... Now, he said John Legend and Anthony sound gruff enough to be in a choir... No doubt. But then Beyonce can't cuz her voice is too polished... Prob cuz she's been more trained/ whateva... But I think there's a misconception about R&B bein mostly femme oriented... But the females in the R&B stuff right now are soundin like to much hip-hop or pop. But with Legend, Hamilton, other guys in it right now... it feels more connected to the past of em.

However- I agree wit AFKAP... cuz a true church singer lookin back at the church for her soul in the music... its less controlled and more powerful... alot of what the singers used 2 do back in the day. And i think thats what singin should be, alot more emotion then it has now.
But Beyonce is polished. She doesnt have that emotion that alotta people used to have. SHe doesnt have her voice growlin... shes a pretty good singer, but she hasnt grew up church singin... You can see it in the way she sings.
