Whitney Houston vs. Anita Baker

[VertigoKnight]

Whitney for technical skill but Anita for that smooth voice and actual feeling behind her words

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

i swear i don't hear many black people rocking out to Whitney's catalogue

can't clean the house listening to "i wanna dace with somebody"

My moms clean up music was







But yeah I grew up listening to Anita too.

 

[Kyle C. Barker]

Whitney is clearly the better singer and it's not even close.

That said I'd rather listen to Anita because she covers a greater range of soulful emotions



Giving it the best that I've got


Bodyyyy

[Swagnificent]

Whitney easily.

Much prettier and the better voice.

 

[tater]

Whitney had the voice of an angel, but I find myself listening to more Anita.

I immediately picked Whitney, but changed my vote after I thought about it.

 

[invalid]

My initial thoughts are Whitney Houston.

Anita had a wonderful voice, wonderful range and control. Literally nothing bad could be said.

Whitney edged her out though. I was unsure about this so I texted my grandmother for her thoughts, she agreed.
Said she wasn't the biggest fan of Anita.

From gospel to rock, she sang the fukk out of them songs

Yep, you typically hear musical artist at their best when they sing gospel songs.

Whitney’s voice is better but Anita got more enjoyable albums.

 

[Worthless Loser]

Whitney has the better voice but I prefer Anita's voice and Anita's songs flow/mellow out better.

[Ol’Otis]

[Grand Eeezus Maxwell]

Boom. Whitney ain’t got one album better than Rapture.

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

Anita Baker easily, no competition

Fight me

This. She hit this note in "Body and Soul" that always has me . Her songs hit me in a place not many songs do. Incredible voice and talent and she has range and personality. I like voices with personality: Marvin Gaye, Curtis Blow, Anita Baker, Willie Hutch, etc. All have extremely unique voices that they make sound so beautiful.

Anyways I'd like to get into Sarah Vaughn. I heard she's incredible.

 

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

Who had more range: Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey? I'm going with Mariah.

 

[Geek Nasty]

I love Anita but only a handful are touching Whitney
