As for singers voices, i really don’t understand it. There are great singers out there, independant artists who don’t get mainstream attention but there’s definitely no Mariah Careys or Whitney Houstons in the music scene these days which does suck.
Every guy singer thay comes out be sounding like Ed Sheeran and every girl singer sounds like Dua Lipa.. variety ain’t there

I think that Becky Hill is the most successful contestant from The Voice fullstop, even including international versions, she's definitely done well for herself which is good to see.
And I agree that there are still great singers out there, but like you've said, unfortunately the Media does ignore them because they either don't have the right look, or they have come from a Talent Show, which to me definitely has impacted the Music scene in a negative way, as we're losing out on a lot of good singers due to the attitude of the money people in the Music Industry.
And I agree with you about a lot of the younger men and women trying to sound like Ed or Dua Lipa, it's just not what I personally want to keep listening to.
