As a singer for 3 years smiling is by far a cheat code in life in general. Whenever we're happy we smile, whenever we sing good we smile. To enjoy anything you want, throw on a smile.

[@ALTROTOPIA]

couldn't have said it better

[@TheRealSandman]

This is something I've really been picking up on as of late. A lot of the time I took relaxation in my jaw & face, but sagged my cheeks, I've noticed once I compartmentalise them so relaxing my jaw & lifting cheeks slightly has helped out.

[@Mista808]

So Whitney Houston "I Will Always Love You" is a terrible song because she wasn't smiling. Makes sense. Some of the best singing I've ever heard in my life is when the artist is completely broken inside and when you can hear the absolute despair in their voice! Nothing to do with smiling either!

[@kim784]

Most of the time The Weeknd uses mixed voice, falsetto is only for the really high notes! Would love a video on how to develop your mixed voice high end! Much love!

[@cursedaccount6067]

i second this.

[@Mista808]

Nobody sings Falsetto 100% of the time. It would be horrendously bad if they did!

[@blankspacebaby]

Yea you valid bro i fw u

[@joshualopez5797]

You don't want to stretch your neck to sing. It adds tension. Much Love.

100% true

[@Demida148]

I don't wanna be Weeknd, i wanna bring similar vibes like him, just like how he has Michael Jackson vibes.

[@mikansan8216]

@@EdiomoabasiIdung-fp7fw i've been told similar... it sucks when people misconstrue inspiration for obsession. Don't let people keep you from being inspired! Don't let others stop you from being the best you that YOU want to become.

Do you have any other vocal Exercises, to sound like him? For head voice/falsetto?

[@gavingamez-x6s]

love theweeknd so much xoxo peace and love to theweeknd hope to see you soon on January 25 2025

[@ralfireps2421]

this was great. thank youman

[@ALTROTOPIA]

anything for those who support me man 🙏

[@Darri_VasquezRNP]

My voice is naturally high, and I’m tenor what exercises would you recommend to blend chest voice & head voice? I’m currently working on my falsetto & head voice for higher notes & chest voice for low notes

[@ALTROTOPIA]

As dumb as this might sound doing a “meow” sound while singing up a scale really helped me. It focuses on your mixed voice.

[@Darri_VasquezRNP]

@@ALTROTOPIA what scale would you recommend 5 note scale or octave repeat? While the nay vocal exercise focused on ascending to falsetto/head voice rather then a mix I’ll give it a try.

[@ALTROTOPIA]

@@Darri_VasquezRNP I do octave repeat

[@Darri_VasquezRNP]

@@ALTROTOPIA what about for falsetto & head voice?

[@Keviekev115]

@@ALTROTOPIAmeow goes from high to low. I can see how that helps “blend” the voice. Like just saying meow feels like a mini scale

[@Xorealosu]

BRUH I LOVE THAT SONG 1:30

[@ALTROTOPIA]

It’s tied with Love in the Sky for my favourite Weeknd song xp

[@moto563]

Am a light baritone just beginning with range from c3 to a4 is it possible for me to sing like weekend type songs?

[@Andrewskiz]

ik this is 2 yrs later, but what is the website you are talking abt by any chance

[@FirstLast-mh9vj]

The chest voice is created by thick vocal cords.

[@ChiragR-007]

Thanks man

[@ALTROTOPIA]

I was baritone for a while until I kept training my voice. Now I’m a tenor.

[@sinekhayamngcangceni800]

Giveon is a baritone but he has an amazing falsetto so don't be discouraged

[@ChiragR-007]

Can you please make a video on how to learn to sing on ur own

[@skinnybuddhaboy]

5:30 - You gave that example as how your voice used to sound moany and weird, but I thought that sounded amazing and very ethereal and atmospheric, and I'm a very harsh critic of music seeing that I think that 98% of music these days is shit, lol!

[@ALTROTOPIA]

I mean hey I’m glad you liked it! 😂

[@josetur4948]

what do you think its more difficult to sing exactly like amy winehouse or like the weeknd?

[@ALTROTOPIA]

brother that’s comparing apples and oranges💀💀

[@LetsPlayArcanium]

As an audio engineer It’s recommend that you don’t try to mimic voices that your range is nowhere near. If your voice register is low your range is bass meaning you can hit lower notes, if your voice register is high then your high alto, tenor, soprano. If you try to hit notes that aren’t in your register you run the risk of damaging your throat and vocal chords since a lot of people watching these videos don’t use their diaphragm correctly to sing. Learn how to use your head voice and falsetto if you want to least have fun singing the songs you love that aren’t in your register. Use your voice register to find your range and your own style that’ll improve yourself in knowing what your limits and ranges are

[@marquisjohnson5888]

can you do a video on how to sing like kurt cobain?

[@ALTROTOPIA]

my voice is not capable of that brav 😭

[@syntrexfpv1347]

One important thing I think needs to be specified that other vocal coaches have said. Yes you want an open mouth but you do not want to smile. This can create a different cadence and tone that does not sound good (whiney) Its better to when practicing push your hands against your cheeks to prevent you lifting your cheek bones. Keep a round mouth not a smile mouth if that makes sense.

[@rafaeljannotti3002]

The weekend often smiles for high notes, smiling only creates a whiny effect if the back of the tongue is very raised and soft pallate is lowered. Its all about balance. The weeknd technique consists of a lowered back of the tongue combined with a moderate smile. The lowered tongue gives extra darkness to the sound, preventing the whiney tone when smiling. In the opposite side, some singers lift the back of the tongue alot and lower the pallate, so in addition to this smiling alot would cause the higher overtones to be exagerated and thus resulting in a whiney tone. Beware of teachers with classical background that preach too much against smiling technique, I fell into that trap for a long time and that really hindered my progress. Many great singers employ smiling, at least to a certain degree. You can find videos of pavarotti giving a slight smile and lifting his cheeks (in moderation) to hit the top notes, also many other great tenors lifted their cheeks a bit for high notes. The fully lowered cheeks for high notes isnt optimal as it can bring mud to the sound.
