{Best Distorted/Harsh/Heavy Singing}
THIS CLIP (0:39 - 1:57, skipping 1:09 to 1:25). I decided to shake it up a bit with some lower heavy singing - the first few seconds aren't super growl-y just to juxtapose her heavier singing later on, and the clip ends with a C3 which isn't harsh necessarily but still sounds heavy in how she's affecting her voice.

{Best Emotional Singing}
THIS CLIP (0:09 - 1:09). It's big and '80s, but there's a huge variety of dynamics going on and Cher has that emotional tone to her voice and some slight breaks which signifies emotion to me

Best Distorted/Heavy Singing: Corn on tha Cobb. Timestamp to 2:22. Powerful G4s and B4s throughout. Fits the category idk. Started out with the softer into to juxtapose the heavy bits.



Best Emo Vois: Tha Pain. The whole damn thing... again. Look, I really hate this song. But goddamn does T Pain deliver. If I lose to Cher I'm killing myself.
