× Yes, I love singing because it has to reduce my stress and it helps me to express my emotion.
✓ Yes, I love singing because it helps reduce my stress and helps me express my emotions.
The phrase 'has to reduce' is incorrect here; 'helps reduce' is the correct expression. Also, 'express my emotion' should be plural 'express my emotions' because emotions are generally plural when talking about feelings.
× Whenever I'm tired of doing work or studying, I often sing a song.
✓ Whenever I'm tired from working or studying, I often sing a song.
The phrase 'tired of doing work' is awkward; 'tired from working' is more natural. Also, 'sing a song' is acceptable but 'sing songs' or just 'sing' is more common.
× I want to sing for my family and close friend because they are always there to support me and cheer me when I am feeling tired, uh, from work.
✓ I want to sing for my family and close friends because they are always there to support me and cheer me up when I am feeling tired from work.
The phrase 'close friend' should be plural 'close friends' to match 'family'. Also, 'cheer me' should be 'cheer me up' to be idiomatic.
× so they are the people I feel more most comfortable performing for.
✓ so they are the people I feel most comfortable performing for.
The phrase 'more most comfortable' is redundant; only 'most comfortable' is correct.

✓ a popular artist named Taylor Swift has written many love songs about her past relationships that inspire and comfort her listeners.
The phrase 'with inspire and comfort her listener' is incorrect. It should be 'that inspire and comfort her listeners' to correctly modify 'love songs' and use plural forms.
