i assume she must be a good dancer, having not seen her perform but having heard her concert vocal feeds. i'm a "professional" musician in that I've been paid a few times, i've earned far far less than she has and maybe someday I'll get to 5 figures but like her voice is rough. either that or she's just being paid billions for being pretty, which might be enough to push me over the edge.
A live concert feed is vastly different than recording in a studio, especially for performers that move around a lot. I would argue that her vocal performance in a live concert doesn’t reflect her vocal abilities in the studio.
Like, I totally understand why people wouldn’t like her music. It absolutely is not for everyone (just like all other music), but people who imply or flat out state she therefore doesn’t have any real talent are just crazy imho.
I’m not a fan, so I really don’t have any skin in the game, I just don’t get why people hate on her so much.
i guess my bias comes from going to a high school where about 1% of the student population was in a show choir where folk danced more than she does and sang better than those concert feeds at the same time. so over the years i've gotten to know about 100 people who fit that bill and i'm not from the largest town. statistically extrapolating, there have to be tons of us.
Sure, but can they write music that people really like?
some of us. a few are on traveling broadway productions. most of us just do community theater and busk.
