Conversations with Valentina Mami

Today we’d like to introduce you to Valentina Mami.

Hi Valentina, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I grew up with my parents in the entertainment world so I was introduced to this world early on, but it wasn’t until I was in high school I found a passion for music. I started battle rapping for for fun with friends at the Venice skate park, I recorded some songs with YouTube beats and put them on Soundcloud; it wasn’t until I got recruited to be in a girl group and from there I gained a lot of experience and learned how the music game worked. Eventually, the group split up, and I released music independently. I did two years at the Musicians Institute to learn about theory and further my music knowledge. I edit, direct, produce my own music videos, and I also like recording myself and play a big part in mixing the music. I like to do creative release plans and enjoy releasing music!

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It hasn’t been as smooth as I wanted, but I learned working hard and persevering is the way to get ahead. A lot of people make fake promises in this industry and you’ll get let down a lot but you have yourself at the end of the day. It also takes a lot of sleepless nights, investments, and blind faith.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I started as fully focused on being a female rapper and mostly in Spanish but I trained my singing and found a love for it. So I’m that first and I’ve been dancing since I was a kid so dancing has always been a part of my life. I’ve written most of my songs, and I really like editing my own music videos and content.

How do you think about happiness?
I think I’m still getting to know myself, right. Now I’m in a place where just existing makes me happy, whereas before success and recognition for my efforts made me happy but now I am happy just to be alive. My family and my friends make me happy.
