My boyfriend is the leader of the band which I sang in, but recently he removed me from the position of vocalist, because from a certain moment my diction became very bad and I can't pronounce all words properly. I think he is wrong and diction is not the main thing. What do you think? It's his idea to create a poll. He said that if the result was in my favour, he would consider it.

Many singers have some kind of problems with pronunciation or other issues it’s often not an issue as it becomes part of the way they are unique.
The ones that should stop are the tone deaf ones that think they can sing and sound like a bag of cats screaming
