Natalia had so much promise I think she could’ve got used to the stage if she gave her career a chance instead of becoming a really uptight weirdo. I mean she tried to rebrand but that ship sank but hey I still listen to Alexis Texas every so often 

shame she married that lizard 

Idk, I mean your description is spot on when you said she felt uptight when she was performing - that's the feeling I got... I have a hard time imagining her performing differently, and that uptightness worked in her favor when it came to music videos... oh well, idk the tea on her husband but... the production of her latest stuff hasn't been the best - what compels me now really is her vocals and the songs, hopefully she'll keep making them

Demi lacks creativity and variation

Taylor lacks strong vocal technique

Spoiler

Selena lacks both  (still love all of them though)

No shade, but all these new pop and hip hop girls that y’all worship really lack a lot. Especially longevity.

But how can they have longevity as artists if they're new?

I wish she looked older and not like a 16 year old in high school lol

Dua Lipa. Idk I mean she serves some solid bops, great visuals, she’s even been serving good performances, but she’s missing something and I’m not quite sure what it is. She lacks that oomph, that wow factor that separates her from the rest.

That’s exactly what I mean. In the long run, they won’t make it. They’re just a temporary musical presence.

Britney - lack of voice

Shawn Mendes - boring and lack good songs

Ariana Grande - no personality

 

[Chromatica Island 8,517]

Ed Sheeran, Sam smith, Ava max, Tove Lo, Taylor Swift, and Selena Gomez  They try too hard in my opinion.

Ariana Grande 

This She has such a potential and amazing voice but something just feels bland

[Knife 6,823]

Dua Lipa - Personality, stage presence, rhythm. Which is a shame, because her music's good

Ariana Grande - Authenticity (yuh).

[MonsterPaws 2,688]

Idk if anyone mentioned her yet:

Jessie J.

Like she has an amazing voice, she had great hits and bops early in her career...but then what?

She's incredibly talented but also incredibly forgettable. I remember the songs Price Tag, Domino, and Bang Bang but I find myself forgetting the face and voice behind those songs. With Bang Bang being an Ari song in my mind.

It's strange because her voice is actually super unique too. Like I could never forget Avril or Halsey or Sam Smith etc. because they all have unique voices and have that 'oomph' quality that cement them basically as household names.

But with Jessie J it's always "oh yeah her..." every time a song of hers comes up. Which 99% of the time is Price Tag or Bang Bang.

Charli XCX has a really unique and interesting perspective & her songs are the bomb, but she just lacks the vocal capabilites and even that wouldn't be a problem if she had that infectious diva type of confidence, which she doesn't. She doesn't really have the presence.
