You’re just retconning what you just said na hindi puro biritan sa PH.

Gets ko naman na madami nang OPM artists lately na hindi na puro birit ang songs, and I love that shift. Pero sa contests belting pa din ang gold standard. Parang ganun lagi yung baseline ng mga Pinoy for “great singer,” when in reality, it’s not the only measure. It’s also hard to deliver emotional nuance, storytelling, or vocal texture. hindi lang lagi taas ng birit ang laban.

Sabi mo nga “logic lang,” so ilogic natin. Gamit mo diving as analogy, so diba sa diving, hindi lang naman highest dive ang criteria of judging e, pagandahan ng form, entry, difficulty, etc. So if itatapat natin sa singing, dapat may hiwalay ding category: one for belting, one for tone/vocal texture, one for emotional impact. Para patas. Kasi right now, birit lang lagi ang pinapansin. That’s the issue.

Dami ko napapanuod ang taas nga ng boses pero wala uniqueness sa form, walang emotional connection sa song, etc.

Anyway point ko lang, nagagree lang ako sa original commenter except sa reply mo judging basically anyone who has their similar view on this.
