Have you ever dreamed of becoming a world famous singer? While there is no guaranteed path to fame, here are a few things you can do to help increase this opportunity.

Steps

1. 

   Determination and perseverance. There are many talent contests out there - thousands of people want to be famous and have good luck on their way to making a singing career. Most famous singers spend years training their voices and performing at small music shows with low compensation before they change their clothes. Don't forget your biggest goal and try to be patient.

2. 

   
   
   Win over your fear. Other than you might think, quite a few performers struggle with stage fright. If this is the same problem you have, or if you are anxious to gain recognition from others, find ways to cope with your fear and boost your confidence. Sing in front of a crowd regularly, whether it's in the car with friends or on stage, and remember that people's comments about you aren't always important - it's important that you keep working for your own dream.

3. 

   
   
   First, sing the song that you feel you sing best. If it feels good, keep singing cabinets next. Before you succeed, you'll have music nights that cover quality songs.

4. 

   Breathe, take a deep breath, take more breath into the song. Don't let your breath run out or sing without power.

5. 

   
   
   If you are not able to compose your own songs, sing songs that really fit. Many singers don't write songs themselves, but that's okay. Especially in the early days, you want listeners to pay more attention to the quality of the vocals than the ability to compose. Make a list of 10 to 15 songs by another artist that you find yourself able to sing well and practice to sing better and better.
   • Choose cleverly songs, harmonious combination between popular songs and picky songs. You should not only focus on songs that are on the 40 most popular songs chart, nor should you just sing songs that few people know.
   • Focus on classical music. A good way to get your song noticed is to change the timbre, beat, or instrument dramatically, especially with popular songs. Compare different versions of "Hallelujah" or Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" re-sung in Civil Wars style.

6. 

   Sing in front of the crowd whenever possible. Sign up to perform at multiple concerts for a chance to sing - you'll never expect who is listening under the audience seats. Sing at private parties, provincial fairs, store openings, motorcycle shows, sporting events, talent shows, karaoke and anywhere that invites you whether you get paid or not . Even though you haven't made an immediate impression on a talent-seeking representative, you are still practicing your stage skills and getting used to standing in front of the crowd.

7. 

   Create a YouTube channel. Some people have become really famous by posting videos of their singing on YouTube. These include Charice Pempengco, Austin Mahone, Greyson Chance and most notably Justin Bieber.
   • Remember: The Internet is not always an ideal environment. If you are not sure if your voice is excellent, postpone it until the practice gets better. You may get complimented online, but you might also meet people who want to put you down.
   • Also, keep in mind that anything you post online will live on. Therefore, only post works you feel confident about publicly for anyone to see and even 10 years later you will be proud of them.
   • Do not upload videos to YouTube if you are underage. If you are a minor, ask your parent to help you compose the text.

   Know how to engage the media. Always pay attention to this whether eating, breathing or sleeping. Look for photo opportunities. Speak up. Taking any opportunity can help you become the center of all attention. Make yourself known by many people.

Go to a city with a musical tradition (like Nashville, Memphis, NYC, LA, New Orleans, Austin or Las Vegas) and build relationships with musicians there.
   • Create relationships with other musicians.You never know who will collaborate with or introduce yourself to an entertainment company in the future. So, be friendly and take care of other people's careers as well.

    Always show your best. When you're on stage or working in groups with professionals in the industry, show them how cool you are. Smile, answer questions and sing with all your passion, even when you're not in good shape. The ability to create a cheerful and energetic atmosphere is part of the entertainment industry, as if you were lighting a light in a dark room.
    • Don't show your arrogant demeanor to your fans. Remember that the fans can help you turn from unknown singer to star. Sign autographs, answer questions and take souvenir photos with them after the show.

11. 

    Learn to deal with criticism. This still happens - no matter how great you are, someone doesn't like your voice. Even world-famous singers have people who don't like them. You should only listen to constructive criticism because they can really improve your abilities; if not, just ignore it. Avoid getting involved in arguments or fights about your dreams, stay away from people who are quarreling because they are just jealous.

12. 

    Accept the rejection and keep going. This is not so common, but many great artists have been rejected several times before being signed by record labels, including The Beatles. If someone doesn't want to cooperate with you, it's their loss - look for another opportunity and hold your head high.

However, be aware that once you join a band, you should accept to share the aura with the rest of the members - that is, you can't pursue a career and only think of yourself as you do. also an independent artist. Please consider the real deal more carefully before making a decision.
