HOW TO WRITE ALBUMS WITH SZA

CTRL and SOS are for many - instant classics (I've been bumping SOS since the day it dropped and surely will continue into 2023). But finding that space and style isn't so easy for SZA. As an artist and inspiration, she speaks honestly about the doubts that she feels in her process, and the challenges she faces ring true for myself, and surely across so many creators in here. It was a pleasure to make this video across the holiday season, when life gets loud around us, and it's so easy to lose ourselves and what matters to us in the noise.
As usual, thanks so much to the community in here, I hope you've enjoyed these videos over the last few months, and I hope Creative Minds can be a valuable piece of your creative toolbox in 2023 ✌️+❤️

SZA is an artist in the truest sense

[@Kindofalot]

Please interview more female creatives if you can! This was so inspirational, love her ❤

[@creativemindsyoutube]

Love hearing that it was inspirational. I try to be intentional in here about the artists I cover. When someone visits this channel, I want them to feel like they can find artists they relate to, or act/look like them. I also stay aware that the need to do this is a journey, and I will get better as I go forward, but be sure that keeping a diversity across background and gender is always a part of that thinking process. Thanks for dropping the comment, and trust there will be a ton of videos on female artists across 2023.

[@Rojina-tj8yr]

Please do Beyonce next!

[@creativemindsyoutube]

I rep this comment massively. I've looked at some of her interviews, and think I would want to pull in her written interviews (magazine etc.), so some research needed, but definitely consider it in the works.

[@devonhoward333]

@@creativemindsyoutube yeah in recent years she seems to only have done written interviews or her documentaries. awesome can't wait! Love your videos.
