Nattana 199 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Hi y'all. So I have this question. I've just recently (Rookie and slightly during RR) started getting into RV, but even before I saw people saying that Yeri was the worst singer in the ground and that Wendy was a vocal goddess. So I checked a lot of Rookie live performances, some acapella ones, encore stages and honestly I thought Yeri sounded really good, while Wendy sounded, well, really bad on pretty much every occasion... Voice cracking all the time, flat, off tune etc... Is there something that I'm missing? Did something happen? I will try to check some older stuff of theirs to see if it was really the case, but honestly my feelings are completely opposite to what I've been reading around this forum :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afanofabae 1,833 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 maybe because wendy has more part and her part are difficult-er than yeri and i also hear she has vocal nodule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indigo 16,433 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 It's Wendy She just can't sing when dancing very well lol Yeri is a better dancer and her parts are easier, but she's been trying to improve her singing lately. I hope she can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nattana 199 Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 · Hidden by Maphisto40, March 2, 2017 - No reason given Hidden by Maphisto40, March 2, 2017 - No reason given it's because all red velvet members can't sing. Well, to me they are really good singers and seem very stable despite their intense choreography. It's just that Wendy situation that's been bugging me recently. Link to comment
twintelle 212 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 tbh i kind of noticed that about wendy too, but only in recent rookie performances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShineSoul 870 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 She seems to struggle while dancing, but in parts like the bridge where there is no choreo for her she sounds good. And Yeri has been improving a lot recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haunted 5,365 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Wendy was ill during the Rookie promotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESSON 11,205 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 She was sick. She's the main vocal, check her amazing covers and stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetweenYourThots 1,512 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Wendy overused her voice during trainee years because she wanted to debut badly, so she got nodules like most singers do when they overuse their voices in the sense of ruining it in the long run. But the vocal teacher JJ told her to practice her head voice to be able to compensate for that. She's not a bad singer, just a damaged one.

Joon 8,222 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Wendy is miles away the better singer, and I dont mean that in offense to Yeri who is improving....Wendy is one of the best vocals of this girl group generation. But she does battle vocal nodules, and a song like Rookie kinda limits what she can do. The style of singing is cutesy and Wendy tends to pinch her voice when singing in a cute manner. I love Rookie but I hope in future comebacks RV have songs that allow Wendy to sing with her full voice, because that is where she really shines.

Daria~ 13,886 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Yeri's parts are always easy,Wendy's parts are not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nattana 199 Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 Yeri's parts are always easy,Wendy's parts are not Rookie prechorus was pretty much similar in difficulty for both Wendy and Yeri parts... But I didn't know she was sick during promotions and that she had some additional throat problems. Thanks guys, I will definitely check some older stuff.

But Wendy had other parts aside the pre-chorus. Also, I wasn't just referring to ROOKIE but all RV songs. You really should check out their older staff. IMO, they're better than their newer songs. I'll recommend the entire THE RED album. Sent from my iPhone using OneHallyu mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WonderJoyous 10,634 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Yeri still have a long, and by long I mean reaaaaally long way to go to get on Wendy's level. Thing is that Wendy had a flu during Rookie promotions, and it was recently revealed by SM's vocal trainer that she also suffers from vocal nodules. She is actually considered the best female vocalist of the new generation, I think you should look for more stuff OP, not just Rookie performances.

sonseungwhipped 313 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I wish you would have checked out all of their discography before making a conclusion like that, then you would have known what the long-time fans meant by Wendy being the vocal goddess that she is, and Yeri's improving vocals.

blue7kaoru 17,423 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 You're only trying to get Yeri hate by using Wendy stop !! Wendy had a flu in the rookie promotions, plus the song dorsn't really fit her vocal tone so she has to try harder. Just the other she sang a cover and she sounded great.

Chae Is Bae 1,113 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Lmao you can't really judge people's full vocals from their videos of singing while dancing. A user above posted some videos of Wendy singing while staying still and you'll see how good she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♡ Serenity ♡ 15 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I believe Yeri has improved according with what I've seen at the moment, but Wendy is in another whole level like, seriously, you should check their other songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tippy 579 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 while Wendy sounded, well, really bad on pretty much every occasion...
