Interview with iamthereforeiam

Published on 6/24/2007
By Artistopia

Q. At what age did you realize you wanted to become a music artist and why?

before i was born i realized i wanted to become a music artist.

Q. Most music artists have that special someone or thing that influenced their decision to do music. Did anyone or something in your life play a major role in influencing you to go into the music business?

God influenced me to do music.

Q. In terms of the music, which major artist(s) influenced your style and why?

The choirs of angels, classical musics, and popular musics influenced my style because that was what i was exposed to.

Q. With so many independent artists trying to make it, what makes you stand out from the competition?

i am, therefore i am.

Q. Music industry professionals are quick to say that being an artist means to gracefully fit a marketable niche in the industry. If you were offered an opportunity that asked you to be something you are not, would you do it to get your foot in the door?

if i was offered an opportunity that asked me to be something i am not, i would not do it to get my foot in the door, even though i have experience with acting and writing.

Q. Making music is one thing, selling it is another. What types of strategies do you use in promoting your artistic work and getting it heard by the proper professionals?

i use electronic, word-of-mouth, and grassroots strategies in promoting my artistic work and therefore get it heard by the proper professionals.

Q. In regards to wheeling and dealing, how important do you feel business knowledge is to making it in an industry filled with much heartache?

in regards to wheeling and dealing, i feel business knowledge is very important to making it in an industry filled with much heartache.

Q. Let's fast forward to 5 years from now. What advice would you offer to struggling independent artists?

i would offer to struggling independent artists the following advice: hold true to your vocation, no matter how insignificant you may seem; it is a real fortune in the changing tides of time.

Q. Most successful artists are involved in charitable organizations that stand for a cause that hits close to home. In that regard, once you reach success, what charitable cause(s) would you like to be involved in and why?

i would like to be involved in the "back to africa" cause, in the environmental charitable cause, and in the "better cars" charity because most successful artists are involved in charitable organizations that stand for a cause that hits close to home.

Well, we thank you for taking the time to interview with us and certainly wish you the best in your music career endeavors. There you have it ladies and gentlemen, an inside look into the mind of an independent artist struggling to bring their hard work to fruition in an industry where perseverance and thick skin means survival. No one said it would be easy.

thank you, artistopia. i appreciate your time in planning this interview.
