Time for my own Mujin Service - barely LOOL. If you lot don't engage with this i'm going to be SO upset :D

I'm so glad I finally managed to record a session of ours and I haven't had a singing lesson for over 2 years.

It's an extremely taxing process as you can see by the DAMPNESS on my t shirt! A lot of it comes from the mental fortitude of remembering so many technical things all at once but also breathing a lot.

The first 15/20 mins is basically just warming up and getting used to my breath support. First you take deep breaths and breathe out slowly then you do it with puffy cheeks and then you add vocalisation. After doing those 4/5 times each, we move to doing sirens with puffy cheeks to get the cords warmed up!

We then move to scales but I wasn't really feeling them like I have done in the past. We then get to SINGING!

It's crazy hearing how my voice is immediately freeer after the warm up. I WISH I could carry the clarity and richness from that first "I better fall back" throughout my ENTIRE range but that'll take loads of practice and time that I have fallen behind on.

In terms of my singing and skill i'm usually around 40% satisfied by my own standards. I know I could sound and BE so much better but you have to start from the basics and practice constantly until you're producing the sound you want with the right technique and POSTURE and some soul. That goddamn posture. Looking back I can see it even more so and will remember it next time.

Enjoy!

I’m honestly not very musically inclined but your posts have always helped me learn more about and appreciate music. I cant wait to watch this video because I find stuff like this so interesting and I genuinely love learning from you and your content! 🙌

From "Bitch, let me live!" to "Ooohhh I sound good, bitch!" YASSS!! I love this, Micah! More of this! Thank you for this!!! ❤️ Wdym I get to watch you react/analyze and do this as well? And not me doing the warm ups with you at 4AM in my room 😭 Lol 😂😅 I remember one of the lessons I learned from our Musical Director is not to think about what you look like when performing. It sounds daunting at first, especially someone like me who grew up with a lot of physical insecurities. But having to learn this and breaking that habit of always wanting to look good when performing was such a freeing moment! 💕

HAHAHA omg i'm screaming at you doing it at 4am! You're so welcome and thanks such good advice thank you! Cos then you can get out of your own head

moo

oh this is so INTERESTING i LOVEEE THISSSSSS

Literally no one

It's crazy how much work goes into getting the voice ready for singing before the actual singing. As someone who has never had a vocal lesson before, I never actually appreciated the preparation; breath support, posture, coordination AND trying to remember all those things at the same time. Jake is too good. I think I would cry at those scales whew. The difference it makes though is insane. I really enjoyed seeing the process behind someone else's voice. It makes me appreciate the work that goes into developing the voice. I'm gonna have to come back here everytime i wanna warm up.

Thank you!! Yess it really is a lot of work and i always sleep like a LOG after

It's funny I'm so used to seeing you sit for reactions that I didn't think about how tall you are lol. Really love this, not only an insider look at a piece of what an artist must do to develop their instrument but just seeing you (and Jake) in a whole new personal and creative way. Fun, raw, fresh.

i'm not a vocal coach or expert by any means but i feel like you have such a deep, resonant voice, and the songs you were singing have you in a sort of awkward inbetween pocket for your range. i think it would be cool to hear you try singing some teddy pendergrass or barry white. some classic soulful rnb baritones

I don’t know a single thing about singing, but I found this so fun and interesting to watch! AND DAMN you have to think about so much to create the best sound with just one word. . I felt mentally tired watching you and I wasn’t even the one doing it lol.

gjfdthrdtdtdtydfytf this

Koko3op

Thanksss! It's really hard to find songs but i think i also find it boring not singing near that awkward inbetween since most songs are around there and the melodies are more fun

jane

wait omg I LOVE THIS this was so fun to watch

Sam

As a fellow baritone, I really related to this video. People usually pay good money for this kind of insight, so I’m super grateful you shared it for free cause us poor whores cannot afford a singing lesson lol. I also really appreciate how open you are about showing your own faults. I’m definitely saving these warmups to try myself. I usually feel intimidated by original keys, esp in male songs because theyre usually too high, but I sang along with you and following your lead helped me realize they're much more accessible than they sound to my ears. You know your bitch loves to take everything down an octave but this has given me more confidence in trying to build my range to accomodate singing out of my comfort zone. Can't wait for more content like this.

Koko3op

Omg i love this so much!! Yess when you're warmed up you'd be surprised how much more you can do vocally !

jai jai

this is everything!!!! would love to see more content like it, you ate!!

I’ve always wanted to try singing lessons, but after watching this I’m not sure I have the patience and drive for the result I’d want 🤣 but this was v interesting and cool

Koko3op
