Solange- Vocal profile/range



Vocal TypeSoprano
Vocal Range: 3 Octaves 1 note D3-E6
Whistle Register: No
Vocal Pluses: Her lower range has a smoky timbre that is pleasant to the ear. Her chest voice is clear, bright and light. While her head voice is strong and wide, extending past the soprano high C.
Vocal Negatives: The chest voice lacks power, and the tone starts to sound constricted and pushed above a C5.

  2. Sandcastle Disco is the ultimate housework song, I could happily bop around the house doing bits and pieces to that song all day!

  4. If she develops power in her chest voice, her voice could be better than Beyonce's, she could also easily develop her whistle register by learning how to shorten her cords more, which is quite easier for most sopranos than Mezzo-sopranos and contraltos. with more training she can go a long way to stardom.

  7. The capacity to be a fantastic singer is there, but as Karen said on one of the other posts her voice can be very strident and can take on a rough tone, I do like her though. I wish she would get round to recording some more!

  8. Did any of you guys purchase her 'True EP'? I did (luckily just before hmv died on me *sad face*) and I am thoroughly impressed, she takes retro sounds and drags them into the here and now. Vocally she is incredible too! I would advise anyone who likes classy RnB to check it out! She is starting to gain more respect from myself than her sister commands! Maybe its just my preference to the soprano voice but I really enjoy Solanges music, maybe its because its more her than more 'needing a generic hit record'...no shade intended. I got time for Bey too :)

  9. Her true ep is awesome!!!!! Her voice is amazing. Especially on ... well all of them. Her lryics actually mean something and still sounds fun n the process. Lovers in park and locked in closets are my personal faves

  10. I loved "True"; musically, it's more consistent than anything her sister has released. The production on Locked In Closets and Losing You is perfection. I think I'ma bust out "True" now that summer is just around the corner.

  11. Another aspect I like about her is that she is an amazing dresser. has a wonderful lean physique so she looks good in anything but she loves to mix up bold colors and patterns. She is my style icon! Always classy.
