And because singers have "technique" doesn't mean they can emote.
Expressive singing>>>>>>>impressive singing.
I agree with the last sentence but don't mistake it, there are plenty of singers who have a healthy technique and can also express greatly whatever emotion they are putting forth in a song.

No way.
Impressive singing (technique) >>>>> "expressive" singing (something that can't be judged fairly)
First of all, emoting is something that every singer can do with the right song. And second, you need to be able to do both to be a great vocalist.
Case in point
In what world is Rihanna is "expressive" though? When has she ever just lost herself in the music? I'd like to see this emoting y'all are speaking of.
An impressive vocalist is expressive. See Mariah. Not only did she have technical skill, but she incorperated many different dynamics to the way she sung. But truth be told, "emotion" is complety subjective. So no.
her emotions make up for some of her vocal flaws. her emotion is so raw and real that she can take a bland song and make it come alive. thats more impressive than sheer vocal ability ala mariah carey for example

This is true. Often times, it's the singers who arent the best technically that can capture emotion better. Like Mary J. Blige for instance. She is so raw and sincere when she is singing. I think there are moments where Rihanna captures emotion well and can sound heartfelt like on the songs Fire Bomb, California King Bed, Love the Way You Lie, Stay, Farewell

I know a few that can do both. A rarity in pop music.
The beyhive clinging to this thread She can absolutely sing with emotion, and it is one of the reasons why her songs are so amazing, regardless if the song is playful or not.
