Alicia Keys
Alicia has some songs I like. She's cool. I think she works really, really hard at being a good singer. She strains, though. She hasn't relaxed enough to allow her vocal cords to do what they can really do. She can sing. However, I put her up there with Beyonce in that the genuine artistic vision is like sorely lacking. I have seen her perform and is mediocre at best. Unfortunately, inconsisentcy follows this one around like a bad habit. She performed "Empire State" with Jay-Z at an award ceremony and could not even hit her own notes. It was bizarre. And that is what we call studio auto-tuning. Why would you allow something that is not even true to be released? I mean practice until you get it. And if you can't sing it, adjust yourself to the song or vice-versa. Lame! She's clearly contralto trying to be soprano? Sorry, I am not fooled.
