I believe Mariah's breathiness is 100% a stylistic choice here because this is prime Mariah we are watching and she was fully capable of creating a clean, clear sound unlike later in her career when her voice became uncontrollably hoarse. I do understand your concern though because it's not the healthiest way to sing and she tended to add a tons of breathiness in most of her songs.
Part of it definitely isn't a choice. IF the nodules thing is true - it makes sense. She would need a bit more pressure to get better closure of the folds to produce less airy tone qualities - which is definitely easier with thicker folds. So most of her (softer) thin fold singing would be a bit breathy, wanted or not. I think she's making use of it by exaggerating though ...so that it sounds more like it's on purpose.
I just wanted to say you're one of the rare vocal coaches on RUclips who actually analyses videos and talks about techniques which really helpful for us instead of just watching and closing the videos. You're my favourite vocal teacher in here ♡
Sam's videos are like a nice lecture with your favourite professor, you can see they are totally passionate, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the subject and you can't help but be charmed by them it's really calming in a sense
She got screwed on the masked singer..she was the best singer should never been sent home. I was very disappointed. Btw, Kelly was the butterfly on season 2.
I really don't think you're picky. You do a great job at explaining how to make sounds and differentiate between stuff that comes from practice (thus not immediately possible), stuff that is unique to a person (thus unlikely to achieve), and stuff that is part of healthy singing or not. Like, i really don't sing and have very limited knowledge of music but I can tell that you are a great teacher because in spite of that, I can understand what you mean. Your explanations help people who start by imitating beyoncé or mariah and think they are untalented because they don't sound like them, when almost nobody does because they are goddesses. Great video as always Sam!
I just gotta say, when your “teachers expression” breaks into a huge smile...... I cant help but smile back. Thank you for keeping it light. I am glad you are well. Its fun to watch you enjoy performances and have fun.
Mariah was the most demanded female musician in the 90s, constantly singing live, doing notes/ belts the human voice shouldn't be doing and travelling around the world with below recommended amount of sleep, it was bound to have a toll on her voice.
False, she didn't sing live nor she was touring that much, from 91 to 93 she gave only 13 mini concerts, and she was always helped by a gospel choir but I think that producing albums every year is not good for a class act vocalist like her, but saying she was the most demanding is false, Whitney, worked more live
@@gloirechabu4053 did you just say Mariah didn't sing live..... oh Chile 😩 Whitney had 4 albums, 2 of them were semi albums, Mariah did 7 full albums. During first half the 90s Whitney was outselling Mariah, during the second half Mariah was outselling Whitney.
@@hughw2377 i said she was not singing live that much, she started lipsyncing after 96, she didn't toured much in the 90's so your statement is false. SHE WAS NOT THE MOST DEMANDED FEMALE ARTIST IN THE 90'S. Whitney toured more, and sung more than her during that period, celine too, was touring every year and had to support her European career as well. Edit :Whitney was also an actress and a film producer at that period, don't compare the incomparable please.
@@gloirechabu4053 just because Mariah didn't tour as much or sang live as much as Whitney doesn't mean Mariah was sitting at home doing nothing all day, being the most successful female of the 90s requires WORK AND EFFORT. Mariah is a singer, co-producer, actress and songwriter, so i can compare actually.
Agreed. But then I hear her speak and it sounds different. I usually hear singers sing the same way they speak. Not using this to bash her, she’s obviously a legend and one of my favorites.
I think her voice falls into breathiness because she doesn't have the proper closure and while she definitely can control the sound, it's probably the main reason (other than overworking) her voice is damaged.
Ah, Mariah in the first few years of her career - she sang the song 'Vanishing' in rehearsal that same day and actually significantly overcompressed her highest belts, so maybe it was going to the extremes for so long that wore her down?
During her music box/daydream era her higher belts were more resonant and less forced than her debut era. Either way someone singing in extreme ranges constantly will take a toll on any voice
Your nasality talk made me feel better about using it to find a lighter place in my voice (my voice is naturally weighty) and I do exactly what you said in the video :)
FINALLY Tamar THEE Braxton getting love by a reaction channel! She’s so underrated! (Also lol at him comparing her with Tamera! I wonder if he knows about the drama! 😂)
Amber kinda. Well what had happened was, Tamar and Tamera were co hosts on a talk show (The Real) with three other women for a few years. Then outta nowhere Tamar got fired. To this day nobody knows why, not even her. It seemed like all the hosts were close friends and it was pretty unanimous that Tamar was the most entertaining on the show. So for her to get fired out of the blue was really surprising for everyone. What made it worse was that they never addressed it on the show. And the only time since then that they mentioned her was when she was in the process of getting a divorce. SUPER shady! They later brought her up again after someone asked her about the incident. And they seemed sincere about the whole situation, but it later came out that one of the other hosts might have been instrumental in getting her fired (not Tamera). I should mention that there doesn’t seem to be any animosity between Tamar and Tamera directly. Tamera’s a sweetheart really. It was just ironic to me how out of everyone Sam decided to compare those two, considering their layered history. Also since Tamar is a professional singer while Tamera is an actress who happens to also sing beautifully. (I should also mention that I love them both, so no shade to either of them. I’m just telling the story)
Nodules dont mature they calcify. She could have kept her voice but she didnt want to get them taken out. She could regain 80% of her voice back if she were to do it now
@@Official.tadiwa I imagine the surgery may have gotten better to do so. It’s very risky, last I knew, and some singers lost their highs and had to relearn to sing entirely.
You had me at "flippy place" and kept me going through "high voiced people". I freaking love you, still, after all this time. Thanks for still making these videos, I learn so much about myself and how to improve my own singing MENTALITY every single time. ❤️
I would really be interested in your reacting to Mariah's really recent "at home" vocals. She seems as though she is in a much healthier place vocally.
I disagree on her sounding healthier. She sounds more rested and relaxed so overall a little better than in "recent" live performances but those chords definitely aren't healthy. It's her voice though...she obviously doesn't want to intervene with whatever has happened with them.
It's actually really nice to hear all these pop singers without the boatloads of auto tune modern producers seem to insist on piling onto their recordings. Let the singers sing, leave the computers out of it...
I would really like to see your thoughts on Florence and the machine! Perhaps a video of her best live vocals or something? Or just any live performance to be honest
whenever you briefly mention the differences between classical and modern sound production, I really wish you would react to classical singers too ... *nudge, nudge* :)
@@SamJohnsonVoice I just realized you might have to turn off comments for these reactions, considering how ... erm ... "passionate" some fans of singer A might react should you dare to say something nice about singer B ... :/ however, I do have a list of suitable clips ready (for a couple of years by now) should you ever be interested :D
I watch your videos frequently and am dying to learn to sing better. But my neighbors bang on the walls, and my cat has a heart attack every time I try singing. 🤣
@Nic Same. Aside from wanting to sing better, I also used to play the guitar. But living in an apartment makes it impossible to do any kind of music without disturbing someone. Lol.
Practice what you can with a soft voice, other than that, a lot.Hum a lot of your practice. Do more breathing exercises with the diaphragm. You can also stuff your room with lots and lots of things to absorb the sound and/or stuff the bottom of your door with things. Go to a corner of your wall furthest from the door and sing into that corner , So that the corner will absorb the sound and bounce off the sound into your ear so that you can hear yourself. Other than that, take walks and practice singing/talking with an expanded rib cage, Contract the rib cage as you exhale/make sound [talk or sing]so you can practice movement with sustaining your breath support.
i live in a flat too and it can be hard , but maybe tell them you'll practise only at certain times of the day which is reasonable cause they don't get to decide whether you're a musician or not!
@@SamJohnsonVoice I think that one particular video is cursed ! There are lots of channels reacting to her without their videos getting copyrighted and it would be really dope if you gave it another try. Pelase?
It’s my dream for you to see “Vanishing Rehearsal” it’s arguably the greatest, hardest vocal live performance of Mariah Carey. I hope you consider it 🥺💜
She strained out like all the F5s in that performance. It'd be cool if he reacted to one of her recent performances (like Make It Happen) to give a bit of an analysis on her current voice.
Watching you talk about Mariah makes me wanna see you react to the Schitt's Creek cast recent cover of her song Hero lol. (It's a youtube original video for the grad class of 2020 and the teachers.) One of the lead actors, Noah Reid also sang a bit of Always Be My Baby a capella in the show's final episode. There's also an acoustic cover by him as well as a short a capella cover from other castmates of Tina Turner's the Best - both are lovely. You can find live performances of the acoustic version, sometimes featuring Sarah Levy, also one of his SC costars, on youtube.
@@SamJohnsonVoice Haha just kidding, i love your videos! Any chance you will do a Nothing but Thieves reaction again? For example Particles in solitude verson? :) :)
Beyoncé has always been a phenomenal vocal producer. She vocal produced all of the Destiny's Child albums and does the same for all of her music, even when people send her reference tracks or fully done songs. She still does it HER way.

Mariah carey had nodules before she was famous. Her voice never changed just matured and her nodules matured with it.
Nodules start as a soft tissue, they can heal (or be surgically removed) or they can get bigger and harder, which is likely what happened to Mariah.
Maturation = change.
