>thats my main dislike of it
hard to explain but the amateur quality of the vocals make it more "street" to me. gives it a very bedroom producer quality. like you make a beat and get your little sister to sing on it 'cause she just happens to be around. also power vocalists would be in a different scene and probably would not take this type of music seriously. they wanna learn whitney houston covers and get a shot at american idol(or whatever y'all got in the uk)...lol
