If It's your passion and you want to do it for the rest of your life, why would comments stop you from doing that?

But Stacie Orrico was my childhood hero. I was about 12 when I found her music. She is a contemporary Christian artist, and I can honestly tell you that I don't think I'd have a soulful voice if I didn't listen to Stacie. I wanted to sound just like her growing up, and to this day I STILL think I sound a little bit like her. But she is AMAZING!

But I also think it's about a person's personality that draws people in, too, not just their singing.

Skrillex. The man is a genius and paved a new way for music and it's very inspiring.

If you can't find what's unique, people aren't going to listen.

I only wish to climb even higher during the rest of my career bc with the power of Team Grimmie, I won't stop.

If you are posting your music on YouTube, maybe start with a popular cover done in a unique way.
