44. RESEARCH: INTERVIEW WRITING

Here are a few interviews from one of my favorite artists 'Jhené Aiko', that I used as inspiration for my interview with my artist chosen. I decided to structure mine similarly as these interviews would be asking my artist about both music and personal things to allow the readers to get a better insight into the artist. I feel as though this makes the reader feel a lot more involved in what is going on in the artists' life, in this way there is a personal relationship forming between the artist and reader.

The first interviewers approach is my favourite, there is a very relaxed feel to the interview and we are able to get a deeper understanding of Jhené's personality and plans for her future project. I aimed to incorporate a very relaxed feel into my own interview with the musician and I ensured to ask what it was that, the new project would contain. This allows the reader an insight into what to expect and keeps them interested through anticipation, because he actually gives a hint of when to expect the release and that he was in fact working on something.


The second interview is of good quality also, and the interviewer also asks what the artists' musical inspirations are which is something I decided to include in my own interview. This also gives the reader an idea of what the inspirations are for the music they will be listening to, they can then compare this to the music they will be listening to.

The last interviewer speaks on her journey and the transitions she has experienced, along with her recent tour. I asked my artist what they felt they brought to the industry and why they decided to sign to a particular label as well, this may inspire a reader to make a smarter decision when picking a music label, as they need to feel comfortable.
