Ludacris - Independent Artist Spotlight: Lu lyrics
[Ludacris - Independent Artist Spotlight: Lu lyrics]
When it comes to Lu
There really isn't anything that she doesn't
Do she's a singer, songwriter, rapper
Producer, plays multiple instruments
And is the owner and founder
Of my own label ROAM
SOSHAL If that's not enough
Of a well-rounded background
She is also a soldier in the US Air Force
And is a student who
Just received a full-ride
Scholarship for a Global Security
And Intelligence degree and
She is of Latina and Native American descent
Needless to say, Lu is an impressivе person
And an artist in three short years
She has built thе base of
Her music career and has already amassed 3
000 monthly average listeners on Spotify
She has crafted a
Sound all her own, her songs
Are clever, catchy, and cool
And she has her eyes on a big future
She has a new single out titled "Dirty
Dirty" so we took some time
To catch up with her
And learn more about her music, story
And future
We'll certainly get to her music, but first
Let's learn a bit about her background and
How she got started in music
Here's what the blossoming star told us
About her beginning in music
"I got started in music through
School funded projects some folks
Came to our hood and essentially
"adopted" me and some
Other kids - we were given
Free music lessons and
Taught everything about music theory
Looking back on it
I think about how lucky I was the kids
Who could afford to pay were probably
Paying thousands of dollars that's
How I learned
Piano our schools also taught latin
Music and since we're right on the border
They made the effort to teach us about
Our culture and I think that's
Why I view music the way I
Do now with that sense of
Responsibility i learned violin
Classical guitar
And some more Latin instruments we
Mainly learned Spanish and Mexican
Music and we also had
Teachers from the Dominican
Republic come and teach us Bachata, Salsa
Etc then one day this older kid from the high
School came to visit and I remember he
Started playing one of my
Favorite rap songs on
The piano and my mind was blown i'd
Only played classical songs on the
Piano at that point
So I went home and started teaching
Myself all my favorite songs
And that eventually led to me
Learning how to produce
My own songs but I consider my REAL start
In music happening in about 2018 when
I went to Seoul i didn't know anything
About the country or the culture
I didn't speak the language at the
Time i had just gotten a
Real job and money for the
First time and I wanted
To go somewhere I'd never been before
So I booked the flight
The whole time I was there I didn't know what
Was going on but I remember
The one thing that was
Familiar was music and that really
Touched me because I
Thought it was so poetic i remember
Thinking "music really does tie
Us all together" so as soon as I got off
The plane I decided I was gonna go all out on
Music that trip led to me starting my label
It even led to me talking to
You right now the first time I was ever in a
Recording studio was in Seoul"
On her major influences, she had this to say
"Anything that's different, new
Innovative! That's what my major music
Influences tend to be
In general something that makes me feel that
Fire, that passion something that makes
Me remember why I love
Music anything that stands out
Automatically inspires me like
"How come I didn't think of
That" or "Man, this is such a good idea
I see what they did there i get
What they were going for" because it
Makes me want to do something too
It's like the feeling of
A relay race I guess passing the baton to me
That's the whole point of all of this
In our years of working with artists
This almost spiritual tie to music
Is one we've seen before
And we love this in-depth love and care for
Her music are reflected in the songs
That she makes that makes it
A good time to turn our attention
To her latest single, "Dirty, dirty"
"Dirty, Dirty"
First, here is the track for you to check out
With her growing fan base and
An incredible new single
It's clear this is just the start for Lu we
Asked her about what her overall goals were
"I wanna be one of the biggest
Most influential, and respected artists
But it's not for
Myself i just feel like if I can
Innovate, if I can create something new
And I can be on the
World stage then that's my
Way of saving my dying culture
Native Americans indigenous people
If I can use my ability to speak
A lot of languages and relate
Directly to more people and make them
Feel loved and appreciated then
It'll go both ways i guess that's
A lot of pressure to put
On myself but it's how I feel
And the scary thing is
I know I'm gonna succeed at it"
A ton of musicians feel a larger
Calling and that is clearly the
Case here lu's mission drives her and
It helps make her music
Really stand out before we let her
Go we gave her the
Chance to tell you why you
Should check out her music
"You should check out my music because
It's FOR YOU wherever you are
And whoever you are it was
Made with you in mind"
