I dunno :(
I keep people around me that I trust as a second pair of eyes. If you don’t have that kind of honesty with your team, your style will never translate. And I stay true to myself. Thanks for the message ;)
i love writing. i love hip hop. i wanted to put my region on. i wanted to put my hometown heroes on. then I eventually learned that I need to put myself on first. though I love music journalism, there is a lot of politics, cliques and pretentiousness surrounding the “chosen few” who still are in the writing game, and the one thing I took away was that their lists, their words, their experience is no more credible, important or authoritative than yours as a listener.
and if you are a young API woman looking into it as a career here are some words of advice:
- don’t do it for the approval of others (consciously or subconsciously)
- guard your reputation and credibility fiercely
- build a natural rapport and ask the tough questions after you’ve warmed them up
- learn photo and video editing skills
- every rapper will be infatuated by your position to critique. don’t be fooled. it’s an interview, not a date/therapy session.
- get it done, and get the hell outta there. remember the reputation thing?
- do your best to put YOUR PEOPLE on. that’s what this is about: breaking artists you believe in.
- it’s a tough game out there but don’t hate on other women to get to where you need to be.
- don’t. stop. writing. ever.
