Vocal technique, exercises, tips and relevant resources

Are you a beginner or advanced singer?

If your goal is to learn how to sing like Jonathan Freeman, who voices Jafar in the Disney animated film "The Return of Jafar," there are several techniques and resources that can help you achieve this.

One aspect of Freeman's unique vocal style is his use of vibrato. This technique involves the quick oscillation of pitch during a sustained note and helps to add emotion and expression to the singing voice. You can learn more about vibrato and how to incorporate it into your own singing with this helpful article on Singing Carrots: Singing with Vibrato.

Another technique that Freeman uses in his singing is chest voice. This is the lower register of the singing voice and is characterized by a deeper, fuller sound. To learn more about chest voice and how to master it, check out this instructional video: Chest Voice Explained.

In terms of specific songs to showcase Freeman's vocal style, you can look to the soundtrack of "The Return of Jafar" itself. The song "You're Only Second Rate" features Freeman's signature villainous singing style and is a great example of a song that showcases his unique vocal technique.
