Have you heard the way some (true) vocalists harmonise with their backing singers or the way girl groups like Labelle, En Vogue and DC did? Their harmonies were pretty difficult and practically always perfect, no matter who was leading or who was singing the top, middle or bottom - the harmonies Nicki did were rather basic in comparison.Young Tannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-3020467107898655082014-02-04T03:11:15.035+00:002014-02-04T03:11:15.035+00:00What majorities?

Latifah and Missy got where they were today in the industry through a lot of hard work and without the need of gimmicks or anything else. Nicki's had some success but I wouldn't say one of the most successful - can't imagine she'd be as "successful" as she is today without all the craziness. And while she may big rather big "TODAY" let's see if in 10-15 or 20 years time she's still going strong, has equalled their influence and success.Young Tannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-41587563898547408872014-02-04T01:47:34.974+00:002014-02-04T01:47:34.974+00:00I dont care if you've seen a video.

By all means, you have a justified right to your opinion but that doesn't that it cannot be logically counteracted.<br /><br />Please tell me what exactly was the "older stuff" of Nicki's that you listened to before she went commercial? I would like to know if you have the time because Nicki has been making mixtapes since 05'.<br /><br /><br />I do not classify Nicki as a "singer", per say, and never will and you are RIGHT about that because she isn't one and, in all honesty, I rarely pay attention to her singing as I don't expect anything near- great but as a "rapper", she has 'talent' in spades. As I said before, from a technical standpoint, her lyrical capacity, charismatic delivery, word-play/flow, rhythmic timing & character as well as free-styling ability are fantastic and all marks of a "Good Rapper/MC"; I wouldn't yet call her incomparable but she is capable.Devonte'noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-85603804660194593002014-02-03T15:07:46.619+00:002014-02-03T15:07:46.619+00:00I wouldn't say Lorde's vocal ability is an...I wouldn't say Lorde's vocal ability is anything impressive either.Young Tannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-82384758437714780722014-02-03T15:06:44.257+00:002014-02-03T15:06:44.257+00:00I have been a fan of hip-hop that was big in the 8...I have been a fan of hip-hop that was big in the 80s and 90s and there are better ladies out there who are severely underrated as rappers, singers and overall musicians - and are humble about their talents - while she swans around thinking she's the best with all her gimmicks whereas I certainly wouldn't put her in my top 5 or even top 10.

An "average Singer" perhaps but she is one of the most unique female rappers out today; her lyrical flow as well as rhythmic timing & character is astounding. By all means, her 'Pop' songs do not do her justice per say, but as an AVID fan of Hip-Hop and someone who has been following her since her Underground- days - circa. 2005-2009 - her skills are great.
