Smoking good for vocal??

[ronorozoro1988]

I have heard that smoking can make you sing better.. is it true or a fake?

 

[sage]

it helps dry your throat, if that's your way of singing with
but overall and in the long run, it's not good for your voice.. not for clean vocals anyway.
i'm a smoker too btw, and yeah, still think it's bad for your voice and breathing. i sing better when i dont smoke for some time..

 

[Zarin]

ya true...very true. but for me im not a heavy smoker, i smoke sometimes most of the times before singing. it kinda clears ur throat. but after the long run, ur voice will be abit rough. so the best is still water!!
