What's weird is that she had one of the biggest applauses from the audience whenver they announed her name. These bytches like her for some reason....

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.

Are there really people this dumb in life? so criticizing someone for being bad at their profession=bitter bytch? If you were a football player and you put up amazing combine numbers (the studio) and then got on the field and then routinely underperformed (live) you don't think people would talk about it? I don't really listen to her but from what I've heard shes okay on tracks (there are much better acts doing this sthick even then) and absolutely inexcusable live. Like completely tone deaf :wtf: As far as r&b being ass, yeah if your barometer of talent is Jhene yeah, you're right. there are a lot of very talented chicks doing r&b atm but they don't quite have the push this girl does. If anything would make me feel a certain way about her it would be that. Great talent being put on the burner because they are not as attractive as her or something like that. I mean that shyt is rampant in music but its w/e, it'll never go away.

And you killing me if you think I only listen to music to bash...go to the lounge and see how much shyt I put people on. I'm a lover of music homie, and as such I will speak on it rather I'm feeling or not. free country, no?

Critiquing is one thing but all you're doing is stating the obvious. And I already broke down her limitations as well as other artists who sing live at different venues. Performing live isn't easy and a lot of artists can't do it. Even great performers have off days. Yes she can't sing well live. Yes her vocal capabilities are limited. You just sound obsessed/bitter at this point and just like you have the right to criticize I have the right to make an observation. :manny:

Ugly bytches don't sell many records. Unless u can sing like Adele or that lorde bytch forget about it.

I was obsessed with Mya when she first came out knowing damn well she couldn't sing. I even bought her first album. That's life.

Well this is something we agree. It takes phenomenal talent for a unattractive woman to get on in any way. btw if you like this style of music (I don't recall if you were actually a fan or just trying to shyt on me lmfao) check these out.

:damn:

but rt, rihanna can't sing but has a pretty distinctive voice/style of singing. She makes it work. Kinda of how M.I.A. can't sing at all but her voice has that natural charisma.

Basically if a female singer isn't pretty or unique in some way (Adele/Lorde) they not getting on at all. I said it in another thread but Aretha Franklin would've been bushes status if she came out today despite her vocals.

Record execs could care less if someone can sing live but it can make or break someone, if you guys remember Cassie hasn't really dropped anything since she got exposed on 106.

I mean but can you blame them? in this over sexualized world do you really want a ugly bish crooning to you? Thats why even tho Aiko is a pure fraud I can understand her lane, like my only problem with her is that she is the worst of the worst live. if she was just bad it would be coo, but shes horrible so its hard to take her seriously at all. These other neo rnb chicks can at least put on a front live.

the lyrical content is different now. It all some waifish, subdued, come cry for me or fukk me shyt. You CANNOT have an unattractive chick trying to sell that, it wouldn't be believable in the slightest. Only woman I can think of that blew that was utterly hideous is Sia and thats because not only is she an amazing talent she pens numbers ones like its a habit. With that said, it takes that type of pedigree for her to get shine, imagine your average woman.

I doubt Aretah would've been bushes though, some talent is just transcendent and will flourish when given the opp. Thats the problem now though, on a mainstream level people that are getting pushes over much more talented people. Thats nothing new though I suppose. Image is sitll important but less so with the advent of the internet...

Is it illegal for us to talk about this?

And yes, I AM trying to get this talentless bytch shut down. She's performing on an award show with an artist of caliber like John Legend and fukking it up during prime time. :stopitslime:

Not even that shed's bad.

She's CONSISTENTLY bad.

I've NEVER seen a good performance from her. SNL. Summer Jam. BET Awards. Late night TV>

Chick is trash.
