I don't really have a preference, but I have more music sung by females. This is mainly because males seem to try crazier/weirder styles of singing a lot more often and I don't like a lot of them (especially indie bands) whereas females usually have their own styles, but it is more pleasant and just straight up singing.

I didn't think it was intended to seem racist, not at all. I simply wasn't sure if it was meant as soul/hip hop/r&b singers in general or not. In which case, there's little to no need to differentiate between color as Joss Stone and Amy Winehouse would be as bad as Aretha Franklin or Angie Stone*. That's all I was trying to point out.
*By the by, I love Amy Winehouse and Aretha Franklin.

I just think that black female singers tend to overdo melisma, not to say the white female singers don't, but it's just that this OTT melisma thing seems to be standard issue with a lot of black female singers, and frankly, it's very annoying (to me). I don't have a problem with their strong thick voices, just the way they sing.

I like female rappers. they are scary and it makes them cooler.
they sound like chipmunks that wanna rip your face off. i love it. the actual singing, black women beat the pants off of most white girls. fo shizzle
