Cuz it's so long...and there is a character limit per post I'm gonna have to do this in parts till I figure something else out...
Part 1
1-How long have you been singing?
I’ve always enjoyed humming to music or just sitting there listening to music ever since I was small, but I actually started singing when I was 12 years old at a cousins wedding. That’s how everything started.
I grew up with a typical Italian family and after I had finished singing the whole family jumped me saying how good I was etc etc, so after that day I just started singing more and more.
2-How did you get “discovered”?
Honestly, it happened so fast or maybe it seemed that way because I was so excited. I had a friend of mine who knew that I was looking to get somewhere in singing...and so he told me that he knew a Freestyle Artist named Zoe. I was very shocked and in away I didn’t believe him so he tells me to give him all the information about my self so he can pass it on to Zoe. So I took the chance and gave him all my contact info… the next morning I found a message on my cell phone from Zoe speaking about taking her Melody Classes. Anyways (lol) to cut the story shorter I started taking Melody (vocal) classes with Zoe and she is the one who discovered that I had the voice and the potential, and told me about the Planet Freestyle Compilation. We took it from there and next thing you know after months of training, dedication and work I recorded “Next to you”.
3-Freestyle isn’t the most popular choice of music. Why do you still sing it?
I grew up with Freestyle, it’s apart of me. I grew up with listening to Stevie B and Lil Suzy, Shannon and all the known artists. My cousins were Freestyle "Ginos" haha! I don’t know it’s true it’s not THE MOST popular choice of music but I love it, and I believe it’s the lyrics in the music that got me and just the rhythm and flow of the music ...like a Spanish melody. There’s no other explanation I just Love it haha!!
4-Do you plan on singing any other types of dance?
Yes!! Most defiantly!! I love Freestyle just as much as I love Euro .and vocal trance. Actually I am having a new Euro song coming up soon! I want to put out music that people can relate to and people can put themselves in the music and be like "Hey, this is me!" Its not just about the music or the beat, it’s about what the listener is going to feel when they listen to your song... I’m up to doing anything really whatever makes me and of course the listener happy.
A-How about other types of music, such as rock or hip hop?
To tell you the truth they are both great genres of music, but I don’t see my self in hip hop (lol)... Rock maybe a smooth rock track would be nice, like a Bon Jovi type of song or a Def Leopard type of track... I can’t really listen to too much of Heavy Metal or anything hard like that because after 10 seconds I get a headache (lol). But hey who knows what can happen in the future.
B-How about Pop?
A pop song would be great too... I think Pop is closer to dance and freestyle then anything else so I would consider doing a Pop track definatly.
5-You’re new to the scene, what is the hardest part about making a name for yourself?Well (lol) being new is not easy I think it would be the fact that I’m a young artist, I have one song so far, so its harder to get out there ... When you’re a young artist like I am you just need the faith and patience to know that your still new, things will come around and people will start noticing you in time. It doesn’t happen over night, you have to work at it.
6-It’s a tough business. Stress and hard work are just some of the negative sides to it. What is the one thing that makes it all worth it?
It is a very tough business and very stressful, but what business isn’t? Life is based that way you have your ups and you have your downs, you just have to learn to deal with them...and in the end there’s always something that makes it all worth it. For me what makes it worth it is the feeling when I get on stage... When I am on stage I like to feel my music and feel how the crowd is liking it and Its amazing to see when those people are out there dancing to YOUR song and singing along with Your Lyrics its an incredible feeling that I will never be able to explain, its a feeling that I never thought I'd feel before and THATS what makes it all worth it! for me.. just knowing that you go through bad times and you go through good times, but for me when I am on stage all the bad things disappear and I just focus on what’s there in front of me and move on to a whole new different page.
