She absolutely nailed it!
one of the best Kelly Clarkson shoutouts ever!
As a pro musician who has been in the industry for over 25 years I can honestly say I have played with or seen such incredible singers that would smoke most people on these so called talent shows. But they won't enter because they are 1, older, or 2, dont want to denigrate themselves on a glorified talent contest. Its a shame. Its horrible. The industry is F'd.
I love Linda and her band they are phenominal Linda is so very talented in singing and writing songs
I've been saying this for so long. We are saturated with singers but missing ARTISTS.
She was honest, without disrespecting the contestants.
Linda is FUCKING AMAZING!!! Excuse my language, but I cant emphasize enough. Shes so Real, and Honest. She knows REAL music, and understands the shit so many crappy people are putting out nowadays isnt good at all
I think most people got the bullshit with these shows from the start. She's just stating what the audience out there already knew for quite awhile. there's nothing amazing about that. What's more amazing is the moronic people who still watching these shows to this day.
I was a top 5 contestant on The Voice and Linda is 100% right. It's a very hollow form of success. I was 21 years old at the time and I went on the show because I wanted to be famous. I wanted adulation and recognition (that I hadn't earned) And it amounted to nothing but a few months of good paying gigs. I erroneously thought that people watched those shows looking for new artists to follow their eventual creative output but I was wrong. They watch because they like that tv show, and nothing more. Now I make my music and put it out which is enough for me, but I have released 10 albums since then and all of the people who "voted for me" don't support it in any way. My original music is completely over-shadowed by the 10 karaoke songs I recorded for The Voice. What Linda Perry is saying is a tough pill to swallow, and it's the reality. I love her.
Always loved her as an artist. Now the more I hear her talk the more I like her as a person. She tells it like it is!
Love that she gave PJ Harvey a shout out, both amazing artists.
actually she speaks a lot of sense she's only tellin what many of us logical yet common ppl (public) think but don't say out loud or can't say out loud coz we aren't on tv but finally someone who is can say it.. these music competitions are fraud when it comes to talent and idols
She totally gets it.
Linda Perry is legit
yes a legit weirdo

thank you my friend
I love Linda Perry's music she's absolutely awesome 🤓
ЛГБТ
i totally agree with her
I have to agree. Most of the American Idol, and The Voice contestants sound like generic run around town singers. Not saying they're bad, but I've never heard one that made me say WOW! And she's right, they're not artists, they're people who sing, and singing...someone else's song no less, isn't going to get you a mansion in Malibu with a shelf full of Grammy's. There's tons and tons of people who can sing.....but not everyone can be an artist.
But look at Ariana Grande, what a shame honestly
Adam.Lambert is a great artist !! The voice and American Idol are "singing competitions" not sonwriter or Complete Artist competition..
I can tell you that if you go to any karaoke bar in the Philippines, on any given night there will be 5-6 potential American idol winners there. Good singers are a dime a dozen.
That's true but it seems that the majority of people want pop, but I think that you need to be more than a singer, you need to be an artist with your own vision
Fantasia and Jennifer Hudson can sing but that is it, Jennifer does act. Other then that it’s like ok. Kelly clarkson I would agree is a beast I believe she write music, just a beast at what she does.
I was really happy wen she talked about Kelly in a positive way because she is VERY talented!
Can't question her talent when she can back it up. And she can.
I freaking love Linda Perry!! ❤
"These people who have never made it": yes, Linda, exactly!!!!
I love her so much.
She nails it!
She's a gem and she is spot on...
She's right about The Voice. It's more about the coaches than the contestants.
It really is
@@lateshiachilds3640 I'd call them more like cockroaches more than coaches :D
she paid her dues ,so many great talents never ever get the chance and pay dearly for failure
I was about to be a little disappointed in what she was saying...and then she said, "except Kelly Clarkson. She would have made it!"
Yup...I agree 100% with what she's saying!!!
That guy started to get obsessed with the idea of a Linda game show.. omg what happened :O
Linda Perry is just plain awesome.
I love Linda Perry she preaching the truth 👏👏👏👏
So right so bright so beautiful I love her ❤
Love Linda Perry...she is a awesome person.
Hello, I am 65 years young and I totally Respect Linda Perry for her music, her voice is magical to me, we don't always need rock and roll , I see her spirit and sole in her music, and I will get her CDs TO here. We all change as we grow older and her music makes me feel better and younger! To ANY BAND PLAY MUCIC DO WHAT YOU LOVE. THANK YOU TO ALL
You are extremely special....i grew up on the best music ever composed.....and it would have not been complete without hearing your soul....thank you so very mush for shareing your feelings.....
The music industry has changed beyond recognition in recent years, the true artists, the ones with talent are ignored if they are not attractive on camera or won't bend at the knee to the record labels or express opinions not widely respected, meanwhile the record company's care about one thing, the bottom line, how much money can we make out of this attractive audience pleasing sucker, before we throw them to the dogs and consign them to the vast music history quick fire library, Linda's right, most wouldn't have made it without BGT ............. Most can read a book, it doesn't mean everyone can write one.
Yes in the 90's artists had their own visions, their own creativity. Now I feel like everything is cookie cutter and run by the execs
Exactly I truly agree, me and a friend always talking about the music industry and how things have changed and it’s sad. Especially now, the mainstream stations everyone sound the same pretty much.
@@baiaforev2407 same with 80s and 70s also
Interesting that she says she didn’t watch The Voice because she performed with Christina on the show several times.
100% agree they suck, you have to earn your place in music.
Wtf all the hate. This woman has accomplished so much.
For ye criticism supported by particular arguments is a hate?...congratz. There is a huge difference between hate and criticism. She has right. These competitions are factories of untalented, plastic idiots focused on themselves and the money and quick career. Nothing else. SO no Hun, stop calling every single word of critic as a hate cuz ye wrong totally.
She's definitely got it right about Kelly Clarkson!
I agree
brasileira...sangue quente..rsrsrrsrs
Yip. I just realized your comment was 5 years ago so why am I still typing?
I think Carrie Underwood would have. Definitely deserves her Fame anyway.
@@joesnelson4041 It's never too late. lol
Great opinion and love how she acknowledges Kelly Clarksons talent.
Song writing, Linda. It's song writing you're looking for. I agree wholeheartedly. These talent show people, for the most part, are not song writers. Absolutely, who cares if they can sing. That will not sustain a career. To be an artist you have to create. They're not creators.
She's Brilliant !
i believe she is true, i've hit the grind for years, maybe a little over 20 years now. and over twenty years ago i had that dream of a gold record. I was young, i could and still play music. Now these days the songs i write and play for people has the best meaning to me then the songs people who all a sudden made the idol can ever write. The years, the bands, man, it has been such a deadly experience for me. Anyway's, I believe in the experience, the true experience when it come's to trying to make it in the biz, the songs i wrote and performed for people and loved ones..., man. its so easy though still hard to explain. the thing is i will write and perform on my own terms. its easier for me to remember lyrics when i can remember that time and place in my life. From Canada, with a cold beer in my hand, watching a hockey game on CBC and not to mention a guitar beside me.
I couldn't agree more with everything she's just said none of these talent show people would ever have made it being able to sing doesn't make you an artist there are a million that can belt out a tune at there local karaoke
It would be fun to have Linda Perry sing “What’s Up?”, just to see if any of the judges turned their chairs.
Love her :)
Linda Perry’s so freakin inspiring!
Raw, pure, ugly, beautiful… respect ✊🏼
well said Linda You are born with talent •All these Americas got talent shows and the like These people aren't gifted They are simply not talented
I’m a chef and I feel the same way for my industry with social media
Linda Perry❤❤❤❤❤
Everyone should listen to Linda Perry. She speaks the truth. For real.
good, yes...legendary, not a chance.
I completely agree with every single word!!
Thank You,Linda I never watch those crazy shows, either ÷ )
Perfectly said Linda.
In Hollywood it's not actually how good your voice is. It's about your look. People nowadays looking for look not actually the voice. She is right.
TOTALLY with Linda on this!
Word to your mother! I used to see Linda at the Nightbreak on Haight St. and countless San Francisco street fairs. She got signed the hard way, which is what she meant, when it is all ready such competition.
Pena que fez sucesso com apenas uma música, essa guria merece muito mais , é guerreira 🙏
Sie hat viele Songs für andere geschrieben.....
Pure honestly luv it ❤️👌
I had singers from The Voice and American Idol at my studio. We tried and help these guys with their careers, but since they are neither musicians, songwriters or performers there was not much to work with.
I agree with her. There are probably 500k or more people in this country that can sing at least as well as and probably better than most of what we see on those shows, who never get their break for a lot of different reasons. A lot of people on The Voice and Idol are there because of their story (that's what sells advertising), not their talent.
*Linda e maravilhosa!*
*A voz que encanta!*
I love Linda Perry
She is so awesome
Adam Lambert would’ve made it too
Even tho I love Linda’s work, she performed on The Voice with Xtina several times. So it’s kinda like “The show is shit, but I will get on if I get paid” kind of thing.
Leon Lee yeah good for her
Kelly Clarkson is really a LOT MORE than just an american idol.
Amen sister . . . .
I love her.. I JUST FUCKIN LOVE HER!!!
She's absolutely right. These shows are about the judges and not contestants.
Linda NAILED IT! Feeling and emotion is taking a backseat to a pretty face and perfect pitch.
Janis Joplin was NOT technically perfect.......All BOW to that fucking soul though!
Yep, I'm glad I'm not the only to think that.
Daughtry getting told he didn't have talent is what woke me up to that show being bs.
She possesses more talent in her left thumb than all the judges on AI put together.
She's right, the industry is being corrupted. Talent no longer rises organically (because it should) it wins tickets to leap ahead. Been going on for along time, to the detriment of music lovers.
Huge fan of Linda's!! A Blondegg!
I love you Linda Perry
Linda Perry, me encantan tus canciones, tú forma de interpretar, bueno todo me encanta de ti, gracias por todas tus buenísimas canciones! !!!!!!!
Linda Perry 🔥💯🔥
linda perry is a great song writer. i love her relationship with pink. two strong talented women
I am a big fan of Linda Perry's What's Up song and I must agree with her. For all those who feel the music inside, go out there, let it out, try all avenues, karaoke bars, restaurants, video yourself, go out express yourself. The music is to be felt from inside, and people will notice you no matter your age, gender, or belief system.
Yeah. Mick Jagger really wasn't the best singer, but he wrote his own music. She has a point.
music is an extension of life, you cannot manipulate it for it loses it's meaning
God damn advertisements I wouldn't it eat at chilis if they paid me
I fully agree
Spot on!
Linda is totally right, this new kids can sing but, is that all there is?
I'm glad she named Kelly Clarkson, and I think Carrie Underwood & Jennifer Hudson would be 2 more. Apart from them, the rest are "where are they now?" sort of thing.
1:50 I just love Linda! :)
She's awesome
Kelly Clarkson is a national treasure
So true
I agree with her 100%
American Idol is all about the spectacle of the judges and their judgments. The contestants are there for the sake of the performance that the judges put on.
and thats why i love her... the voice
if only they would discover another Chris Cornell, yea RIGHT
Bob Dylan, Rolling Stones, Pj Harvey, Patty Smith
Interesting list.
Olá! Que pena ñ entendo inglês,eu gostaria saber o que linda perri estava dizendo!.mas vouaprender inglês.
Continua linda e maravilhosa
SHE'S so Right !! I love Linda Perry ! She's still having the 90's spirit !
All those trashy Reality shows of the 2000's and 10's, about "great singers discovered" are a complete trash ! .. ruined the music industry ! ..
They are not real artists ! ..
You don't go to a reality for express your art ! ..
A lot of people can sing well ..
They're just generic ..
Sing with a great voice and have 10 producers behind you, that made your songs, is not being an artist ! ..
Being an artist is other thing ..
Alternative bands, indie bands, they know pretty well what is that ..
But trashy pop stars don't know ..
Is not about money ! Or recognize, or fame ! .. Is about made something really good, express something ..
Really .. Britney Spears is gonna judge you ??? XDDD
Even an unknown musician from San Francisco streets is thousand times better judge than they ..
Those realitys are only made for middle class dumbs that think music is only about "have a nice voice, have fame, and make everyone cries with the hard story of your life" .. xDDDD
What's up with the unpleasant and nihilist spirit of the 90's ??
Can we recovered it for once more ?
🔥💯🔥
I agree 100% with her.
Here's a prime example. I'm a songwriter myself and I could of easily rode the coat tails of my God brother and got into country music but I refused to I want to earn my own way .
"Can they sing? Yeah! But who cares"?!
So the music-vocal industry is not about people who can sing?
I would love to be able to sing and its still not enough?
Full episode?
Agree 100%
