As you read this, maybe you can feel your own parents sighing in frustration. Although I'm sorry to them, you can no longer ignore your heart - becoming a singer is difficult, but it is the only thing you want to do. The good news is, becoming a singer can be done! I’ll teach you how to do it below, so read on!

Part 1: Training your voice

1. Learn how to sing. This is the cornerstone of your career as a singer. Although some performers with average singing skills have achieved success in the singing industry (and some are still successful), only those who have great skills and continuously improve their form and ability can gain respect as singers. Experiment with singing in different styles to find the genre that really suits your voice. Try to understand your range, what your voice is suitable for, what is easy for you, what is difficult, and what genres exhaust your voice. The good news is, all of this can be done in the shower. When you realize where you started, you will find that you have made a lot of progress.

2. Take vocal lessons. If you spend enough time, a vocal coach will literally transform you from a "cat meows in spring" to a loud and well-controlled singing voice. If you practice consistently (and your coach is competent), you'll notice noticeable improvements in your voice within a few weeks. This is important for improving the strength and overall quality of your voice; and if you can't pronounce your voice correctly, forced practice can damage your vocal cords. Hiring a vocal coach can theoretically prevent this. If you can't afford vocal lessons, try following some vocal training tutorial programs at home. After all, these programs can teach you the basic principles of vocal technique. You may give up on singing lessons for financial reasons, but know that most instructors work with their students in a specific way, which is often established within the first few days of instruction. Once you know how to achieve the results you want, you can theoretically practice it yourself.

3. Learn to read music. American singer Fantasia Barrino can't even read music, but she succeeds - but that's rare after all. If you plan on communicating with professionals, reading music is key to success—because it will make them take you seriously. So join a band, take classes, and keep improving your music theory skills. When you reach the top level, people want to compose for you and accompany you. You will have little practice time and need a solid foundation to start with. Being able to read music gives you these.

Since you have put in the effort and time to learn musical notation, it is not necessarily difficult to master an instrument. Singers are usually relatively common and not valuable, but those who can sing, play guitar, piano and drums are relatively rare and are "priceless".

4. Learn from the singers you admire. However, imitation is not enough. You have to be creative to create your own future. How does your favorite singer sing? What is their signature style? Don’t think of this as simple copying – come up with two or three things they do well and expand and combine them. In addition to their music, perhaps studying their lives will also help you in your career as a singer. How did they become professional singers? What did they do to reach the top of their careers step by step? Most importantly, what can you learn from it?

Part 2: Develop like an artist

1. Get used to being a performer. If there was only radio, a singer might just be a singer, but in this day and age, you have to be an entertainer. When you leap onto the stage, you have to be confident enough to grab your audience and keep them in their seats watching your performance. How do you gain confidence? Practice, practice, practice, and take advantage of every opportunity to perform! Even something as small as singing karaoke will give you time to perform in front of everyone. Audition for a talent show, sing outdoors at night, join a choir or theater group, anything you can do to sing in front of people will make you better at it (and maybe you'll meet someone who can help you out!) < /p>

2. Find your own style. Experiment with different singing styles and different types of music to find a style that suits your personality and brings out your best voice at the same time. You definitely want people to recognize your voice when they hear it, and if they can't, you might as well go do something else. Embrace what makes your sound unique. At first you may think that the twang in your voice is bad, but if you want to overcome this problem, it is completely unnecessary and should be used to your advantage. Adele's voice is hazy and smooth, but very distinctive; Amy Winehouse's voice is a bit rough, but very distinctive; Justin Timberlake has a nasal voice, but also very distinctive. Whatever you are like now, keep it up.

3. Create your own works. Start writing now—you’ll need to continually invest time and effort into improving your songwriting skills. When you're ready to submit your work to a producer or similar, you can filter out your best work and weed out the less-than-stellar ones. Sooner or later you'll need to write your own songs. If you're not that good at composing music, start by writing lyrics. Once you've created the lyrics and melody in your head, you may have a friend who likes to play guitar for you to help you play it out. When you make a million, you can give him 3% of the profit from this song, or you can treat him to dinner now, whatever.

4. Become famous in your community. Everyone starts somewhere, and the easiest place to start is your hometown. Even if your hometown is a small town, there are opportunities to strengthen your professionalism, but opportunities will not come to you. You need to create opportunities yourself. Join a local theater. Many singers have modern dance skills, and singing and dancing on stage is a very cool thing.

Get a low-key gig in a café or bar. If you can play an instrument (or have a friend who's willing to collaborate with you) and are willing to perform for a small amount of money, there's usually one or two cafes that are willing to ask you to play some soothing background music occasionally. You may just play to fill your stomach, but – that’s just the beginning! If this seems a little intimidating, start by hanging out at live music venues and joining bands that are performing special gigs. Ask them if they can let you sing a song or two - if you're good enough, they'll remember you and your relationship will only grow from there. Can you say this is a replacement?

5. Establish contact. Start your career by uploading your work to video sites and let your friends record your performances too - the higher the quality, the better. Create Weibo, MySpacemusic, Facebook, and Twitter accounts to promote your songs. You need a group of fans who will understand you and support you so that your first album can be a hit! These things will be very useful when you start creating promotional materials. If you can't be found online, you have almost no presence. Build your online presence well enough to make sure you can be found by people who may be searching for something "like" you.

Part 3: Going to the next level

1. Perform paid performances regularly. That could mean a lot of things—joining a band, singing at a local coffee shop, performing on Broadway or on a cruise ship, or even recording a commercial—your goal is to make a living as a singer. Just go ahead and do it! Start by going to entertainment venues to see what local bands are available in the area, contacting bands or venues that advertise on billboards and job boards looking for singers, backup singers and similar personnel. Doing so may mean moving to a big city. Artistic careers like singing don't have room for development everywhere, but you may get better opportunities in big cities. Think about it, and if it looks promising, consider moving!

2. Purchase equipment. First, you need a microphone. Secondly, you may benefit from investing in a sound system - not all venues have this and they will tell you, "If you can bring your own sound system, we will definitely hire you." Don't miss out on this because you don't have a sound system gigs (constant rentals can cost a fortune), with your own equipment you don't need to rely on anyone. You may also be considering buying some recording equipment for your home. If you're good at mixing and the studio quality is good, that's great. Videos on the video website can be updated every week!

3. Make your own audio CD. By this point, you'll hopefully have enough contacts in the music industry to find a decent studio and a few acquaintances to help you record a few songs. This recording will always be useful - you can send it to a record label, upload it to your personal online portfolio, or just show it off when people are trying to prove that you should give up singing. If you can't afford a studio (which can be quite expensive), having the equipment at home can be very convenient. As long as you have the relevant skills, there are a lot of free software online now that can make music. Whatever you do, don't settle for thinking it's good enough. Your recording disc needs to have the best lighting to highlight you. The more professional it sounds, the more money you'll make.

4. Hire an agent. If you want to send your demo to a promising record company, you need an agent. Larger companies don't accept "unsolicited stuff," such as music for the general public without an agent. Technically, an agent can be anyone—but the better your agent is, the more gigs you're likely to get. When it comes to working with an agent, make sure your agent believes in your music and won't exploit you. A good agent only makes money if you make money and sincerely believes that will happen, which is why he/she signed an agreement with you in the first place. You can find agents online on forums, or even one of your friends may be trying to get into the industry.

5. Send samples of your work.

It's really not your job, it's your agent's job, you just keep improving yourself, selling yourself and doing your best every show. It’s promising that the projects will get bigger and bigger, and then one day you’ll get a call from your manager saying you’re signed to a record company! Long live! Contact information for many music companies can be found online. The smaller the label, the more open it is to all types of content, don't just go to the labels you've heard of.

You may also want to send promotional materials to give people a visual impression of your overall feel and to get all the necessary information about you. You can do this yourself, but you might benefit from having someone (someone experienced) do it for you.

6. Improve your appearance. Now, you have almost reached the pinnacle of international fame, but who are you? After all, LadyGaga wasn't always LadyGaga. You don't need to change yourself, but you need a clear look and feel. Without a clear look (and feel), you won't have a defined audience. Your agent or advisor may have serious opinions on this issue, and so may the record label, if there is one. Take seriously any suggestion that you make drastic changes - you'll regret it if it's later revealed that you used to wear pigtails and rock out hair.

7. Promote, promote, promote again. Being a singer doesn't allow for a lot of down time (except for the fact that this job doesn't feel like work), seek every opportunity you can to turn an ordinary day into a profitable day, and if you don't have time to go back to the house and rest , if you have to stay on the bus all night, then just leave it to fate. Involve your family and friends in the promotion process. They can not only recommend you to their family and friends, but also become great T-shirt billboards, groupies and evangelists.

Just because someone hasn’t approached you doesn’t mean they aren’t interested in you. When you enter a restaurant without live music or go to an auditorium during the off-season, ask them if they need you to perform. Opportunity may knock on the door and come to you, or it may open the door and wait for you to find it.

Tip practice, practice, practice. Whether it's singing in the shower or singing to your grandparents, practice, if you don't practice, you'll never improve.

Find music that suits your voice. There's no point singing classical music, opera, or rock if you feel uncomfortable in your vocal range. Being uncomfortable while singing can lead to a tight voice that can never be fixed.

Drink plenty of water, stay away from smoking and excessive alcohol, and keep your voice healthy.

Find happiness in singing. There's nothing more compelling than seeing a person in his right environment, and if you love singing, no matter what you sing, it's going to be a great show.

If someone offers to release your record, don't agree immediately. Make sure you know the person and the record company.

Recognize that improving your voice and voice takes time, and convincing people of how great you are takes even longer.

When choosing karaoke music, know that you need to captivate your audience within the first 30 seconds. Don’t pick a song where you’re not at your best during the decisive moment.

If you want to go out without drawing too much attention after you become famous, dress up in disguise to hide from your fans.

Don’t eat too much food before singing or auditioning; it will make your voice sound strange and you may get a stomachache.

Warning You will face a lot of rejection along your career path, and if you know you won't handle this well, maybe you can consider other options.
