Ashlee is the female, modern version of Bob Dylan. Specifically, two albums are a lot alike, Autobiography and Bringing It All Back Home

1. unique voice that is widely considered "can't sing"
2. folk elements
3. sounds like grass. Maybe the guitar styles are similar.

Ashlee Simpson sounds pop, not country.

I have never listened to Ashlee Simpson, but for some reason I highly doubt she is similar at all to Bob Dylan.

She is pop and Bob Dylan was very easily recognizable as a folk musician. Later in his career he got more rock n roll and poppy with some of his songs, which people got mad at him for, but he was very much folk.

Plus I can easily say if I put on Bob Dylan people generally cringe, but Ashlee Simpson has pop songs that have been on the radio.

Aw, come on she's not that bad  

I've listened to Bob Sylan and I loved Autobiography so if both albums are almost alike I would love to try him out

Why are you talking in the past tense?

...you did not just compare some washout to one of the greatest musicians of all time.

First, there is a difference between not having a fantastic voice and having no talent.  When Ashlee debuted, people thought (and still thinks) that she has no talent.  That was never said about Dylan.

Yeah, when Dylan first came out, people didn't think that he had the greatest voice, but spoke for generations with his lyrics.  He is an icon.  Where is Ashlee's "Desolation Row," "The Times Are A-Changin'" or "Shelter from the Storm?"

And no, she isn't folk.  She's a no talent popstar.

Yeah, he's not that great. He's more known for his lyrics, and I've never found them particularly great.
