What variety of influences brought this mix of genres together? Like I said, I love that old-school, Showgirl has got that kind of funk and that soul that Labrinth and I both love. I always wanted to have that influence in my music because it makes me feel good, it gives me the most joy. How did you upbringing mould your sound into what it is today?
A kind of discovered this whole side of me by myself. My mum listened to a lot of reggae, especially Bob Marley, so I always had that rootsy kind of soul and music with a message vibe.
I really connect to music with a feeling to it and so I kind of discovered a lot of music by searching for it, or from hearing it on the radio or from people showing it to me. How did the Soul Sessions begin? When I met my manager, we kind of both knew you have to have an online presence in this day and age to make a name for yourself. Most of the time people are just sitting in their room, singing straight at a camera but we wanted to be a bit different and see a bit more of my personality and fun side.
So off the cuff we decided to go. We carried on from there in Harrods, Paris and New York and it really took off online!
What was it like supporting Tinie Tempah on his UK tour? It was a great feeling to be travelling around the country performing our music together. It was wicked but a bit surreal to be experiencing the tour lifestyle. What part of your journey so far has been most inspiring to you? So I was mind blown a little bit, and knew this is what I wanna do, to be able perform around the world and have any many people as possible hear my music.
Are we in for an EP or album soon? I Like afrobeats, I hear it on the radio all the time! Can you hear that? It sounds good! What direction do you see for the future of the UK music scene going in?
We have a few breakthrough artists, but it never really pops off big. The music seems to go around in circles, from the dance craze, to the people who want to bring it down to the bare roots or take it back old school. What does the future hold for Bluey Robinson? What advice can you give to upcoming artists trying get noticed? Do something crazy! Be yourself. But find out what you like and the things that reflect you and blow them up so the whole world can see.
Develop yourself and be as good as you can be, keep working and eventually people will wake up and take notice of you. Any shoutouts you wanna give? And to people who are nice in the world. Thank you. Check out www. I promise you, it is amazing! Have a read below! Sailing Soul s was really the first project I got to put out; I put it out for free in March of and that was pretty much my introduction to the world I guess!
How does your songwriting process work? It was something about how it made me feel. I think what I was going through when I wrote that song was so real that it was just like my therapy so the fact that my own song helped me means it has to be my favorite one!
What motivates you to do what you do? Well, thank you! I think that life just motivates me! I take from a lot of different aspects of my life and I feel like sharing is caring, and if we can all connect through our suffering, then we can all help each other.
What were you going through when you wrote that song and what is the concept behind it? When I start writing a song, I always take the approach of wanting the song to just mean one viewpoint and so when I started off, it was based around a guy that I had been liking for a long time true story by the way!
Then, it turned into also a story about the battle between having a child and not having a child. And another favorites is In Love We Trust. Was that written from an autobiographical viewpoint or was it about somebody else?
I think a lot of girls can relate to the first verse. Onto the album Souled Out, when can we be expecting to hear it and are you going to try and get a hit before putting it out or just put it out for your fans when the time feels right? You know what, I kinda just want to put it out when I feel ready. On that note, are there any features or producers that we can be expecting on the album?
Has that happened or is that a possibility? Common and Nas; I want to get in with both of them! Has anything come of that or are you hoping it will? Souled out has been getting pretty deep. I have some relationship songs on there too but I really just want to pour my soul into Souled Out and give the people a glimpse into the things that I think about daily.
Having grown up as part of music industry, what would you say is the darker side to it is and what would you warn artists about who are just getting started out? Some of them stay humble but a lot get… Souled Out in the wrong way?
Talking of that rise and fall, you and a lot of other artists over the past couple of years have been building the foundations and building themselves up to having the fanbase, music and stature normally only associated with a signed artist before actually signing a deal.
Yeah, it was a surprise that she tweeted back. This is really simple but it really helps: learn how to be in a room, by yourself, no music, no TV, no nothing, just. Back to the music, so far in , what have been your favorite album and what are you really feeling right now?
Have they happened naturally or was this the intended effect? Yeah, most of them have been natural. That happened naturally, we recorded that song and wrote that song so fast just because it was so natural! You know what, I sure do hope so! You know what, my crowd is always chill! Apart from yourself, what other artists who we may not have heard are you tipping for big things and we need to be listening to? Past the next album, what does the future hold for you? Any final words for the world?
Thank you for being patient with me! I promise to always really take my time and put my soul and effort into giving the people that listen to me the best and just stay tuned! Thank you! Fresh on the back of being named as, Amazon. The album quickly caught the attention of music enthusiasts and industry heavyweights.
Hi Justin, How are you? Hope all is well with you and all of your readers. What was it like growing up as a musician in a town as small as Plaquemine, Louisiana? It was pretty awesome actually. I really had a great upbringing and my close family and friends definitely encouraged me to pursue music. Which artists inspired you when you first started out? Do they still inspire you today? Do you have any new inspirations? If you could choose just 1 artist or group to work with, from the influences you gave, who would you pick and why would you choose that artist or group rather than another?
Taio Cruz definitely because I feel I could learn a lot from him musically and industry wise.
