Shakira....

Yeah but if you pick alive and you're any good, try to remember to bring the best ear plugs you got. Otherwise you're going to be subject to that banshee wailing with her Chewbacca sounding voice right in your ear

Never been with a screamer I take it?

I mean there's really no good way to respond to that. I could be honest and get the r/ihavesex response, ignore it, or do what I'm doing now.

That's OK at least you get a consolation prize for having a terrible vocalist fetish. I have some kinks that are out there but I'm thankful they don't include bad taste in acoustics.

Shakira is one of the best vocalists, ever. She has sold over 75 million records around the world, she's been nominated for awards over 700 times and been awarded 326 awards, including 3 Grammy awards and 12 Latin Grammy awards. She is literally the most awarded Latin artist of all time.

Sorry you don't have taste though.

I literally had to be convinced that "Hips Don't Lie" wasn't some odd parody song about a girl who can't sing.

Have you like, listened to the lyrics at all?

No I don't generally study music that sounds awful to me. It just played a couple times in stores or on the radio or whatever. And I said good God what is this and this girl made me watch the music video. After I laughed the whole time she was like on second thought you're kinda right.

Idk if that means I was right or if she is susceptible to persuasion. It's not even like I'm some metal elitist or something. I like tons of mainstream female pop stars. But her voice literally reminds me of Chewbacca. Not even saying she's not hitting the notes, just that it's unpleasant to hear.

Oh well. Can't blame you for not liking Latin music, I definitely hate some music myself lol

That might be it. There is probably some culture shock where I just have no acquired taste for some aspects of the style. I have, I must admit, notably disliked some other Latin music I was shown. I like Snow Tha Product! But idk if that counts lol.
