PhonZhi]

Babyface and Raphael Saadiq should be on the list

Goat level songwriters but subpar singers

 

[PhonZhi]

@people in here saying Beyonce and Monica cant sing

 

[NormanConnors]

The best vocal performance I heard in years was Faith singing acapella..

Mary can sing but she kind of lost her abilities..her early 411 stuff was great..

Nah Mary is a MUCH better singer now compared to when she first started
