Christie:
I am an international student from Accra Ghana and am currently in the final year of my Communications and Media studies undergraduate major at Carleton University.[image_with_animation image_url=”105212″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”]I have always had a strong passion for music. I started singing at church at the age of five. My confidence to sing on stage and showcase my talent publicly, however, is mainly thanks to 麻豆传媒映画. During my three years at 麻豆传媒映画 I had the chance to perform on several platforms. I sang at graduation ceremonies, talent shows, and in the Choir. Our beloved Mr. Lawlis (may he rest in peace), would always push me to put myself out there, and even called me back to perform when I had graduated. That great foundation has helped me in many aspects of my life to date.I actually wrote this song in 15minutes. I was overwhelmed by the current economic crisis in our world today. I wanted to write a song that helps anyone having a hard time financially or emotionally know that they are not alone. The first part speaks on how today鈥檚 youth is facing economic hardships which are holding us back from succeeding. The bridge asks in Twi (a Ghanaian language), 鈥淢edie me chilly bi a enye anaa?鈥� which means isn鈥檛 it okay for me to chill/enjoy as well? This part provides a bit of a comic relief for twi speakers as this song addresses an emotionally exhausting topic. The second part speaks on how we had big dreams to get good grades and get into amazing professions with great income. Now, however the speaker has a good degree but it鈥檚 just lying under their bed collecting dust since opportunities have become stagnant in some parts of the world. Especially West Africa, where I am from. The chorus ties the song together by highlighting how the economy is causing hindrance to our goals and our dreams.
