TYRELL MARTIN IS A 17 YEAR OLD
ASPIRING TO BE AN UPCOMING ARTIST WHO ENJOYS MUSIC. HE IS IN FULL TIME
EDUCATION BUT WANTING TO BRANCH OUT INTO THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AS A MALE SOULFUL
AND R&B ARTIST. IS HE READY?!
1. Let’s
start of by asking what is your favourite music genre?
That’s hard to
say, I don’t really have one I respect and listen to all genre and enjoy it. I
feel that I’ll learn more about music if I listen to different types of songs. On
the other hand it may have to be rob since I’ve been listening to rob music
since I was younger.
2. Do
you have a favourite song that you can’t stop listening to repeatedly?
Hamm, probably
right now it would be royals by lorded because it talks a lot about how people self-indulge
themselves with expensive things and her opinion about where she lives. She
stimulates me to write my songs on what I feel strong about. You should listen
to it sometime.
3. What
inspired you to want to be a soulful artist/musician and who is your
inspiration?
to be honest now
I think about it I’m still contemplating on being an a soulful and rob artist
at my age I feel that I’m too young but my inspiration is Eminem has that kind
of guy who doesn’t care about what he says and the way he raps is just
unbelievable.
4. What
do you do now?
I go college in
east London and I’m doing level 3 extended diploma (biology, chemistry, physics)
and music certificate but music wise not so much, just focusing on college for
now. In my spare time I write my own songs for fun. I guess music is like a
hobby I’d like to never stop doing.
5. Would
you consider going onto x factor next year to be recognised more?
Umm not now,
maybe later on in the years when I feel that my voice is to its full potential
vocally. X factor is a big deal in the up. I will consider it.
6. I
see your guitar is next to you, do you play the guitar when you write songs?
Yes, I’ve been
playing the guitar since I was 10. I feel that playing the guitar while I write
my own songs helps me to think as it helps to make the song I’m creating flow.
7. What
do you want to achieve musically if there are any?
I’ve just finished recording my music video
it’s now on YouTube, visit my channel Tyrell martin. I feel that if I get a lot
of views and likes it would be an encouraging push to peruse into being a
soulful/rob artist.
8. Where
do you see yourself in the next 5 years in the music industry?
Don’t know, I’ll
wait and see on what will happen after I finish college. If anything I want to
be signed to a label in the UK and if I’m lucky start to create my first album.
I always have a backup plan if music is not for me.
This is definitely not my finalised piece of journalism. I still need to think about an interesting back story for the article. I'm still going to put it into In Design so I know where it is going to be placed.
