Message: [QUOTE="Nehanda, post: 29468, member: 2262"] Famous personality Hillary Makaya told singer Oriyano he needed to stop leaning on Jah Prayzah's sound. She pointed out that Oriyano should express himself instead of being a copycat. Oriyano first grabbed attention because he could mimic Jah Prayzah's voice perfectly, which made him pretty popular fast. He rode that wave of fame to release some original tracks later on. Many fans agree with Hillary that Oriyano should break away from just sounding like someone else. Critics say he relies way more than necessary on copying Jah Prayzah's unique vocal style. They want him to find his voice as an artist rather than staying as a tribute act forever. The public seems ready for Oriyano to develop something fresh that comes from his true self. [/QUOTE]
