Kingdom Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 For someone who sells really well and writes songs cheesy or not, its a bit baffling that her vocals live are really not good but she gets away with it. Black artist (esp black women ) in general always have to strive to be excellent and be better than most to get half of what their white counterparts gets. Do you think VOCALISTS like Alicia keys, Beyonce etc can etc can get away with Taylor's vocal....competence?
50thStateofMind Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 PinkPantheress' vocals are 10x worse...(I do like her music though)
Shelter Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 No. Just look at the Taylor lip syncing thread, all sticking up for her. You can't even hear her voice over the backtrack anymore. Alicia gets dragged for her vocals all the time.

Icarus Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 As the OP already knows, the primary reason Taylor is so popular is her songwriting. Not every artist has to be able to sing like Whitney or Celine To answer the question though, look at Rihanna [3]

Taylor does not have a single remarkable vocal performance in a span of 17 years, nor does she have any vocal talent. Rihanna at least has a unique tone which can slay any genre + several great vocal moments
PoisonPill Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 Rihanna is the 2nd most successful female singles artist of all time.......
Bonicap Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 Tell them to write their own songs for their own vocal range, tone and style and then sing them and we'll see.
Pheromosa Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 Idk why people are saying Rih Taylor can’t sing a song as technically demanding as LOTB 2

The tragic vocals in question were those of Taylor on TIWYCF which made Calvin fly out and fetch Rihanna instead. It doesn’t get more embarrassing than that Edited April 20, 2023 by airplane

Big Bad Wolf Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 No. Just look at Rihanna and how people bash her for being “talentless”, but others have literally PRAISED someone like Selena Gomez for having a “good career despite no talent” or whatever + they eat up her whisper vocals like no tomorrow too. But Rihanna gets dragged for everything under the sun even though her discography is full of literal classics.

You can't even hear her voice over the backtrack anymore. Alicia gets dragged for her vocals all the time. Not sure what anyone expected really. There was no way she was going to pull off that number of your dates with that many songs on her set list without fully lip syncing. Even then, I can still envision her losing her voice for an extended period of time (genuinely or fictitiously) and then crafting a whole PR’d album cycle around it though.
