Seinabo Sey Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Seinabo Sey:

It's really important to me that the songs not only stand out individually but work as a full body of work, too.

We moved to Gambia from Sweden when I was six years old because my dad was from there. It was definitely a culture shock.

I had a hard time when I came back to Sweden and started school, because I looked different. And we moved to a really small town on the west coast of Sweden, and there were no brown people around. It didn't really get any better until I started music school at about 10 years old.

I love hip-hop and soul, but I desperately want to challenge it and see what I can bring to it.

If you don't like Beyonce, then it's hard for me to trust you. It's like not liking world peace.

Sometimes it might seem like I'm using my songs to give other people pointers. But mainly, they're for me, just little notes to myself that I collected, and the wisdom that I've read. I give myself a lot of advice.

Seinabo Sey

I guess one thing that makes my music stand out is that it is quite hard to determine what genre it is.

Seinabo Sey

It was the part of Gambian culture where they give each other advice a lot, how they're always comparing things in order to get a message across... that really influenced the way I write.
