I agree that he is probably the best k-pop vocalist of his generation. maybe all generations. I've heard many of the best of the best kpop vocalists and in my opinion Jongho has the best technique with everything he does.
YESSS
I love seeing Lee Mujin and Jongho geeking out over music. Lee Mujin doesn’t often act this way with guest so it’s cute to see. He’s also a lot more comfortable acting this way since they are the same age. So he’s able to let loose a bit. Jongho is continuously learning and practicing to hone his skills. He said that after performing at Coachella for week 1 he went to his vocal coach in LA to practice some more. His vocal coach is Seth Rigg’s daughter Katie Riggs. She was so impressed by him that she even offered to go to Korea to keep working with him. Whenever he’s in LA he always book a few sessions with her.
Yes!! I love when Jongho gets the appreciation he deserves. He worked extremely hard to become as good as he is, and he keeps getting better.
Wow, Tim! Now I'm even more eager to see your analysis of Jongho's vocals in "So You" on Immortal Songs
and Wildflower!
Jongho became a trainee in early middle school. He says he was 14 but that was the old Korean age system (long story) so he was probably 12 or maybe late 11 depending on the month. He's been studying a long time. He doesn't use grit in songs very often but I love when he does. I hear him do it most when he's imitating Mingi
I think you haven't heard much or enough if you think he's the best vocalist you've heard in KPOP. Don't take me wrong, he's insane, as you said... But you should REALLY listen to Jonghyun from SHINee (Or even Onew, Key and Taemin), at Changmin from TVXQ, at EXO in general (But mainly Chen, Baekhyun, D.O, Suho), BTOB which you already know (Eunkwang one of the best in KPOP, or Changsub, Hyunsik), you also need to listen to DAY6, all members besides the drummer, so Young K, Sungjin and Wonpil), MOST of Super Junior (Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Yesung, Donghae, Heechul) And come on you listened to The Boyz New and Sangyeon! You listened to Seventeen DK and Seungkwan! I feel like "VOCALLY" speaking, you haven't gotten to the big vocal groups of KPOP. You are on the flashy explosive ones. Hopefully you expand more on those soon. Even though I love BTS, ATEEZ or Stray Kids, none of them are considered vocal groups. Keep going, this was good!
I agree there are many more amazing vocalists Tim hasn't heard yet or hasn't heard enough of yet! Ateez, SKZ and BTS are some of my favs but they aren't known for their vocals as much as some of the older generation idols specifically. All three groups are more rap and performance focused. I do think Jongho is one of the best vocalists of the 4th gen though.
10:00 — I don’t disagree! But I DO think you need to listen to more SHINee, especially Jonghyun, to know why people compare Jongho to him. When you know both of them well, I would love to hear what similarities you’d draw between them.
And also Kyuhyun from super junior is great. Don’t think anyone is better than the other but amazing in their own way
4:15 — “Jongho comes in like this” *proceeds to sing Social Path by SKZ* 😆
