‘Why The New Girls Can’t Sing’

[010101]

So discipline and effort = difficult?

Imagine if actual real world working professions, and even formal education, started to take that shortcut philosophy....society will fall apart.

Putting discipline and QUALITY makes things BETTER, not DIFFICULT. That's that crackhead mentality.

you travel everywhere on horseback¿*

Gen Z is all about Drill Music and zero dedication on love.

And that seriously makes it the worst it’s ever been. Every previous era had some element of love/affection but this current one totally lacks that, which is ironic, cause a lot of these artists (the male ones, rappers specifically) cry on records using autotune pouring their hearts out, but they’re not actually saying anything. They’re basically pouring their hearts out over their guns And they don’t even sound good doing it.

But we're not talking real world working professions ... we're talking about arts and entertainment


if any certain thing in art no longer moves the masses of people, it becomes more obscure ... like jazz

autotune was basically a tool to undermine the natural development of black singers and to destroy any form of potential to outshine their CAC counterparts by crippling their true vocal skill.

I parlay your answer with this, cars are environmentally destructive, dangerous as ever loving shyt, and have killed more humans than maybe every species of horse combined that has likely ever lived with interactions with people. So to be quite frank, a horse is actually much safer than a car (getting everywhere by train and trolley still the goat option though)

All the new girls are trying to sound like jhene with that soft "I look innocent but I'm really not" voice. (I can't think of a word to describe it.)

H.e.r. can sing when she has to though.

Ultimately I blame the consumer. If you accept trash, that's what the labels are gonna give you.

Kehlanis the worst offender of the Jhene Aiko wannabes

 

[R=G]

Who is the new black Christina Aguilera??

 

[Mindfield333]

Well she’s fine and she sing her ass off.

 

[Chrishaune]

Gospel singers smartened up and won't participate in the demonic music industry. Plenty of Sanger's out here. That's where a lot of talent came from

 

[AAKing23]

I will always blame the fans first for most things in music. They don’t hold these chicks to any standard until they absolutely shyt the bed. What’s so weird to me is why women want to see these chicks take off their clothes and be overly sexual so much for popularity, almost like they wanna fukk these chicks more than the guys do. I guess creativity and drive is just something the minority of people will have in any industry

That's exactly what it is. Look on the comments under any Meg, Bey, or RiRi pic and you're gonna see mad more women leaving sexual comments about them than men

styles change

the belting every note run heavy church style isn't coming back

studio magic works miracles now ha

And they still sound bad

 

[MurderToCassette]

The best signers/musicians are most often in churches and will not ever perform secular music

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Can't forget Madonna, Paula Abdul, Keith Sweat, and Al B. Sure!


Once the Milli Vanilli experiments advanced with auto-tune and other studio tricks becoming available, even good ghost voices no longer became necessary ... any and every weak voice could be fixed and sound like magic.


Plenty of great voices still exist, if you want to hear current ones, you'll have to start looking more into underground R&B or gospel

Al B Sure is the absolute worse of the ones you listed. The others knew their range and made it work.

It has nothing to do with church. The world is filled with black people who can sing. Hell, I know like 5-10 women that can sang, sang. They own boutiques and stuff like that as opposed to being world famous. Making it as a singer is incredibly hard by itself. It’s even harder for black people because we are disproportionately good at singing. The competition is real. Making it as a singer-songwriter is even more challenging. Truth is, people want their singers to look a certain way now… unless they are white.

 

[3rdWorld]

A lot of the old girls couldn't sing either

Name names..
