I know there's a few exceptions to this, like Dizzee Rascal and The Arctic Monkeys that I can name off the top of my head, but others like The Beatles and Leona Lewis all seem to follow the above logic.

I'd love to hear your guys' thoughts on this.
Cause in Western music we don't really pronounce the R when we sing or we pronounce it softer than when we would if we were talking.
