I said "above average". Do you know how terrible the average person is at singing? Above average isn't even the same as good.

:what: Singers should know how to sing breh. For people who sing, he's not above average. Why would you compare him to non-singers? :dwillhuh: That's like me asking you how good of a basketball player you are and you responding, compared to my mom I'm nice as fukk! :ohlawd::ooh::jawalrus:

i like ryan leslie, he has some joints on his albums that are pretty dope

but overall, his rapping is average as it gets, and his singing needs some work. he should just produce for other people

Um, he's not a singer breh. I'm comparing him to nonsingers cuz he's a nonsinger. I'm pretty sure all along he's been promoted as a rapper who sings. Which is what he does. So the statement stands.

I respect dude as a producer, super talented, but i just can't take his raps seriously and that's no hate. Homie needs to play video games with Just Blaze on his s down time. Focus solely on artist management and production. Rapping ain't for him.

He feels himself a little bit too much. Clearly has talent but apart from producing for Cassie, hasn't really done much

The nikka's still a musician, breh. He makes music for public consumption. So it's probably not fair to compare him to a John Legend, but we shouldn't compare him to some nikka getting his Lutha on in the shower, either. Someone like Queen Latifah. :heh: Seriously, Cee-lo is above average. Drake is just average.
