#India arie songs acoustic soul how to#
Just like in my everyday, personal life growing up, one of my biggest lessons of the last 10 years has been learning how to speak my mind, speak up, have hard conversations with people, say things I want to say even though I know people might not like it. India.Arie: What helped me want to expand the subject matter and the sound of this album is because I'm expanding as a person. (and) addressing my opinion about what's going on in the world.ĪP: What sparked this kind of sound and approach? And also lyrically, just talking about more than just my world, my internal world, which is what I normally like to talk about. It really is my interpretation of world music. With the production of this album, I made a world music album, all kinds of sounds, all kinds of guest appearances, all kinds of different people from different cultures.
India.Arie: I always considered myself a world music artist.
It's not a tired that sleep fixes, it's tired that you have to go home and fix. It's really a common experience as a woman in the music industry because we're wired to be emotional, so if you have these things that are kind of like assaulting emotionally over a long period of time, your emotional body gets kind of worn out, you get tired. I was working so hard I almost had another breakdown.". India.Arie: It's funny because you know how everybody watches TV, everybody reads magazines, all of us, and you constantly (see) there's (one) or two or three female artists who talk about, "I had another breakdown, I had to take a little break. How'd you prepare yourself for a new album again? AP: It's been three years since your last release.
