Hi Wyatt,
Of course you can post the link to TikTok, which I see you've done
Thank you so much for sharing (somehow two threads were created, so I merged them into this one).
First of all, it takes serious guts to put yourself out there like this, and I can tell from your singing that you have passion for the Lord. So few of us live the truth of Psalm 100:1-2, so well done.
Second, I appreciate (and share) your love for Southern Gospel music, and especially with the world in the shape it's in today, we need "a whole lot more of Jesus"
As we more and more of the original artists and their fans graduate to Heaven, it'll be young people like you who carry these traditions forward here on Earth.
Here's some feedback, please take it in the spirit it's given (as someone who would love to see you succeed) and for whatever it's worth (I'm not an expert on singing).
Suggestions for Song Selection
--------------------------
Search for The Happy Goodmans, The Rambos, The Dixie Echoes one at a time on the search bar on this forum (to the right of "Search this forum...") You'll find lots of results. Look for the ones that have the most replies and the most reviews. Those will give you a hint of which ones are the most popular, if you need some inspiration on what songs to record next.
Constructive feedback on your singing
--------------------------------
Like I said, I'm not a singing expert, and maybe a singing expert reading this can provide some professional feedback. But I can offer some advice as an amateur.
Overall, it's a really nice job. Your voice has a natural, pleasant sincere quality, and you clearly are emotionally connected to what you’re singing, which is so important for hymn and worship songs, especially the good old Southern Gospel.
I’d mainly work on supporting the ends of phrases a bit more, since a few lines taper off early, and on keeping held notes as steady as possible. Work on consistency of pitch on held notes: your intonation is generally spot-on, but some sustained notes seem to wander a bit. Also, a touch more projection and sharper diction could also help the song connect even better.
Also, I know you did this quickly, but continually work on your physical presence (posture, body language). You'd be surprised at how much this helps sound and delivery. Similarly, good audio equipment can make a big difference, so I'd look into a good quality microphone and recording software.
All that said, your foundation is excellent. You’ve definitely got a good foundation and the natural talent. Just keep working on the fundamentals, and keep us posted!
God bless,
Steve
