Kendrick. He sounds like a fucking mouse. Also good storytelling=\=good songwriting.

Liam used to be alright, but he really fucked his vocal chords up bad.

This was him singing "Live Forever" during the demo sessions of their first album in 1993:

Thom Yorke looks just like his music sounds, and he looks like he's been lobotomized and force-fed sleeping pills.

He really looks like deep down, he doesn't want to make music at all, but that his doctors told him it was either that, or chemical castration.

He looks like if he bumped into a chair after stumbling his way through a room, he'd apologize to the chair.

He looks like he's what's called a "philosophical zombie", that is to say a human being with working bodily functions, but absolutely no hint of sentience, awareness or sensitivity of any kind.

He looks utterly defeated, he looks like the kind of man a hundred generations of bureaucratic dictatorship would produce after mercilessly and clinically suppressing all hints of free will and personal ambitions in its population. If he didn't sing, I'd be convinced that the only thing he's able to say is "yes".

He looks numb. He looks so numb it's a miracle he's even alive because someone this numb wouldn't have the degree of proprioception required to keep all his cells together. He'd literally melt into protoplasmic goop, like a big jellyfish washed ashore, like a load of sterilized semen being flushed down, like a gob of spit waiting to dry on a chewing gum-encrusted pavement.


That's what Thom Yorke looks like, and that's what Radiohead sounds like.

>>74960777
Grimes' music is good but her voice is way too high pitched. I don't know how people tolerate her on the songs where she doesn't turn it down.

The melt banana vocalist, or any really high pitched japanese vocalist

>>74962284
Sort of, check out Angels of Light for some of his folkiest stuff.

>listening to music for the lyrics
If a song doesn't sound pleasing to the ears, but the lyrics are good/interesting/whatever then wouldn't it make more sense to just listen to slam poetry or a book on tape? Shitty, boring sounding songs that hide behind good lyricism is the bane of music. Focus on creating a good, unique sound. Lyrics are the sprinkles on the sundae. You wouldn't want a sundae that is all sprinkles and just a dab of ice cream would you? Kendrick is a good storyteller, doesn't mean his music is pleasing to the ear or worth listening to. His whole discography basically boils down to that. I'll read his lyrics but I won't sit through his songs.

I don't listen to much rap but how anyone stands Jay Z's voice is beyond me.

thank you for this ive been looking for this copypasta forever

>>74962614
>makes music without vocals and needs to justify it by saying lyrics aren't important and using half-brained aphorisms and metaphors to justify his point

>>74961866
Kendrick has a lot of different voices that you can hear in different songs and it's pretty cool. It also really helps the storytelling.

>>74960777
any female pop singer who perform what I call "controlled yelling"
like Aguilera national anthem style singing, I hate it with a passion

>>74960777

an essential addition to this thread

>>74962503
Isn't that part of the appeal?

>>74965747
What's so hard to understand about putting the quality of sound above the message? Are all music pieces meant to have a tangible meaning? I listen to music primarily for sounds that I think sound good, not for stories or commentary. If I wanted those I would read a book, an article, or a shitpost. I mean it's an added bonus if I like the way a song sounds and I like the lyrics, but I would prefer the lyrics to be absolute nonsense and sound good than be the most profound lyrics rapped by a man with an unappealing drawl. If Kendrick sounded like eazy e, snoop dogg, or wondermike and actually had half decent beats I would enjoy his music much more. I don't like the way he sounds so I don't like his music.

>>74962463
are you me??????

>>74965747
Stop listening to music. You clearly don't understand it.
