Why are Hybe groups still popular without great vocals?

  • Because kpop fans are only here for the visuals, performances and variety, and HYBE's groups satisy the criteria well.

  • The sole reason why Britney Spears is more popular is her sex appeal and music. Does this also apply to every HYBE group?

    The point of my post isn’t “there is only one way to become popular”, it’s “vocals are not needed to become popular”. Did I say that using sex appeal is how every single pop stars become popular or that Britney Spears is the only blueprint for success?

Use your logical thinking skills if you have any please before replying to me with nonsense and putting words in my mouth.

  • Because kpop stans don't understand that "good vocals" doesn't mean just one style of singing. By the standards of a classical singer every kpop vocalist is dogshit. This is a 15 year old narrative that was popularised by exols. Singing is not maths! We can prefer style, emotion and theatrics over classic r&b vocals that all sound interchangeably similar!

  • Great vocals are 'nice to have' in Kpop, not 'must have'. And it is not only Hybe groups.

    Kpop's USP is visual performance, where vocals are just one aspect. and fan service.


    If you want great vocals, go listen to opera singers, folk etc.,

  • If I did want great and excellent vocals why would choose kpop vocalists ill just listen to ms lea salonga not some kpop idols who dont even sing live

  • This is a really dumb set up troll thread and you ain’t slick lmaooo

    When the most successful ggs rn are Bp and Twice and Itzy, all of whom are not more vocally proficient than Hybe ggs, you’re being too obvious singling out only Hybe groups. Popular music acts in the whole world have historically never succeeded with talents only but with good catchy music and charisma. Vocal talents are a nice bonus but never a necessity. Why do you think Britney Spears was much more popular than Christina Aguilera despite not being as good a singer? Taylor Swift is the biggest female act rn and she’s not very vocally proficient at all. When will people stop asking dumb questions like WhY aRe ThEy PoPuLaR wItHoUt GrEaT vOcALs when that’s a completely brainless question istg :facepalm:

    Excuse you, Britney has good vocals. They just made her sing in that weird child-like breathy voice to help with her branding.

  • Why are you pretending it's a kpop thing? That's how things work everywhere.


    People want good songs. In my country the most popular singer is avarage vocally wise; a country of 7m and she had concerts with 100k people, that's how popular she is. And she's not the only one who's popular and avarage vocally. People care about songs and charisma. When you pay for a concert ticket of pop artist you want to have a good time, you need a good perform to hype up a crowd (they always sings live tho, artists that dance too). If you want good vocals go to the opera or adele who stands in front of the mic the whole time. And that's not a drag, that's the way she does it. I have faves who does it too, it's a different type of performance.


    Britney and Madona are one of the most popular pop performers in history. Michael Jackson too, his impeccable vocals would be useless if he didn't have great songs and stage presence.

    learn to read. I didn’t say britney has terrible vocals, i said she’s not as good a singer as christina, which is a fact.

    getting real tired of people not reading and replying to me with dumb, irrelevant arguments :facepalm:

  • Because people wanna stan bts hoobaes! Plus good marketing and media play do the rest.

  • Also, "sm artist are great vocalists, the best in kpop!"; who cares when they always lip sync. Their great vocals are useless when nobody hears them. There's no difference between bellow avarage, avarage and great vocalists if they all lip sync, they are all the same.


    And dragging bts for being avarage when they always perform live lol. Drag your faves who forgot what live singing is
