At least she isn't lip synching. I'd rather hear bad singing then moving lips over a produced song.

:childplease:

There are good , great singers who don't lip sync. Or at least don't do it a lot and have many great live vocal performances

Give me a lip synced performance with great energy/ choreography over this

So you do acknowledge 1 Thing is just her screaming

Good

Now imagine someone capable of singing the record with finesse lol


If you enjoy her music cool

But objectively speaking she is not a good singer. Never has been

Snoh Aalegra is an example of a good singer who wouldn't be classified as a powerhouse

Amerie is serviceable, maybe

Other artist aside, let's call a spade a spade
I never said she’s a great singer. I just like her music. 1 thing was good for her and I wouldn’t change it one bit. I’m just laughing because it’s not like she sounds way different than back in the day. Like she sounds like she always sounded and she looks good. I can appreciate music and musicians for what they are.. I’m tired of trying to rank shyt all the time lol. Just want to enjoy music for what it is now. It’s why I can listen to a ton of underground or not well known music with no problems

Fact


Be like “It’s ok, we both can’t sing but you went platinum” :wow:
Amarie was a vibe though. Why Cant we Fall in love?” was like the official anthem for Chiney Jamaicans in Toronto. We used to go up there to holla at baddies.

nikkas talk about Passport bros in the DR low key there was cooperative ass stunna’s in T Dot.

Yea she's always sounded like this

Think some ppl were just expecting more of this woman who was supposedly targeted, stifled and sabotaged

I myself expected this ....Always thought she was a bad singer...peeped Rich Harrison who was the sole/writer on most her first, second album, was the brains ...so I was
never was on the wagon , sold on her talent

And considering she was barely going gold in her "prime"...has only 2 or 3 hits...this recent out pouring fanfare is sus to me

:yeshrug:

But like I said cool you enjoy her...

At 47????


Can a person who never played the piano before learn to play at 45-47 (Amerie 45 years old)? Yes
Can a person who never boxed a day in their life before, learn to box at the age of 45-47? Yes
Can a person who could never swim before learn at 45-47? Yes
Can a "Flabby and Sick" person who never lifted weights before, get in shape at 45-47? Yes

The Vocal cords are muscles that can be trained, and strengthened, (IMPROVED), with correct vocal technique.

Amerie can already "Sing" better than the average person, with proper vocal technique she can strengthen her vocal cords, improve vocal coordination, vocal stamina, register blending, and add actual resonance to her current "Thin" Vocals, to improve the over-all sound of it.

There are "World Class" singers, that got that way though vocal training.

There are also "World Class" singers that don't use proper vocal technique/coordination, and end up damaging their voices.
They can "No Longer Sing".
They require "Vocal Rehabilitation", which teaches them how to Sing properly, without strain/damage to the vocal cords/folds.

Her "Age" isn't the issue, her lack of proper Vocal Technique is.

Will Vocal training make her into Aretha or Whitney? NO

But will it make Amerie sound WAY Better than she does now? Yes

Nostalgia. Think of the flabby heads who grew up to her. I associate her shyt with Chiney and Coolie Canadian chicks.


I don’t know how I heard it but I heard a Drake/ Summer Walker collab and it was standard shytty whisper vocals basically saying how she needed to basically fukk

Shorty said she needed some Love Drake said she needed some dikk


I knew what the song was gonna be about and how it was gonna sound before I heard it.


People are tired of shyt like that same shyt everysong is about fukking no random puppy dog style love songs everyone is Red pilled as shyt.
