vocalist 

One who sings without rest... Who relates all things to music, and hates those who call themselves "singers," One who makes up harmonies to songs on the radio that no one else can sing, and at parties, drinks only a specific amount from their drink in order to achieve a certain pitch when one blows across the top (generally tuning to others in attendance.) And finally, one who doesnt need a mic!

That singer could never be a vocalist!

Vocalist 

The voice in a band. As long as they are still providing vocals for a band it doesnt matter how well they are or how bad they suck they are still considered as such, as long as they haven't been kicked out. Vocalists tend to steal the spotlight from other important members of the band such as the drummer or bassist. Most people usually pay more attention to the vocalist and guitar and disreguard the drummer and bassist even though without them, that band you love so much would sound like shit.

dude 1: Goddamn this guy cant sing/scream for shit!
dude 2: Can you believe he's considered a vocalist?
dude 2: ... Least the drums and bass are good!

Vocalist 

1. A Singer
2. The person who is on the receiving end of tortures employed by vocal coaches. Often, singers are required to sing laying on their backs while being jabbed in the diaphragm with large pieces of metal or are punched ruthlessly in the gut when a forceful tone is desired.
3. Sopranos think they are the greatest gift to mankind...little do they know, the alto part is really where it's at.

i.e. Hey, Let's find a vocalist to torture, but please...not a soprano, they are so bitchy.

Vocalist Peacocking

When a singer worries more about their appearance and randomly throws their voice around with no purpose to show off. They worry less about how well their songs, even lyrics are written. A lot of time the music is simple, but they're extra.

Beyoncé sits on the edge of the stage Vocalist Peacocking, holding her "high notes" randomly to spice up the crowd, but her music lacks depth in lyrics, repetitive, and lack well written-in instruments that actually go somewhere instead of holding the same beat. Her outfit is sparkly and her voice is doing stuff though.

Vocalist Peacocking

To focus more on the appearance than the depth. Music is repetitive, lacks true feeling within the lyrics.

Their outfits are incredibly showy and especially eccentric. They throw their voice and hold notes for no reason as the crowd cheers like it's an amazing feat.

Look at Beyoncé Vocalist Peacocking on the edge of the stage in her sparkly blue dress and yelling at people.

hellistic vocalist 

A scary ass, made up type of noise-music first appearing on the "X Factor" by a crazy chick that roared and shrieked.

Ariel: "I'm a hellistic vocalist. You're stupid!"

Kim Jongdae, better known as Chen of EXO. Stable vocals, high notes, falsetto, emotion, and much more. Incredibly wide ranged.
