About 2 weeks ago..ok, first of all, I don't even know how I ended up on Myspace (lol) but I came across Yoodee (pronounced yU-dee)'s Myspace music page and immediately blown away. Her vocals= amazing. Production=amazing. Everything just seemed to be on point so OF COURSE I had to spread the word. Here's an email interview I did with her:
-Name - Yoodee Frances
-Age - 21
-Moniker - u-D, bunny, Yood dot F
-Inspiration- New York City, Art, Music, Soul, Pop, Fashion, Jolly Ranchers, Madonna, Prince, & Strength
-Biggest Influence- My parents... They came from Haiti with absolutely nothing, and worked so hard to provide for me and my little sisters. They are the true American dream, they influence me everyday.
-Define "your" sound...- My sound is what I call "Powerpop." I blend the soulfulness of R&B, with the grittiness & heaviness of Hip Hop, and sprinkle a lil bit of fun Pop sound on top.
-Any other forms of art you love?- Besides music? I would say fashion... I've always been into fashion. I even attended Parsons School of Design for a little while. I just love how you can express yourself without saying a word. I also like fine art... going to museums & looking at interesting pieces. Im getting into that more than ever now.
-How long have you been pursuing music? It feels like forever... but its only been about 4 years now with me seriously pursuing music. I grew up in a strict household so I never thought that being a singer was a possibility for me. It wasn't until I moved to New York City after high school that I completely fell in love with it.
-What do you hope to gain from being a musician? I want to impact someone's life with my music & my lyrics. To touch a complete stranger through music regardless of race, religion, or language is so powerful to me, so moving. That's what I want.
-Personal quote... "Work Hard, Play Hard"
NOW, you have to listen to her cover on Alicia Keys' "Unthinkable":
AMAZING!!!
I actually delayed in posting this feature cause I was hoping to meet up with her and get in some pictures of her rather than do the old copy and paste. I still plan on doing so but I just had to get this out there before she blows UP. Which I have faith that she will. You MUST listen to her NEW joint, "Sicker than your average" ...safe to say, she lives up to that title.
