[deleted] - Adele Discussion

Beyonce was always overrated. Hit me up if Beyonce ever drops a classic like Skyfall.

Easy: Single Ladies, Crazy In Love, Irreplaceable, Baby Boy

You have bad taste. Not everybody knows they have sh!tty taste, but now you know.

Sure I'd love to hit that doggy style, those long black legs and that big fat curvy ass, sure, I'd love to mount her from behind and smack that ass a few times. But you're talking about singing talent.

Whitney, Celine, Mariah, Adele; Beyonce isn't at that level of singing talent. Beyonce falls more in line with Shanice, B Angie B, Chante Moore, Faith Evans, and Adina Howard.

Imagine thinking that "I need to restart my performance" "strained vocals" Adele is better than Beyoncé.

They're both amazing singers. No reason to pick one over the other as better imo.

Not a huge fan of either, but they sing in different styles. Adele is queen of big weepy balladry, Beyonce has a lot more energy, but her voice has something a little... artificial to it?

I've never loved voices that take a one-syllable word and wring 25 notes out of it, it screams style over substance.

How do you mean, exactly?

[–] vegan_voorhees (383) 4 years ago

I doubt her vocals are corrected given how technically good she is, but it sounds like she's being pushed to sound a certain way that's not her natural/preferred voice. Maybe it's a producer request/decision?

I wouldn't put Adele next to Whitney, Celine (who gets an unfairly bad rep), Aretha, Dusty Springfield, and even LeAnn Rimes (at her peak) either though.

I disagree. I think Adele is a far superior singer than Beyoncé.

You can tell which one sold their souls to Satan.

That would be Adele, that explains how she can sell so many physical albums in the streaming era.

They are both good singers, and I like what Adele did with the James Bond tune "Skyfall", but if we are talking singers who nailed the title track for a James Bond film, then NO ONE compares to Dame Shirley Bassey for "Goldfinger".

"Adele practically worships Beyonce like the rest of the masses do"

That's because Adele recognizes Beyonce's greatness.

It is perfectly fine to not like Beyonce's music but saying that she is a bad singer...just, no.

Never been keen on Beyonce's music, or her voice to be perfectly honest, though in general I'm not a big fan of R'n'B. There are songs of Adele's on the other hand that I like and I prefer her voice and genre of music. I think she's the more talented artist as I'm willing to bet she has more of a hand in the writing for her songs. I get the impression Beyonce has a big team around her helping her out.

Beyonce has a hand in every aspect of her music/performances. She isn't just "handed" songs.
