When I was twelve, I started making singing videos on YouTube that started gaining traction, so I decided to take things to the next level and entered in a singing competition in Los Angeles where I then found management and began recording and releasing songs.
I fell in love with music even more than I knew possible the second I entered the studio, I knew this is what I needed to do for the rest of my life. From years old I spent time releasing music and performing all over my home state New Jersey as well as some shows in New York.
The summer I graduated high school, I moved to Los Angeles to make things more real. Absolutely not! When I was 12, I was fearless and had no cares in the world. When I got older, I started letting the negative comments affect me and definitely struggled with the fear of getting hate online.
Moving to LA was another struggle for me, being so young and leaving my best friends and family behind was very difficult. Being in an unfamiliar place not knowing anyone was super scary. Another recent struggle has been financing, so I work three jobs to fund this project.
I really think the struggling period shows how badly you want it and how important it is to keep going and not give up. I am a singer. I sing, record, perform and write. I am an independent artist, meaning I have no management or record label. I am calling the shots, finding upcoming, talented people to work and funding the project myself. I think what sets me apart is my sound. I love writing about life.
Bryant: Making sure the theme is consistent. Alexandra: I think for me, the most challenging aspect is trying to make each song better than the previous one. As I am new to songwriting, I think I put pressure on myself to make it better every time. Alexandra: Oddly enough I always get my best ideas while driving. So I pull over and write my thoughts down.
If not driving, also love writing with the lights off and candles lit.
