any belting advice?

Use support from your diaphragm and use vocal exercises

As well as breathing techniques

I'm not a teacher but

I have been doing this a long time

I'm not a teacher but I really recommend trying to say the word you want to belt in the most comfortable way as if you're just speaking normally. Let's say the word is 'and.' Then, sustain the word when you say it (don't sing yet, just say it and sustain the word) like 'Aaaaand.'

Now say the word again, in a comfortable note you reach, sustain it while heighten the note gradually. Make sure you're using the same placement when you're just talking normally.

I can belt somewhat

It's like a powerful mixed voice sort of "yelling" projection. It requires good technique and you have to know how to properly balance air flow and resistance. If you push too hard will crack.

Also breaaaath throughhhh your diaghramm.

I highly recommend not pushing your larynx while belting or you could lose your voice permanently

One of my buddies did that lmao

He had to get surgery

This happened to me now I’m raspy af so yes try not to belt if ur not really well prepared for it. I don’t care to sing professionally so idgaf but if you do plan on making a career out of it then yes try to stick to your comfort range unless you get more training on your belts.

Also am I hearing dissonance in that recording or is it just me
