(8,515 posts)This is much more disturbing to me than anything else we are talking about.....Now your son might not like Beyonces style (tremolo,Vibrato etc.), but the girl can sing......Ella is probably the best female Jazz singer ever, most agree... However if you gave directions to Beyonce to sing an old Ella standard in a toned down fashion, she would stand up very well on a high professional level.
Talent is talent and if you dont like what artist is doing, then thats fine.But you can not judge a performers talent level based on the cultural environment she happens (because of age ) to be part of.
