Yes, Whitney’s tone was richer and fuller, but Beyoncé can hold her own here and is super impressive in her own right.

An individual's personal experiences dictates how they connect with music or vocals, not everyone will connect the same way. Some people and media sources in the early 90s used to say Whitney had no soul and sang like a white woman (their words not mine) for example. Do a search on here for Beyonces cover of "Trust in me" or her live Glastonbury performance of "Beautiful Ones." Plenty of emotive expression/soul but that would be just my opinion on a subjective matter. As such i wouldnt push it as fact as youre doing.

    Beyonce is a good singer and a great performer.
    But when it comes to raw singing, Beyonce - immensely talented as she is - pales in comparison to Whitney Houston who is widely considered and respected as The Greatest Voice of All.
    Whitney's primary strength as a vocalist is the inherent tonal roundness and emotional weight of her incredibly precise voice. These qualities can not be learned; They are bestowed by God upon birth.

      You can hear Beyonce’s voice actually competing with Whitney’s voice in this very video. So I don’t know what you’re talking about. No one’s making it up. You can hear for yourself.
      Whitney is The Voice BUT Beyonce’s clearly proving to us that she can also compete with The Voice and is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. The fact that Beyonce, as a type of Mezzo Soprano, is able to compete with Whitney Houston in vocal agility, range, and power is an enormous testament to Beyonce’s tremendous vocal abilities.
      Beyonce’s lows are better. Beyonce’s growls are better. Beyonce’s vibrato is on par. Beyonce’s agility and dynamics is arguably equal or slightly better. Beyonce has better pitch and arguably better technique.

    Great video. It's obvious that you have a good ear ..very nuanced to be able to distinguish quality notes ..most of the notes you use here are underused and takes some searching into the deep abyss of the youtube archive to find. You know both of them well enough to not just showcase their "popular notes", but ones that truly showcased their skill and prowess over their instrument. Truly enjoyed this, man..Whitney won. Beyoncé's voice is probably the most "malleable" ever. Not only does she have a gorgeous instrument ..very colorful and varied, but she's also turned it into one of the greatest arsenals contemporary pop music. Think about it.. a 'light' small-medium mezzo (whose voices are placed lower on the scale) voice showcasing this type of slayage.. holding her own against a unicorn (spintos) ! wicked support, flight of resonance and a beautiful placement topped with agility and dynamic control used to spearhead her unique musicianship. Contrary to belief, Beyoncé is a once in a generation vocalist. With all that being said, whitney is not only similarly skilled as Beyoncé (although bey is a bit more refined), but she has this rare, magical instrument that's unmatched in beauty, clarity and texture and technically manufactured for these sort of battles. No brainer.

      Yea and what I find interesting is that Whitney sounds like she has a deeper voice than Beyoncé but you can tell that Whitney actually has a higher voice because did you guys notice that Whitney had better dynamic control over her upperbelts? Beyoncé upperbelts are phenomenal and produced amazingly but notice how on F5 and above Beyoncé is really powerbelting while Whitney is going from just simply singing the note to a full on powerbelt. Whitney’s upper register is so underrated. Whitney is often criticized for being really chesty but in her prime in the 80’s her mix was pretty balanced. She had a healthy placement in her mask. Her technique started to change in IYBT where she was making her voice chestier but she switched between that and her balanced mix. Bodyguard she was making the transition to being chestier more of the time but still displayed her balanced mix. After that her technique was deteriorating but she didn’t really sound “bad” until mid 2000’s. Post prime she didn’t show the ability to switch between her mix’s with consistency but she did have her moments. I really wish someone analyzed her technique in her prime vs postprime or even 80’s vs 90’s because the change is subtle but it’s a pretty big deal

      False. Whitney sings in full chest. She is a soprano. So her hitting these notes in full chest is impressive but not unexpected. It’s because of Beyoncé’s great mixing technique, or middle voice, that she is able to not only reach but SUSTAIN these high notes. It’s actually healthier to use a mixed voice when belting anyway. So no Beyoncé’s chest voice is well developed otherwise she wouldn’t be hitting these notes at all. Whitney needed to develop her mixed voice and she might have even been able to hit higher notes than G#5, which if I recall is her belting peak? A soprano? Ariana Grande peaks at Bb5, Demi Lovato can go to A5. Maybe if Whitney developed her mixed voice she wouldn’t have been so limited rangewise.

      it’s debatable. she is amongst the greatest but she is not the best at everything. Beyoncé for instance is better at hitting low notes, being able to hit a f2, while Whitney reached down to a Bb2, even though Bey is still able to belt up to g#5 (like Whitney). Mariah had a control over whistle register that Whitney didn’t have and she could also go lower than Whitney. Celine is able to mix up to a c6, Aretha and Patty as well (and Aretha could go lower than Whitney, down to a g2). Whitney had nearly unmatched vocal power, soul, beauty, the best middle belts and the best head voice, but she wasn’t the best at everything (nobody is). Also, each is singer is unique and has different vibe

    Beyonce deserves her recognition as one of the greatest vocalists of all time. People need to remember that when Beyonce is singing, she is usually dancing and energetically moving around the stage at the same. That is very difficult to do. Aretha, Whitney, Celine, Mariah, Adele etc are all usually standing still when they produce their best vocals. That's an easier thing to do. So, i think people need to give Beyonce her due. She's a fantastic vocalist. HOWEVER, if i was forced at gunpoint to choose who i rate as the best singer of all time..it would be Aretha, closely followed by Whitney. But Beyonce now deserves to be mentioned in that conversation

    I think I know what part of the issue is. Whitney has a maturity and tone to her voice that makes it more full even though they are hitting the same notes and vocal range. Beyonce has a subtler tone which to some people may translate to her not being as good of a singer, which is clearly not true. I'm a huge Bey fan but I can genuinely understand how her voice just doesn't do it for some people.

      Tone doesn’t make you better. Power is in born. So it doesn’t make you better either. And Beyonce doesn’t growl to access her vocal agility. This shows you are musically illiterate.
      You can hear Beyonce’s voice actually competing with Whitney’s voice in this very video. So I don’t know what you’re talking about. No one’s making it up. You can hear for yourself.
      Whitney is The Voice BUT Beyonce’s clearly proving to us that she can also compete with The Voice and is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. The fact that Beyonce, as a type of Mezzo Soprano, is able to compete with Whitney Houston in vocal agility, range, and power is an enormous testament to Beyonce’s tremendous vocal abilities.

    Do you know what I hate about "tone argument?" Nearly every singer/artist has beautiful melodic "tonal colors."
    In fact, most define tone incorrectly. Tonality is about pitch. And if a singer is off pitch, there's no "beauty" in their "tonal quality." Both Beyonce and Whitney has beautiful tonal character. Whitney's more melodic but Beyonce has great melodic character too.
    When you're comparing different voices, it's like comparing different instruments. It's all about the execution of the musician with their instrument.
    Both of them do/did this. That can be objectively heard no matter if an individual like their music, the sound of their voices or whatever. So anyone who wants to use the tonal argument to compare vocal performance is already arguing from a fallacious POV. It's all about the execution of how a musician performs their "instrument" and whether they "impress" the individual, that's not their issue.
    That's all I have to say because these "discussions" are "worthless" and come from a place of musical ignorance especially from those who condescendingly use those arguments from a place where they think they have superior musical knowledge.
    Again, most singers in the industry have beautiful melodic tonal character. So arguing vocal performance excellence from that place, shows the shallowness of musical understanding.
