Hey Mila!
That’s a great question! For singers, the hardest part can be different for each person, but a few things are usually tricky. Taking care of your voice is super important because it’s an instrument. You need to stay hydrated, rest your voice, and avoid things like shouting.
Singing consistently is also tough. It’s not always easy to sound great every time, so singers have to practice a lot to stay on top of their game. And performing in front of an audience can make even the most experienced singers nervous. But learning how to deal with nerves is part of the job.
Staying healthy overall is another challenge because being sick can mess with your voice. Singers have to take care of their bodies, so they can keep performing.
But even with all these challenges, singing is so much fun! The most important thing is to keep practicing and enjoy the process. Remember, practice makes perfect, and if you love singing, you’ll keep getting better!
Good Luck!

Hey Mila, the most difficult part about this job is getting it. Not a lot of people make it, and most are stuck in choirs and feel they will never catch their break. What you want to do is establish your brand and go for it. Don't wait around for anyone to tell you you're good enough, just prove it. For example, as soon as you're able, get to writing, make a band, start performing, and find your audience. You can start reaching out to venues, coffee shops, and restaurants and just pitch them your event. This includes what you're gonna be doing, how many people will come, and how the profit will be divided. Then after this, you can get the money that you made and take it to a producer to release your music. Then share your music and make music videos, make sure you're marketing properly, and then just wait for people to find you. It's just a luck thing and your luck increases with support from your team and family. This can be your job if you let it be, good luck!

Hello!
I think one of the most difficult parts of being a singer is staying motivated at the start. Maybe you or your band are not drawing in views or streams, or there is not a lot of people in the audience at your shows. You might also hear negative feedback or no feedback at all, or you could not hear back from venues once you get the ball rolling.
One important thing to do is stay focused. You will build your audience over time, you will find venues that want you to perform there. You can turn the negative feedback into constructive criticism and motivation to keep pushing forth until you find the people who want to hear your voice. You can do this! Just keep at it!

The most difficult part of becoming a singer is finding your own voice. Not all voices sound the same, some are lower or higher than others, some are raspy with vibrato then some are smooth with no vibrato. Once you become comfortable with your God given sound, then you can create the songs you've always wanted without holding back!
Good morning...I agree with ZeTanya. Don't limit yourself to one type of music. Try different styles, study with a vocal instructor or coach. There are many programs on line for free. I started singing when I was in 6th grade... I've been singing ever since. :)

Hey Mila!
Being a singer is totally fun and glitter, but yep here are some tough stuff behind those catchy songs and cool concerts.
Basically voice is everything for a singer. Singers need to treat their voice like gold—no yelling at sports games or singing too much in the shower! If they lose their voice, they can’t perform. Imagine having to whisper while your friends are screaming their favorite songs!
It’s not just singing a song once and becoming famous. They spend hours practicing every day to sound perfect. Even famous singers still have vocal coaches—no one gets a free pass!😏
Also I have heard a singer who was really famous too say she had stage fright - - still? Yep! Even the biggest stars get nervous before performing in front of thousands of people. It’s like giving a speech in class—but with lights, cameras, and everyone watching your every move! It's true you will be used to it but sometimes that adrenaline of jump kicks in! 🤔 Was is adrenaline...
Anyways,
When singers go on tour, they travel a lot—different cities, little sleep, and fast food temptations. It’s fun but exhausting! Imagine doing homework on a moving bus while also trying to look and sound awesome.
Remember when being a singer, Not everyone will love their music, and people online can be harsh. Singers have to be tough and keep going, even when someone doesn’t like their latest song. Believe me many singers went through a lot because of the words people say to them just because they don't like their music or they are just being rude. Sometimes, some people don't really understand the position or the hardworking so they judge it without nay experience or second thought. That's why they have to be ready for handling critism.
Why is it so hard? We'll you might be asking!
Because being a singer isn’t just about talent—it’s about hard work, patience, and staying dedicated even when it gets tough. Plus, their voice is their superpower—they need to protect it at all costs!
Alright my humor run away for a sec! 😬 fun singing joke
Why did the singer go to music school?
To improve their “note”-worthy skills! 😎
Huh-Yea hope got ur laugh out!
Oh and one more thing my sister is on the way to become an idol, so she used to listen to one singers music but then she started quickly listening to other musicians and singers hearing different vocals and voices. Man she listens to music always. So listening to different types of voices will help you find yours and remember not everyone has a great voice, it takes time and you will have to even go through vocalist coaching to find your own sound. Just be sure to never get discouraged because as a singer you will have to keep yourself strong and head held high until you get that buddy to hit you hard making sure that smile doesn't fade! 😉🥰 Stay amazing Mila!
And, if you love singing, keep practicing and never ever give up because every superstar starts somewhere. Got more questions? Just keep asking because out here there is no stage fright! All the best and good luck Mila, future superstar! 😉🤗
