Key Takeaways
Mumbai, Oct 28 (NationPress) Singer-songwriter Aastha Gill, celebrated for her hits like ‘Kamariya’ and ‘DJ Wale Babu’, has revealed that she has transformed her mindset as an artist, enabling her to better navigate the complexities of the industry.
During a conversation with IANS while promoting her new streaming music reality show ‘I-popstar’, where she serves as a mentor, the singer opened up about her experiences.
Every artist carries the burden of delivering chart-topping hits, with their teams constantly updating them on market trends and expectations.
When asked about the challenges of resisting market pressures, she admitted to IANS, “Honestly, it took me a long time to grasp. I often found myself stuck in the creative process because my commercial instincts overshadowed the artist within me. For nearly two years, I have been actively reshaping my thought process, consciously distancing myself from external noise. It dawned on me two years ago that I had lost my way in my own artistry.”
She elaborated, “In earlier sessions, my thoughts were consumed with the desire to write my own song, to tell my own story. Now, I’ve begun composing and penning my own narrative, free from that distracting noise. I struggled to identify what was amiss for a long time, realizing later that some of my past work may not have aligned with my true self. Gaining this understanding was challenging, but I’ve truly learnt it the hard way.”
‘I-popstar’ is available for streaming on Amazon MX Player.
