#10 HerMusicWorld Podcast with Coreena Zoey Zoley in conversation
with Singer, Songwriter & Producer Coreena I'm hungry, let's
eat – was the first song that Coreena wrote and composed as a young
girl. After performing it at the Dinner table for her family, she
realized what an effect she can have on people through music, and
her family kept on singing it once in a while. The microphone
has pulled her onto stage at a young age and into the world through
her adulthood. Meanwhile, she is pursuing her creativity and life
in Berlin, Germany, the city that, in her words, never sleeps.
People just need Gluehwein in winter and the party continues, plus
people here don't hold back on information and help you in any way
they can. I believe you will have to chuckle once in a while
listening to us because so did I. Coreena's inspiring
laughter and insightful thoughts, ideas, and impressions on the
music industry, especially for BIPOC musicians, like herself, will
draw you into the conversation. Let's hear about the people
who inspire her, her moments of emancipation, challenges as a
female and BIPOC music producer, ways of settling into a new home,
in a different place in the world. And of course, I had to
ask about the changes she would like to see in the music industry
from her perspective. Some wish that keeps repeating in every
conversation that I had so far is the call for a respectful and
appropriate compensation. But in her case, it's also the rightful
demand towards the music industry to not only benefit continuously
from BIPOC artists and their influence and pioneering in music. But
to also put them into leading positions, where decisions are made,
and the money arrives at the respective source of creativity.
I surely hope this will change for the better, that also women*
like Coreena are not doubted in their full potential and taken
seriously within the music industry. I would also like to see and
hear a bigger intersectional diversity in the media, so that every
human being can see other creative humans that they can identify
with! That would be the ultimate gift for people like Coreena who
show up in the media business to represent people who are right now
still marginalized.
