There is the belief, particularly among the artists, that we flamenco critics want to impose by force how people should sing, and that\u2019s not true. Not at least as far as I\u2019m concerned. I\u2019ve said this many times and I don\u2019t mind saying it once again: I demand respect for what has been done, particularly if it\u2019s good, and then each cantaor<\/em> or cantaora<\/em> can express themselves as the feel like. It greatly annoys me that, when they get started as cantaores<\/em>, they stick by the rules and standards to become popular with the aficionados and to get hired by pe\u00f1as<\/em> and by the town\u2019s summer festivals, and then they start singing popular flamenco-ish songs to earn more money, singing boleros and ballads and forgetting all about traditional flamenco and even trashing it, like Roc\u00edo M\u00e1rquez<\/strong>\u00a0did with\u00a0Ni\u00f1o de Marchena<\/strong>, in her album El Ni\u00f1o<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t stop voicing my opinion about this artist from Huelva, because that would mean giving up my right to voice my opinion about whatever I feel like. Personally, I\u2019m tired of supporting good performers of cante<\/em> who then decide to earn more money singing pop songs. Not only that, then they rant about how flamenco critics are backward Talibans or male chauvinists. So, from now on, considering how things are, anyone looking for support and praise will have to work harder to earn it, because I\u2019m tired of helping young artists who shun serious cante <\/em>as soon as they can to make unbearable albums who are then forgotten in a few days.<\/p>\n

Cante<\/em> is a gift, although skill is also involved. I mean to say it\u2019s a grace that some people are born with: a particular voice, a unique sound\u2026 Then techniques are learned, and knowledge is acquired. Yet, if someone doesn\u2019t have that innate ability, it\u2019s hard to become a good cantaor<\/em> or cantaora<\/em>, and if they manage to succeed in cante<\/em>, that cold, learned technique will stand out. Without emotion, without communication with the audience, without goosebumps, there is no flamenco. And if a sole\u00e1 <\/em>is sung without sticking to the rules and standards, that\u2019s not flamenco either. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s so hard to understand. There is no doubt that Estrella Morente<\/strong>\u00a0is a good artist and a good singer. Yet, besides her first album, produced by her father, what else has she done? So, do we have to keep saying how good she is, whatever she does, even if she decides to become a singer of coplas<\/em>?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been greatly disappointed by Roc\u00edo M\u00e1rquez, an artist with whom I fell in love with when she won the La Uni\u00f3n L\u00e1mpara Minera<\/strong>\u00a0award in 2008. I was part of the jury and I had to make an effort to convince some of the other members that she deserved the award. I did this because she sang wonderfully, and I saw her potential. I didn\u2019t get that wrong, did I? Now I regret having supported her because, after all, she has moved over to a musical world I have no interest in, although it gives her money and awards. As cantaora<\/em> she\u2019s second-rate, and as a singer, frankly, there are better ones, although this is a matter of personal tastes. Thus, she\u2019s an artist for whom I have no interest in, from a flamenco perspective. Yet, if I\u2019m harsh with her, is not because how she sings now, but for the things she says whenever she\u2019s interviewed. That is, every day. I\u2019ve never seen a flamenco artist who says more nonsense than she does, frankly.<\/p>\n

The last one was claiming that she is a cantaora<\/em> with good judgement because she studied in a university, which is an offense to so many cantaoras<\/em> who didn\u2019t have the opportunity to study or go to any university, from Ni\u00f1a de los Peines<\/strong>\u00a0to Mari Pe\u00f1a<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0La Macanita<\/strong>. Thus, I don\u2019t have the slightest interest in Roc\u00edo M\u00e1rquez and I\u2019ll stop writing about her until the day she records an album with pellizco<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Not at least as far as I\u2019m concerned. I\u2019ve said this many times and I don\u2019t mind saying it once again: I demand respect for what has been done, particularly if it\u2019s good, and then each cantaor or cantaora can express themselves as the feel like. It greatly annoys me that, when they get started as cantaores, they stick by the rules and standards to become popular with the aficionados and to get hired by pe\u00f1as and by the town\u2019s summer festivals, and then they start singing popular flamenco-ish songs to earn more money, singing boleros and ballads and forgetting all about traditional flamenco and even trashing it, like Roc\u00edo M\u00e1rquez did with Ni\u00f1o de Marchena, in her album El Ni\u00f1o.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/en\/bordonazo-new\/theyll-have-to-earn-it\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/en\/bordonazo-new\/theyll-have-to-earn-it\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/en\/bordonazo-new\/theyll-have-to-earn-it\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/cancion-espanola.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/cancion-espanola.jpg","width":1300,"height":800},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/en\/bordonazo-new\/theyll-have-to-earn-it\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Inicio","item":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/en\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"They\u2019ll have to earn it"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/#website","url":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/","name":"Archivo Expoflamenco","description":"Portal de arte flamenco: noticias, entrevistas, blogs, cr\u00edticas, investigaci\u00f3n","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/#organization","name":"Expoflamenco","url":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/www.expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/banner-cabecera-mobile.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/banner-cabecera-mobile.jpg","width":299,"height":75,"caption":"Expoflamenco"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ExpoFlamenco","https:\/\/x.com\/expoflamenco1","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/expoflamenco\/","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/expoflamenco"]},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/expoflamenco.com\/archivo\/#\/schema\/person\/608d65b2c159f7b5b632f1365c15030f","name":"Manuel Boh\u00f3rquez","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e4c8fcbcd4cb54196f6756c157a4aba7f9698d5a2261e73a15b5bf66f4495366?s=96&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e4c8fcbcd4cb54196f6756c157a4aba7f9698d5a2261e73a15b5bf66f4495366?s=96&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/e4c8fcbcd4cb54196f6756c157a4aba7f9698d5a2261e73a15b5bf66f4495366?s=96&r=g","caption":"Manuel Boh\u00f3rquez"},"description":"Arahal, Sevilla, 1958.
