Quote:
On songs like the Cole Porter standard "Anything Goes" and the title track, Gaga sounds like what she thinks a jazz singer should sound like; her performances are blatantly affected, marred by shouting and clichéd phrasing. She displays a total dearth of the vocal precision and enunciation that made her so-called idols the masters they were; her timbre on eden ahbez's "Nature Boy," for instance, is wildly inconsistent, shifting from soft and almost pleasant to parodic and comical, often within just a few short bars.

The irony of this supposed "drag" is that Ms. Campo's
writing hate speech sounds like what she thinks a jazz critic should sound like; her obnoxious and vitriolic references to phrasing, timbre, and intonation, as if she has any inkling on what these terms actually mean in a musical context. Though she might think she's qualified in vocal pedagogy, she's really nothing more than a glorified blogger who couldn't differentiate between a mix or head voice.
Sorry Alexa, one second Gaga's the fake and then suddenly the fake is you!
ugh poor Gaga 
legit sad
Like, what an absolutely awful review... unprofessional and unnecessary for sure.
Its going to be like a checklist at this point.
