What is Souldeling?
1.
The act of singing notes all up and down throughout three different octaves in five lyrical syllables or less. Technique made most popular by boy bands like All 4 One and Boyz II Men, its purpose is to convey a deep flowing current of emotion, yet sounds more like a vocal epileptic seizure revealing the singer's inability to hold a note for longer than half a second.
The end of that sappy-ass All 4 Men song "I Swear" where the singer hits no fewer than 22 notes in the three syllables "Oh, I swear" is a prime example of souldeling.
