Trey Songz


Okay so of course I'm going to say this, he is so cute! Just had to put that out there, but honestly this southern boy has a style with his music unlike anyone else. Besides making his own songs, he also takes songs made by other rappers, and singers, adds his own twist to them, and bases them around himself and his career. He started out at a young age, but has grown to become one of the most talented, and capivating singers of his century. I don't just like him for his looks, I like him for the way he came out into the music world, and the very first message he sent to the world. That message was, "I just got to make it". Like most people, he might not wear a suit, and he my not have a lot to smile about, but no matter what he has to and will strive to make it.

Mariah Carrey



Her name alone says it all. Ms. Carrey is a very beautiful and talented individual. Each time she hits her highest notes I just get blown away, because I wish so bad I could hit them myself. Not only is she a singer, but she a good actress as well. One thing I can relate to with her, is her struggle, before she became a singer. Her life wasn't easy and she did go through a lot including with her parents, and I feel that I know exactly how she might have felt during those times. That's what makes her an inspiration to me. I wouldn't say she is at the top of my life of greatest singers ever, but she is on the list.

Luther Vandross


This man had one of the most talented voices I have ever heard. His range was remarkable. He couldn't go as deep as Barry White but he was pretty close. To me it wasn't and isn't just about music with Mr. Vandross. It was about heart. He had more heart than most singers I know. Yes, he was a big guy, but in the mist of everything, he made steps to correcting it not only for his health, but for his passion and his dream. His appearance wasn't what people thought of when they heard his voice, the images it created is what they say. Any person that can make a song about a chair and a room, capaviate the hearts of its listeners, and put so much soul into it is a "bad" person. Even though he passed a while back, I still listen to his music as if it is brand new.
