He's insane.

If you listen to the background he’s doing the dum dum with Chanyeol in the Acapella

Yeah I think he did it live a couple of times

Too bad his tone is not all that.

@@Ri57490 there's no place for a hater here. Get out of here.

They're not. Super Junior K.R.Y are. Kyuhyun and Ryeowook are tier A vocalists and Yesung is in tier B. EXO main vocals are all in tier B.

@@mathhenri4608 girl lol

@@nat.mp3 *boy*

​​@@mathhenri4608Yesung regressed almost to hell lol, sure Kyuhyun is the best idol vocalist ever and Ryeowook is also incredible but Chen is just behind Ryeowook and BaekSoo both clear Yesung

@@Oliver-uz1fs Chen is below Ryeowook and overall Super Junior wins. Kyuhyun Ryeowook Chen D.O/ Baekhyun Yesung Super Junior have the 2 best male vocalists of Kpop. Their vocal line is stronger.

That’s because kpop groups nowadays sound even worse

​@@marley3690*sound waaaay worse

​@@marley3690i see you choose to speak facts🙇‍♀️

For me, they tie with Super Junior K.R.Y (of course another one from SM) in terms of vocal capabilities but CBX is superior in terms of song variety.

for me sj kry has better technical wise than chenbaeksoo

That’s what I thought too a few years ago, but many EXO-Ls recommended me to stan NCT. If I were you, I would start stanning them, a lot of them are actually great vocalists, not just any other vocalists but each of them have distinct tones just like how ChenBaekSoo.

@@fearmenot7595 nct is my 2nd fav group after exo 😭 nct releases great unique songs and got both wonderful vocalists as well as rappers. You're right my fellow solo levelling reader everyone should start listening to their music because it's worth.

I was never a fan of kpop, I tried to watch many popular groups that my friends recommended but couldn't get through those music that's when I accidentally came across Exo and their voices really made an impact on me. I came to enjoy kpop music and other kpop groups after that but nothing ever impressed me as much as Exo for their content and voice techniques.

My bias is D.O but I have always appreciated Chen's strengths. I enjoy Chen's lower register but I also noticed that he doesn't get a chance to use it much. When singing together; •D.O & Chen - Chen does higher register •Baek & Chen- Both may use higher register but Chen will do the highest notes. He may be most likely able to use the lower register in his solos.

Normally the lower stuff gets taken by the baritones, which is fair enough. In his solo stuff tho, especially dear my dear, he really shows off his lower register

@@_dont_mind_me nah, Baek and Soo aren't baritones, but they sing low notes in exo songs way more often than Jongdae. Even in recent years SM only started to give him a tiny bit of low notes, but imo it is still not enough

@@RoxysKiss I meant Chanyeol, Sehun and Kai, they take the really low stuff and do all the lower harmonies typically. Although you’re right in the duos and trios it’s usually BaekSoo who are given the lower stuff

I think he uses his lower register in jekyll

Baekhyun adlibs are just full of soul

He surely is the most agile idol vocalist.

Is there anyone between him and baekhyun? Maybe Taeil?

@@david20222Taeil is not agile if I’m not mistaken. I’ve asked about this somewhere but in terms of agility Kyungsoo>> Baekhyun> Taeil since Kyungsoo is agile, Baekhyun is semi agile

@@asyrafdimyati2529 I see. I'm not technical so I'm basing it on my own observation and could be wrong. How about Dean?

@@david20222 i’m not sure since I do not know that much

They are a perfect vocal trio really.❤

True. Chen is most probably the best tenor for lower register & Kyungsoo is the most agile idol vocalist.

​@@averyatwell95u're correct

I agree. Kyungsoo can be a vocal monster if he wanted to

Agree. If kyungsoo wants developping his skills he could it easily because he is always effortless. He just prefers enjoying songs than making performances.

I agree with you. I think D.O. he can pull the strings off if he wanted to. He is just so effortless every time he sing. I've watched multiple vocal reactors and most of them were so amazed with his voice.

I strongly disagree with those that say D.O. second guesses himself. Watch any of the exoplanet concerts and specifically watch them perform the same song in different venues - he is actually the one who is most sure of his voice because during live performances he is constantly switching up his ad libs and runs. He is always giving us something new and different from studio version, something interesting to look forward to. An artist can only do that if they are confident in their ability and if they have great musicality. To those who say D.O. can “push more” or “ show off more,” it’s not because he is unsure, to me it is a deliberate choice. You can ruin the vibe of a song and make it sound crowded and unpleasant if you have too many crazy belting, adlibbing and riffing done on top of each other. They’re not contestants on a singing show - they are artists choosing to sing in a certain way to play pff of each other and to play off the vibe of the song and the performance as a whole. The fact that D.O. doesnt go crazy on every single line even though we know he can is a deliberate artistic choice. He can make even the “unexciting“ parts of the song sound absolutely beautiful and soft, the amount of control he has is insane. And even just a beautiful little adlib in any bridge section from him adds so much flavor to the whole song. You cant have three singers popping off all at the same time, thats not what makes a good song and they all understand that. You can see from the recently released Cream Soda Recording Behind the Scenes just how much power and volume D.O. has in comparison to everybody else, and just how full and beautiful he sings the Cream Soda line, much cleaner and fuller sounding than Chen and Baekhyun in my opinion. He was even casually humming Baek’s adlib part during the recording and it sounded so freaking agile and easy and natural compared to how Baek sang it. I love Baekhyun and Chen, too I hate when people say things like this about D.O. Just because he doesnt pop off on the vocals all the time does not mean he is unsure or lazy or doesnt try harder. It means this is how he thinks he will sound best for the song, that is his art.

@@M-de-Vale as someone who is D.O biased, I get what you're saying, but I have noticed that in some of his recent solo performances, he doesn't seem as confident. Kyungsoo's voice is crazy agile and his belting is really good, but I feel like he holds back. That's just my opinion, it's not wrong and it isn't coming from a place of negativity. You can have a favorite and still critique them.

i totally agree with this.

Baekhyun is versatile its true but if you are talking about versatility in genre CHEN is not afraid at all he has already explored RnB,ballad ,pop(with many sub genre),jazz,blue,hipop, rock, edm,funk,folk) he may explore even more in future .

Right? Their harmonizations are so good. ✨

I'm so excited for their killing voice live ommmmmg they'll harmonize a lot

I’m so glad that this video exists!!

Omg you are so right 😊they are amazing when it comes to singing together

So true esp when Chanyeol sings with his low slightly raspy voice it blends to perfection

Me too ❤❤❤❤

same !!!

Same💗

@@lemonssssssss4244 yes i understand you.

Same ❤️❤️❤️

I need to agree to this. D.O's voice is just so amazing. Been so obsessed with his voice and everything he does since 2013. I don't think someone can wreck that. Tho, Chen and baekhyun are also great but D.O's voice is 🤌 His voice is a legend. There's only few in the music industry who can sing like him. That is for me, tho. He is and will forever be my Ult Bias ❤️❤️❤️

his parts have been covered by other members in his absence and it has been done well. the only vocal in the group that is difficult to cover is chen

"Did you know that there was an article trending on Korean media since last week about EXO's vocals after Baek performed 'Paranoia'? Netizens were saying that EXO shouldn't always perform live as it may harm their voices, or it may reflect poorly on other artists because their favorites cannot sing correctly. So, they were harassing EXO. Shameless fools!"

@@JK-md2rp I heard that news, Knetz said that EXO should not always live singing. Even some comment said "EXO made my Oppa looks bad" Haishh... lol

@@RalyaRhea008 "I know, right? What gives someone the right to tell a talented singer not to showcase their abilities? EXO has put in years of hard work, and they find happiness in singing because they love it, unlike others who are motivated by the desire for popularity and not the joy of singing."

Nah. Exo especially known for their vocal. And of course new 4th gen fan wouldn't bring out Exo as they are new and Exo is 3rd gen. Just like how 3rd gen fan wouldn't bring out Super Junior when talking about vocal. Seriously tho, Super Junior have the best kpop vocalist objectively yet they're not known for vocal.

all of them are treasures ❤

@@simageneration4030 for sure!!! I was just talking about main vocalists here

He belts more during their rookie days hehe

EXO-L forever. ❤

idem ♥

Бэкхён- маленькое сокровище! Его удивительный вокал ,завораживает.Чем то похож на вокал Гахо( Gaho). Вэкхён,очень талантливый пвренёк! Он снимался в дораме " Алые сердца Корё" , играл одного из принцев.

Right!!! I haven’t been a fan THAT long 😭 about 5 years now (wow I didn’t even know that long). Baekhyun is my ultimate bias in kpop and music in general no matter the language for the same reason. His emotions feel amazing to me, but in this video with the three of them, and the whole group in general, they’re amazing. If someone told me to pick my favorite I’d obviously say Baekhyun but if someone told me to pick the best vocalist I’d start sweating bullets (based on the fact that I can tell who can sing and who can’t not actual technique). The entire group has amazing singers. On the opposite end Chanyeol is another favorite of mine. Xiumin and Suho can sing very well, Kai has such a calming voice and so does sehun. They all sing so well. I love how this video doesn’t bash any of them and actually shows their strong suits and shows that they are very strong vocalists overall. I can’t tell techniques and correct vocab but I do get what he means with their voices and I love this video

He is not as stable as Baek and Kyungsoo although his techniques are better and range is wider

@@ineeddks agreed but he is still the best

@@ineeddks first of all stability is not a measure for vocals. Next, watch EXO live stages. He is just as stable as BaekSoo if not more.

@@Egret1248 stability is not a measure of vocals? Who sustain air better or not is not a measure? okay I’m 11yrs in this fandom probably there’s no live stage that I haven’t watched but I respect what you think about their vocals.

@@ineeddks stability while dancing only shows stamina. That's why professionals mostly use live singing clips where they're not dancing to analyse vocal techniques. I too have watched all their live stages & Chen is as stable as Baekhyun & Kyungsoo. But congrats you've been with EXO from the start. Keep supporting them.

His Growl part is what made me EXO-L

Great idea to rank the others, too. Suho is sensational, with a stable, strong vocal. And Xiumin always catches me by surprise when he comes in with this most angelic tone.

as a hard baekhyun bias ofc jongdae is the best. Not just in exo he fr the best vocalist in kpop

💯

YEEEEEEESSSSS

Our angel KING Jongdae 😇🤗

Ofc it's gonna be different bcus he's one of the main vocal, he has the most lines to sing with the other two. Just like how it sounds different with Obsession album bcus Ksoo was not there.

​@@resurgingflameno, u dont get it

@@CHENBAEKXI21 I completely get it. People are just biased, that's all.

Personally I believe any album without one of these 3 is totally going to sound different. Their different strengths give something special to each of their songs

​@@resurgingflameobsession sounded perfectly fine without kyungsoo. chens vocals are what sets exo apart sonically

Yes! Tone should be a category too! D.O. Is my bias but vocally he and Chen are both at the top for me.

@@annie.hi. tone is very subjective tho. that’s the beauty of the exo main vocalists tho, they have a variety of tones

​@@annie.hi.I say Chen is at top but D.O and baek are tied at 2nd

@@aayushgupta1265 yeah I agree if we are talking technical skill, but D.O. Is up there with Chen when it comes to my personal preference and that’s mostly because of his tone and agility. I do like Chen’s tone too. Sometimes I feel like nobody can portray emotion in their voice as well as Chen

@@kledi3817 yes agreed! They are all incredible vocalists on their own but when together they are like no other boy group that ever existed

Same but what’s the song Baekhyun sings with Exo played at 2:24

Ayo another D.O. biased here! Also you summed up their strongest points very accurately😌

I love D.O's run so much especially his one in blackpearl is such a pleasure to my ears

Shouldn't it be Baekhyun for range & Chen for power though? Since Chen is a much superior belter & Baekhyun easily flips between his registers?

@@averyatwell95 Good point, however, in my opinion, Chen has the most consistent range especially when singing the high notes live. Baekhyun does have the range however it is less consistent compared to Chen however his vocal color is brighter, heavier and stronger in my opinion.

​@@averyatwell95 agree with op & you too. But them 3 are pretty well rounded vocalists even with their own little weak areas which they always work on to improve. They are a true vocal powerhouse trio!

I’d also say listen to his OSTs, I’m a Jongdae bias but Baekhyun’s works are giving Chen a run for his money.

@@awaywiththefaeries9464 should never compare EXO with EXO. They are one.

Me too. Also what is the song at 2:24

@@Egret1248hi can u please tell me the name of the song at 2:24

KRY is excellent, but I still prefer EXO as a group. The members of KRY each have some amazing skills. I’ve seen rankings where they were considered the best. But over EXO? IDK. That’s a tough call.

@@judycasley108 yess me too But i love baekhyun and yesung voice Let me add jaehyun and heechan from nct Those four is my fave voice in K-Pop And yess i'm with you, I love EXO as a group more than other groups

idk he sounds a lot like Zayn Malik

Same! He doesn’t need to belt high notes to catch your attention, his velvety smooth voice does it all. I noticed in his earlier days he was given high notes and killing lines most of the time like Baek and Jongdae but now seems like Kyungsoo prefers to sing in his most comfortable range and it’s still as good. So excited for DKS2!!

Same. Idk how you choose a bias when they're all so good.

That's the beauty of EXO. This is why I always suggest fans not to fight over their vocal abilities, because these guys complete each other.
