Extinction symptoms appearing upon this planet are many if one knows what to look for and where to look. Understanding extinction here brings symptoms in focus. My sense of the matter paints a dire situation even worse than current events reveal. Suspicions and/or senses have rarely been wrong since turbo-charged enlightenment I call Cosmic Transference'
Well, for some time now I have suspected that extinction shows up as symptom here in music we hear. I simply have not wished to look into the matter but curiosity often wins in this household. Perhaps spirits work their magic upon the Poet to write on this issue. As my main message on extinction and the major symptom is a highly delicate issue, it behooves the messenger to give a public hammered by politically-correct ideology less complex symptoms to digest first as perhaps an intellectual appetizer. Maybe then the main course will be a little easier to swallow.
Regarding male singers in the music industry today, there seems to be heard on the radio airwaves more men singing in falsetto voices as compared to... 50 years ago. Why?
Following records are from solo or duo acts only. Two Rappers were removed from the current list for what I believe are obvious reasons. If such reasons are not obvious, I suspect a blog will come sooner or later on Rappers and Professional Athletes explaining the matter.

There you have it, my friends. Your current top male vocalists at the time of this writing in America feature no baritones. Chew on that bit of knowledge and ask yourself a few questions. Awareness is much better when you figure things out for yourself. I am here to give folks needing it a little push.
