My mother always took my brothers and me to music lessons. There were six children. Our parents attended our concerts and encouraged us to study and enjoy many different types of music.
When I'm in Senegal, I can't just sit in isolation making music. People need my help. And the Senegalese people helped create my music. It comes from the country itself.
I usually write my music on a piano, and I really enjoy performing that way, because that actually shows how the music was in my mind before it actually became an electronic song.
Music has shaped men's fashion, and transposed in a playful and witty manner its riding or military heritage. It is difficult to figure out who leads, but music and fashion are connected genetically.
There's still not as many women in music as men, and I don't really know why. I don't have the answers. I do wish there were more women that played music.
I know if I wasn't making music and acting, I would be involved in the performing arts world in some way. I would be either writing and making music for other artists or producing movies.
You know, sound was still a fairly new thing when I came into movies. And the reason musicals happened is because of sound. They could put music in the picture! That's how it all began.
I come from musical theater, and a lot of musical theater is about accepting fantasy. I think it is more about just being open and accepting.
Abolish music prejudices. Form opinions and love music for itself, not its genre, performer(s) or popularity status.
It occurred to me by intuition, and music was the driving force behind that intuition. My discovery was the result of musical perception.
Music that gentlier on the spirit lies, Than tir’d eyelids upon tir’d eyes; Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies
My hope for the future, not just in the music industry, but in every young girl I meet…is that they all realize their worth and ask for it.
Music, even in situations of the greatest horror, should never be painful to the ear but should flatter and charm it, and thereby always remain music.
If you can't hear me, it's because I'm in parentheses.
You don't hear no artists from Compton showing vulnerability.
Whatever I hear in my head is what I play.
Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
I've always worn earplugs, but I'm sure my hearing's not great.
I'm dying and all I hear are insults!
There's nothing better than hearing someone laugh.
the silence people, hear everything.
