How much of your opinion of her is based on her SNL performance? She choked under pressure almost as badly as Lee Evans and Billy Cundiff of the Baltimore Ravens did last Sunday.Originally Posted by Mutatis-Mutandi
If you listen to her album, she has quite a thing going. Her voice is very unique and oddly nuanced. She has great pitch too. Her lyrics might not be the best, but she actually tries and has her moments. Her lyrics are easily far superior to anything Lady Gaga has ever written. (not that Lady Gaga is a benchmark, just simply saying that Del Rey is the last popular artist to be hating on right now)
I'm not trying to say your opinion is wrong, but I suspect you might have had a terrible first impression of her that is clouding your perspective a bit. Maybe not. But it seems that way because you talk like her voice is objectively bad when I actually consider it objectively at least competent.
Also it seems like half the criticism of her stems from the fact she is from a wealthy family. Who cares?
