Does Selena's lack of talent make her success all the more impressive?

Yup that's a talent on its own

I wouldn't put Selena gomez in a top50 artists with the best singles.

 

:deadbanana:

Like- a lot of her singles (and songs in general) are just songs rejected by other artists. :deadbanana4: I won't deny that she has some nice music, but "strong" would definitely not be my first choice of adjective to describe her discography.

these are just singles and only the first part of her iconic and legendary career :WAP:

we know all of this, being a great singer for example christina aguilera (debatable with all the screaming) doesn't make you a good artist or guarantee a career

but when artists don't have the best voice they usually have other talents and skills and vision that they bring into their craft

songwriting, playing instruments, dancing, style/vision that sets them apart and makes you say "wow she has this going on for her" 

selena gomez has NONE of these

 

This is a typical pop stan point of view in my humble opinion, not necessarily what the public thinks or wants. They listen to what they hear on the radio, on television or listen to someone we talk about. Selena was young when she became famous and the medias were talking about her relation with Justin Bieber for a long time even after they broke up. She "used" it in her image and music and it worked, people were curious. She also released some catchy songs back then. Her success isn't surprising at all to me. If she would have been a great musician/dancer etc it would have been a bonus in the gp's eye.

No but seeing ATRL seethe while she continues to be successful over 20 years into her career is fun to watch. :cm:

part 3 :WAP:

 

the part of her career where she repeaks after the iconic revival and droplets era where she served quality arts and charts btw

 

this is the part where she kinda slowed down because of what happened to her health and personal life but still managed to reach new career peaks and served pop perfection in english, spanish, kpop and afrobeats :WAP: 

 

THE ******* RANGE WHEWWW

For sure, she had something that seems to be the number one factor to have success nowadays: a narrative

Shes got a fetish for off-key

Posted

she has better discography than many 'talented' artists which is impressive 

Posted

Genuine question but how was she singing better during the Disney days but now she whispers? Is it because of her lupus 

Posted

I don't know much about Selena as an artist as I have never fully took a deep dive into her discography but does she write any of her own songs? I was so so so in love with Vulnerable a few years back as it autoplayed for me on Apple Music. Would people recommend I check out more of her work? :smile:

She has some writing credits here and there

 

if you loved vulnerable you would probably also love these (from the same album):

 

and revival is a very solid album with many bops, you should check it out.

 

and some of her earlier stuff:

You mean like that song Charlie xcx sings the chorus in? That's highly debatable

it's kinda insane considering she has an impressive longevity (she debuted in 2009 and is still collecting hits) , and is one of the most searched female artists on google of all-time.

People are clearly tuning in for her

She has some good songs but overall as a vocalist.....

 

That 2019 AMA performance.....

If someone only cares about a singer's vocals, there's The Voice on television which is basically made for that and only that. I don't know for y'all btw but The Voice winners very rarely become famous and successful after the show in my country. A voice is not enough.

The two (only) most successful contestants form the US version being Morgan Wallen and Melanie Martinez…
