Teletubby 147,534 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 As the chief singer, songwriter, producer, performer and art director of her project, Rosalía is at once a broad collaborator and an auteur overseeing every deliberate detail. “I don’t care how small your contribution was to the song, I’m going to put it in the credits. That’s how confident I am as a musician,” she said. “But I know it’s detrimental to putting light on me as a producer. Because the moment people see men and a woman on a list, they assume — you know how it is.” “I’ve seen what happens to Björk. I’ve seen other women that have been through that,” Rosalía added. “But the time I spend — 16 hours a day for months — that’s crazy.” She tutted at the audacity of doubting “feminine creative forces.” Rosalía about sampling: “It’s been forever that we, as humans, when we create, we sample,” she said. “From ideas comes another idea. When I see that Francis Bacon does a painting based on a Valasquez one, I think that’s sampling.” “As long as you do it with respect — and with love — I think it always makes sense,” she added. source "You b*tch!" ~ Rat Boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I agree with everything she said. As for sampling I wish though that more artists used raw real instruments and created things from scratch so that they could find a new sound, and we could also hear something different, less metallic, less industrial, less "fake" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspiria 10,683 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 I do wish some of these big artists who talk so much about female empowerment in the industry would actually empower women in the industry by, like, employing them lol. You look at the (massive) list of Motomami credits and its 99% men. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is an issue of course, but i can only assume artists work with what they can get their hands on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well this is definitely true, but the ONLY way this is ever going to change is if big artists with a lot of creative freedom like her choose to hire more women and give them opportunities. Obviously there are talented women out there, they just never get a foot in the industry because no one hires them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
