How Jhené Aiko uses that range
Jhené whispers at pitch, keeping phonation so light that the line hovers between speech and song. She leans on vocal fry as an entrance, slides between notes in narrow glissandi, and lets sibilants and breath become part of the texture. Her upper register is a filmy head voice, never pushed. Students copying her lose the pitch core inside the airiness; the whisper still needs precise fold closure at the center, tuned quiet rather than merely breathy.

Reading the numbers
- B2 is a deep floor for a soprano — lower than all but 5 of the 97 sopranos here.
- That floor is a full 13 semitones beneath where a soprano's range conventionally starts (C4).
- The span runs 8.5 semitones past the median voice in this library (32.5 semitones).
- 3 other voices here carry the identical cited range — at the resolution these figures are quoted in, those voices are indistinguishable on the chart.
- No separate full-voice ceiling is cited, so the figures describe a range worked largely in full voice across its 41 semitones.
Commonly cited figures, not lab measurements — extreme notes are one-off recorded moments, not the singer’s everyday range.
