Why is lil wayne voice croaky

So apparently it emits frequencies that make your mind subliminally make your voice raspy over time. Link To The Video. You could probably even fall asleep listening to it.

You could do the methods above to break down your vocal cords. Then, once they are broken down a little bit, you can record any songs you have written with that voice. Eventually, it would get closer and closer to being your permanent rap voice, plus you would have a much larger understanding of how to manipulate and use it.

This idea comes from the times I have been sick. When I get sick, I actually have a much different but really cool voice. Fortunately, I am only sick once every few years. The congestion from the mucus in my nose AND throat creates a raspy, partially nose-plugged vocal. I tell this story so you can see in your head other ways that your voice can change for the better. Singing loudly for a long time before your performance will put stress on your chords; that might help.

Such as Pro Tools or any other software where you are primarily editing audio. If you can find the perfect chain of plug-ins to apply to your vocals that you can use anytime you record a track, you now have a unique voice unlike anyone else. Build it up, practice it, rap with it. Their audience already likes their voice the way it is. With me approaching and showing you the method from a starter point, you can build your entire rap style around this method and master it in the next year.

Now what I can do is recommend some plugins you can mess with as a base to get you started and then you start experimenting from there. Video example of Antares Aspire Evo Effects. That combined with raspy voice exercises, and you are on your way to the digital answer of how to make your voice raspy. You just have to mess with the large range of features the plugin has. If you want to make your voice raspy toss all of them into chains and mess with the sends and levels and everything you can to see how it sounds on your voice.

Yes, this will take time. Everything great takes time. If it was that easy everyone would be doing it. But if you take the time and find the coolest chain for your voice with the plugins you will be the guy that everyone loves for his cool unique voice. People will all wonder how you did it when really it was just practice and a bunch of plugins at very tiny increments that all added up to create your cool voice along with you practicing building your natural voice.

I also wanted to provide information inside of this to help you understand how the voice really works. When you can understand how the voice is actually created in your throat, you can actually learn to manipulate it easier and faster.

It will also help you understand what is going on inside of your body when you do the above techniques to attain a raspier voice. Similar to how if you understand how to write a song, you can fix issues in the song much faster than someone who is writing a song for the first time. Because you understand the structure of the song, how it works, and how it is all put together.

It would be very difficult for me to explain through words and just pictures how a voice box works, how your vocal cords work, and how your larynx works and all that together.

So instead I went and watched a ton of very informational and cool videos that you can watch to also understand more. An inside look at how vocals work while a singer is singing At you see some crazy shit happen.

This is another inside look at the vocal cords working as someone sings but this one is pretty cool in its own way than the previous video. Finally, this video is a much more technical look at how your voice works and is pretty cool.

We get to listen, imitate, assimilate, explore and innovate. Now THAT is cool. As I previously stated, How can you sound like yourself if you don't know how to sound like anybody else? At the very least it can show what you DON'T want to do. Reason: Grammar. I try not to brag about it. Wes I'll use your speech analogy. As If im Aries Spears or something? Come one Wes that doesn't even make sense period. Now rap style, fast, slow, punch lines the things you mentioned thats what they should imitate.

Thats like saying no one has the ability to speak without hearing someone else speak first not language speaking. People are born with the ability to speak period. You can teach someone math without them having a pre notion of a mathematician or previously knowing a mathematician.

Same principle. I'm saying try to imitate sound and style. Because the sound is the style and the style is the sound. People are not born with an ability to speak. Its a learned skill. Take a look at someone with special needs that impair their speech.

They can't speak because their brain deficiencies make it really difficult for them to learn like we do. For all I know their brains could be garbling the messages that get sent to their brain.

Also, if you do a google search for "how do babies learn how to speak" much of what comes up are articles that say babies learn not only by hearing but by reading lips and the like too. Wait, wait, wait wild style lol. This is what I be talkin bout So Pimp C and Booise shouldnt change they style?

And the young dude should change? Cause his voice raspy? Why cause he not famous? How you think other rappers made it? And if you do don't change your voice embrace what you have all the way along road to the top. Pimp did it Boosie did it, hell mystical did it that nigga yell on every track! Its and da nigga still yellin lol and sellin lol. Wayne went from rapping with a normal voice to a cartoon and you know it. And they got the same style which I dont agree with. I guess we just have differing view points.

I believe a rapper needs to be an entertainer and storyteller first and for most, and if that means they have to "get into character" I say do it. I'll sum it up with this. If you need another rappers voice or need to change your voice so it doesn't sound like YOU!

Come on Wes there is no way anyone should want to sound like someone. This is what your saying casue you jus said it in your post. Rapping with punch lines is a style, not a sound. Style and Sound are NOT the same. This is wrong. So soon as a baby is born someone has to teach it how open its mouth and make sounds? No it docent. As I said not language that is learned im not talking bout that. Im talking bout open mouth to make noise or even speak NOT language just to speak.
