      @@nolanharris4111 nah man.... I mean I feel ya... But this ain't "food".... As a musician myself, there's one thing that eventually became clear to me.... You have to be happy with what you create.. Or your "creativity".. That's where the love is as a musician... If all musicians operated on your idea, they all would be compromising who they are as a musician in order to please an "audience"... I call it a thirst to stay relevant.. Which eventually, bites the musician in the ass.... As an artist, you have to do you.... Otherwise you'll loose your identity.... Take a look at the GOATs my friend.... Imagine if MJ compromised his identity to please the audience... We may have never got "Thriller" 🤷🏾‍♂️💯

      Yep. Only VOCALIST I can think of who rivals him VOCALLY is Tonex/B Slade. However, I like Avery's tone better than Tonex's. So sonically, I prefer hearing Avery's voice more. But as far as vocal ability, range, and technicality I don't think I've ever heard a male vocalist better than those two.

    Only VOCALIST I can think of who rivals Avery Wilson VOCALLY is Tonex/B Slade. However, I like Avery's tone better than Tonex's. So sonically, I prefer hearing Avery's voice more. But that's just preference/opinion. But as far as the measurable things go i.e. vocal ability, range, and technicality, I don't think I've ever heard a male vocalist better than those two.
    Ps. For the people who don't know music, I said "vocalist" for a reason. A pop star/hit maker/singer/R&B star and a vocalist are two completely different things. Just because someone makes hit songs or even good music doesn't mean they're a great vocalist and it doesn't make them better than Avery or Tonex or any of the dope underground vocalists for that matter.

      Random fact: Brian McKnight and I went to the same Alma Mater. He comes back every year in April for our annual Alumni Weekend basketball tournament. While he was there, back in 06' when I was a freshman, they asked him to perform a few gospel songs at the annual Alumni concert. He agreed but asked for background singers! I happened to be performing in the Freshman concert portion of the program. So the night before the concert we were doing sound check for my song and Brian heard me. I had no clue he was there!! After I left the stage he asked me if I knew "Total Praise" and "The Lord's Prayer". I said yeah, and he asked if I could sing backup for him! So long story short, I got to sing backup for Brian McKnight in front of 5,000 people! One of the best night's of my life!!!
