Astronaut |
|||
Astronaut's voice-forward production style ensures his commanding lyrics have the space needed to establish a place at the top of the rap/reggae hierarchy. |

Astronaut is a rap/reggae talent of the most stringent specification; authentically distressed by the double-standards of Western culture, chipped and weathered into a hard-as-hell geometry by personal experiences of war (and peace), and absolutely ready to do battle with anyone who would contest his right to redirect the trajectory of music - and the social discourse it generates. Poised and elegant behind the guttural delivery of his constantly dynamic material, Astronaut's intense personna has been streamlined by time to yield an image that could well be the next face of the rap/reggae genre; and no one doubts that the music industry needs vigorous new blood like his to displace the moribund philosophies of sales and marketing which presently ordain its fate. Independent reporter Lily Clark recently interviewed him to talk about his desire to create, his new single 'Trust Issues', and his expectations for the coming days. LAUREN: When did you first get that feeling that your music career was gaining momentum? LAUREN: It is often said that great art arises from difficult experience. Is there something in your life experience thus far that you would describe as the ‘catalyst’ or ‘fuel’ for your desire to create music? LAUREN: How would you characterize yourself as an artist/musician? (Ex. Down-to-earth, serious, fun-loving, complicated…)
LAUREN: What has your experience been like working with the other people on your team? LAUREN: What do you find most rewarding about being an artist? What do you find most challenging? LAUREN: Describe your best or most memorable performance. LAUREN: What advice would you give to young, aspiring artists out there who are unsure and need guidance? LAUREN: What's next for you as an artist? Is there a new single in the works? If so, what can you tell us about it? LAUREN: Thank you for the interview! We look forward to hearing more from you very soon! © 2024 Marquix Global Network |
