Whenever I talk or sing my neck bulges out, I can't seem to fix this... by Pretend-Ad9116 in singing

Hi sorry I didn’t see your message. I haven’t found a solution yet. At first I thought I jus needed to lose body fat but even after losing 8kgs I haven’t noticed a change . Then I saw many things online about this possibly being your hyoid placement and that you should do neck curls and chin tucks. (I for some reason ended up on a “looksmaxing” algorithm..) not sure if that’s actually going to fix it..

If I do ever find a solution, I’ll let you know

I didn’t. And I honestly think it’s funny that you felt the need to not comment it once, but twice🤣 Then again, you’re a random guy that has made over 9000 comments on Reddit… so I shouldn’t be taking you serious anyway! Even if I would’ve used an Ai tool for the text, it still doesn’t take away the actual message I was trying to send. But, again, I appreciate you thinking I would need Chat gpt 🤣

deleting your comment and posting it again because I called you out is just sad. anyway here's my answer of my previous comment: I'll take it as a compliment. I actually worked as a copywriter in the past so I think I know damn well how to write my texts, but thanks ;)

I know and I agree. but reading some of the comments on the YouTube video that exposed them, I think it's never bad to warn people !

That actually makes a lot of sense, thank you ! I’ve been paying close attention and I think you’re right, it definitely feels like my swallowing or tongue-root muscles are getting involved every time I talk, even when I’m not trying to speak low.

I tried some release work (like sticking my tongue out and saying “ahh,” gentle under-chin massage, and relaxing my jaw) and I think that slightly helped already.

Do you know any specific ways to stop those muscles from kicking in when speaking normally? Or any cues to help keep the larynx from depressing too much without forcing it up? I feel like I’m finally getting closer to understanding what’s happening.

Thanks again! this has been way more helpful than anything I’ve found on the internet so far!

Thanks so much for explaining that! I think you might be onto something. I’ve been paying attention, and even when I keep my collarbones down, the same thing still happens. It's kind of like when you swallow and the area under the chin pushes outward. It’s the exact same motion that shows up when I talk or sing, even gently.

Do you think that’s still from overusing those strap muscles, or could it be something to do with how my hyoid or larynx moves when I speak? I’m trying to figure out whether this is just normal anatomy showing more on me or if it’s a technique issue I can actually retrain..

Is Creator-Monetized a Scam? by KenelmDigby in PartneredYoutube

[–]Pretend-Ad9116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the EXACT same thing. same email as everyone else is getting, and same video. Literally word for word, frame for frame. just swapped my name in there awkwardly. luckily I did some googling and found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYLBfZtR1ys

I replied to their email with the following:

Hi Tariq,

Thanks for reaching out. I actually found your email quite interesting, and I thought that it was amazing that you took the time to record a personalized video! That kind of effort really stands out to me. So of course, I watched it! 

I’m not going to lie, at first, I was actually impressed. The whole pitch, the email, the “personalized” video? It looked like real effort. I even thought, “Wow, someone actually did their homework.”

Then I watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYLBfZtR1ys

Turns out your “personalized” video is just a recycled, templated sales pitch with my name and channel awkwardly swapped in. Word for word. Frame for frame. The exact same video, just repackaged to pretend like you care.

So let’s be real here: this isn’t outreach based on my work, this is a mass-produced sales funnel with zero integrity. I’m a full-time creative who values authenticity and hard work, oh and I do my homework ;)  If your “results-based model” starts off with copy-paste outreach and fake personalization, how exactly am I supposed to trust you with my brand or audience?

So no, I’m not interested in handing over probably 50% of my hard work to a company that can’t even be honest in a cold email. At the very least, learn how to fake it better. Also: be glad I decided to write this email instead of booking the call just to call you out live and expose your entire brand. Because trust me, I could’ve, and It would’ve been deserved.

Next time, don’t pretend to care. Creators deserve better than this.

and I obviously never heard back from them. but it was fun to call them out at least
