How Steven Tyler uses that range
Rasp is present at nearly every volume, sitting on top of a bright forward tone rather than replacing it. Phrases slide into pitch from below and often flick upward at the end. Above the E5 belt the sound turns to distorted cry and screamed falsetto instead of clean tone. Blues bends and quick melisma fill the gaps. The grit is layered over real support; produce it in the throat and you get noise.
