Hi!
I’m a 14 female singer; and I’ve been trying to belt like the lead singer of Slayer. I can do it well, but I can’t sustain it and I’m afraid that I’ll mess up my vocal chords.
I’m pretty sure to achieve the rough sound, the singer smokes and drinks but I don’t want to conform like the rest of my generation. I do not want to drink or smoke. How can I belt like him without having to smoke, and without destroying my vocal chords? And is there a secret to how I should use my diaphragm? Thanks!
go to voice lessons. I know it sounds stupid but a lot of singers do it and it helps.
