Y'all have been asking for an Adéla episode for a LONGGG time, and with her debut album out last week, it was finally time to answer the call!!Adela has been an artist to watch of mine for a WHILE now. Since she released her first single as an independent artist.The signs of becoming a major popstar are all there. The performance, vocals, artistry, visuals, storytelling and worldbuilding. Every time I hear her speak she reminds me of a young Lady Gaga. She has so much hunger and drive that I can't wait to see her career explode from here0:00 - Intro6:57 - Adéla Dream Academy11:10 - What makes Adéla so different?15:52 - The Opposite of Katseye17:26 - What Adéla stands for20:07 - Adéla's songwriting22:09 - Adéla's Branding23:09 - Bangerz Miley Cyrus25:37 - Adéla Branding (cont)30:00 - Adéla is a DANCER

It's been a long time since we did a solo video essay!!! I missed it so muchThe biggest shoutout to  @Lindsiann  and her video that inspired this one:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN_OGOPI92g This week I wanted to do a deep dive on the creative process itself. As someone with Adhd and a chronic procrastination problem, this is something I think about ALL the time. How sometimes, spending so much time on the planning process, creative ideas, and brainstorming can actually be a form of procrastination as an artist.I've always been obsessed with books like The Artist's Way or The Creative Act and hopefully this video gives a similar feeling0:00 - Intro 3:47 - The Perfectionist 7:24 - How to stop being a perfectionist 9:31 - The Potentialist 13:34- stop being addicted to potential 16:45 - The Strategist 21:24 - The Overthinker 24:05 - Complacency Kills Ambition 26:06 - How to stop overthinking

You all have NOOOO idea how long I have been waiting to share this episode with you. WE HAVE FREAKING KATSEYE ON THE PODCAST!!!!I have been making videos about Katseye since before they even debuted, and am fascinated by the idea of a global girl group being trained and developed with K-pop methodology.

LONG TIME NO SEEEEE!!! I missed you all so much :') Kind of an out of pocket episode topic this week-- but I was looking at the Spotify 20 year anniversary celebration data where my No. 1 streamed artists of all time was Troye Sivan. Specifically, his first album Blue Neighborhood. I remember being a closeted teenager listening to it for the first time, and felt chills across my whole body. It was the first time I ever heard music that I felt spoke that directly and deeply to me. It singlehandedly set me down the path of life that I am on, and none of this channel would have ever happened without that album 0:00 - Intro 1:50 - Catching up 4:09 - Blue Neighborhood Lore 6:52 - Album Review 9:35 - SUBURBIA 12:28 - HEAVEN 17:31 - The Blue Neighborhood Trilogy 24:02 - LOST BOY 28:28 - Troye's Evolution #troyesivan #blueneighborhood #albumreview

What actually makes a pop star?Because becoming an artist isn’t just about hits.It’s about narrative, image, influence, longevity, and cultural impact.I've been loving this "7 levels of" trend on Youtube so I thought it would be fun to do my own take on it!In this video, I break down the 7 levels of pop stardom — from emerging artists to global icons — and how each stage reflects a different relationship between music, identity, and culture.Some of the artists we talk about in today's video: Zara Larsson, Pink Pantheress, Addison Rae, Katy Perry, Charlie Puth, Troye Sivan, Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, Tyler the Creator, Harry Styles, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, and more!#musicreview #zaralarsson #beyonce #ladygaga #billieeilish

Welcome back to Nicky at Night!This week we had the opportunity to sit down with Jesse Rutherford from  @TheNBHD  . I can remember when their first album came out back in 2013, and listening to Sweater Weather for the first time in highschool.Now over 10 years later, that song has become the #3 most streamed song on all of Spotify.What's interested me so much about the NBHD, is they are this time capsule of the various stages of the Music Industry's relationship with the internet. Starting in the Myspace & Tumblr Era, into the peak of the Youtube Music Video Era, and then seeing their music absolutely EXPLODE again on Tiktok0:00 - Intro1:25 - How did The NBHD meet?3:08 - Myspace & Tumblr Era of Music6:59 - Tiktok's Impact on Music7:48 - Band Culture10:00 - Sweater Weather13:00 - Relationships17:13 - "Getting the Band back together"22:47 - Ultrasound40:00 - Jesse's Music Recs#jesserutherford #theneighbourhood #musicinterview

The entertainment industry is changing... 10 years ago, it felt like no Creator was taken seriously by the world of Traditional Entertainment. Today, we have Creators who are Emmy winners, Grammy nominated, producing full blown TV Shows, and just about every Red Carpet you can think of down to the MET Gala has some Creator hosting it and doing interviews. So what changed? Why is the industry finally opening up? And how will this boom of Creator led Media change Hollywood as we know it.Well today we sat down with Jordan Newman, Head of Content Partnerships at Spotify to talk about exactly this! His role is focused on Podcasts, and working with Creators who are actively trying to build their own IP and launch full blown shows. 0:00 - Intro 3:30 - The Traditional Media Method 5:04 - The power of Community 12:00 - Why are Actors starting podcasts? 16:59 - The business of podcasting 22:43 - Creating IP 27:25 - The Future of the Creator Economy 43:40 - Predictions #creatoreconomy #entertainmentindustry #socialmediamarketing
