Today we’d like to introduce you to Royse.
Royse, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.
I wake up every day grateful of my journey and that I get to pursue my passion of music. Music has helped me heal through self-hatred and self-worth. My first debut album was basically one big therapy session that helped me overcome a lot of challenges. I currently have released only pop music, but I am working on a new type of style that is taking me back to my roots that I am super excited to release. I love that creativity and art grows along right beside the artist.
Has it been a smooth road?
No it has not. Art is never a smooth road, but that’s what makes it so beautiful. You can look back and say I went through that to get to this place. One of my most recent singles is titled, Heavy Lies the Crown, and I wrote this song, to my younger self who struggled with an eating disorder. It also, is a love song to my aunt, who passed away from complications of an eating disorder. I hope that my music can empower people who have struggled in the same way that I have.
Please tell us about your music.
I feel like I am best known for my style of voice, and I am glad that I get to sing as a career.
Let’s touch on your thoughts about our city – what do you like the most and least?
I love the nature and hiking in LA along with the people that I feel are so accepting. I have a hard time with the traffic in LA, and my heart breaks for the growing homeless population in our city. I hope there is a way that we can help more.
