5 simple but effective tips to sing better! 

Joe isn’t lying. Stevie Wonder composed a lot of his songs in the key of Eb also his zodiac sign Taurus no cap check his songs. You find chords that compliment your deepest core of your being. I’ll give Joe credit for at least being cognizant of these tips from one guitarist singer songwriter to another. Even John Mayer said if it doesn’t compliment my voice or inner core I scratch the song and move on

i’m no guru. no celebrity vocal coach. just a guy who loves to sing and wants to share what he learned along the journey.

5 tips: 1. keep your back straight & chin down (0:30) 2. stop opening your mouth so wide (1:19) 3.change the pronunciation of words (2:14) 4. intentionally create dynamics (4:05) 5. choose the right song and key for your voice (6:28) Thank you Joe!

Thank you for improving my shower performance and weekend cleaning covers! 🤣🤣 Seriously, great information, Joe!

I like how you encourage us to bring out the best in our voices rather than to be the best singer there is, there's a lot of difference in that and what you said gives people self-confidence

Can I just say that I love your aesthetic? This video felt like I came over to a friend's house to talk about music, great tips too!

These are good ass tips, and with the last one for sure was something I learned with experience. "Listen to your own voice. Chris Stapleton has no business singing Justin Bieber and vice versa" was what my vocal coach taught me, and I don't agree 100% but I get what she was saying. I grew up listening to Alicia, Mariah, Adele, and other great female Singers. So when I started to sing I wanted to have the range and strength they did, and with alot of practice I actually learned to imitate them pretty well and learned alot of skills, but it still sounded fake. So When I started singing in my own register and in my own voice I noticed the couple years of singing so high set me back in learning to sing where I should be. My vocal coach told me I should try singing deep blues or soul music instead of pop and r&b music when practicing The quality and tone and color of my voice has gotten so much better. And I even found a love for true blues music. I can sing lower than I thought I could, and my vocal control is WAYYYYY BETTER.

the tip about not opening my mouth wider than if i was just talking normally, that's probably the best tip I've gotten from anything on RU-vid so far when it comes to singing better, thanks dude!

This helped. It’s not a matter of singing to sound like others. It is a matter of bringing out the best part of your voice. Knowing your voice and style makes sound more natural and controlling of how you sing and the songs you choose❤️

My tip: Sing from the heart, whatever song it is. Strong conviction is powerful.

With a voice like that, it doesn't matter what you do, it'll sound cool. You're hugely lucky! I love it.

thank you! the way you explain it is so clear and simple. powerful. btw, your singing is amazing.

I've only ever heard you sing before. You are a great teacher! Inviting, clear to follow, deep in ideas.

here because im jealous of frank ocean

As a vocal coach, you are mostly spot on with these tips. A lot of this I tell my students, even down to the exact wording on some of this! Great lesson. 👍🏾👍🏾😊

Joe is our music teacher and our favorite musician, we better start paying this man 🤣🤣

Thank you mentioning the changes in volume. It usually goes unnoticed by people new to singing. And regarding pronunciation, I was taught to yes, round out the vowels and also to soften the r's and e's. They hit the ear too harshly when they're pronounced hard.

Your channel alone has given me the inspiration and confidence to finally buy a guitar. Videos like this are so helpful..keep doing what your doing man love the videos!!

I want to tell you that this short video has helped me improve my singing voice. Thank you for sharing this with the world

Great video! Some wonderful points and really interesting to hear your process! Particularly vowel modification and dynamics are things often overlooked, but so important :) As a vocal coach myself, I wanted to point out that how much you open your mouth is very dependent on context, opening it more isn’t necessarily always wrong, but it’s great you’ve found something that works for you ☺️a big thank you also for your guitar tutorials, I’ve been slowly working my way through your frank ocean cover and just love your chord voicings!

"Allow you to show off what you already have" 🥺❤️much appreciated

This is the most simple, informative and helpful vocal advice I’ve ever gotten… thank you sm.

Thank you so much Mr. Solomon. You're voice is like the softestvelvety buttery goodness, and the fact you took the time to make these helpful videos for dreamers like us really shows your character and I was already a fan, but much much respect, Again, thank you so much, greatly appreciated, and many blessings to you and yours.

Insane how you packed in so much crucial advice into one video. I struggled with some of the stuff you talk about for so long. Particularly picking songs and changing keys. I would want to sound so good at a specific song and would get annoyed I wasn’t, when really my voice just wasn’t really well suited for that song. And for changing keys, I only realized this way to far in my journey. But eventually you realize even artists will play their songs 1 full step down from the recorded version sometimes if the powerful notes are at the top of their range. Knowing how to pick the right key and make a song my own has made me a “better” singer almost overnight, it’s amazing. Thanks for sharing!

Great advice. I’ve played guitar for many years. Recently I’ve been working on singing, sometimes it’s a struggle, but I’m improving. Thanks for the positivity!

Another good tip is to record yourself. It can be painful at first, but you’ll notice so many things you never noticed without the recording. For example, when I first started singing I pronounced things way too loosely and had too much nasality.

Great content, I’ve come across so many videos that have long intros or the person teaching is talking in an over-peppy customer service voice. I love how calm and to the point you are 👏

This content is so well put together and inspiring. The fact that you do not back out from sharing your process and the thoughts behind it, the lessons learned, even though it narrows down the audience reached and fucks with your algorithm a tiny bit. Very impressive work, thank you so so much!

Thank you for this! All of these subtle tips really helped me out! I’m a guitar player trying to improve my vocals for when I lead worship at church! Thank you for your help and you then channel!😃🙏🏽

Changing the pronunciation is such a good tip. Thank you. Our voice have a unique way of sharing the message it’s wants to with others.

Learnt so much. "Take me somewhere"...I never looked at it that way. Yet, truly that's what I experience when I listen to great music like yours.

My man, I’m learning this song now just because of you. Respect to you sir, you have a great voice!!

i hope to see more tutorials from you ✨ this literally what I'm looking for

Great tips, and I'll be immediately incorporating them. The chin down to hit the higher notes is incredibly helpful to me to hit this e I was having trouble getting to in a song I just wrote that's the best I've written in 15 years of songwriting. Now on to tracking the demo!

This makes so much sense! Oftentimes, I find myself not really getting what people are trying to explain with singing, but these tips really do live up to the video's title! I've been trying to learn how to sing for the longest time, because I aspire to become a singer, but I don't have access to coaches or classes. I've been looking for these types of tutorials online, and I'm glad I found this one. :)

Can we appreciate for a moment how visually beautiful this video is? I’m so calm right now after looking at this warm soft colors

Talking and teaching like an actual human being. Your videos are priceless man

I've checked in with you time to time since your hallelujah cover like 5 years ago. I just heard you on a song with ANDY MINEO. It's been amazing watching your career grow and continue to do so. Nothin but prayin and rooting for you brotha!

This should be a series! Quality Content and very informative! Good Job!

Love how you are savouring the words and melody

This is so good! Thanks for your insight, brother! 🙏🏼

These are more than singing tips, it's tips for music in general, you can apply this to every instrument (your voice included) and any genre. Thanks for this :)

He tells the truth about dynamics and this goes beyond just singing. In playing instruments and composing this is especially important.

Nice! I like your laid back vibe with instructions. Totally can relate to changing the key. You're spot on!

Been killing it with the channel, Joseph! Top tier content, appreciate you

Such a great teacher!!! I would not be mad at more signing tips and music theory content!

Man, this is one of the best straight to the point videos I have ever seen. Thank you so much!

I can live happy knowing I discovered this channel and all your wonderful music. Thank you.

Super agree, especially to the last tip! Choosing the right song AND key. Some songs are great in their original key, but you'd end up straining yourself because it's too high or too low. I'm learning this, too, to be comfy in a song and really navigate an entire song and not get tired, and be satisfied because it fits my voice/style. Thanksss for your tips! Definitely will be more mindful of my posture and chin. Lovin the aesthetic and warmth of your video, as well.

Taking voice lessons for the first time in my 30s just to learn how to sing. Always something I wanted to do. Listening to propel talk about singing in this ways helps a lot.

It's nice having someone break these things down, without going crazy for the views. I don't know how many "how to sing" videos I had to discard, just because of how "over the top" everything they did was, Thanks for keeping it real

Sick video man! I would really love to just see you riff in different keys/tones/ways etc (kinda like you did at the 8 minute mark)!! Just feel like it’d be really insightful and helpfullll

You sound absolutely amazing.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

It's so satisfying watching your videos! It looks really good and all the information you're providing are on point and useful 🙌

Okay, that back straight and chin down tip is pure gold. I have heard from countless vocalist friends of mine that sing from the back of your throat, and I never could get it right the moment I put my chin down and my back straight I could hear each note bouncing around in my head and my throat.

É maravilhoso demais!! Vem pro Brasil♥

I've listened to you everyday for the past 3 days and you've gained 3k subs in that time 👀 Good luck my brother, keep reaching souls ❤️

This is really being kind to be an awesome singer out there and also help your followers in their interest❤️❤️

Yea... this is good! Really understand the concept of relaxed singing/ speaking vs. open wide singing. Fab!🎉🎉🎉

Great video! The setup (lighting, framing etc) looks so good as well. It fits with your warm singing tone and the style of the video 😊

Give us a full “If I Ain’t Got You” cover!! You sound great!!

Thank you! I’m just starting to comfortable singing after playing for years. This was a really helpful video!

I cannot thank you enough for this vid. I wi defintely work out what you have shared here as I am still discovering my voice. Love how melodious your voice is..I am sure those monstera plants are thriving listening to such soothing music from you.. bless you

Honestly bro, before I clicked the thumbnail I thought it was one those corny singing tips, But this is super practical and amazing, your voice is such a blessing

Great video my man. You also have a great natural voice. Especially the part about changing the key of a song to fit your voice (and not the other way round), is particularly useful. What I like to do is play the MELODY of a whole song on my guitar (in the artists original key). That allows me to identify the highest note their voice is reaching. I then transponse that highest note to my highest note and then I can sing the song more comfortably.

I love how you were trying to show examples of flaws and you were just too good (genuinely) like there didn't seem to be a problem at ALL.... I love this!! This was very helpful, I'm really getting into singing and this is perfect!! Nicely explained :)

This is the lesson I’ve been searching for. Thank you!!

These are so useful thank you sir, and your voice is amazing! I would love to see some technics where I’m able to practice and gain more air

I love your videos you truly are so talented and you inspire me in so many ways. Earlyyyy

Amazing advice. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain it 🙏🏻

Your singing voice vs talking voice is so incredibly unique and not expected in beauty. Keep it up beautiful soul.

Beautiful job. Excellent tips; concise and I didn't once feel like I was being sold something. Thanks for your time and btw Great voice!

Good stuff! Easy "rules" to follow 👍🏾

Stoked on this... Been seeing Joe's videos on IG for a while and always thought "I'd love to sing like this!" Awesome to have a few tips on achieving that.

There’s a humility to your aproach that gives in dividends. Awesome

Your voice is home for me. 🔥

I basically like various genres but never thought which songs that actually fits my voice. i just try to sing it, pretty much succeeded but i didnt sound good and losing my voice after i hit highnotes. thankyou for this. so much help!!

Thanks for the tips man. Your voice is one of the best male voices that I have ever heard! Amazing! Cheers

Thank you for this. I ain’t no singer but when learning new chords to play around with I’d like to sing along just to get the feeling or something. So this is very helpful appreciate it and keep up the good work 🙏🏼🫶🏻

i watched this without skipping a second lol.i hope i can be better at singing thankyou

This helped so much, i have a performance this friday and you just saved my life ryt here! Thx

You have a beautiful voice. Thank you for sharing that and your tips!!

Best practical singing tips out there. Thanks Joseph!

Wonderful Joseph! As someone who's studied a lot of voice science and vocal technique, I approve this video! everything is really nicely explained and truly helpful and organic

3:21 okay but I actually love that twangy version of the line a ton, but I totally get what you’re saying

Thank you very much for this.. these tips instantly made a difference.

Thanks for sharing. I hear mixed tips all the times so it helps to pick and choose which applies the best. These feel practical and makes sense. The key thing is so understated. That helped me the most personally.

These were really good points! I actually find for some reason when i close my eyes my voice is a little better, not sure if this is just in my head though😅 Also, i find choosing a key that suits me is hard as womens vocals are always expected to be high. My comfortable range is lower than that so i sing in a 'mans range' but then that can go too low for me so its a struggle😬

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills with us! Not everyone does that, really appreciate it from you!🔥

Lots of great points made thank you sir!

this video showed up in my suggested and i gotta say the texture in the video is so clean. his couch looks so aesthetic.

BOTTOM LINE - KNOW YOUR VOICE!!!

Awesome! quick question bro: I feel like I can sing comfortably in C# mainly. I’ve noticed I always transpose towards that key have you noticed you sing at around a main key?!?
