What exactly is wrong with "Dope" vocals?

Yes, the song about her drug habit and alcohol abuse has her slurring some lines (on purpose)... But as a whole, there is NOTHING wrong with it. 

Seriously, listen to it. Put it on now. Exactly what parts don't you like? 

The first verse might not be everyone's cup of tea, understandable, her voice is usually a little bit higher-- but once you get to the first chorus, it's an amazing song all the way through. She......doesn't even sound that different than she normally does? Am I missing something?

Why is Dope so hated?

i dont understand the hate for her singing like that at all. I love Dope. Its so emotional and the vocals really add to that effect. 

"My name is Dita, I'll be your Mistress tonight..."

It's not that it's a bad song...it's an emotional good song but I found IWBWY to be more relatable...specially the line "I'd rather be poor and happy than rich and alone" I think I got too used to IWBWY that I just don't find a conection with dope. My humble opinion:emma:

What if tomorrow I see you again? Should I say that I used to love you?

I've always loved the Dope/TIHTY vocals, they're so distinctive and they convey so much emotion. I would take them any day over her high/poppy TF vocals.

Nothing. A good mixing by Rick Rubin, #8 on BB 100 and does anyone remember the YouTube Music Awards performance? Heartbreaking ❤️ And I almost forgot that single cover which is amazing :nails:. Is my favorite balllad, thank to its vocals mainly

Her delivery of "Been hurting low, from living high for so long" is just perfect. I dunno, I've never understood the hate. A few words here and there aren't perfect, but the minute "deep" or "emotional" gets mentioned people flip out "OMG NO DOPE!".....like......what? The song is actually.......not bad at all?

Some fans, including me thinks that her natural more feminine, brighter, higher timbre is better. For me it sound beautiful, unique and Gaga should lower it to make Dope vocal effect on LG5
