It's so obvious this is someone they hired to do this. Like she can obviously sing.
I find it hard to believe someone who put in the time to hit notes as cleanly as she can is just randomly gonna drop into these weird lil flourishes for no reason...

idk. it's highly likely that it is staged, but I've seen many a genuinely talented person think they're cooking while theyre doing the most weird, awkward, unnecessary shit.
tldr; talent doesn't equal good decision making skills sometimes lol

When I used to play classical guitar a lot, I would hear my own playing so much, that I would keep over-interpretating, to the point where it wouldn't make sense in other people's ears.
I would love it myself, but it wouldn't sound good for others4
u/Crimson3312 13h ago
I remember once I was preparing for an audition and my instructor gave me all sorts of advice on how I should "interpret" the piece and add my own embellishments, to "stand out".
I didn't get the gig and on my feed back they all cited the "unnecessary embellishments" as to why.
Some people just don't know what the hell they're doing

Have you heard Greta Thunberg's sister sing?

u/lasagnadogwater69 7h ago
She was hitting every note, just with the weird crunchy affectation. The performance in the video seems like she's trying super hard not to hit the notes.

It's amazing to me that people still think, after all these years, that "reality TV" is not scripted.

u/pythonidaae 12h ago
Yeah this is weird because she seems like she on a technical level is good, but the accents were terrible. So it is very unpleasant to listen to.
1
u/Waste_Space1415 12h ago
I don't know whether or not it's staged, but I've encountered similar uhhh.... "talents" before in person.
Some people believe they can turn their awful singing into a unique "style" that they can market. They hear eccentric acts like Yoko or Tiny Tim and think they can do the same without understanding that these acts are actually extremely niche.

u/Background_Essay_676 11h ago
Some of those notes were very difficult. I actually like it non ironically

u/Unlikely-Outside-784 11h ago
She's singing a song in a language she doesn't understand.
2
u/lasagnadogwater69 7h ago
I challenge you to put this to the test. My pronouncian of pata pata isn't perfect, but it damn sure doesn't affect the actual notes I'm supposed to be hitting. Like you could completely screw up every single word in a song, and still perfectly hit every note.
That's not what's happening here though. She is intentionally going out of key in the most ridiculous way she possibly can.

She actually has a beautiful voice. Shes just intentionally trying to sound bad for content. They purposely do this because is entertaining...as we can see because shes posted in this sub while the other hundreds of singers are not

u/pallentx 15h ago
I think sheās not a native English speaker and is copying vocal styles without knowing the words and just badly exaggerating. She does have a good voice in there somewhere.

Lol I thought the same but you can search words or phrases. So reply to this comment with the gif button below but search "yeah right" in the gif search bar. Then just pick one
1
u/DripTrip747-V2 15h ago
Yea, but we all know Kanye is special needs and what it says just fits way too perfectly to be a random search. Like the OP just knew about it already and found the perfect comment to use it on.
I know how to comment gifts, but I've never had one just be so damn perfect it makes me wanna cry tears of joy. Maybe it's just me though...
I just like to think some people have mastered the art of gif's and have fulfilled their lives destiny.

What evidence do you have that she's not taking herself seriously...she may just be trying to be unique? Some ppl really don't actually hear how fucked up they sound when they're singing.

u/OrdinaryAccount479 15h ago
Sad that she has no friends. Because if she did have friends, they'd tell her how awful this is.

u/ArcadianDelSol Cringe Level 1 14h ago
So...
1) she doesnt speak English, so the lyrics are just her best phonetic impressions of them.
2) she's got very good pitch and a good sound, but someone told her all those forced voice alterations sounded good. Probably trying hard to be the new Alanis Morrisette instead of just showcasing the talent she has.

u/NicheGuysFinish2nd 15h ago
Spot on...
And honestly she doesn't have a terrible voice. There's something there... But she has to pick one voice and just stick with that. It's more of a control issue than a pitch issue for me.
2
u/Ok_Necessary2991 15h ago
Sounds like she is trying to impersonate a singing style that's not authentic to her without realizing why it sounds terrible coming from her.

When I turned this up to hear it, my dog was laying on the floor sleeping. She heard the song, looked up at me with sad eyes, got up, and walked slowly out of the room like she'd just gotten yelled at for digging through the garbage.

She has an exceptional talent, if she can resolve and separate all of her different voices. Unless this is a bit, because itās really close to being comedy.

Edit: someone wanted me to put that I was corrected. Im open to learning some other things about what goes on in the tv production side of these shows.

u/Cromagnumman6174 15h ago
Ok. Its still an opinion and yours means nothing to me. Good talk tho š
1
u/RobataChane72 15h ago
It's actually not an opinion you stated a fact that is objectively false. Read the other comments for clues. Context: I've worked in TV production for over thirty years and I know more about this than you.
0
u/Cromagnumman6174 15h ago
Again, cool story and good talk š congrats? I dont work in tv production. I work with firearms and I doubt you know as much as me in that subject. So you would be naive to me regarding them.

u/RobataChane72 15h ago
We're not talking about firearms though. We're taking about a TV show. Weird flex.

u/Cromagnumman6174 15h ago
Sorry you couldnt put two and two together in the comparison I was making. Idk know why you would think I would know more than you in a field I dont work in or have any associations with. I dont know why you had to single out my comment instead of scroll by. Did it really bother you that much? Would it help to ease your annoyance if I put an IMO in front of my original comment?
1
u/Reoplaw 14h ago
well you've been corrected so you shouldn't hold that opinion anymore, but if we need to make it even more clear, what the guy was trying to say is that these shows are usually predetermined and the people there are usually given instructions on what to do or preform aka. it's staged.
so either delete your main comment beacuse quite frankly it was uneducated take or just put little edit saying you've been corrected otherwise more people will try to correct you.
1
u/Cromagnumman6174 14h ago
Meh, im okay with that. I'm gonne leave it up even tho my original comment may not be correct. Dude was being a dick for no real meaningful reason. He wasnt originally trying to educate me. Just put me down. He could've scrolled past. But maybe I'll learn some more things by leaving the comment up so Im not so naive in the future. If it actually gets to me I can turn the notifications off. I dont really concern myself with the reddit up votes and down votes anyways bc they dont mean anything outside of reddit.
