So, I am a "naturally gifted" singer, I really LOVE singing and I get a lot of compliments on my voice, but I've always been ashamed at how much I struggled with riffs/runs. This video explained it super well and just watching it and warming up once I can already hear a huge improvement. Thank you so much for your wonderful video!
3:23 if you can't do it just slow down, give yourself more time for your voice to calibrate the steps 4:45 with a different melody 5:15 take up the runs
OH MY GOODNESS!!! You guys! This is starting to work!! I just sang it and it actually sounded better ! Here's are some tips: I recommend getting your mixed voice first, I tried this before I could mix my voice. Didn't work. Every lil note that comes out of your mouth, imagine it's like a little blob of paint, sing it so that your voice gets used to how every note sounds. Than add speed, THAN smooth it out!! Imagine you're smearing all the paint together and make it smooth! I don't know why that last part helped me, I'm going to keep practicing! :)
I admire this but can't stand listening to riffs and runs! I don't know why. Too much heavy metal I guess. I do, however, have to learn it so I hope I become more motivated and open-minded. Thank you so much!
I'm here for all of these tutorials. Thank you so much for continuing to post such valuable tips. Also love to see how well Tara, Jeremie and the other awesome coaches get a long so well.
I love singing which is why I’m here. I always get compliments on how beautiful my voice and my tone but I can’t do runs and riffs. Even though a lot of artists say you don’t need to do runs and Riffs to be a talented singer I really wish to learn to do so.
Wow, I was just about to search your channel for a riff/run video and here is a video uploaded today! Description was either typed on a smartphone or alcohol was involved.
@@Tarasimonstudios Hi👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾 The description says that this is teaching us how to belt.. Typo? Haha.. You are AWESOME! I'm buying your program. You are so practical in your approach. You definitely teach "smartly"! Love ya!
Hey Tara and team, thank you so much for your videos :)) I've been singing since .. well.. always :D , and actually always thought I'm not doing too bad. People always loved to hear me sing.. well, since I'm watching your videos I almost feel like a beginner again. There's so much more to learn, also with you I learned to STOP STRAINING MY VOICE finally after 20 years haha. Runs have always been my kryptonite, I've never really been working on in, was happy with a couple thrills, and that was it. I'm writing this before I watched the video, I already know it's gonna help me HEAPS! I've been properly practising singing since only a couple days now (like really consciously practising) and your videos opened a new world for me. THANK YOU for all your work you guys put into the videos and thanks in advance for this one !! Cheers and all the best xx
Loved this video. Would you say that this is vocal flexibility? I am a junior high choir teacher and my students are always asking how to do things. I just always refer them to making sure that they are warmed up correctly and not pushing anything. I emulate the things they ask but during this pandemic and teaching online all the time I refer them to lots of good warm ups. This was a great way to get them doing something they want to be able to do, but also show them that singing on pitch comes first!!
I can hear that you change your voice tone when you do the quick run, what is it that you're doing? It's almost like a baa, or tremble or tremolo tone. Just want to know what it is because I always struggle with the quick stuff!
hi , I would like to know your reaction about Iranian music Have you ever listened to Iranian music? singer : mohsen Yeganeh Song : I promise you A great pop music Singer: Yas Song: az chi begam ( what can I say ) A deep rap music Singer : sirvan khosravi Song: I love life An energetic pop music If you want me to give you a UA-cam link to the songs ?
Idk how to do slow riffs/runs, I lose breath quickly. I'm very good with quick runs but very bad with slow ones :( I don't got good breath control too and I also lose pitch when doing runs/riffs. They also sound too connected/slurry sometimes when i'm tired. I tried doing this exercise buuuuut my larynx lowers at the last note of the descending and it hurts :( also at the toggle part when doing the lower one. My larynx tends to lower most of the time even when i'm not trying to reach a very low note. Must be because I got so obsessed with low notes before and kept strengthening my lower register that my larynx lowers most of the time now. It hurts after a few hours of singing and i cant sing later on the day. I take vocal rests too but the same singing process ruins it again. Now that i've learned more vocally and singing in a healthy placement, it hurts cus my larynx got used to being lowered when i was a kid. Any exercise for a stubborn larynx that hurts itself? Idk if I explained it perfectly but i can comment more to explain-
Pls react to Anthony Ramos preforming his newest single "stop"! He has a music video for it, but knowing you I'm pretty sure youd like a live! So, just letting you know, he performed it for Kelly Clarkson, but my favourite is when he performed it for James Corden!
I agree with the folks who have said the background music is bad news. I found myself struggling to listen to what you were saying whenever the music was playing
Two suggestions. If you want to review a Singer with a lot textures Try “Am i the one” by Beth Hart. In Europe there’s a musical that’s not big in the US, but it’s a huge success on the west end, and I hoped you would review some singers from it. “Everybody’s Talking about Jamie” and the songs are: And you don’t even know it. Wall in my head. He’s my boy. Thank you. :D
I suggest people do not use all the notes of a chord in a run. Do the pentatonic scale to train your ears since all R&B runs don’t always do all the notes of a chord. Most who warm up with 1 thru 6 notes end up using those notes which doesn’t make it sound R&B or gospel. Do 1,23,5, 6. Skip 4. Don’t do what they are playing.

Hey I’m not a professional singer but if this works I will take it! Just wondering, what is a mixed voice? I really wanna sound better.

I love singing and am pretty good at it, but riffing has always been my weakness. This will surely help, thank you :)).
Riffing is hard

T Swift is a great example of a music artist that made it without the fancy riffs and runs.
Wow, I was just about to search your channel for a riff/run video and here is a video uploaded today! Description was either typed on a smartphone or alcohol was involved.
Lol! Why do you say that?

Xavier what are you doing here?

Very good point about singing discrete tones during the exercise rather than muddying and slurring the notes.

This is the first video that really explains riffs and runs to me... thank you so much!!
2:49
That’s actually how I sound
👁👄👁
😂😂😂
same oof
How oh how I wish I were blessed with y'alls voices.
Practice.
It's not a blessing, it's hard work.
Hard work and understanding it seems. I'm a have to start training my vocals in the near future
I love your videos. They really help. ☺️❤️
Her voice is so beautiful *-* so sharp and Deep in the same time xD
The intro made me feel what am I doing here oh god super professional 😱😱😃
2:48 Omg I literally sound exactly like that! My throat also starts hurting as soon as I even start trying to do it, even if it's slow
I love the comments on these types of videos 😂
I find that when i do the best riffs and runs it feels effortless in my throat as opposed to bad ones where i push with my throat and it tightens.
I can do these riff/run tutorials but in an actual song or just improv, I can’t?
"nice and crispy" idk why but that made me smile so hard lol
The intro was great 😆 🤣
i literally clicked like before the video even began cuz i just knew that whatever was going to be said was going to be important
ok she saying is gonna be the student and him doing that face made my day hehehe loved him the entire video
Sheesh y’all open up giving a girl chillz 🥶😍😍 gorgeous voices

Could you please react to Davina Michele singing in NikkiTutorials video the 15 Minutes makeup singalong challenge
can you do a tutorial on how to stop singing from your throat
My vocal coach told me to make the sound resonate from your mask not throat
@@thabomabuya6457 mask?
Does the coach Jeremy have a channel ?
I sound like a lamb. 😶 Very ba-ah-ah-ah-ahd 🐑 🤣🤣🤣🫶🏽💙
Thank you so much for this video!I think that it would be better if the background music is removed, that would help me to focus more.
How do you sing that solo JC sang in I Want You Back - Nsync. Is it the same skills you taught in this video?
Two suggestions.

In Europe there’s a musical that’s not big in the US, but it’s a huge success on the west end, and I hoped you would review some singers from it.
“Everybody’s Talking about Jamie” and the songs are:

Thank you. :D
Tara react to Fifth Harmony's Destiny's Child Tribute please! (Greatest Hits ABC) Would love to a breakdown of the whole. Thank u
React “Fallin”by Why dont We they are amazing and you would like their song i know it,
Much Love 💚
But what's a difference between riffs or runs or tell us definition of each one plizz
“16 seconds ago”
I suggest people do not use all the notes of a chord in a run. Do the pentatonic scale to train your ears since all R&B runs don’t always do all the notes of a chord. Most who warm up with 1 thru 6 notes end up using those notes which doesn’t make it sound R&B or gospel.
