Hello, I have been writing rap for a while and basically started with music because I wanted to be a rapper. Then I also decided to get my voice developed and started going to a coach.
Now that I'm alittle more advanced in the subject I still have something I'm not sure of.
When I sing (when I sing right of course), my throat and vocal chords are fine.
When I rap, they aren't. rapping makes me feel like I should be almost talking and automatically I hit the vocal chords and it hurts..
(I didn't pay attention to that back when I was just starting, who knew it would be a problem ^^)
I started paying attention to rappers. I have noticed that some of them clearly follow a few notes, but others just seem to be pressing their vocal chords and shouting.
Don't rappers use the same technique that singers do? (just with MUCH fewer notes)
Do only the good ones do? Or am I all wrong about it and all rappers just kill their throats? cuz that just wouldn't seem right
