obviously the goat Wax song




also you ppl don't know what auto tune is. Every singer that's ever recorded a track uses auto tune. T-Pain just took it to an extreme to fuck his voice up. Stronger Than I Was and Haile's Song both had auto tune on it as well as every singing chorus Eminem has ever had.

it's alright to criticise your favorite rappers as well, i am a huge eminem fan and it's quite easy to hear the auto tune in Stronger Than I Was, yes obviously not as tuned as Kanye West's songs, it's more of a moderate auto-tuned in my opinion.

Anyways, back on topic I'd say Yelawolf, Drake, and I don't know that many Hopsin songs but from what I've heard he is a good singer too.


But it's because he's WRONG not because of Eminem hate lol. We're trying to tell him Em didn't use Autotune.

Lauryn Hill will always be in her own league of this. But I like Eminem, Hopsin, B.o.B, Yelawolf, Andre 3000, Andy Mineo and Childish Gambino singing.

Can't forget about Krizz Kaliko, dude can sing.

I don't think Drake is horrible at singing. Its clear that he can at least carry a pitch in tune.

Drake isn't horrible at all, it's just his subject matter and his music.

Krizz Kaliko's the most powerful singer around. Dude sounds like a choir acapella, the people who are getting mentioned in this thread have nothing on Krizz's singing ability.

A tad disrespectful to some of the names mentionedImageHe does have a powerful voice, but in my opinion he isn't in a league of his own. Again, it comes down to stylistic preferences etc.
y'know, it felt a little too subjective saying it, but in retrospect I still stand by what I said. it takes a lot to impress me in non-hiphop genres, but Krizz's singing is one of my exceptions. Admittedly there's a handful of artists mentioned here that I haven't given a fair chance, but regardless Krizz will remain one of the greats to me, at least in regards to pure versatility on a mic.
