I love Toni Braxton

Contra Alto, Has been known to hit A2 and go as high as B5 and C6. Contra-voice types do better in groups than Solo-Singing. Their purpose is to blend between voices and even apply counterpoint (Which is where the Contra part comes from)

"Against" in this case means "point to point" counter. Example would be that you sing in the middle of my range, and I get to choose if I am going to form the line above you or below you. Together it forms two different melodies that combines work out in the same song.

Example of this in Piano/Keyboard music.

what are you talking about Keilyn

Braxton's Vocal Range and Voice Type.

Aside from the "basic voices" there are also "voice types" which are special and rare. Braxton's Voice type is actually uncommon, but has several uses. The letters + numbers together point to pitch and range.

Not to be a dick, but is going to be one of those internet hot topic things that everyone claims to take seriously, but then after a month or a couple of weeks we all jump on to the next thing?

Like a few weeks ago it was all "STOP SOPA!"

and how long have people been talking about Japan's earthquake?

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO "BP"?!

I'm convinced that when the media latches onto something, it's to draw attention from something terribly wrong that the government (and media) want under the rug. Whitney Houston's death caused such an uproar that I'm positive we lost another basic right or something.
