I make make music in my own time, messing around with beats and riffs I write. Always practicing performing in my room most times I probably look like an idiot dancing around haha.
Be different; be unique; be yourself.
Don’t let the idiots that like to bring you down, succeed in discouraging you. I let it get to me a while ago, and let me tell you, it feels SO good to come up under it!
I want longevity; I love music, being a musician is the greatest gift in the world to me, and if I were to get signed to a label, my family and team around me are always gonna be there to make sure they want the very best for me. My fans are what it’s all about...
I’ve seen too many celebrities fall from their morals, and I wanna come up under that and be THAT girl that doesn’t need a scandal to make herself look better.
If you can’t find what’s unique, people aren’t going to listen.
Please, please, PLEASE be yourself. If you catch yourself not, take a step back.
Most of all I like to sing my heart out to lyrics that really speak to people.
I only wish to climb even higher during the rest of my career because with the power of Team Grimmie, I won’t stop.
Be respectful to your peers and yourself, of course. Don’t be a jerk. But at the same time don’t settle for anything less than yourself.
I went to Philippines and I literally had the time of my life...
Youtube was the start of my career officially, although since I was 4 I’ve wanted to be a singer. I’ve performed here and there before youtube, but youtube push me much further.
But I also think it’s about a person’s personality that draws people in, too, not just their singing.
Harry Style’s hair is probably the greatest thing on this planet.
I had the opportunity to go on 2 tours with Selena Gomez and that really boosted the exposure and experience for me. It was when I got a shot at The Voice that I really got the biggest boost and got to show what I could do!
If you are posting your music on YouTube, maybe start with a popular cover done in a unique way.
My dad noticed some kind of talent on piano when he asked me to play a couple random songs on piano when I was 6 and I just did it. I attempted lessons but I was just so bad at reading notes. I would read “Three Blind Mice” by ear, so learning notes was almost impossible.
Skrillex. The man is a genius and paved a new way for music and it’s very inspiring.
Confidence is not ‘they will like me’. Confidence instead is ‘I’ll be fine if they don’t’.
Confidence is not, ‘they will like me,’ but ’i’m fine if they don’t.
