The Singing Tips Blog - The Recap Show (Part 2) "Honoring our special guest, Azania Noah
In this episode, we honored our special guest, Azania Noah who appeared on Tip #22 (Song Topics) on October 15, 2017.
Key points from Azania's speech:
- Azania started writing poetry before the age of 15. After 15, she began writing songs as a way to express herself and her feelings.
- Azania's debut album, "Rising" took her some time to write but she wanted to get it right and exactly how she wanted it. Her song, "Looking Ahead" is a song about how time passes fast and that you can't dwell on the past. You have to make every day count. She received positive feedback from her fans.
- Azania offered great suggestions to beginner songwriters: take an online songwriting course or buy a songwriting book to learn the craft of songwriting. Once you get the skill, work on releasing your own music.
- Azania recently founded The Singer Elite Community on Facebook with a membership over 120+ members and it's growing. It is a community of singers of various levels who network, connect and encourage each other. She also posts her singing/music business tips as well as other resources in the community.
