Exclusive Interview: Rising Artist Kadia Zhané

Tell us a little more about when you first got into music?
I have always been surrounded by music from a young age. Besides singing around the house when I was younger, I was also in a concert choir. From there, my mother had moved me to Atlanta and had put me in this singing, acting, and dancing agency named A.G.I. They would train us starting off by having us do jumping jacks and then running around this huge room 6 times. From there we would have to belt out a song to build up our stamina. I’ve been training since young.
If you could describe your sound/style in one word, what would it be and why?
That’s really a tough one. I feel like my music can be described with multiple words. If I had to choose one word though, I would have to say universal. My music has been played around the world. It’s very diverse and I can sing and rap in different genres as well in my native tongues of English and Spanish.
What would you say to any aspiring recording artists who look up to your work?
Keep going. No matter how hard it gets, KEEP GOING. It might feel like hell but why would you want to stop there?! I would also say to stay focused on you and your goals. People will try to come and alter your plans and try to convince you that their way is right but ultimately you decide what’s best for you!
What quote or mantra do you live by?
“Nothing is impossible. The word itself says “I’m possible!”” – Audrey Hepburn
What is your hobby outside of music?
I love Cooking, Spending time with my family and traveling. I plan to resume traveling out of the country now that Covid has been lifted.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
In 5 years, I plan to have my own businesses that I am currently working on. I also plan to get into acting as well as create my own charity organization.
Do you have anything new or upcoming we can expect to see from you?
I have new music coming as well as my ep. I also have merch on the way. I am currently working on recording music videos for the singles currently available on all streaming platforms.
What is the inspiration behind your latest song?
All my music stems from previous experiences in my life. The Weekend was actually written outside of the studio. I remember I was home and I had decided to write about my previous situation with a guy. I remember writing, “he wanna have for the weekend”. And the rest was history!
What are your “5 things I wish someone told me when I first started” and why. Please share a story or example for each.
Honestly, the biggest thing I wished someone had told me earlier would be to be patient. It doesn’t happen overnight. It doesn’t look like it but the artists out now have been doing it for years on end.
I would always think to myself that maybe this music life wasn’t for me. Why isn’t this going as planned? But I realized the things I want most I have to work hard for.
Another would be that you have to stay consistent. You have to put out work often and frequently. My thing with this is I am a perfectionist and always want to make sure it’s the best quality of things before I share it with the world! The third would have to be quality over quantity.
This I would say goes with the other reason but it’s true. You can’t just put out anything. You have to have good sound, mixed and mastered and the levels on point. Investment is key! No one will take you seriously if you don’t take your craft seriously and invest. The fourth would be to make sure you have a good team behind you.
I had to deal with people who I thought were really just using my name to get into rooms off of the hard work I have done in the past. They weren’t adding value to my life. They were more of a liability versus being an asset. The fifth and final advice would be make sure you enjoy what you do. Don’t let anyone take the joy out of your talent!
Which tips would you recommend to your colleagues in your industry to help them to thrive and not “burn out”?
I would mainly say pick up other hobbies besides your talent so that way you can feel more alive. I would also advise taking little vacations in between just so you can enjoy and be grateful for the life you are living!
