Peiderezek's voice was described by Matsutsang Dsim(?) as "utterly distinct and beautiful". His vocal style has changed throughout his career, being described as "darker" and "aggressive" in ''Mujekesi Soyandoze, Kele Sinceyudefonu Tezhetsogewe'', and to an extent ''Ele. A''s he moved his musical style to a more pop-sound with his album ''sozhe'' and his mixtape ''Shile Biyefonu'', his style has changed to a somewhat gentler, softer, and clearer tone. With the release of his latest mixtape ''Dazhenabi'', a noticable change in his vocal quality to a more delibrately hoarse style has been noted, though he still maintains a clear vocal tone. As Peiderezek aged, his voice has changed significantly. In his single "Tage", his voice reaches a high countertenor range, with ''Mujekesi Soyandoze'' featuring roughly this same vocal range. Since then, his voice has descended to a lyric tenor; this change was particularly noticed with the release of ''Kele Sinceyudefonu Tezhetsogewe'' and ''Ele.'' | ||
