Hi.
I’m a girl with a dream to become a pop/rock singer, but how do I do that? I have a pretty nice voice (but i’m in voice lessons and getting better as we speak so skill’s already taken care of), and I have a few good songs written. I’m not that great with my guitar when trying to do anything OTHER than finding basic notes for a rhythm to set lyrics to, and I have no music editing/recording experaicne and no softwear.
The pop genres i’m into are similar to Cascada, Pink, and O-zone (in English), and the rock genres i’m into are similar to that of Flyleaf, Fall Out Boy, and Bon Jovi.

Hi,

you ask for the basics? The basics are pretty general, you need talent, you need ambition, you need drive and HARD work, you need image, you need luck.

There are a few, very few, people who succeed on reality shows like Pop Idol, where they gain an accelerated rise into stardom in a few months. These are NOT the norm.

The vast majority of music stars began by forming a band, practising, then performing. If you are any good (and others have to decide that) you may get a following. A good fan base can be instrumental in gaining disc sales, etc. Good sales will give record companies confidence in supporting you and promoting you and your work.

But first…look at your talents. You are still taking voice lessons? Lessons are not a bad thing, but is there anything in your voice that is unique? Listen to the stars you admire…what in their voices makes them stand out? If you can’t identify what it is ask your vocal coach (who is possibly better qualified to identify quality in a voice)

You say you have written some ‘good’ songs. That may be true, but how do you know? (that they are ‘good’ that is) have you performed them, or is it only your family and friends that praise them? Be honest! Your family may not be. Do your songs get applause from a paying audience?

Have you had paying audiences?

You say you are practising the guitar…practice is good, but before you can be a ‘star’, you need to be damned good!

So practice every day, for hours a day, until your guitar becomes a natural part of you, so you can pick it up and play to ANYONE’s music without a thought. Then you have the basic skills needed to play in your chosen genre.

I once saw a ‘genuine’ rock star in a TV interview in the early 1980′s, who had just topped the charts in Britain…he was asked what it was like to become an overnight success?
He said, very rewarding…it’s only taken me fifteen years!
That man was Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits.

When we start out we ALL want to be overnight successes, we all imagine we are suited to stardom and we crave the adulation of millions of fans who will buy our music, make us rich and all we have to do is walk on stage and sing.

Some make it, I hope you do one day, but it doesn’t happen…YOU have to MAKE it happen. It takes years of very hard work to gain the requisite skills. It takes a lot of luck to have some unique quality that is wanted and admired by your audiences. It takes even more luck for your talents and skills to be noted by music industry moguls who are the people, eventually, who will propel you to stardom.

I never made it…I thought I was good enough, but the industry didn’t notice me, nor does it notice 99% or more of all the people who feel, like I did, that we deserve to be headlining the stadiums around the world. I have settled, not unhappily, for providing some entertainment for people and get applause, which satifies my ego, and get paid, which satisfies my bank balance…Had I had the drive when I was a teenager, to work hard enough at the business, maybe…well, yes, maybe?

You need REAL ambition to succeed, you also need that one ‘unique’ quality in your voice or your music to gain respect, you need talent musically and you need luck.

I wish you all of those things, but more than all these things you need to work at your goal and work hard, every day to get better, to get noticed, to get fans.

You’ll also need to be tough, to not collapse when disappointed, you WILL get disappointments, regularly (just think about the 74, 988 people from Pop Idol that DIDN’T make it to the finals!)

Get a band, play, perform…live, eat and breathe music and maybe, just maybe, you’ll succeed where lesser mortals, without the ambition, like me, didn’t.

Good luck,

BobSpain
