Compare her to all the current young pop girls and maybe only Ariana is better than her.. Billie, Taylor, Doja, Selena, Ava Max... Dua is vocally better than all of them so I don't understand your constant need to bring her talent down in every thread you see of her. Also I don't understand the need to "lmao" my perfectly polite reply that said nothing funny. EDIT: @JustTea I guess that happens when you have no arguments and when you’re a rude prick.

MOT 2,921 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 The dictionary tells me that the word vocalist means 'singer'. Is Dua a great singer ? It's subjective, but my answer is no. She does make some beautiful sounds, but too many mispronounced vowels will usually have me reaching for the off switch and she's guilty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrenaliner 3,771 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Her voice is amazing. Her control is amazing, she can belt and she has this funky tune that is just so unique. Listening to her I can just close my eyes and her voice takes me away. I personally prefer more this kind of thick, low and funky voice to a high belting, pitch perfect voice. Probably my favorite female vocalist atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you quoted me for what; LMAOing your "everyone who dislikes Dua is misogyny" reply or that I actually complimented her for being way better vocalist than Katy? Idk and idc if she's better than those you mentioned, haven't spend time to watch their live vocals. Only your video proved her to be better than Katy so far. And I haven't commented on any thread about her since Grammys. I don't have time to argue with you in every thread about her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 she has a strident voice so i avoid listening to her, and no im not just hating on her but her voice is like the sound of forks grating a plate it really gives me chills in a bad way i cant hear it too long Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oriane 20,512 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I think being a good singer is different from being a good vocalist. A good vocalist has a good technique, is able to do different things with their voice, does it in a healthy way, to me it's really about the technicality of it. Being able to hold a tune and control your voice is nice but yes, the more you can do, the better a vocalist you can be considered. Being a good singer is more about the artistry, do they have something special, do they put emotions in the songs, do they have their own identity... You need some vocalist skills to be a good singer but not being able to do a lot of things isn't necessarily bad as long as you stick to what you can do. Not talking about Dua specifically but I saw several messages here that seem to say that these are the same. 1 hour ago, Regina George said: EDIT: @JustTea I guess that happens when you have no arguments and when you’re a rude prick. Are you referring to the fact that they LMAOd you without quoting you with arguments, because you did the same to me a few weeks ago The only GGD member who can read / Credits to Celloo Deng for the profile pic!

Aphasic 4,033 Posted April 23, 2021 Author Share Posted April 23, 2021 Let's not confuse good/average with greatness. The question wasn't if you liked her voice or this or that. The question is: is Dua a great singer? I am positive that the experts would also agree with what the majority has expressed on the poll: she's not a great singer. She's a MPG who has improved but her vocal abilities won't get better. Sorry but that's how biology works the more she sings the more damage her vocal cords will suffer which will translate in not having better vocals.

Wet Fire 7,001 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Very good vocalist. Knows what she can do, good control. But I'd say truly great vocalists would include Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande etc. As of now, I haven not seen Dua's vocals taking the centre stage.

She doesn't struggle cause vocally she just doesn't have the chops and her songs are not vocally challenging. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
