Vocal Nodules: Vocal nodules are small, callous-like growths that develop on the vocal cords due to repeated strain or overuse of the voice. They can cause the vocal cords to become stiff and less flexible, making it difficult to produce certain types of sounds, especially when singing loudly or forcefully (belting). Nodules typically affect the middle part of the vocal cords where they come together to produce sound. Belting vs. Whistling Register: Belting: Belting involves singing high notes loudly and forcefully. This requires the vocal cords to come together firmly and efficiently vibrate to produce a strong sound. For someone with nodules like Mariah Carey, this can be challenging because the nodules prevent the vocal cords from closing and vibrating properly, leading to discomfort and strain. Whistling Register: Whistling is a very high register where the vocal cords are stretched very thin and only the edges of the cords vibrate. This register operates differently from belting; it places less stress on the vocal cords' middle section where nodules typically form. Therefore, singers with nodules may find it easier and less uncomfortable to produce sounds in the whistle register because it avoids the strained areas.

And Mariah Carey did not develop nodules through singing. She always had it since she was a child. Yet she can still sing amazingly, she knows how to use her voice even with the nodules(that's a true vocalist). Imagine if she did not have them

@@1amThatGuy That's just what her mother told her, it's not like she went to the doctor to get checked whens he was a kid for nodules. But if we're going with she had nodules since she was a kid, she's attributed them to her singing in a super high tone (which later turned into her whistle register). Her mother even told her as a kid it would hurt her. So yea, it kinda was from singing. You don't just get nodules at 3 years old for no reason.

@@strangerthings88 Educate myself? Dont be insulting. I said you don't get them from nothing! And I said if she got them as a kid, which she never got a doctor's opinion on as a kid, then she probably got them from using the part of her voice that she uses now to hit the whistle register. Read because words mean things.

Talking about the nodules thing, she says she always had them, since a kid, some people say that maybe she overworked her voice or yelled/cried a lot as a baby, the thing is that when they are bigger her whistles are better and the belting isnt there as good, and when they're smaller, the opposite.

People are much harder on her nowadays because of the inconsistencies of her voice and they keep her in high regard expecting her to be able to sing like she is 20 which is just crazy and sad. Mariah once said "it's like I'm the only one who has to make 5 million comebacks but when it's someone else it's just oh OK you did a lil thing and move on" something like that lol.

I don't know why my other comment ain't showing. Please react to "Mariah carey fat, juicy, girthy belt compilation part 2" it just shows she literally given her ALL to the fans with her voice.

So the nodules are like 2 tiny growths on the vocal chords and they help her reach whistle easily. But with belting because of aging and overworking the voice, the nodules make it way more difficult now to reach upper belts with they become thicker or inflamed.
