Why Do People Mention Bom A Lot When Hyolyn Suffered The Same Decline? (2 Viewers)

[Darkyoda47]

-
Avoids the high notes, voice cracks, can't sustain high notes. Hyolyn suffered the same vocal decline Bom did, except toned down. A lot of people use to praise Hyolyn calling her the "Korean Beyonce" but what nobody realized was, the girl's been straining since day 1. She was never taught to sing properly. Observe; (0:24 time stamp)

Sounds amazing, right? Truth is, she was straining throughout the whole song. You can hear the desperation not to crack throughout the whole performance. Actually, at the end you can see she's not able to keep up the high parts.

Well anyway, the macro point of this thread is that, none of our main vocal favs (Jihyo, Rose) are safe ​

I had no idea Bom had the "vocal-declnining" aura though. To me she is a really good vocalist.

I'm not super familiar with how popular 2nd gen ggs were, so I might be wrong. But, I think it's because 2ne1 was bigger than Sistar was + people liked to hate on them more. More people probably wanted to jump on a Bom hate train than they did a Hyolyn one.

Oh honey, girl's voice is a mess. Good recording artist though. Shouldn't really sing live.

I'm pretty satisfied with what I saw during Spring promotions. I mean, most of it was quite live.

Nah SISTAR were definitely as big as 2NE1. They probably had more hits than 2NE1 too. I don't get why her decline isn't highlighted though. I mean Bom's "bad vocal" name rose like towards the end of their lifespan. Something like 2014? I will say though, Hyolyn's decline is way more visible now because she's solo. It was masked since she had Soyu around. Bom didn't really have anyone else.

Hyolyn is too much of a flop for anyone to care.

She needs sistar back. I always liked her tho. Shes so hot.

Yeah I will say she's improved quite a bit since leaving YG, though the strain is still real and still dangerous.

I wish I was around for SISTAR :hmm:

Tbh they all need SISTAR back. All are flopping badly.

I'll use my contacts to let them know.

I wouldn't really know, I go with tone and how things sound to me when I judge vocals and I haven't liked Hyorin's tone and vocals when I like Bom's ^^; It is bit interesting though based on how much people have put Hyorin to same line with Ailee and not just fans, but they collab all the time. I don't think Hyorin is that bad though, she's able to vocally go there, play with her voice a bit and has her own style of singing too. But maybe she's not as good as people made her, technically especially.

She's not. She's pretty overrated. Her management did a good job promoting her with that "vocal diva" image though. They gave her BIG songs to sing on reality shows, most of the time out of her range, made sure all of SISTAR's titles had those killer high notes and media played the fuck out of her so called "vocal competition" with Ailee.

Perfect marketing tbh.

 

[Darkyoda47]

SISTAR

Digital queens tbh

I'll never get use to 3rd gen stans because what is a world without KARA, T-ara, Secret and SISTAR?

Frst of all, LOVE them both. I personally think it's a combination of things but mostly Bom's voice is SOOO noticeable and when her voice is rough you can really tell because it's just super noticeable. That's the only way to put it for me.

Secondly, I also think Hyo now is a better singer than Bom in her prime so that's another reason less people talk about it. Bom sometimes can't even stay on the note, whereas Hyo sounds great to me, she just strains in some places she didn't used to.

I would still put Hyo up against any vocalist and 8/10 times I think she'll sound better. Bom, on the other hand.....I love her so much.
