Really interesting piece. Growing up with the internet gave me an American accent (British) as a singer. As soon as I reconnected with older music, I unlearned that fake accent, although I had no idea I was even doing it. Now I get flack for it online, and I’ve seen many younger British artists say they’d never sing in their own accent. A bit off-topic but I thought it would be of interest!
