Do you ever worry about how other people perceive you as an artist? This question is particularly loaded for women and gender expansive musicians because there’s so much tied up with how femininity should be presented and received (and even what it is).
It’s for this reason that Isobel is sharing a Golden Nugget from EP#30 when she chatted with the amazing London based musician and producer, BISHI who spoke so candidly and articulately about how she’s been received over the years.
BISHI has always had a very strong visual element to her music, which has sometimes led to intense scrutiny and judgement. But it’s interesting hearing how growing up surrounded by London’s queer community helped her to approach her visual identity with a sense of boldness and play.
