WATCH PART 2: ruclips.net/video/ReH6rX8G7f8g/видео.htmlot I got a copyright claim for this video (obviously) but choosing not to mute the audio because I want ya'll to be able to hear the examples. IF you'd like to support the channel, join channel memberships HERE: bit.ly/joinlxgend So when/if things like this happen I can still pay my bills lol... thanks.
Don’t know what that is or who makes it but even if I did I’m not doing remakes really anymore unless it’s for client work. If you’ve got a budget let me know.
Can you help me?! Why when i want to warmup my throat it just get hurt so much?! You know what i mean?! I don't know why and its really painful sometimes
it's important to remember these are not specific technical names for types, they are how I personally classify certain vocal expressions in communicating your songs and stories when singing.
In the Philippines, literally almost every singer is a powerhouse. Singing high and belting is the standard. If you're not a powerhouse, then people would not see you as a good vocalist. :(
Yes, they easily get impressed by that even though there are some noticeable flat notes. As long as you start belting your lungs out they'll consider you a good singer.
That’s how it is mostly in society. People have to really have an appreciation for music to get how beautiful softer and minimal voices really are. Anyone can scream or sing loud. It takes skill to sing soft and still communicate your message effectively.
Lol I get what you mean...but I think the industry is changing a bit because there's a lot of singers that is idolized even though they're not powerhouse like Moaira Ben N Ben Jireh Lim etc
Including yours :) my viewers mean everything to me. Just wanna show love back. And hope they continue to come back to watch more and subscribe. Also, your name. Agata. Are you Polish?
Alex Yodson this is not true. Some people have the ability to do it all. Some do not even with the utmost practice and patience. Every vocal chord is not physically built to be able to withstand every type of singing. I’ve seen people who practice belting and screaming for years still suck a belting and screaming... but thrive at soft singing or chilled out vocals. It’s not once size fits all. The same way that not everyone can dance. Or not everyone can design fashion. There are people born with the skill. There are also people who have the capacity to learn these skills. And there are also people who just no matter how much they go they won’t get it because it’s not meant for them. It’s very important to know and realize this. Otherwise you’re fighting a losing uphill battle constantly trying to do something your body physically cannot handle. This is not even factoring in the fact that your voice changes with age. I used to be able to sing first soprano when I was 13. No head voice or falsetto. Just straight from the chest. When I turned 17-18 my voice changes entirely and Its physically impossible for me to do that now. I can’t “sing anything I want” because I literally can’t physically get my voice to sing that high from my chest anymore. I’m no longer built for that. Mid range is where I shine.
@@IAMLXGEND I can appreciate your insight. You obviously have actual anecdotes from your time teaching. I'm only going off what I've experienced, and I'm surely making mistakes. I'm of the mind that most people have the potential to be very versatile in their ability to control their voice. Then again, I'm just some dude thinking he knows something.
you’re not wrong but it’s only to an extent. Everyone has the potential to do more than they think but they still have their limitations. While some can do literally everything, some people’s range and abilities just aren’t as flexible as others. It’s like those who are in the olympics for instance. We all can run right? And we all can practice running fast as well. However, that doesn’t mean we all have the ability to run as fast as Usain Bolt. His body is just built different... Or we all have the ability to be smart. We all can study a lot. But that doesn’t mean all of us have the ability to see the world through the eyes of Albert Einstein or Neil Degrass Tyson. Just some examples.
@@IAMLXGEND Oh absolutely, I'm with you 100 percent on that. That was the idea I was trying to make, but you've done it much better. We might never be as fast as usain bolt but we all still have the potential to be a good runner. In the same vain i firmly believe that Ariana Grande could pull off a good sounding growl if she really wanted to.
The first thing that came up to my mind when I see the word powerhouse Mitochondria Edit: oh maaaan you guys made my day :D m glad some of you actually learnt something lololol
Agreed. The level of analysis here is mad. And how he actually overviews the concept of a whole artist BRAND rather than just their voice; if that makes sense.
That might mean you have a strong mix, which is what most most disney princess songs use to have that clear tone to it, if you wanna sing more softly you could watch some voice lessons on the head voice, there's a lot of great vocal coaches on RUclips. If you learn to use your head voice well and then add more breath to it, let more air through your vocal chords, you'll get a great soft style. Especially if you already have a strong mix I'm sure this will be easy for you
As someone who can’t sing but still enjoys it, I think it’s safe to say I resonate with soft/minimal vocalists most. Thank you so much for sharing! It’s very clear how much you love music by how knowledgeable you are. We appreciate you! :)
Thank you so much for this comment! I really do enjoy seeing when people can get some good value out of what I love talking about / doing. Nice to also see people who actually listen and watch through and don’t complain. I get so many complaints about “too much talking” and I’m just like… what do you expect? Lol
That’s a blessing I would do anything to be able to sing soft notes...I can sing them when Im still young but if I try it now,no voice like literally no voice came out and I adore Billie so much I sang all of her songs and I just sound terrible
I think Ariana at the end also brings up a good point that could and should probably be made: No one has to be or I would even argue always is just 1 of those vocal types, mix and match, explore yourself and give yourself range as a performer. Remember to never limit yourself with these sort of guidelines because then you’re missing the point of the video entirely, he doesn’t want you to pick one of these and just go with it, but rather for you to be able to explore these vocal differences with more accuracy, no matter how many you associate yourself with. Great video all up, keep making content that feels genuine!
I find myself naturally in tune with singing softer similar to Billie. I can hit higher notes but I don't enjoy singing loudly or belting. I find singing softly gives me more control and I enjoy it much more. I always thought I needed to 'up' my level but this video shows that it's just my voice type. Thanks!
Same I used to feel this way to. I tried so hard for so long to be a powerhouse to the point of even straining my vocal chords each time I sang. It wasn’t up until I realised that I’m a soft singer. I found this out when I would sing songs to myself that I would think of - own lyrics/thoughts - that I could truly hear my own voice. If you ever listen to Brazilian bossa, that’s how I would categorise my voice
I tried to sing softly but I find that I sound 10x better when I project myself. being a powerhouse is so much work cuz then you'll always annoy people lmfao everyone really is talented in their own way and its cool that you can sing softly
that's opposite of me i love powerhouse before i even knew what powerhouse was listening to Bruno got me into singing and he's powerhouse!! and i was in awe with bey's vocals in single ladies that "oh oh oh" part and she's one of my vocal idols and she's powerhouse too like lmao 😂
This made me feel better about singing because people around me see being able to sing as having a powerhouse voice. I feel validated as someone who has a soft voice. Thank you 🥰
Of course. Don't let anyone or society dictate to you that you must have this huge crazy voice just to be a good singer. You can be the best with a soft, mild mannered vocal.
my problem is that my voice when speaking is fairly quiet and my personality is also mild and shy, but when singing my voice is very strong and powerful. and that sadly doesn’t really match my overall image.
Have you heard of Lawrence? Listen to a song of theirs called "Ain't about you" When I first heard the girls voice I was like whooooa she does not look like she sounds but when I kept listening to them I got used to it. People might get shocked at first but then they get used to it. So like... just sing 🤗
Jessica Sanchez ! She's a runner up in American Idol (idk what season lol). Her fellow contestants specifically said that she's very quiet and shy, but then goes her performing like a powerhouse in the show. Don't be down about it, use it to your advantage. The wow factor will definitely be off the roof 😉
@@shirleytatha8189 it did this to me when I first heard Perrie Edwards sing. She looks like she has the kind of very soft and high voice, but she actually has an extremely powerful and strong voice. You can use it to mind blow people with it!❤❤❤❤❤
I have a soft sweet singing voice. I used to think I couldn't sing because I didn't have powerful vocals like my cousin, but I later learned that we just have different styles. And that's okay! ^_^
I'm not good at singing. But sometimes i sing (when my parents isn't home), and i think i'm good at singing with soft voice, or high voice. I don't know why, but it just sounded better than when i sing with my normal kinda deep voice
Mariah is one of the most versatile singers of all time. The way she can flip from soft, but intricate runs to powerhouse belts and whistles to the lowest of lows is unbelievable. Not to mention her incredible songwriting and producing abilities... there's videos on RUclips of her songs stripped apart and you really get an idea of how many meaningful vocal layers she adds to her songs. Even her whistle register is used more so as an instrument rather than her just showing off. Everything has a purpose in her music.
You ever heard of Morissette Amon? She's a legit powerhouse but she can do these soft singing too. She's really versatile. Her cover of Mariah's Fly Like A Bird shows her soft and powerhouse style.
Some of my favorites. Powerhouse. Male. Steve Perry, Lou Gramm, Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, Klaus Meine, Mike Reno. Female: Adele, Celine, Lara Fabian, Whitney, Mariah, Morissette Amon. Great way to classify vocal quality! 😃
i come from a place where it's expected for everyone to have a powerhouse voice. this made me a bit more comfortable about not having it. i don't need a powerhouse voice to get my songs' messages through. sincerely, a minimal voice
Are you from any country in particular? Because I kind of have the same problem lol. In my country, people are known for belting and being powerhouses, but I’m just, not lol.
It’s hard for me to find my voice because, I feel like I’m able to sing in similar ranges from like: Beyoncè, Ariana to like deeper voices like Sza and H.E.R. It’s hard for me to find MY voice
That’s normal! I used to use Michael Jackson and sounded exactly like him in my first 2 albums. You WANT to use people as inspiration. That’s how it works. Find who you relate to the most vocally. Copy them. And then in time add your own style and own flare. it’s totally normal.
I can sing along to any genre but when I sing along to my own I have a hard time finding the melody/harmony. I feel like I’m stacked and I have range but I can’t really push it loud
Finding the melody is not the same as finding your range or voice. That has moreso to do with music theory as a melody is a series of notes in succession of each other. And a harmony is corresponding notes to another within a scale/chord.
Metal vocalist requires power. Aka: powerhouse. Just with grit. Also important to note these are not every type nor are they technically correct terms. They are how I refer to them asz
Thank you for posting this. I think I'll start singing in mininalist style because it suits my voice the best. I always wanted to do powerhouse or runs, but I'm not cut out for it. Never really knew about all these different tones until you pointed it out! Testing to see if you see this comment 1 year later 😂.
I’m a male, gotta a pretty deep voice and usually am relatively soft in my style, however my band and I recently discovered that my years of listening and practicing Muse songs led me to have a really well developed falsetto. It’s kinda become our thing now to go from these soft style lines down in the 2nd octave to really high pitched kinda powerhouse stuff up in the 5th/6th
I was about to say while I started to read your comment if you were hiding behind your voice . I used to do it but I was gon say try falsetto . I’m glad you’re here learning 💜
@@destinixshakur it’s weird reading my comment in hindsight, I had a surgery to remove a really bad blockage that was found in my nasal cavity, the doctors were shocked I could even breathe out of my nose at all. since then my voice has improved tremendously. Pretty much went from less then a 2 octave range when I write that to pushing 3 as of now. It was kind of a miracle that it improved my voice that much.
I'm definitely a powerhouse. My voice teacher has talked about me having a rly big strong voice and my biggest influences are Micheal Jackson and Bruno Mars(from listening to them all the time with my family lmao)
I’m the opposite, I’m female and I prefer singing lower than expected, but I am usually expected to sing like an octave higher than I like to. But, I’m also comfortable singing like A5, as well as F3
I'm a guy, and I really liked singing in falsetto, but when puberty hit me, I literally lost it and whenever I tried to do it, my voice cracks, and then turns into a shriek😂
I think mine is a bit of harry styles but without the rock and roll kind of sound. But last time I recorded myself I sounded HORRIBLE and I just don't know what to do
Came here from another video because it didn't give any audio examples *facepalm* I'm glad you gave specific examples to sing along with and find our style :)
To be fair it’s hard to give examples without getting a copyright claim and even though I still wasn’t able to escape getting claimed I felt it was far more important for people to hear what they should be listening for! 🤙🏾 thanks for giving me a watch
i used to be the soft voice but then i suddenly found that "chest voice" from me xd at first it sounded awful 'cause i couldnt control it at all but then i just practised and practised and now, after like a year or so, it actually sounds pretty good but sure i still have a lot to learn and improve
@@dany5622 yup...she does have a powerful voice in some of her songs not in context to higher notes but just feels powerful..btw i'm not a "Swiftie" But surely a fan. Im an Arianator actually..
No. It’s not. But thanks for your input. I make it very clear in both the video and the comment section as you can clearly see right above the comment you wrote NOT to categorize any people fit into many “categories”. None of the methods in this video are “bad habits”. Whatsoever. Singing softly, powerfully, with tasteful runs and riffs, or with stacked harmonies is not at all a bad habit. They are vocal expressions to implement in the song. As clearly communicated within the first few minutes of the video. Please watch again. Thanks.
Perfect. That’s how you start! All of us generally are inspired by another artists and so we mimic them to an extent. That’s totally fine. You only can learn your voice once you start to try new things, experiment with new sounds. So copy an artist you like, but then experiment with it and throw in your own flare. In time you will see what your voice truly is.
@@IAMLXGEND Thanks for the advice!! I really enjoyed this video, because I like how you appreciate different vocal styles. I took a couple voice classes but for me I didn't really like them because it was too focused on projection and being loud but even though I have a good range, I realize I'm definitely not suited for that kind of singing.
This was very helpful as I already try to mimic multiple styles for fun but to get a clear idea of the differences and make sense of what I can handle will be great.. plus I found a couple new artists lol
When you were talking about minimalistic voices I was thinking “jhene aikos music is like this” and 5 seconds later you listed her as the female example 😂😂😂 this video is awesome
I think I have a soft voice, since I'm a contralto. It's really hard singing, at school whenever our teacher partners us up, my voice is always covered up by my partner's voice. But it kinda have an advantage for me, since I can express my emotions easily.
@@random-ish7980 high notes don’t cause you to run out of air. Doing high note shouldn’t mean you push air out faster or harder you have to learn to control that air or you will damage your cords.
@@joanbaczek2575 ok but can you classify my voice type tho ? I know for a fact I have a soft voice and can go higher but only when I'm singing a note that I want to have a brighter tone but cant hold it for long I think I can also manipulate my pitch to some extent of where I can change my voice to a very smoky, soft, & girly texture what am I ?
For like singing a song while the artist is singing I blend in perfectly but if I sing by myself it's kinda crappy lol, reason being I tend to sing In my nose and I talk low so I'm not use to loud singing cause I like to sing when there are other sounds in the background. However, sometimes I can change how I sing in my nose but most times I sing in my nose. Majority of ppl who sing will find singing in your nose irritating but most times I dont mind. Btw you got any tips for my sing in my nose thing? Would really appreciate it😅
I’m not to sure but if you do sing through your nose you can try to hold you nose while singing, and try breathing with your diaphragm (this is what I did when I sing through my nose)
I think I either have a soft/minimal style. Can I have both? It’s not that I sing naturally soft, I can sing a bit loud I guess, but my voice always just sounds better softer. Plus, I’m an alto, and all my high notes are in falsetto. I also can’t belt, or do any riffs and runs, so, is it possible to be both?
I’m having trouble accepting my voice it’s very androgynous & jazzy! It’s very soft and chill but my vocal teacher told me that I have a good vibrato and pitch. I definitely needed this video! 😩
You’re welcome. Accept it! The moment you do, the moment you can really begin to use your strengths to your benefit and carve out a unique style of your own.
I’m a 16 year old male and I would say On a scale from 1-10, 10 being powerhouse and 1 being a softy. I’m a 7.5 maybe 8. I can hit hard notes, but not all notes and they could be a cleaner note
Dude i dig your way of thinking. i think wed vibe heavy if we met cause im an artist as well! The fact that you mentioned bslade got my biggest respect cause him, mj and bruno are the a few of my biggest inspirations musically and songwriting wise!!

Remember to never limit yourself with these sort of guidelines because then you’re missing the point of the video entirely, he doesn’t want you to pick one of these and just go with it, but rather for you to be able to explore these vocal differences with more accuracy, no matter how many you associate yourself with.
Great video all up, keep making content that feels genuine!
Finally someone who gets it.
I find myself naturally in tune with singing softer similar to Billie. I can hit higher notes but I don't enjoy singing loudly or belting. I find singing softly gives me more control and I enjoy it much more. I always thought I needed to 'up' my level but this video shows that it's just my voice type. Thanks!
Same I used to feel this way to. I tried so hard for so long to be a powerhouse to the point of even straining my vocal chords each time I sang. It wasn’t up until I realised that I’m a soft singer. I found this out when I would sing songs to myself that I would think of - own lyrics/thoughts - that I could truly hear my own voice. If you ever listen to Brazilian bossa, that’s how I would categorise my voice
I tried to sing softly but I find that I sound 10x better when I project myself. being a powerhouse is so much work cuz then you'll always annoy people lmfao everyone really is talented in their own way and its cool that you can sing softly
Me too or maybe I’m just to shy to sing louder?
that's opposite of me i love powerhouse before i even knew what powerhouse was listening to Bruno got me into singing and he's powerhouse!! and i was in awe with bey's vocals in single ladies that "oh oh oh" part and she's one of my vocal idols and she's powerhouse too like lmao 😂
Saaaame!!
I'm a powerhouse BUT try to be a soft voice so it ends up sounding like a dying cat :,)
Can relate. I sing like I'm in a freaking musical lol nice......
For me, it's the opposite XD
D do nanny remember f thx
Yes
Soo mee😂
I'm more of a soft voice but I wanna be a powerhouse so baddd TwT
This made me feel better about singing because people around me see being able to sing as having a powerhouse voice. I feel validated as someone who has a soft voice. Thank you 🥰
Of course. Don't let anyone or society dictate to you that you must have this huge crazy voice just to be a good singer. You can be the best with a soft, mild mannered vocal.
my problem is that my voice when speaking is fairly quiet and my personality is also mild and shy, but when singing my voice is very strong and powerful. and that sadly doesn’t really match my overall image.
wow me too it sucks a bit lol
Exploit that. Use it to your advantage. Its a wow factor. People think you're shy, then boom. Big voice. It'll work in your favor.
Have you heard of Lawrence? Listen to a song of theirs called "Ain't about you" When I first heard the girls voice I was like whooooa she does not look like she sounds but when I kept listening to them I got used to it. People might get shocked at first but then they get used to it. So like... just sing 🤗
Jessica Sanchez ! She's a runner up in American Idol (idk what season lol). Her fellow contestants specifically said that she's very quiet and shy, but then goes her performing like a powerhouse in the show. Don't be down about it, use it to your advantage. The wow factor will definitely be off the roof 😉
@@shirleytatha8189 it did this to me when I first heard Perrie Edwards sing. She looks like she has the kind of very soft and high voice, but she actually has an extremely powerful and strong voice. You can use it to mind blow people with it!❤❤❤❤❤
I have a soft sweet singing voice. I used to think I couldn't sing because I didn't have powerful vocals like my cousin, but I later learned that we just have different styles. And that's okay! ^_^
I'm not good at singing. But sometimes i sing (when my parents isn't home), and i think i'm good at singing with soft voice, or high voice. I don't know why, but it just sounded better than when i sing with my normal kinda deep voice
Omg same so I'm here to find out what is rly my natural singing voice 😌
It’s probably because of how you want to sound than the way to talk.
I feel like Mariah Carey is a stunt vocalist who records with stacks and can be minimalist a lot on her rnb songs, love her
Mariah is one of the most versatile singers of all time. The way she can flip from soft, but intricate runs to powerhouse belts and whistles to the lowest of lows is unbelievable. Not to mention her incredible songwriting and producing abilities... there's videos on RUclips of her songs stripped apart and you really get an idea of how many meaningful vocal layers she adds to her songs. Even her whistle register is used more so as an instrument rather than her just showing off. Everything has a purpose in her music.
@@heartbreaker3031 I heard the outro to Heartbreaker for the first time and instantly became a Lamb, perfection ❤
@@aidam7822 yessss its so good!! I never know which part to sing along to at the end 'cause they're all so fun to sing haha
Yes. Many artists can do multiple styles.
Lambily 🥰 also yess she’s amazingly talented ❤️
When references the “soft” singing type, it would’ve been more appropriate to put Lana Del Rey
You ever heard of Morissette Amon? She's a legit powerhouse but she can do these soft singing too. She's really versatile.
Her cover of Mariah's Fly Like A Bird shows her soft and powerhouse style.
She is good buh I think Beyonce was the perfect example
I have not but I'm sure she is.
Yup
Beyonce is Queen Morrissette is princess
Me: tries to be a power house
Also me: ends up being soft
Lol
I relate 😂
When i hear my voice from a phone recording I just lose all my confidence :(
Same
Yeah that's true.

@@AikiraBeats bro, u actually sing in the shower? I just play my favorite songs and lip sync ;-; I'm Hella jealous of u
Lol
I sound like a dying sheep
Some of my favorites.
Powerhouse.
Male. Steve Perry, Lou Gramm, Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, Klaus Meine, Mike Reno.
Female: Adele, Celine, Lara Fabian, Whitney, Mariah, Morissette Amon.
Great way to classify vocal quality! 😃
Definitely Freddie Mercury
Bro them 6 dislikes were the ppl who couldn't figure out their voice type lmaooo
is that yoongi in your pic
Hahahahah
@@kookieswithtaes9550 lol yes its yoongi
@@sophiawuzhere ohh well hello ami
is that jimin
Tori kelly has a stunt voice... she's underrated.
i come from a place where it's expected for everyone to have a powerhouse voice. this made me a bit more comfortable about not having it. i don't need a powerhouse voice to get my songs' messages through.
sincerely,
a minimal voice
So glad to hear that because I totally know the struggle having auditioned for American idol and the voice multiple times
Are you from any country in particular? Because I kind of have the same problem lol. In my country, people are known for belting and being powerhouses, but I’m just, not lol.
@@-ailyanne-7089 Yay PH woo~~
How did you know lol
@@-ailyanne-7089 i'm from there too XD
It’s hard for me to find my voice because, I feel like I’m able to sing in similar ranges from like: Beyoncè, Ariana to like deeper voices like Sza and H.E.R. It’s hard for me to find MY voice
That’s normal! I used to use Michael Jackson and sounded exactly like him in my first 2 albums. You WANT to use people as inspiration. That’s how it works. Find who you relate to the most vocally. Copy them. And then in time add your own style and own flare. it’s totally normal.
Sameeeee I feel like I sound more like a ella mai && sza mixed with H.E.R idk
i sound like H.E.R jennie & rose from blackpink and these voices are soo diffrent from eachother
@@lilitje3833 really you got that H.E.R under tone? That's crazy I feel like I got a ella mai or summer Walker under tone
At least u sound like someone I sound like a dying cat
1. Soft voice
2. Minimal voice
3. Powerhouse
4. Stunt voice
5. Stacking harmonies
6. CoD players
Apex would’ve been better on the list.
I can sing along to any genre but when I sing along to my own I have a hard time finding the melody/harmony. I feel like I’m stacked and I have range but I can’t really push it loud
Finding the melody is not the same as finding your range or voice. That has moreso to do with music theory as a melody is a series of notes in succession of each other. And a harmony is corresponding notes to another within a scale/chord.
Being a metal vocalist and having a more agressive vocal style: oh, I'm none of these... right.
Metal vocalist requires power. Aka: powerhouse. Just with grit. Also important to note these are not every type nor are they technically correct terms. They are how I refer to them asz

"It's the story they are telling. She's telling a story about her love with this guy who's...I don't know whatever" 😂😂 love the video man.
I cracked with him singing when the party's over when he's jamming so hard
😝😝
My type of voice? Easy... the "I like to sing but I can't" type of voice 😎
Thank you for posting this. I think I'll start singing in mininalist style because it suits my voice the best. I always wanted to do powerhouse or runs, but I'm not cut out for it. Never really knew about all these different tones until you pointed it out!
Testing to see if you see this comment 1 year later 😂.
I’m a male, gotta a pretty deep voice and usually am relatively soft in my style, however my band and I recently discovered that my years of listening and practicing Muse songs led me to have a really well developed falsetto. It’s kinda become our thing now to go from these soft style lines down in the 2nd octave to really high pitched kinda powerhouse stuff up in the 5th/6th
That’s why it’s so important to keep practicing and pushing limits. You never know when or where your growth will happen.
I was about to say while I started to read your comment if you were hiding behind your voice . I used to do it but I was gon say try falsetto . I’m glad you’re here learning 💜
@@destinixshakur it’s weird reading my comment in hindsight, I had a surgery to remove a really bad blockage that was found in my nasal cavity, the doctors were shocked I could even breathe out of my nose at all. since then my voice has improved tremendously. Pretty much went from less then a 2 octave range when I write that to pushing 3 as of now. It was kind of a miracle that it improved my voice that much.
@@Viper-dz2kw your nose would’ve made you more accurate .
another type of stacking vocals artist is Brandy, her stacks are crazyyyyyy
Yea i talked about her stacking in a previous video already.
Holy moly I'm in love with Jasmine. She's my voice type. But more on stage way than recording. I'm better vocally on stage then recordings.
I'm definitely a powerhouse. My voice teacher has talked about me having a rly big strong voice and my biggest influences are Micheal Jackson and Bruno Mars(from listening to them all the time with my family lmao)
I can even see it in the way my vibrato is bc I imitate mj lol
There you go right there
I'm a guy and a Baritone, but I like to sing in a woman's voice- (Falsetto), and soft like Billie Eilish.
cool, do it
I’m the opposite, I’m female and I prefer singing lower than expected, but I am usually expected to sing like an octave higher than I like to. But, I’m also comfortable singing like A5, as well as F3
I'm a guy, and I really liked singing in falsetto, but when puberty hit me, I literally lost it and whenever I tried to do it, my voice cracks, and then turns into a shriek😂
Same!
@@mashihodpotatoetm4572 same btw are you a teume?
I’m a Tenor but untrained so I can’t really do anything or know what’s best, sometimes I wanna sing like Mike but I also wanna sing like Billie

Oh hi stay
I think there something wrong with RUclips's algorithm , I've only just been suggested this .
I've been saying that for 7 years. Most of my videos hit the algorithm after 8 months.
IAMLXGEND it’s just been recommended to me now, I’m way too far on music/alt youtube to go back now
omg this video is the truth GOD BLESS your soul
Powerhouse 😌 and that’s on being a developing dramatic soprano. See you in the ten years it takes for the dramatic voice to fully develop 🙃
lol see you then my friend
I think mine is a bit of harry styles but without the rock and roll kind of sound.
But last time I recorded myself I sounded HORRIBLE and I just don't know what to do
Keep practicing. You’ll get better with practice and time.
Mine too but I'm a girl. And I sometimes don't hit the notes.
Same but im a girl
I absolutely love the fact that you accentuate the importance of the message in a song
It’s the x factor. Message and emotion.
@@IAMLXGEND i agree completely, I'm learning to use my voice to express my thoughts now
@@IAMLXGEND music is the universal language after all
I've got the minimal voice but I also do soft singing very often too
I’m finding it hard to sing softer I have a voice pretty close to Adele’s
mine is like a weird mix of adele and birdy
Do your thing and sing with that power!
IAMLXGEND thank you :)
Me too.
Came here from another video because it didn't give any audio examples *facepalm* I'm glad you gave specific examples to sing along with and find our style :)
To be fair it’s hard to give examples without getting a copyright claim and even though I still wasn’t able to escape getting claimed I felt it was far more important for people to hear what they should be listening for! 🤙🏾 thanks for giving me a watch
everyone tells me my voice is unique but knowing which beats fits my voice is important when it comes to branding.
Exactly
Bruh. So good. This channel is so dope. Thanks for doin' what you do. Inspiration for sure.
I’m always glad I can help and bring across some good information for the fellow music creators!
i used to be the soft voice but then i suddenly found that "chest voice" from me xd at first it sounded awful 'cause i couldnt control it at all but then i just practised and practised and now, after like a year or so, it actually sounds pretty good but sure i still have a lot to learn and improve
Your discourse on contemporary music is well spoken, and insightful. Much appreciated.
Having a combination of artist with different voice types in a song is a great idea.
huh?
This was great to watch!
I’ve never heard about such classification of the voice, but now am 100% sure that i am powerhouse. Keep up the good work!
I never took a singing class so I’m not really sure
Don’t need to. However you sing naturally and with no strain is where your vocal naturally is.
Dope video. I love this!🔥🔥💯
Taylor swift is literally like the queen of minimalist voice..isn't she?
Yeah I think so too
I agree
yes she is. but she also does powerhouse depends on the song, especially in some of her songs in rep album.. i'm a certified swiftie by the way.
@@dany5622 yup...she does have a powerful voice in some of her songs not in context to higher notes but just feels powerful..btw i'm not a "Swiftie" But surely a fan. Im an Arianator actually..
Yup, I immediately thought of her when he mentioned using a minimalist vocal approach while being a storyteller.
I am struggling to even find my singing voice and what vocal group i fit in
Whatever feels natural and doesn’t require you to strain is where your singing voice is.
No. It’s not. But thanks for your input. I make it very clear in both the video and the comment section as you can clearly see right above the comment you wrote NOT to categorize any people fit into many “categories”. None of the methods in this video are “bad habits”. Whatsoever. Singing softly, powerfully, with tasteful runs and riffs, or with stacked harmonies is not at all a bad habit. They are vocal expressions to implement in the song. As clearly communicated within the first few minutes of the video. Please watch again. Thanks.
Sometimes I see singers singing with both types , it’s honestly amazing to see such versatility even though it’s quite rare .
I'm trying to get a unique voice, but I always end up literally copying Melanie Martinez cause I love her so muchh lmaooo
looool me too, she has a beautiful voice!
Perfect. That’s how you start! All of us generally are inspired by another artists and so we mimic them to an extent. That’s totally fine. You only can learn your voice once you start to try new things, experiment with new sounds. So copy an artist you like, but then experiment with it and throw in your own flare. In time you will see what your voice truly is.
@@IAMLXGEND Thanks for the advice!! I really enjoyed this video, because I like how you appreciate different vocal styles. I took a couple voice classes but for me I didn't really like them because it was too focused on projection and being loud but even though I have a good range, I realize I'm definitely not suited for that kind of singing.
@@EvilSnips lana, melanie, lorde and billie have the same voice, i thought bad guy was by melanie when it came out
Minuka Rodrigo - they don’t though
the nervous type ..like you go quiet when you realized there's people around ..｡･ﾟ･(ﾉ∀`)･ﾟ･｡
This was very helpful as I already try to mimic multiple styles for fun but to get a clear idea of the differences and make sense of what I can handle will be great.. plus I found a couple new artists lol
When you were talking about minimalistic voices I was thinking “jhene aikos music is like this” and 5 seconds later you listed her as the female example 😂😂😂 this video is awesome
😁😉 you are on it! Lol
I think i found my voice is a soft voice because every other voice i do sounds like somebody elses but i dont know really.
There you gooooo. That’s the main sign. What sounds natural FOR YOU
I think I have a soft voice, since I'm a contralto. It's really hard singing, at school whenever our teacher partners us up, my voice is always covered up by my partner's voice. But it kinda have an advantage for me, since I can express my emotions easily.
really me too like I can sing but Its when I try to go too high I run out of air completely, can you classify my voice category
@@random-ish7980 high notes don’t cause you to run out of air. Doing high note shouldn’t mean you push air out faster or harder you have to learn to control that air or you will damage your cords.
@@joanbaczek2575 ok but can you classify my voice type tho ? I know for a fact I have a soft voice and can go higher but only when I'm singing a note that I want to have a brighter tone but cant hold it for long I think I can also manipulate my pitch to some extent of where I can change my voice to a very smoky, soft, & girly texture what am I ?
For like singing a song while the artist is singing I blend in perfectly but if I sing by myself it's kinda crappy lol, reason being I tend to sing In my nose and I talk low so I'm not use to loud singing cause I like to sing when there are other sounds in the background. However, sometimes I can change how I sing in my nose but most times I sing in my nose. Majority of ppl who sing will find singing in your nose irritating but most times I dont mind. Btw you got any tips for my sing in my nose thing? Would really appreciate it😅
I’m not to sure but if you do sing through your nose you can try to hold you nose while singing, and try breathing with your diaphragm (this is what I did when I sing through my nose)
@@ericavega3234 thanks for the tip🙌😅
I think I either have a soft/minimal style. Can I have both? It’s not that I sing naturally soft, I can sing a bit loud I guess, but my voice always just sounds better softer. Plus, I’m an alto, and all my high notes are in falsetto. I also can’t belt, or do any riffs and runs, so, is it possible to be both?
You can have them all.
in terms of vocal type im the shapeshifter at this point, i like a variety of songs lmao
*Beyoncé is the definition of powerhouse.* 💕
when you have a powerhouse voice but you try to make it soft 😏😏
Don’t lol
I messed my powerhouse voice by talking like that too lmao
Get an ovacado smoothie to get that soft voice
This content is super cool, thx
I’m having trouble accepting my voice it’s very androgynous & jazzy! It’s very soft and chill but my vocal teacher told me that I have a good vibrato and pitch. I definitely needed this video! 😩
You’re welcome. Accept it! The moment you do, the moment you can really begin to use your strengths to your benefit and carve out a unique style of your own.
I can’t identify my voice type because my voice sucks and that’s all I can focus on 😂
Lol gotta look beyond your own perception
IAMLXGEND How can you tell if your voice sucks because it just does or because you’re not used to it/it’s very different?
Does it sound bad? That’s how.
Different doesn’t = bad. Just compare yourself against horrible American idol auditions lol. Do you sound better than they do?
Can we talk about beautiful your voice is!!! Dude you sound AMAZING!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Oh wow I'm a powerhouse like I always showcase the different colors of my voice whenever I sing, but on a bad day I'd go to soft type.
You’re versatile
I’m a 16 year old male and I would say On a scale from 1-10, 10 being powerhouse and 1 being a softy. I’m a
7.5 maybe 8. I can hit hard notes, but not all notes and they could be a cleaner note
When I sing I always sing differently depending on the song its not that I am copying the original singer it's just it feels right
I've always been told I have the fullness and timbre of Tom Jones but the mellowness, articulation, and minimalism of Post Malone.
That is a super interesting mix lol
Dude i dig your way of thinking. i think wed vibe heavy if we met cause im an artist as well! The fact that you mentioned bslade got my biggest respect cause him, mj and bruno are the a few of my biggest inspirations musically and songwriting wise!!
