This, like I don't get why people are sooooo shocked when artists decide to sell their music rights for 9 figures, like that is a best case scenario. If I were Enrique, Katy, Justin etc I'd cash out too, it's not like they can't still tour etc.

I had hope for Katy coming back seems she’s happy taking the Idol money and still being a celeb, Justin could be more ambitious and still get hits but he seems over it. 
 

But yeah Enrique, I didn’t think he would get 9 figures but great for him. Perfect example of who should sell.

Let’s say a company wants to make a brand deal with Enrique to sponsor something like tequila, or maxdonalds or even Donald trump

Can they do some deepfakes with Enrique’s face?

Doing this doesn’t prevent anyone from having a “comeback”. It’s a business decision.

Also, Enrique has been dragged since the start of his career for his 'not-so-great' vocals. The TikTok videos just put that stuff into light for the younger generation :dies:

Yes and it's always been way overblown. He was never a power house vocalist even on his recordings but he was always capable of putting on a competent vocal performance. Almost every major US network TV performance he did until around 2013 was live and they were all fine. The idea that he scammed people into not trusting their own ears for the better part of 30 years is ridiculous.

 

Anyone who has followed him has noticed the deterioration in his voice (even his speaking voice) since 2017 onward. It unfortunately happens to singers that their voice box can get damaged particularly if they are frequent tourers like Enrique. Plus I don't think it's a coincidence that he's had two major respiratory illnesses in the last few years either. Still I would argue he's still sounds fine on 90% of his setlist. There is a reason these tiktok videos all focus on the same few songs over and over; those are the ones he really struggles with as opposed to the ones he can still pull off convincingly.

He did play a part in writing many of those bops. Plenty of his collaborators have stood up for him as a songwriter. Even the ones he didn't write I'd still give him credit for being savvy and knowing a hit when he heard it. He has a fairly good track record on pushing for songs and directions that ended up being huge and opposing stuff that his label pushed on him and ended up flopping. You'd think a board which stans pop girls would know there is more to having a successful career than just singing well...which Enrique did fine throughout most of his career.

Bailamos

Be With You

Hero

Escape

I Like It

Tonight (I'm Lovin' You)

Bailando

Duele El Corazon

Subeme La Radio

 

Those are all huge global hits. Not to mention even some of his less well performing songs like Rhythm Divine, Not In Love and Do You Know are fondly remembered. Plus he has a very prolific career before he crossed over into English. Most of his classics in the Latin market are from that period and would be perfect to use in that region.

Yeah, he's no different to most pop singers nowadays, but he's been kind of an 'easy' target for some weird reason

Who is paying $100 million+ for Enrique Iglesias catalog? They are never getting that money back.

I'd say pop music doesn't need the singer to have a big voice. I would argue Enrique's voice suited the material he releases. It's fact that he's the son of an established star means he was going to a lot of scrutiny. Even though we know now he and Julio were never close and been at odds over the years so didn't get any help from his father people will naturally wonder whether he's got talent to back up his success. Still even among the stars that did benefit more from famous parents Enrique attracts it even more.

He's one of the biggest and most prolific artists with a huge number of hits in the Latin market; one of the biggest music markets in the world. He's literally the most streamed act from Spain of all time and still gets pretty strong numbers even during the lengthy periods he doesn't release anything. He also has a more than respectable number of huge English language hits. Why wouldn't that money for whoever owned it all?
