Why does Jhene Aiko sound so awful live?

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

singers today


really cant sing

That's an R&B thing. Sad state of affairs. I was talking to an old friend, a sound engineer. Talking about this very topic. I was joking, saying that I were an artist and I needed a hook for a song to be sung, I'd get a country singer because I have a better feeling that they can hold a note. I expected the but after some thought, he give me the then the .

Most of these women just subscribe to the rap and bullshyt that is mostly out there. Does that mean that I don't listen? Of course I do, but that does not mean that they aren't belting struggle notes though. nikka be driving then gets hit with the Amityville shrieks of these women and be like . Whitney, Mariah and Aretha isn't walking through that door, I know that, but wow, definitely lack of talent.

Yeah if you wanted a great hook you are more likely to get a good result messing with some random bish in indie pop or something than these neo rnb strumpets

She had the nerve to compare herself to Sade and has an attitude



I fukk with her hooks but stay off stage bytch that live singing is turrible

See the whole Sade wannabe shyt is the thing I cant stand. Bytch coming on stage with no shoes on trying to play the whole role now..

bytch is awful

 

[MrFettuccinnePockets]

ya'll saw that travesty of a BET awards performance?

That shyt was terrible. Smh.

It's one thing to not like someone's music but u nikkas is sounding like some hating ass bytches. It's funny you some of you can't stand her but know more about her music than I do. And I don't even fukk with her music. Here's a thought... If u don't like her music why bother critiquing it.?

 

[ManBearPig]

This was your great example of her songwriting prowess? What exactly is she doing exceptionally well here as far as songwriting goes. NVM the struggle vocs once again.

I'm guessing u don't know what is the song about lol

breh, for nikkas who live love and breathe music they can speak about it passionately without having complete and utter knowledge of an act. I've listened to thousands of gigs of music in my life and as such have developed a deep understanding and love of it across all genres. As far as Jhene goes I've heard no more than 10 or so songs from this girl but from that I can quickly tell.

1.She can't sing
2. Her "songwriting" is vastly overrated
3. Her aesthetic carries her quite a bit, if she was looking like india arie, bushes
4. Her production is outstanding
5. Even with the above she still can't sing on studio tracks

with those points above she would be serviceable act cuz most female acts fall into those points anyway. The thing is that her live performances are so unbelievably bad it makes it hard for me to even listen to her shyt in studio knowing how insanely fraudulent it is.

And the whole "if you don't like something don't talk about it" talking point is infuriatingly retarded on many levels. I don't like my politicians? oh well might as well ignore and not talk about it? Are you slow?

Some pseudo deep bullshyt about her having two sides and trying to repress her darkness? Or her oh so precarious dance with fame? Am I close, I'm really just guessing right now but form the lyrics thats what it looks like so...

U sound like a bitter bytch trying to cop pleas. If I don't like something I don't bother continuing to listen to it. If I don't like a politician I don't listen or pay attention and since I think politics is corrupt in general I ignore... Wait I take that back. I only listen watch or read political related shyt for entertainment purposes.

At the end of the day though what do u intend on accomplishing by bashing the artist? Are you trying to get her music banned? Are you trying to turn fans against the bytch? What? It's not that serious. Most people speak in depth about artists they love because they listen to a lot of their work. You it seems listen only to bash. Most r&b chicks in this day and age sound like shyt and r&b as a whole is ass. Get over it, or go to change.org and start a petition to ban her from singing again ever in life.

She can barely sing on studio tracks, so what makes you think she can sing live?
