Why do we need to understand belting?

Singers need to understand belting to produce powerful, high-intensity sounds safely and effectively for genres like rock, pop, and musical theatre. Proper technique—often called "correct yelling"—avoids vocal strain, hoarseness, or long-term damage like nodules by utilising correct breath support rather than throat tension.
