American Idol Fans Are Comparing Him To Country Singers

American Idol fans are not seeing the difference between what Canaan is doing and what the country singers on the show do.

I know some people are tired of Canaan only singing gospel or religious music and are making arguments against him. But couldn’t the same arguments be applied to a country singer that is only going to be singing country music all season long? Why does Canaan get punished for it but not a country singer? Is it being country music is a more popular genre, so it gets excused?

However, this is not the issue. The issue is that he does not do anything different, and his performances sound the same.

It’s bc every single song he sings he makes it stylistically the same. He’s stuck in a box and they want him to think outside of it. It’s not necessarily that it’s only gospel, it’s the way he’s singing it. He makes every single song he sings sound the exact same. It’s like okay we get it you can sing like that, but what ELSE can you do?
