[Archangel]

I see you OP

What I do?

 

[UpAndComing]

I love Janet, but sorry got to put her as a 6 for singing talent


If we talking about music career in general, then it's a 9



So imma roll with a 7 final score

 

[Hannibal Fox]

What I do?

Thought you went with Janet because of the back and forth between various posters in the Whitney Soul Train thread

 

[Bledswole]

Dudes gonna factor in her looks

She shouldn’t get anything higher than a 7 vocally

 

[Archangel]

Thought you went with Janet because of the back and forth between various posters in the Whitney Soul Train thread

I do pay close attention

 

[Archangel]

We agree. I got her at a 5 vocally. Back in her prime, she was a much better Beyonce all things considered.

 

[13473]

her music is high quality. i love discipline & velvet rope
edit:...pretty much all her music after 1995.


but her actual vocals are just average imo. like, if someone who couldn't sing took lessons and learned to sing...i could see them being about average.

 

[Archangel]

Dudes gonna factor in her looks

I know. I debated even putting her pictures up cause I know how visuals can persuade minds on here.

To be honest, I had to search high and low for some decent ,non sexual pictures of her. When I googled her, all I could find was provocative pics

Forgot how BAD she was back in the day.

 

[Chelsea Bridge]

Her voice is like a 5.

 

[Coco Loco]

5 based on vocals, 10 based on performance.
