folks saying Bey and Keys can't sing :stopitslime:

Keys biggest problem is not knowing her vocal limit [live] it goes from harmonizing to yelling [her voice begins to crack]

but

August Alsina

Chris Brown [not saying he can't sing, but his vocal range is limited as hell]

For an R&B singer, have never heard The Dream sing live, and never heard stories about a concert performance so can he sing live?

I 2nd that about Chris Brown. He can make songs but a good singer? No.



Drake can't sing. Rihanna is an ok singer, she could use a couple of voice lessons. Chris Brown used to know how to sing. Trey songs can't sing.I used to like Beyonce's singing voice, but I don't really like it now because she yells and grunts a lot. She barely sung on her last album. I miss when she used to do those complicated runs and other things with her voice. It sounds like she's struggling to hold back her full voice when she sings softly. She's still a good singer though.
I like Elle Varner and Miguel's singing voice because their voice sounds different than most other artist voices. August Alsina's voice is so smooth ( I don't like most of his songs though). I like Ariana Grande's voice too.

That ready album tho :wow:


Justin Timberlake :birdman:
Janet Jackson
TLC ( them struggle vocals by tboz :banderas:)
Mary J. Blige ( :yeshrug: it works for her)
Omarion
Chris Breezy (24 still sounding 16)

Breezy, TLC, Janet Jackson.......

Jhene Aiko
August Alsina
Cassie
Christina Milian (I really bought her first singles and music video during my :cape: stage)
Chris Brown vocals are still in puberty.

You ain't never lied.

When Chris Brown was 17, I thought his voice was going to turn into something good by the time he becomes 24.

Now he's 24 and still sound like a 17 years old. :mindblown: Most singers voice mature by that age.


He need to fire his vocal coach.

gonna take this back in time.

Angela Bofill - I know she was classically trained, and maybe it was her style, but when people redid her songs they destroyed them compared to her.

Aaron Hall - am I the only one who thought he sounded horrible live, but great on produced records? His live performances always surprised me.

Ralph Tresvant- not bad but I've been listening to some New Edition from various times lately and he just sounds ordinary next to Johnny Gill and even Bobby(I still think is underrated as a vocalist)

too many to mention right now. It's like record companies are desperate. Gotta stop trying to find trple threats and find singers. Been to enough gospel fests to know its out there.

They sound good but their voices are limited and they have to stand completely still or they'll sound terrible.
