Let me add this.

 

From a talent standpoint he is not in the same atmosphere as Marshall Mathers.

So does Insane Clown Posse.

 

Should I give them talent credit for that?

 

I would,but that's just me...

I would,but that's just me...

 

I knew you were a Juggalo.

You're saying you think he's a good singer?

 

I'm saying it's completely ridiculous to say he's devoid of talent. Anyone who writes their own songs and stays relevant as long as he has, has infinitely more talent than those musicians who use "songwriters" to pen their songs.

Who happens to be one of the most talented artists in music history....Sure he's not on that level, but that doesn't mean he's not talented.

Anyone can write songs. That doesn't mean they have talent. ICP has been around for a while and are relevant to their fans like Hank Jr is to his.

 

You didn't answer my question. Do you think he's a good singer?

Then let's lower the bar.

 

I'm no fan of Drake but I know he is way more talented than Hank.

So we agree that Taylor Swift is talented, correct?

 

And she is a better singer than Hank?

You're write anyone can write songs, but those that don't have a talent for it, either you songwriters or are a flash in the pan. He's a talented song-writer. His ability to sing is irrelevant. His talent is more in the writing and instrutmental part.

 

To answer your question, yes, he's a good enough singer.

Then let's lower the bar.

I disagree.

To answer your question, yes, he's a good enough singer.

 

First, my contention is that he can't sing and can't write so his singing ability is not irrelevant.

 

Secondly, he can't sing.

I disagree.

 

 

How? He writes his own stuff. Rapping is much harder than singing like Hank does. He has a huge following around the world.

So we agree that Taylor Swift is talented, correct?

 

And she is a better singer than Hank?

 

Taylor Swift is one of the most talented people in music today. Yes, I think she's a better singer than Hank Jr., and she'll end up with a more prestigious career than he's had too.

I like his style of music especial when I have "A cold one in my hand".

Have seen him 3 times always entertaining.

So we agree that Taylor Swift is talented, correct?

 

And she is a better singer than Hank?

 

No, Hank was/is a better singer than Taylor. Hank has his own style, you hear the first 3 words of a song you immediately know its him. Johnny Cash has his own style, I hear the first 3 words of any Cash song and I know it's him. Dwight Yoakam, Alan Jackson, several artists have their own distinct sound and are appealing to different ears. All the following I have mentioned appeal to my ears, some others like Taylor Swift, Luke Bryan, and Brantley Gilbert do not.
