I just finished the base for her lows! Please watch!! I know I am missing a lot of good clips, so if you see any that are missing, feel free to comment them! Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/dviKQ1InKjw/видео.html My insta is @camden.epperson if you would like to talk about how you could help with a CVSS video or just to talk!
In all honesty I think she can belt a C6 by the amount of ease she has on her Bb's. She probably hasn't mastered the note though. So, she probably keeps it saved for home. 😅😅
@Illuminate Light yeah for sure. so think of the voice as its own body. yes, im asking you to visualize the voice (all parts that make or help to make sound: larynx or voice box, lungs, vocal cords) as this vessel that changes the color of sounds that descend or ascend throughout the body. that being said, let's give each section that helps to define voice its own color. for instance, head (cranium) section is colored blue. chest section is colored red. the midway point, let's call it the "chead" section is colored yellow. each color, each section comes with a not so visual sound color. the head (blue) section has a hollow, more haunting, or empty sound. the chest (red) section has a more full and forward sound. and the midway (yellow) section has qualities/characteristics of both. as the voice lives in the chest (red) area, it has lower, fuller, darker sounds. as one would expect, the head (blue) section would have the complete opposite: higher, brighter, thinner sounds. and that leaves the midway (yellow) section to have a mixture of characteristics from both the blue and the red section since it sits right in the middle acting as a passageway from one point to the other. you say, "there's no such thing as chesty or heady," in your claim above, which is false when talking in terms of vocal color, which is what the person who initiated this comment section thread was trying to say. to repeat, not saying that you believe this, but to anyone else who might or who skims this and think that we're trying to bash Ariana, we're not. its a simple vocal analysis. head voice is the second highest register that the human voice can make. whistle register is the highest, though it is separate from the voice in a sense. all "high" notes produced by any human are in some relation to the head voice register. as all low or chestier notes are related to chest/modal voice. @Clint Easton claims that if Ariana were to use more of a headier mix on notes passed G#5, she'd have easier access and perhaps would even obtain the note B5 or notes higher: 6th octave notes. naturally, 6th octave notes live in the head voice or whistle register, which in this case, we are sticking with head voice terminology. well, think of it. since 6th octave notes' home is the head voice, wouldn't it make sense that in order to BELT higher and easier, the notes would have to take on some of these head voice qualities? which in turn makes them sound heady? that's where the terms heady and chesty originate from. as notes move higher, they take on more head (blue) qualities and as they move lower they take on more chest (red) qualities. this is very true, however, every singer is different. some don't like for their belting notes to sound heady, as it makes them sound light and without power (Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, Demi Lovato), while others work for this lighter take (Amber Riley, Ariana Grande), and others work for more of a middle, like Tori Kelly or JoJo (which is what Ariana is trying to do nowadays when compared to her earlier years, look at Pink Champagne in 2011-2012 versus her more recent performances of the song). also, sometimes, whether a singer sounds more headier or chestier in their belting range is out of their control - puberty, birth, maturation, etc. @Illuminate Light you say the existence of chesty or heady terminology, functions "contradicts how the voice works" when that is the complete opposite. it makes absolutely no sense for you to make a claim like that and further proves your lack of knowledge in regards to the voice and its function when singing. this is not me belittling you or trying to embarrass you. i simply hope that through this lengthy explanation that you understand a little bit more about the voice, and in return, Ms. Grande and other celebrity singers.
@Stargate Messiah This video shows her consistency up to G5/G#5. If you can't hear that then that's on you. Stop repeating that same crap. The anatomy of her voice allows her as a soprano to have comfortability high. That's a scientific fact.
It’s very exhausting seeing people always saying Ariana doesn’t support her notes. I feel like if she’s that consistent and her voice obviously isn’t failing her shes singing with the right technique. She’s so beautiful ❤️
Amore Arusko She supports her voice and her notes like 90% of her concerts. She does concerts while fatigued and sick. So if her voice can last her 100+ concerts and the 200+ tour she did on Broadway when she was a teenager and can still sing to this day proves she is supporting her notes and her voice perfectly fine.
Exactly! If she had poor or subpar technique, her voice would wear off very quickly and she wouldn't be able to do the crazy touring she does. Not to mention, she was SICK for SEVERAL dates of her several tours and maintained access to 90% of her full vocal range. I don’t think people get how hard is is to sing with most of your voice intact while sick with a cold or any illness that involves lots of coughing, sneezing, and hoarseness. Viral illnesses like the flu or common colds are considered DEATH to the voice for most singers. Many of the examples of grounded and/or ringing notes here were sung while she was SICK. And aside from one vocal injury in 2013 caused by screaming too much with not enough rest (Ariana’s own words) she has not had a single vocal issue requiring medical attention due to singing or touring. As much singing as she does, this is definitive proof that her technique is perfectly sound. People need to check their brains.
OMG her belting range has never been showcased this beautiful I still can't believe people says she doesn't resonate and that she strains these upper belts what!!!!!!! Also she has had resonant F#5
She def resonates,maybe not in 2013-2017 but in 2018 she started to improve,on swt her tehnique became especially good and she started to resonate again in 2018-2019.Shes in her vocal prime right now.
she’s hands down the best vocalist of our generation along with tori, jojo, demi and jessie j. insane support, insanely skilled in all aspects and just. idk man. crazy
vocal stan A5 and Bb5 are utterly useless anyways since no one writes their songs this high to begin with so Ariana doesn’t really utilize A5 and Bb5 support. Her most common high belt is G# and she utilizes that more than A5 support
@@allthingspage1498 people make a bigger deal of '"supporting" than they need to. And they use it to try and discredit incredible singers, as if those aren't talented, just because they don't consistently support every note, every time. it's really stupid.
LITERALLY MY FAVORITE SINGER. My questions is why does everyone say she doesn’t have the best technique but her voice has lasted so long and she sings so much at shows concerts and she is still standing with a voice💀 if it was so bad shouldn’t it had already deteriorated?
Well, in terms of deterioration she's super good at keeping her voice healthy, only difference I've heard is less confidence in high falsetto but lots more confidence in whistles.
Because most people think that these "technique rules" is a dogma. they think if one doesn't do a great job adhering to these rules he/she would be considered as the lesser singer. This black and white way of thinking is just stupid. They failed to realize that there's a variable called "individualisation" which basically means that every person is unique, what's "unhealthy" technique for a lot of people DOESN'T mean it's also unhealthy for some people. So people should just STFU and let Ariana decide for herself which technique is good or bad, what works or what doesn't, what's unhealthy or healthy.
It’s just really weird how people say she strains after B4 but she’s been belting up to Bb5 for 7 years of a mainstream singing career and hasn’t really deteriorated like people say she would. People say “it’s because she has ease on upper belts” but that still means if she was straining so much she would lose some of her belting range and she hasn’t and ease can only take u so far. She has to be supporting up to G5/G#5 at least or somewhere near those notes.

She’s still pushing and chesty on the G#5 and above. If she just used a little more head and less tension should could easily belt C6/C#6 considering how high her voice actually is. But she can pretty much cover the whole 5th octave so I’m not complaining lol

I'm not a fan but holy shit i can appreciate her raw talent. In the West the term "once in a generation" was close to being accurate but isn't anymore. Whitney followed by Mariah followed by Beyonce followed by Ariana. Named these artists because they all have 4-5 octave range as soprano's. All legends minus Ariana because she still has a ton to offer. I'm sure that before she passes on the torch she will be remembered as a legend too. I'm also aware there are similar vocal powerhouses that i didn't mention.
@@decholes95 You're right. No idea why i didn't say female voice instead of soprano. I reread my comment and since it was 5 months ago i can use the excuse i was on "ambien" because that's how it works. This isn't even that bad because I've carpet bombed RUclips with ambien fueled rants that I'm not aware of.
@@subliminal5543 Your claim is just perfectly enough to showcase your lack of knowledge in my point of view. 🙃 Any further describing would just trigger you even more I guess, leading into never ending battle beacuse clearly none of us could be persuaded since we have different imagination about the topic.

Nowadays, her belts are achieved in such a perfect mix. She is so fluid up there. She has improved so much in the past 3 years. She can now hold belts wheras before she only touched the notes. She acquired a better mix not as chesty as at the start of her career. She released some throat tension as well and now simply shines up there. Her B5s are not that good though. In my opinion G5s and G#5s are her strongest notes.
There's going to be the cult coming here to discredit her. Ariana is one of the best high soprano belters. Watch the crappy haters are going to spew their misinformed garbage.
Stargate Messiah Wait @Ryanchannel are at it AGAIN ughhh he’s the most delusional support lovers along with @Garagestudio ugghhhh he’s literally here again with his cocky attitude and judgement ka towards people wordings
@@zamraykiefer9245 kinda hard to explain it’s where like the sound is so smoothe and nice to the singer and people listening it’s like an amazing feeling sorry i don’t know how to explain it well
Great videoo!!! She's awesome!! After watching this, and some other compilations, I have an impression that A5s are harder for her than her Bb5s... maybe it's the approach on the A5s or the songs, but she seem more comfortable on the Bb5s, anyone else noticed that or I'm tripping??
She wants to try more on A5 thats why. Bb5 is more easier for her because she doesn’t need to put in a lot of work for it while A5 u actually need to try harder
@Onur It does. Naturally the lower notes will have to take more effort than the higher notes. For example In Defying Gravity naturally the F5 belt would be harder to hit because its a high note but the sustained C#5’s are the hardest because U literally need to keep your breath the same from beginning to end and also U just belted a F5 in one breath then sustain a C#5 in another. The C#5 is harder than the F5 belt
@Onur U wanted a better explanation so I used One of Broadways most difficult song ever and not true. The higher note will always have the most ease because Ur lightening up ur voice (most of the time) to reach that note. The lower note will always have more effort to do because its something that U won’t take serious since its a lower note
Ariana Grande Vocal Analysis (2024) Voice type: Light-Lyric Soprano Vocal range: C3-B5-E7 (4 octaves and 2 notes) Range with the most consistent quality, comfort, and technique: G3-C#5/D5-A5 At best: F3-F5-C6 Lower register: (7/10) Low notes are bright and clear and have a good projection up to G3 consistently and F3 at best. Quite surprising for someone with a high tessitura considering her high sitting voice. However, she loses consistency, projection, and becomes airy and weak F3 and below. Mid-belts and mix: (7.5/10) Mid belts are surprisingly strong for someone who frequently utilizes a heady mix in her belts. Her approach in her mid-belts during her later years (2019 onwards) is more balanced compared to her honeymoon era (2014-early 2016) where her approach is more heady and dangerous woman era (late 2016-2017) where her approach is chestier. She has good control over her mid-belts and it is more balanced, consistent, accessible, and more tensionless than people assume resulting in an open, free, well-projected, and controlled sound consistently from G#4 to D5 especially from Bb4 to C5 at her best. She definitely improved this part of her voice over the years. Upper-belts/mix: (7/10) As a soprano like her, her ease and control in this area are good. She may not be the very best and the pinnacle of upper-belting out there, as some of her diehard fans tend to believe, but her consistency and stamina in this area is no joke. Although not consistently, she produces the best and balanced quality from Eb5-F5. As she goes higher beyond F5, she tends to sound thinner but still often avoids straining and too much tension up to G#5 (her signature upper-belting/mix note). However, she loses consistency when she reaches A5 and above which can sometimes be prone to tension, although this doesn't happen much as she was still able to possess a decent quality of mix up to Bb5 especially in her be my baby and breathin performances most of the time. This ease and consistency in her upper-belting range is due to her heady approach with her mix and mixed-belts. Nowadays, she utilizes a more balanced approach (balanced head and chest mix) to her upper-belts/mix especially in her thank u, next and yours truly era. This balanced approach is evidently showcased especially in her sweetener tour and 2023 yours truly 10 year anniversary live performance where she produced a decent but balanced mix. Although she has improved this part of her voice over the years, it has always been consistent in quality and technique with minor flaws and inconsistencies. Upper-register (head voice and falsetto): (7.5/10) Contrary to popular belief, Ariana utilizes her head voice just as much as she utilizes her falsetto. Her falsetto is probably one of the best that pop music has to offer. It is polished, smooth, controlled, and easily accessible. On the other hand, her head voice is also good and is consistently well-coordinated and connected up to A5. Performances such as moonlight, thinkin bout you, be alright, get well soon, and many more including song covers such as no one mourns the wicked and I wanna dance with somebody showcases her control and consistency in her head voice. She may not possess the best and most developed head voice in the music industry, but she can still keep up. Her head voice possesses a bright, strong, and roundness quality consistently up to F#5 and sometimes up to A5. However, her head voice can sometimes sound airy which limits her true potential. Further analysis with her head voice after the wicked (2024) movie will come out with her role as Glinda the good witch. Vocal Agility: (7.5/10) This may be the vocal skill she possess that has consistently improved over the years. She may not be as good as the best riffers out there like Mariah Carey, Tori Kelly, Beyonce, JoJo, and many others, but her vocal agility is definitely above average and is an integral part of her singing style. She can consistently execute vocal riffs and runs that are precise, fast, and complex with good creativity and musicality. The only downside is that there are few performances where she sounds pitchy and unstable and her vocal runs are sometimes repetitive. Lastly, during her early years, she tends to move her jaw a lot and fortunately, she got rid of that habit almost entirely. Whistle register: (9.5/10) One of the best whistle register user in her generation. Able to control her whistle with ease and is also able to create vocal runs and vocal phrases with it. Vocal Dynamics: (6.5/10) She has showcased vocal dynamics from time to time where she sang from pianissimo up to fortissimo. This is greatly showcased in her 2023 yours truly 10 year anniversary live performance. However, there are very rare cases of her showcasing crescendo and decresendo. Vibrato: (10/10) Her vibrato is one of the most controlled and well-developed that pop music has to offer. It can range from soft/subtle to aggressive/intense and can even shift to it smoothly. This great vibrato is also evident throughout all her register especially in her belts and upper-register. Vocal transition: (9/10) Able to easily and smoothly transition between registers from chest to head to whistle and with great control. Pitch: (8/10) Her wide vocal range allows her to hit high notes and low notes with good pitch accuracy. She rarely gets off-key and goes sharp/flat. Vocal stamina: (9/10) She is able to consistently perform in long periods and still able to maintain a decent to good technique and quality while doing a bunch of adlibs. The disadvantages she has with her stamina are the very few vocal performances where her voice got exhausted performing long periods and minor inconsistencies with some of her live vocal performances. Note: this analysis is based on an educated opinion and knowledge about vocals and music. Hence, this analysis is based on what I hear from the vocalist's live performances throughout the years. So feel free to politely disagree. Overall: 8.04/10 Overall comment: She is not as bad as critics say she is and also not as great as diehard fans made her out to be. Her development is distributed fairly evenly throughout range with her mid-belts and upper-register being currently the most developed register. Her major weakness may be that she tends to sing beyond her range with the most consistent quality, comfort, and technique. Fortunately, notes beyond her consistent range are rarely strained, tensed, or weak. Lastly, her biggest asset may be her whistle register, musicality/creativity, vocal stamina, vocal transition, and vibrato. At the end of the day, Ariana Grande is rather a stylistic vocalist with an adequate vocal technique and skill to back up her singing style. She tends to change her singing style depending on the era that she's in.
internet make people think they know shit about vocals lol. "she's straining" "her technique is horrible" "jaw tension" lmfao. just because you like to watch vocal coach reaction videos doesn't mean you know anything about vocals and Ariana, you DON'T.
Plus, if she were straining as much as people claimed, her voice would wear off very quickly and she wouldn’t be able to do all the touring and singing she does. She’s been singing since she was a teenager and has had an international touring career for half of her career. Those tours are very stressful on the body and voice and yet, she’s never had to cancel a tour date due to vocal injury. She’s even performed while really sick and still had most of her voice intact. That can only happen when your voice is in top shape and your technique is solid.
i want her belting technique like she's one of the singers i see who won't avoid or dodge belt notes like how can she sing many G#5 awith ease like how
Yeahheeeee my fave singer.for me she is the Best singer in her country or maybe the world....ignore this comment if you're just a basher or you don't like my opinion 😉😍😍

How can u know it's reverb n not her pure ability? That's no sense. It's like saying Whitney couldn't resonate because of the bad quality of the audio back then.
@@joanquintero4670 None of those pop singers have a ring. Whitney included. Those that do, generally do it by accident. Ring is a very specific formant coupling.

D6???? That’s very VERY impressive. I had no clue she could reach D6, like I thought her highest mixed note was B5 I mean it sounded like there was a little bit of strain in that D6 but that was still amazing. Ariana Grande is an amazing singer!❤️
She has the tendency to push on E5’s to sound a little soulful. Thats all. Her Sweetener sustained E5’s and Moonlight E5’s were all Pushed due to Stylistic Reasons
Illuminate Light Thats the truth tho. She does push on E5s more than her F5’s. Stop being a complete dumbass and actually accept that Ariana is a good vocalist
Wait... So the G#5 in "Focus" at AMA 2015 was what they'd call a -resonant- belt? So my initial assumption when I first got into vocal pedagogy was correct all along?! 😂 BTW, if Ari's this consistent up to G#5 / A5, does this imply that she can reach Whitney's level of proficiency (belting wise) if her full potential is realised? 🤯 🤔
Okay real talk. When you say the CVSS is coming soon, how long we talking? Cuz I GENUINELY can't wait any longer. NO cap. So days? Weeks? Another month? Love this video BTW.
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 yeah, but the honest vocal coach reacts to singers and I want her to see this video, because it truly showcases how resonant, healthy and powerful her mid belts are.
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 but the video doesn't say "grounded or free", she would probably think that it's just a part of the decoration of the video, putting the notes in these colors
Y'all, I have questions (Camila joined the chat lol jk) lmaoo, how would/do you recognize which of the belts are ringing, or grounded or whatever? What does ringing, grounded, free or none of the above mean? Is it like, ringing = resonant, grounded = larynx is well placed or something/not strained or tense, free = ...? lol idk and red = tensed/pushed/strain? And how do notes change from grounded or free to none of the above or ringing real quick like in the G5 examples lol? Damn I sound like a clown y'all loll 💀💀💀💀

The B5 speaking note showed she had potential to be comfortable to belt a B5
In all honesty I think she can belt a C6 by the amount of ease she has on her Bb's. She probably hasn't mastered the note though. So, she probably keeps it saved for home. 😅😅

@Illuminate Light yeah for sure. so think of the voice as its own body. yes, im asking you to visualize the voice (all parts that make or help to make sound: larynx or voice box, lungs, vocal cords) as this vessel that changes the color of sounds that descend or ascend throughout the body. that being said, let's give each section that helps to define voice its own color. for instance, head (cranium) section is colored blue. chest section is colored red. the midway point, let's call it the "chead" section is colored yellow. each color, each section comes with a not so visual sound color. the head (blue) section has a hollow, more haunting, or empty sound. the chest (red) section has a more full and forward sound. and the midway (yellow) section has qualities/characteristics of both. as the voice lives in the chest (red) area, it has lower, fuller, darker sounds. as one would expect, the head (blue) section would have the complete opposite: higher, brighter, thinner sounds. and that leaves the midway (yellow) section to have a mixture of characteristics from both the blue and the red section since it sits right in the middle acting as a passageway from one point to the other. you say, "there's no such thing as chesty or heady," in your claim above, which is false when talking in terms of vocal color, which is what the person who initiated this comment section thread was trying to say. to repeat, not saying that you believe this, but to anyone else who might or who skims this and think that we're trying to bash Ariana, we're not. its a simple vocal analysis. head voice is the second highest register that the human voice can make. whistle register is the highest, though it is separate from the voice in a sense. all "high" notes produced by any human are in some relation to the head voice register. as all low or chestier notes are related to chest/modal voice. @Clint Easton claims that if Ariana were to use more of a headier mix on notes passed G#5, she'd have easier access and perhaps would even obtain the note B5 or notes higher: 6th octave notes. naturally, 6th octave notes live in the head voice or whistle register, which in this case, we are sticking with head voice terminology. well, think of it. since 6th octave notes' home is the head voice, wouldn't it make sense that in order to BELT higher and easier, the notes would have to take on some of these head voice qualities? which in turn makes them sound heady? that's where the terms heady and chesty originate from. as notes move higher, they take on more head (blue) qualities and as they move lower they take on more chest (red) qualities. this is very true, however, every singer is different. some don't like for their belting notes to sound heady, as it makes them sound light and without power (Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, Demi Lovato), while others work for this lighter take (Amber Riley, Ariana Grande), and others work for more of a middle, like Tori Kelly or JoJo (which is what Ariana is trying to do nowadays when compared to her earlier years, look at Pink Champagne in 2011-2012 versus her more recent performances of the song). also, sometimes, whether a singer sounds more headier or chestier in their belting range is out of their control - puberty, birth, maturation, etc. @Illuminate Light you say the existence of chesty or heady terminology, functions "contradicts how the voice works" when that is the complete opposite. it makes absolutely no sense for you to make a claim like that and further proves your lack of knowledge in regards to the voice and its function when singing. this is not me belittling you or trying to embarrass you. i simply hope that through this lengthy explanation that you understand a little bit more about the voice, and in return, Ms. Grande and other celebrity singers.

Any creator starting a vocal range below B4 is an intellectual. Literally her F4 - A4 has never been showcased as extensively
Yessssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup Exactly!!!!!!
@Stargate Messiah You're still doing it. She has consistency well beyond B4. Stop spreading fallacies.
@Stargate Messiah This video shows her consistency up to G5/G#5. If you can't hear that then that's on you. Stop repeating that same crap. The anatomy of her voice allows her as a soprano to have comfortability high. That's a scientific fact.
Thanks love!
6:47 that is probably the most gorgeous note that's ever been sang.
It’s very exhausting seeing people always saying Ariana doesn’t support her notes. I feel like if she’s that consistent and her voice obviously isn’t failing her shes singing with the right technique. She’s so beautiful ❤️
Amore Arusko She supports her voice and her notes like 90% of her concerts. She does concerts while fatigued and sick. So if her voice can last her 100+ concerts and the 200+ tour she did on Broadway when she was a teenager and can still sing to this day proves she is supporting her notes and her voice perfectly fine.

before saying anything, think that the last year, she was singing over 30 demanding songs each night, and never got aphonic.
still her best year vocally she's incredible ✨
Exactly! If she had poor or subpar technique, her voice would wear off very quickly and she wouldn't be able to do the crazy touring she does. Not to mention, she was SICK for SEVERAL dates of her several tours and maintained access to 90% of her full vocal range. I don’t think people get how hard is is to sing with most of your voice intact while sick with a cold or any illness that involves lots of coughing, sneezing, and hoarseness. Viral illnesses like the flu or common colds are considered DEATH to the voice for most singers. Many of the examples of grounded and/or ringing notes here were sung while she was SICK. And aside from one vocal injury in 2013 caused by screaming too much with not enough rest (Ariana’s own words) she has not had a single vocal issue requiring medical attention due to singing or touring. As much singing as she does, this is definitive proof that her technique is perfectly sound. People need to check their brains.
@@GetWellSoonR.E.M. like demi, that has to take rest between tours because her belts are so heavy and tense past E5

LITERALLY MY FAVORITE SINGER. My questions is why does everyone say she doesn’t have the best technique but her voice has lasted so long and she sings so much at shows concerts and she is still standing with a voice💀 if it was so bad shouldn’t it had already deteriorated?
Well, in terms of deterioration she's super good at keeping her voice healthy, only difference I've heard is less confidence in high falsetto but lots more confidence in whistles.
Because most people think that these "technique rules" is a dogma. they think if one doesn't do a great job adhering to these rules he/she would be considered as the lesser singer. This black and white way of thinking is just stupid. They failed to realize that there's a variable called "individualisation" which basically means that every person is unique, what's "unhealthy" technique for a lot of people DOESN'T mean it's also unhealthy for some people. So people should just STFU and let Ariana decide for herself which technique is good or bad, what works or what doesn't, what's unhealthy or healthy.

It’s just really weird how people say she strains after B4 but she’s been belting up to Bb5 for 7 years of a mainstream singing career and hasn’t really deteriorated like people say she would. People say “it’s because she has ease on upper belts” but that still means if she was straining so much she would lose some of her belting range and she hasn’t and ease can only take u so far. She has to be supporting up to G5/G#5 at least or somewhere near those notes.
To belt a Bb5 it has to be supported, otherwise the note will just be screamed and flat.

I'm not a fan but holy shit i can appreciate her raw talent. In the West the term "once in a generation" was close to being accurate but isn't anymore. Whitney followed by Mariah followed by Beyonce followed by Ariana. Named these artists because they all have 4-5 octave range as soprano's. All legends minus Ariana because she still has a ton to offer. I'm sure that before she passes on the torch she will be remembered as a legend too. I'm also aware there are similar vocal powerhouses that i didn't mention.

She wants to try more on A5 thats why. Bb5 is more easier for her because she doesn’t need to put in a lot of work for it while A5 u actually need to try harder
@Onur It does. Naturally the lower notes will have to take more effort than the higher notes. For example In Defying Gravity naturally the F5 belt would be harder to hit because its a high note but the sustained C#5’s are the hardest because U literally need to keep your breath the same from beginning to end and also U just belted a F5 in one breath then sustain a C#5 in another. The C#5 is harder than the F5 belt
@Onur U wanted a better explanation so I used One of Broadways most difficult song ever and not true. The higher note will always have the most ease because Ur lightening up ur voice (most of the time) to reach that note. The lower note will always have more effort to do because its something that U won’t take serious since its a lower note

Ariana Grande Vocal Analysis (2024)
Voice type: Light-Lyric Soprano
Vocal range: C3-B5-E7 (4 octaves and 2 notes)
Range with the most consistent quality, comfort, and technique: G3-C#5/D5-A5
At best: F3-F5-C6
Lower register: (7/10)
Low notes are bright and clear and have a good projection up to G3 consistently and F3 at best. Quite surprising for someone with a high tessitura considering her high sitting voice. However, she loses consistency, projection, and becomes airy and weak F3 and below.
Mid-belts and mix: (7.5/10)
Mid belts are surprisingly strong for someone who frequently utilizes a heady mix in her belts. Her approach in her mid-belts during her later years (2019 onwards) is more balanced compared to her honeymoon era (2014-early 2016) where her approach is more heady and dangerous woman era (late 2016-2017) where her approach is chestier. She has good control over her mid-belts and it is more balanced, consistent, accessible, and more tensionless than people assume resulting in an open, free, well-projected, and controlled sound consistently from G#4 to D5 especially from Bb4 to C5 at her best. She definitely improved this part of her voice over the years.
Upper-belts/mix: (7/10)
As a soprano like her, her ease and control in this area are good. She may not be the very best and the pinnacle of upper-belting out there, as some of her diehard fans tend to believe, but her consistency and stamina in this area is no joke. Although not consistently, she produces the best and balanced quality from Eb5-F5. As she goes higher beyond F5, she tends to sound thinner but still often avoids straining and too much tension up to G#5 (her signature upper-belting/mix note). However, she loses consistency when she reaches A5 and above which can sometimes be prone to tension, although this doesn't happen much as she was still able to possess a decent quality of mix up to Bb5 especially in her be my baby and breathin performances most of the time. This ease and consistency in her upper-belting range is due to her heady approach with her mix and mixed-belts. Nowadays, she utilizes a more balanced approach (balanced head and chest mix) to her upper-belts/mix especially in her thank u, next and yours truly era. This balanced approach is evidently showcased especially in her sweetener tour and 2023 yours truly 10 year anniversary live performance where she produced a decent but balanced mix. Although she has improved this part of her voice over the years, it has always been consistent in quality and technique with minor flaws and inconsistencies.
Upper-register (head voice and falsetto): (7.5/10)
Contrary to popular belief, Ariana utilizes her head voice just as much as she utilizes her falsetto. Her falsetto is probably one of the best that pop music has to offer. It is polished, smooth, controlled, and easily accessible. On the other hand, her head voice is also good and is consistently well-coordinated and connected up to A5. Performances such as moonlight, thinkin bout you, be alright, get well soon, and many more including song covers such as no one mourns the wicked and I wanna dance with somebody showcases her control and consistency in her head voice. She may not possess the best and most developed head voice in the music industry, but she can still keep up. Her head voice possesses a bright, strong, and roundness quality consistently up to F#5 and sometimes up to A5. However, her head voice can sometimes sound airy which limits her true potential. Further analysis with her head voice after the wicked (2024) movie will come out with her role as Glinda the good witch.
Vocal Agility: (7.5/10)
This may be the vocal skill she possess that has consistently improved over the years. She may not be as good as the best riffers out there like Mariah Carey, Tori Kelly, Beyonce, JoJo, and many others, but her vocal agility is definitely above average and is an integral part of her singing style. She can consistently execute vocal riffs and runs that are precise, fast, and complex with good creativity and musicality. The only downside is that there are few performances where she sounds pitchy and unstable and her vocal runs are sometimes repetitive. Lastly, during her early years, she tends to move her jaw a lot and fortunately, she got rid of that habit almost entirely.
Whistle register: (9.5/10)
One of the best whistle register user in her generation. Able to control her whistle with ease and is also able to create vocal runs and vocal phrases with it.
Vocal Dynamics: (6.5/10)
She has showcased vocal dynamics from time to time where she sang from pianissimo up to fortissimo. This is greatly showcased in her 2023 yours truly 10 year anniversary live performance. However, there are very rare cases of her showcasing crescendo and decresendo.
Vibrato: (10/10)
Her vibrato is one of the most controlled and well-developed that pop music has to offer. It can range from soft/subtle to aggressive/intense and can even shift to it smoothly. This great vibrato is also evident throughout all her register especially in her belts and upper-register.
Vocal transition: (9/10)
Able to easily and smoothly transition between registers from chest to head to whistle and with great control.
Pitch: (8/10)
Her wide vocal range allows her to hit high notes and low notes with good pitch accuracy. She rarely gets off-key and goes sharp/flat.
Vocal stamina: (9/10)
She is able to consistently perform in long periods and still able to maintain a decent to good technique and quality while doing a bunch of adlibs. The disadvantages she has with her stamina are the very few vocal performances where her voice got exhausted performing long periods and minor inconsistencies with some of her live vocal performances.
Note: this analysis is based on an educated opinion and knowledge about vocals and music. Hence, this analysis is based on what I hear from the vocalist's live performances throughout the years. So feel free to politely disagree.
Overall: 8.04/10
Overall comment: She is not as bad as critics say she is and also not as great as diehard fans made her out to be. Her development is distributed fairly evenly throughout range with her mid-belts and upper-register being currently the most developed register. Her major weakness may be that she tends to sing beyond her range with the most consistent quality, comfort, and technique. Fortunately, notes beyond her consistent range are rarely strained, tensed, or weak. Lastly, her biggest asset may be her whistle register, musicality/creativity, vocal stamina, vocal transition, and vibrato. At the end of the day, Ariana Grande is rather a stylistic vocalist with an adequate vocal technique and skill to back up her singing style. She tends to change her singing style depending on the era that she's in.
great video as always❤️
it's me Daydream era LOL
Thanks!
U still has the greatest tone ever uwu
@@joanquintero4670 thanks ❤️❤️❤️, Rainbow and Glitter too❤️
@@aricarey1474 sis, rainbow has some note changes weird af ☠️
@@joanquintero4670 💀💀
internet make people think they know shit about vocals lol. "she's straining" "her technique is horrible" "jaw tension" lmfao. just because you like to watch vocal coach reaction videos doesn't mean you know anything about vocals and Ariana, you DON'T.
exactly omg!
Plus, if she were straining as much as people claimed, her voice would wear off very quickly and she wouldn’t be able to do all the touring and singing she does. She’s been singing since she was a teenager and has had an international touring career for half of her career. Those tours are very stressful on the body and voice and yet, she’s never had to cancel a tour date due to vocal injury. She’s even performed while really sick and still had most of her voice intact. That can only happen when your voice is in top shape and your technique is solid.
14:02 It sounds like the ringing G#5 belt for me😄
i want her belting technique like she's one of the singers i see who won't avoid or dodge belt notes like how can she sing many G#5 awith ease like how
Thank you for the little sneak peek
Even more excited for the "actual" video
the fact that some clips from ariana on her pre-debut era are included here bc shes already so good in her pre-debut era 😭
I love the B4 at 4:07😍
Yeahheeeee my fave singer.for me she is the Best singer in her country or maybe the world....ignore this comment if you're just a basher or you don't like my opinion 😉😍😍
The fact that Ariana even has a free Bb5 is insane! She has so much freedom throughout her range
Great video! Although I disagree on some notes (I wouldn't deem some notes ringing, but I would some others that you didn't lol), the video is great.
Thanks!
OMG
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH 😱😱😱🔥🔥🔥💗💗💗✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
this is a great video!!
you did an amazing job finding all these great clips and labelling/coloring them correctly. this must have taken forever tho obviously many of us appreciate it so thanks
12:35 i always thought this was ringing
3:38-3:45 her voice changed a lot
I still miss her hmt tone :
Yuh yuh yuh!!! Thank you for such a beautiful video! And also the use of new videos and not like every other Chanel ab ari that reuses every note
Wowwwwwww its so easy for her to attempting belted high notes!!!!!!
The Tone ❤️
I’m laughing at the people who claim her belts not to be ‘supported’ or whatever terminology they love using.
Fr
15:03 I’m still convinced this is an A5 lol
It’s a tiny bit flat lol
Same... I can't hear the Bb5 lol
the vibrato is a little pitchy
It is a tiny bit flat but it’s to high to be classed as a A5 but too flat to be a centred Bb5. So it’s still a Bb5 but just abit flat
@@CamdenE
I have a question. Are you educated in vocal pedagogy? Just curious
when i saw this video i clicked so fast!!!
While I really love Ariana and her voice and technique is amazing but I have to stand by what I think is correct. Hence my corrections:
F#4:
0:10 - 0:18 all grounded instead of ringing
G4:
0:22 - 0:54 all grounded instead of ringing
G#4:
1:00 - 1:24 all grounded instead of ringing
A4:
1:40 - 2:22 all grounded instead of ringing
Bb4:
2:26-2:52 - grounded
2:54 - how can a person suddenly go from a grounded to ringing vocals lol when I literally hear no changes
3:07-3:23 all grounded
B4:
3:28-4:21 all grounded (mic effects are becoming stronger)
4:25 - pitchy, dislike that even though she corrected herself (grounded)
4:30-5:12 all grounded again
C5:
5:15 - famous example but bad audio quality + mic = fake ring feeling, next
5:25-5:37 were grounded
5:39-5:50 were just free, not so much core
5:54 - Touch It C5's were all grounded af
5:58 - twang=/=ring, grounded
6:05 - grounded
6:13-6:40 - all free, not so much core on these C5's
6:42 - this C5 is grounded though
6:45-6:53 - this is just free with sligth dynamics
C#5:
6:55-7:06 - just free
7:10 - this one is grounded
7:11 - free
7:16-7:20 - grounded
7:25 - free
7:29-7:38 - those are all grounded
D5:
7:39-7:45 - those are grounded
7:52 - just free
7:54-7:57 - grounded
8:10 - free + power of the reverb
8:12 - that's grounded
8:28 - free + reverb
Eb5:
8:32 - free + a little reverb
8:49 - free + reverb
9:08 - free
E5:
9:39 - that's grounded
9:45-10:01 - free + reverb
10:04 - free + reverb of the room
F5:
10:12 - free + reverb
11:04 - I believe it's more of just free + reverb
F#5:
11:32 - free
12:00 - not sure why it's tensed note it wasn't tensed lol
G5:
12:24 - free + reverb
12:45 - those are all free
12:57 - free + reverb
13:05 - a little core but generally free
13:06 - free
13:10 - a little core but free
G#5:
13:21 - free + reverb (still one of her best)
13:25 - just free
13:28 - free + reverb (that vibrato though)
13:31 - just free
13:35 - free + reverb
13:43 - same
13:47 - same
13:56 - same
14:01 - same
14:15 - same (killer vibrato once again)
A5:
14:20 - first note wasn't tense, it's just a bit rough offset, sound artefact
14:34 - second A5 wasn't tense
Bb5:
14:55 - we stan same note included twice
I see u
Damn
Yea ari is more of a 'free' singer
How can u know it's reverb n not her pure ability? That's no sense. It's like saying Whitney couldn't resonate because of the bad quality of the audio back then.
@@joanquintero4670 None of those pop singers have a ring. Whitney included. Those that do, generally do it by accident. Ring is a very specific formant coupling.
her mid belts are so underated
0:14 this is the best vibrato I've heard in my life wow
11:59 actually is "grounded"
No I don’t hear core at all. In fact I would definitely count that as tense
Grounded and tense aren’t really opposites tho. Grounded is a tonal quality. You are more likely to be grounded with a tense sound.
@@KajiVocals Is a made up term by a 16 years old 💀. You people have completely bastardized the art of singing and turn it into a competition who hit the best note of all term. @ChimmierC was right all along
Illuminate Light Grounded has been used by people like Manuel Garcia for ages......
@@KajiVocals If you want to use it. Use it correctly 💀this system calling Lara belt has core tho. How is that trustable? Misuse of term
10:00 OMG I was waiting for this note
I actually really applaud this vocal complination! It has AWESOME vocals! 😉👍😊 What do the different colors mean though? The light blue, green, yellow, red, and pinkish colors? Well, I really enjoyed the vedio anyways! I will wait patiently for the new rounds if the CVSS vedios! 😁
The light blue:consistently ringing
Green: inconsistently ringing
Yellow: inconsistently grounded
Red: strain/without breath support
And pinkish color: difficult to know if it's a very heady mix or masked head voice
@@joanquintero4670 oh, okay! Thank you! I appreciate the clarification! 😁👍
@@joanquintero4670 Head Mix. Masked Place Head Voice doesn’t exist at all because its basically Twanged Head Voice
best vocal channel. u cant change my mind.
Lalisa Manoban ouch 😂😂😂😂. Jk I love cam too ❤️❤️❤️

Awww
13:25 Please where is this as soon as possible 😭😭😭
Philadelphia
@@armansyahdh6009 i love u so much
@@superdaemon Too 🥰❤️✨
D6???? That’s very VERY impressive. I had no clue she could reach D6, like I thought her highest mixed note was B5 I mean it sounded like there was a little bit of strain in that D6 but that was still amazing. Ariana Grande is an amazing singer!❤️
"Ariana strains above B4"
"Ariana has no resonance"
Me: *shows this vid*
Um, I can't hear the resonance on Ari. So? ANy solid facts to protect your claims?
Illuminate Light Stfu. Stop your hating tho she doesn’t actually resonate
@@subliminal5543 you keep hating ariana, are you paid to do that lmao
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 She actually resonates lmao- what's your definition of resonance cuz you're misusing terms all the time
@@subliminal5543 She doesn’t. Real Ring is something Singers takes years to practice. Dumbass
Camden, can u make a video about what's main difference between consistently grounded and inconsistently grounded?
The only difference is that if she is consistently grounded, she is grounded more often than not!
@@CamdenE i am literally don't understand what are you talking about 😭😭😭😭
Grounded = core to the sound.
I think she has some type of difficult with E5, but very much ease on G#5/A5/Bb5
She has the tendency to push on E5’s to sound a little soulful. Thats all. Her Sweetener sustained E5’s and Moonlight E5’s were all Pushed due to Stylistic Reasons
It’s around the acoustic shift for most people.
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 Can you pls stop denying her flaws with make up bs and accept scientific facts? Um I could not-
Illuminate Light Thats the truth tho. She does push on E5s more than her F5’s. Stop being a complete dumbass and actually accept that Ariana is a good vocalist
@@subliminal5543 Ur the one who constantly spread lies about everything
Queen💜
AMAZING
Her vocal style is both flawed yet interesting and will allow her to sing for decades tbh
You did her dirty with the b5 ones.
No actually it’s perfect
Wait... So the G#5 in "Focus" at AMA 2015 was what they'd call a -resonant- belt? So my initial assumption when I first got into vocal pedagogy was correct all along?! 😂
BTW, if Ari's this consistent up to G#5 / A5, does this imply that she can reach Whitney's level of proficiency (belting wise) if her full potential is realised? 🤯 🤔
Yes
*no. She's not even close to whitney. **_At all._*
@@kevindurbin7412 Never said that. I was literally only saying yes to the first paragraph
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 Did I reply to you? I thought I was replying to Walter.
@@kevindurbin7412 U actually didn’t reply to anyone so I just assumed it was me 😅😅😅😅😅
where was 8:40?? that fast vibrato on "least" was so goooodddd
Y'all say it with me now, "effortless Queen"
13:28 omg that supported
Okay real talk. When you say the CVSS is coming soon, how long we talking? Cuz I GENUINELY can't wait any longer. NO cap. So days? Weeks? Another month? Love this video BTW.
Maybe two weeks?
@@CamdenE I hope so
Speedy Comet16 Just know at least 6/10 of the clips in the Ariana CVSS have been supplied by me ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 that's lit!!!!
GrandeFlamesButera then it’s going to be great
I want the honest vocal coach to see this 🥺😂
No. Vocal coaches don’t really know how the Voice Operates. They coach your voice not teach it like Voice Teachers do
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 yeah,
but the honest vocal coach reacts to singers and I want her to see this video, because it truly showcases how resonant, healthy and powerful her mid belts are.
@@charliecullinan2873 She would probably be so confused since she doesn’t know what Grounded or Free means
@@grandeflamesbutera3949 but the video doesn't say "grounded or free", she would probably think that it's just a part of the decoration of the video, putting the notes in these colors
u used 2 of the same breathin performances for the Bb5
Y'all, I have questions (Camila joined the chat lol jk) lmaoo, how would/do you recognize which of the belts are ringing, or grounded or whatever? What does ringing, grounded, free or none of the above mean? Is it like, ringing = resonant, grounded = larynx is well placed or something/not strained or tense, free = ...? lol idk and red = tensed/pushed/strain?
And how do notes change from grounded or free to none of the above or ringing real quick like in the G5 examples lol? Damn I sound like a clown y'all loll 💀💀💀💀
Can u do demi lovato as well
imagine saying shes a bad technician when shes the most consistent belter of pop music
What this colors means?
Edit: already saw in description 🤭 (ps: love this details about colocation/ressonance)
❤️❤️❤️
the two best singers in this generation: ariana grande and lea michele
ALL THE FETUS A5s?!?!
