Why do you dismiss Mary so?

This isn't the first time. To compare her to Janet is str8 heresy.

PeaceRun,

What is 9x3 talking about anybody who knows anything about vocal ability knows Mary can not sing. She has gotten better but is okay at best. First, 9x3 was tripp'in about with the bullshit thread "the greatest sax solo ever", dude is comong off very suspect. I wonder if he is BLACK? He is coming across like a really suspect.

Even with Mary's challenged skills she is still better than that wack, dope-fiend, alcoholic broad Winehouse.

Robert Christgau dismissed Winehouse as "a self-aggrandizing self-abuser who's taken seriously because she makes a show of soul". In his opinion, the singer "simulated gravitas by running her suicidal tendencies through an amalgam of 20th-century African-American vocal stylings—the slides, growls, and melismatic outcries that for many matures are now the only reliable signifiers of pop substance".
