#10 HerMusicWorld Podcast with Singer, Songwriter & Producer Coreena

Zoey Zoley in conversation with Singer, Songwriter & Producer Coreena Brown

I'm hungry, let's eat – was the first song that Coreena wrote and composed as a young girl. After performing it at the Dinner table for her family, she realized what an effect she can have on people through music, and her family kept on singing it once in a while. 

The microphone has pulled her onto stage at a young age and into the world through her adulthood.

Meanwhile, she is pursuing her creativity and life in Berlin, Germany, the city that, in her words, never sleeps. People just need Gluehwein in winter and the party continues, plus people here don't hold back on information and help you in any way they can. 

I believe you will have to chuckle once in a while listening to us because so did I. 

Coreena's inspiring laughter and insightful thoughts, ideas, and impressions on the music industry, especially for BIPOC musicians, like herself, will draw you into the conversation.  

Let's hear about the people who inspire her, her moments of emancipation, challenges as a female and BIPOC music producer, ways of settling into a new home, in a different place in the world. 

And of course, I had to ask about the changes she would like to see in the music industry from her perspective.

Some wish that keeps repeating in every conversation that I had so far is the call for a respectful and appropriate compensation. But in her case, it's also the rightful demand towards the music industry to not only benefit continuously from BIPOC artists and their influence and pioneering in music. But to also put them into leading positions, where decisions are made, and the money arrives at the respective source of creativity. 

I surely hope this will change for the better, that also women* like Coreena are not doubted in their full potential and taken seriously within the music industry. I would also like to see and hear a bigger intersectional diversity in the media, so that every human being can see other creative humans that they can identify with! That would be the ultimate gift for people like Coreena who show up in the media business to represent people who are right now still marginalized. 

PS: You can find all kinds of links to projects, musicians and associations in the show notes.
