Can someone help me on how to find out if I'am using to much air when I sing, Because my throat is kinda of sore after I sing regular music (BTW I dont sing heavy metal like screaming I sing pop, some christmas and christian music) what do I do to know and how do I maintain small air usage for when I sing? -That K1D 03

If your throat becomes dry when you sing, or sore/irritated. That is a good indicator that too much air is passing over your cords.

You can start here by watching this video, and while you are there, check out some of the other videos on Ken's channel. They are very helpful.

@ThatK1D03 as @videoace said if its sore its a good indicator, also make sure you try to match what Ken does with his mouth on this video it will make the process faster

I have a sore throat/cold should I practice or should I do lip drills then practice how do I maintain my lips to vibrate for the lip drills

@thatk1d03 1 moisture your lips with saliva before starting, 2 think of the OOH vowel when doing it 3 Support, meaning watch the video @videoace posted to you, 4 low volume
