Listened to most of it.

Your voice has a good tone to it, but wow. You’re all just very the place with that melody. Trying not to be mean, but sometimes it felt like you attempt at affecting a stylised way of singing was being used in favour of hitting the actual notes. Very off tune at times.

But. Lots of potential there, you just need to focus on melody first before expression. Or something. What do I know

lol! You’re all good I like constructive criticism.
Yeah this was just something to post tbh, it’s from like a year back. I’d hope I’ve improved since then. Now if you listen to my more recent vids and have the same thing to say, that’ll really give me a crisis 😹
