Janet is a good singer, she is not a belter but she can sing in tune across a wide vocal range (she doesn't use it a lot, but she does have 3 octaves), volume is not all, I much prefer a well controlled IN TUNE voice than a big off key uncontrolled voice.

Anyway, Shanice is talented, I like her, but she is far from being on the vocal level of Whitney/Mariah in their prime, starting for the fact Shanice would sometimes get this strained choked on her upper belting as opposed to the open throated sound of Whitney/Mariah (which is very strange because Shanice got extensive voice lessons with Seth Riggs) and also Shanice has some intonation issues sometimes.
