'Man I love u let's not do this again. I give u permission to rip Ray apart anytime u want tho

[RAY7]

and yes melisma and runs are the same

How Sway

Because melisma is the broad term used for anytime
a person is singing, and stretches out one syllable over multiple notes
which is exactly what a person does when they run
but also scatting, inflections, belting/growling/squalling, scatting
all are types of melisma

[throwintheTAL]

but to answer my own question

the album didn't come out after those moderate hits because the the record company needed a monster to ensure a cute 1st week but rih couldn't fuckin deliver

Love you too bby

the IBICF and Bump & Grind runs are wack

You're such a hater It's sad how much you hate him. Do you have a 'Bert voodoo doll?

and Jazmine doesn't have a wide range at all.

Melisma and runs aren't the same.

Jazmine DOES have a wide range,
and yes melisma and runs are the same
Well runs are a type of melisma

I love jasmine but I wouldn't say she has that wide of a range

thats unfortunate because she really does

Fck u bitch

and when has Kim done perfectly placed runs? I'm officially done here. She literally sounds like a vibrator. Doing random weird runs after every word. Gospel singers can be so annoying. Sor'.

on 3 Way call actually is a perfect example. She only did like 3 runs on that song. That's why Brandy is heavily influenced and compared to Kim. She does runs in just the right places. But they are song complex that it overshadows everything else
she's LEGEND

You know that's cause 'Bert told her to He didn't want her ruining his song

he ruined it at the end himself with them WAILS

Kim actually ruined that song. I always skip over her part. Should've just been Kellz and Kelly Price. They were perfect together.

youre being so immature
Now she ruined it
but just a second ago you implied that she didn't
and Robert stopped her
which is it?

IMO, she did. She wasn't needed. It was perfect with Kellz and Kelly Price. I don't like her tone for the song.

and I imagine that he did tell her that because she didn't do many runs and she's known for that stuff right?

shes known for how great her runs are
but not for overdoing them.

OH?!

Contemporary R&B vocalists are often known for their use of melisma, popularized by vocalists such as Michael Jackson, R. Kelly, Stevie Wonder,[1] Whitney Houston[1][2][3] and Mariah Carey.[2][4][5]

[RekeRig]

Yea Kim (on record) doesn't really overdo it at all. kinda like Jazmine

and Jazzy may not show it off a lot, but her range is pretty impressive

so this just duped your whole argument
you said he barely does runs

Well I'd like to hear it. I feel like there is a pocket that she stays in. I love it but still........She even just made that video about not singing songs from her 2nd cd because they are "HARD" to sing. She has a range she likes to stay within IMO

oh no i definitely agree with that last part. she's super similar to Brandy in that regard "i can do that but EH"    She definitely sticks to her stronger areas

I can agree with her comfort zone
every singer has one but Jaz has about 3 solid octaves she's shown on record. Which is 24 notes from bottom to top
it's not Mariah, but it's very good

He did in the 90's - 00's. I don't hear him do it a lot in his new songs now. That's what I meant.
