[Pinyapplesuckas]

yo did this thread go by with not one mention of ASHANTI?


song rides but her singing is flat af fukk every time she holds a note more than second but we was young

opinions vary

i will say i don't think it's necessary to tear your vocal cords to be certified

funny enough some of the so called whispering vocalist have the most soothing pleasant sounds

we're in a thread about poor vocalists and you posted johnny gill...are you crazy!? YOU don't even realize what YOU just posted or even did!?

where in the fukk is that mental illness sub-forum!?

Try reading a thread instead of emotionally responding like a women to random post you clearly lack the context on.

All I know is that this is what happens after Keith sweat sings

I’m probably gonna get negged for this but here goes—

He’s my all time favorite artist but I think prince has very mediocre vocal ability. He has his moments (last 2:30 of when doves cry, the beautiful ones, adore, I hate you, diamonds and pearls) but dude’s falsetto is often times shrill and his chest voice is pretty weak for a black singer. You’ll notice this whenever he tried to sing soulfully live. With that said though, he usually worked to his vocal strengths and has a wide range, his singing just isn’t his best talent.

Jerimih shocked me when he did his versus earlier last year

I cant see anyone else turning out "Dont be Cruel" like Bobby.

dave hollister, the mac band leads or aaron hall could have sung that just as well, if not better.

al is like d'angelo or bilal and to talk against them is sacrilege.

Before somebody says Keith Sweat

Immediately what I thought of. This thread would not be possible without mentioning him. He sounds like a guy that thought he was good because of how his vocals sound in the shower. Built a whole career off of shower crooning.

I didn't mean technically. Of course BB aint a good technical singer. But that song was all about charisma and confidence. No disrespect to the Mac Band, but they wasn't swagged out like a 21 year old Bobby Brown.

mac band only needed a outfit change and they were far better singers. hollister and hall were similar to bobby.
