Following her nomination at the Birmingham Music Awards and her new song ‘Lost 4 Wordz’, R&B artist ROZZZQWEEN discussed her music, inspiration, and future plans with us.

• What made you want to pursue a career in the music industry?

I wanted to pursue a career in the music industry because I’ve always been inspired by the bright lights and the release of creativity. There’s something about it that awakens my soul. 

• From ‘Rudeboy’ to your newest release ‘Lost 4 Wordz ’, your music is a raw expression of your past relationships and romantic adventures. Do you believe talking about these topics and experiences can empower and uplift women?

For me empowering women is a big task that I definitely seek to pursue, however, I think empathizing and expressing my experiences through music would captivate them and I think it’s important to have relatability in music otherwise how else does an artist captivate another’s soul?

• Can you tell us more about your creative process? Are you the type to finish a song in a few hours or do you take time to nourish an idea for a song?

The word “inspire” actually derives from the Latin word “inspirare” which means to be blown into by god and I truly believe that god blows ideas into my soul which I’m able to regurgitate. 

• How does it feel to be nominated for the best r&b and soul act at the Birmingham Music Awards 2022?

It was such an honour to be nominated in my own city. I can’t lie I cried a little bit. It was such an incredible experience! 

• What are your plans for the rest of the year?

The rest of the year consists of me releasing visuals and more music of diverse genres. I really want to push my creativity to the maximum this year. I live in London now and I see all the lights in London and they inspire me wholeheartedly.
