Why does this generation only have 1 MPV (Main Pop Vocalist)?


Recommended Posts

Its getting less and less popular for artists in popular music to sing songs that are too vocally demanding because people can't sing along to them easily. Even Ariana has to tone it down a bit in her songs.

Reneé Rapp has potential. She needs better material.

Because she's the only one here thanks to sheer talent. She has music ingrained in her DNA. Except for Doja, DuaTate and Billie, all of the other girls are disposable label trends who have no business being in a recording booth, much less on a stage.

fixed it for you:fan:

The GP is here for mediocrity. Once they see someone like Demi trying to be a vocalist they'll drag her by saying she's being 'extra' or 'annoying'. You can see how even Ariana slowed it down with her own vocals after her first albums and now it's mostly whisper pop :lakitu:

Lady Gaga? She has never been regarded as such and you should embrace sis for what she is and not for what you think she should be embraced for. The GP does not think of Lady Gaga when they think of vocalists and there is NOTHING wrong with that.

We have Miley, and anyone who claims she's not a vocalist is insane.

I'm still waiting on a true vocal era from Ariana. I know she has great vocals always, but she's never really used them as a weapon.

60s: Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Nina Simone, Etta James

70s: Barbra Streisand, Tina Turner, Stevie Nicks

80s: Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Annie Lennox

90s: Mariah Carey, Toni Braxton, Brandy

00s: Beyoncé, Kelly Clarkson, Christina, Lady Gaga, Leona Lewis (Maybe +Adele)

10s: Ariana Grande

20s: Ariana Grande?

 

Why the top-tier pop vocalists keep decrease in quantity over time?

 

Why do we only have Ariana Grande as the only popular vocalist now? Is it because people want to stan Taylor Swift nowadays so they neglect the vocalists?

There should be some very obvious changes to this list. First of all Adele should be in the 10s alongside Ariana. No one was more defined as a "vocalist" by the GP for the 2010s like Adele, not even Ariana.

 

Also why is Ariana there twice for two decades but no one else was afforded that same luxury? Aretha was a MPV well into the 1980s, same with Barbra. Whitney and Céline were more successful as MPVs in the 1990s than the 1980s yet are listed there.

 

Is this just thinly a veiled Ariana appreciation thread?

we have RAYE

Because Ariana, Gaga, Beyonce, and Adele already still fulfill that niche. All of those are still A+ list singers that are relevant. They haven't left the scene, so there hasn't been a need to "replace" them. 
 

Also, while I know they aren't the same type of vocalist, Miley and Olivia also kinda fill the niche of "great vocalists" for the GP. And that's plenty to keep them satisfied for now

The history revisionists are so desperate to erase Christina Aguilera's impact when truth is during her peak she had no vocal peer and her impact was so huge that she is the only with Beyonce regarded by vocal legends and newcomers alike.
