I’d say he is similar to Adele, a leading person in music that doesn’t need to follow trends to be popular and does his own unique thing (making him and her not generic)

Ariana grande is the definition of being popular and also generic. following trends rather than her own musical style. You can telll she doesn’t have any direction for her own music and her managers and team get the songs/sound for her. She is essentially a vessel of her team and managers, and just is a voice alone
He is the definition of a follower really and he always has been, there's so many people that sound just like him. He's just your typical singer songwriter white guy with a guitar, American Idol had about three different versions of him every year before anyone even knew his name. There is literally nothing about his music that is unique and that's always been the case.
