NOW PLAYING // Why Is It So Hard
I had the possibility to interview this upcoming young and talented lady. “Why Is It So Hard” is truly an amazing track, so check it out!
First of all, I wanted to congratulate you with your song “Why is it so hard”. It’s amazing. I hope you don’t mind the comparison but it really has the Rihanna vibe. Is she one of your influences? Or do you have other role models you look up to?
Thank you very much. I think Rihanna is a very talented artist but my biggest influences are Sade, Anita Baker, Whitney Houston and Beyonce.
How would you describe yourself to someone who hasn’t heard of you before?
"r&b chick with a pop twist"
You got discovered through the videos you posted on YouTube, did you ever think that would happen?
Well the hope that something like that would happen is why i started posting my videos on youtube to begin with. I had hoped that someone would take note of my talent and go from there, i have to say though i was shocked at how quickly it did happen.
In the promo we received it said you were still unsigned, has that changed in the meanwhile?
has not changed...YET but im hopefully it will in the future.
Are there any prospects for a debut album?
i would love that and im thinking there is a good chance that could be very possible.
How old were you when you started singing?
i was 13 years old.
Do you play any instruments, or would you like to learn to play an instrument?
i used to play the flute and i know how to play a little piano. I would love to learn to play the acoustic and expand my pianist abilities.
What's your favourite song that you've recorded thus far?
i would have to say whys it so hard is def my favourite. i feel this song was more personal and so i was able to connect with it more.
What is MUSIC for you?
music, is my passion, my form of escape, my way of expression.
What is the last album you bought? What kind of music do you like?
last album i bought was actually chris browns graffiti. im an eclectic so i love all types of music. as long as lyrically i can connect, i'll listen to it.
Besides music, what other things can Gabrielle do?
I love to write. as a young child i used to write small stories all the time and as i grew older it turned to poetry, its always been so therapeutic to me
Where do you see yourself in five years, both professionally and personally?
professionally, i see myself a signed artist, making good music for the people
personally, i prefer not assess that but rather "go with the flow" time will tell
