I disagree, it only became generic once he became popular. He has a very distinct voice and has set the lead in pop music, rather than followed behind.

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
