I want people to feel the emotion, try to relate to the way that I look or want to be like me in the way that I'm living or whatever.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
When I was a little bitty kid, I was listening to the stuff my parents were listening to. My mom was a huge Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige fan. My dad had a cover band that I sang with, and he loved Parliament, Prince, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton, the blues, James Brown.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
The studio is the place for me to really confront my feelings and get it all out. I love being in that space and creating, doing what I love, making art.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I don't know if I have a favorite part of being an artist. I do love being onstage and performing with my band. I also love rehearsing with them and creating the show, that's always a fun part. But there's also nothing like being in the studio and being able to get back to myself and get back to my feelings.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
Giving, making an impact on people is something I definitely got from my mother.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
You can't avoid heartbreak, you can't avoid a lot of things. You have to go through them in order to become the person you're going to be.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
A lot of women need to know that they don't have to conform, they don't have to take no for an answer.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
People at school knew I sang and that this was what I was gonna do, but I was pretty private and low-key.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I used to tell people when I was 15 or 16 that I'd never be that girl who goes through this, gets her heart broken, falls for this guy, but I ended up being her.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
When you're growing up as a young woman, you develop all of these insecurities, and then there's boys and all of that stuff on top of that.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I've become a voice for young women who are growing up and uncomfortable being vulnerable, uncomfortable with changes, heartbreak - and becoming jaded.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
As an artist, you're very sensitive about your art. And you feel like, 'Am I doing the right thing? Am I making the right music?'
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I wanted it to be about the music, so maintaining that is kind of difficult. But it's something I found made the most sense because it's about the music at the end of the day. That's what I'm most passionate about.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I guess 16, 17, 18, that whole period was a dark time for me. I guess it was a hormonal thing, going through all those changes as a young woman, learning who you are and being comfortable with yourself, and also, which goes along with that, boys. It was definitely an unhappy, 'Who am I?' period. 'Who am I gonna be?'
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
Before anybody knew who I was, I was just working on what I love and having fun with it, and I'm sticking with that - because, ultimately, that's what people want to see.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I learned anything can go wrong on tour, still, you have to put on the best show you can.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I like to pair clothes or accessories that wouldn't usually go together.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
Throughout my teenage years or whatever, I've been so uncomfortable, or I've made mistakes and I've felt like I'm the only one who has done that.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
People do things on Instagram and put on a front and try to live a life that they may not really want to live, or don't truly believe in. And that's the life that they portray. That's not the real them. We all have to be more aware of what is that's really happening inside. Are we really standing for what we believe in?
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I've learned a lot about myself through my music and the way people perceive it, and the goal is for the success not to change me.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I think people often tend to listen to music with their eyes and not their ears, and I just wanted my work to shine, and to be able to convey my message without imagery taking away from that.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
As a young woman, I experienced high school and heartbreak, and the music I started to write was a little bit more poetic, and more inspired by spoken word. The real raw emotional things that sit in the back of our minds, that you were afraid to say? That's how I started to write my music. And that's how 'H.E.R. Volume One' came about.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
As a black woman, I've always had to work hard to earn my respect as a musician - and as a young woman, too. As a writer, in certain sessions or certain rooms people think, 'Who's kid is this? Who's this little girl?' I've had to prove myself.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I've been writing since I was five years old. I used to write poetry, and I loved to rhyme.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
People have always tried to imitate, but at the end of the day, no one can do me better than I can do me, you know?
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I wanted people to just accept the music for what it is without any judgement and being anonymous was the best way to do that.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I'm always thinking about Prince when I make my music and how genre-less he was and just how versatile and amazing he was on the stage. I'm so inspired by him.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
It's not a popularity contest to me. It should always be about the music.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
It's a great thing to hear people putting me up to this standard and putting me on this pedestal and expecting greatness from me, but at the end of the day, I'm just trying to be a better me as an artist musically.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I really just wanted it to be about the music, and get away from, 'Who is she with?' and 'What is she wearing?'
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
I want women to really feel how honest and vulnerable I am and to understand that they are not alone and that these are all human emotions.
Quote by -Gabriella Wilson
We live in an era of social media. We care more about looks, popularity and followers than about real music. And I wanted to get away from that.
