Who is your favorite and why. For me it occurs to me that Aguilera would be my pick. For me she has a voice that moves me more, and when she isn't trying to oversing had an astonishingly soulful voice.

I don't want to build a case, as this is just a subjective opinion. I think Beyonce is overrated, and Carey career became quickly less interesting to me.

Am interested to hear your opinions. To the troll know it all feel free not to post.

Thanks.

Mariah was my fav before she turned into a complete diva, and Christina I liked too, before the long drawn out screaming vocals.....Beyonce, I was never a fan of, and to this day, still don't see what the big deal about her is, and that's my honest opinion.

I agree, Beyonce can sing, but her vocals leave me cold. I was never a big fan of her catalogue, and suddenly she was annointed Queen. Lemonade seemed like it would be interesting by the video but the music never stuck. She is no Aretha, she is no Whitney even. As an artist I would put her below Janet Jackson despite the fact technically Beyonce would be a much better singer, Janet's vocals worked on her songs. I get no empathy for Beyonce's performance, where Janet had many ways to get to you.

Mariah because her earlier catalog had substance. Although she has a nice voice, I never really listened that closely to Christina and you all already know how I feel about Beyonce.

Mariah Carey because she wrote all her schitt.

Beyonce is the best live performer. I think she also has the most interesting music (her last 3 albums), although she doesn't have really classic hits like Mariah does. Her first album to me is a real classic.

I saw mariah live too, she can carry a show, but she not working the stage like Beyonce.

Don't like Christina at all, i see the talent, but someting just puts me off with her.

I never cared for Aguilera. I even hate her voice. It's too bombastic and the runs are just obnoxious. Beyonce, when she was with Destiny's Child, was awesome, as were her first two solo projects. Once she became Sasha Fierce, I was turned off. Mariah...ALWAYS a fan. The whistle register is still intact (for the most part), AND she's even written a couple of Christmas classics! Not too many out there who can say they have THAT under their belts! My only complaint is how her career gradually declined as a result of having lost her Pop direction after having favored too many Hip Hop-infused musings. Not to mention, she DOES write ALL her own STUFF! That, to ME, spells a-r-t-i-s-t, AND chartwise, she has slayed the other two beYOND and BACK. <3

None of them even though I used to like some Mariah Carey songs back in the day (late 80s and 90s). Christina Aguilera never caught my attention and Beyoncé is a good artist but not revolutionary like Madonna was when she started out. I'd choose Vanity anyway When it comes to vocal ability: Whitney Houston all the way.
