One of my favorite parts of this show is getting to reflect back on the complexities of person's career, especially in the realms of music and art. So, it's an extra treat when I get the opportunity to talk with someone just climbing up that ladder. Capri is a young Canadian pop singer and songwriter now living in LA. She holds a Guinness World Record for singing 80 anthems in 80 countries in their native languages. Her songs and videos have amassed millions of streams and one of her recent releases, Arcade, hit #17 on the Billboard charts. We talk about all this, and more, including the recent TikTok shut down controversy and the marketing strength of the platform itself.

New Zealand has a knack for producing talented country-pop musicians.  Self-taught Christchurch based musician Karra Rhodes has just released a single, ‘Why Can't I Love You Less', a full album on the horizon.  Rhodes loves a challenge, juggling law exams, study, writing, and raising two young children as she pushes forward with her music career.  Writing is a particular passion of hers, having been a ghost-writer for two years as well as writing her own debut fantasy novel.  She told Newstalk ZB's Mike Hosking that music is her downtime, getting fidgety if she tries to watch TV and instead heading over to the piano or guitar.  Currently Rhodes is writing a song a week and plans to record an entire album of work in August.  “We still have a few songs to release before that, to tick people over, but we're recording, myself and Greg, are recording in August.”  Her big picture plan is to get out into the industry as a full songwriter.  “I love making my own music, I love writing,” Rhodes told Hosking.  “For me, it's not so much about getting out there and, you know, internationally touring, I just, I want a reason to write."  “I want a reason for the whole, for the songs that are right to have a home rather than, than disappear into the shadowlands of music that will never be heard.”   Rhodes has recently gotten into toplining, which is when musicians who struggle at creating lyrics or melodies for their music hire a songwriter to create them for them.  “it's fantastic because you're getting like, a whole new source of inspiration.”  She said that being a songwriter, sometimes it's easy to get stuck in the same chords, the same thing each time, so having someone else's musical beds is really good.  Being self-taught, Rhodes is used to muddling through and improvising.  “If you put a sheet of music in front of me, I'd probably struggle. If you gave me all the chords, I could just make it up.”   The ability to improvise is a skill Rhodes values and is a gift she thinks more people have than they realise, they just lack the technical knowledge to follow through.  “You want to be able to improvise on the spot, make it sound like something that you like, rather than somebody telling you what you should be doing.”  “You should be able to come up with something you enjoy."  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the midst of the Biden administration's disastrous military withdrawal from Afghanistan, top Pentagon officials were working to get the Secretary of Defense to sign a major climate change initiative, according to emails obtained. The current administration is a “corrupt mob” perpetrating a “disgusting scheme” against former President Donald Trump, according to Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight, who warned of a “civil war” taking place against “all of us.” Mehdi Yarrahi, a prominent Iranian pop singer, was arrested by Iranian authorities on Monday after releasing a song celebrating the anniversary of the Mahsa Amini protests coming up next month. A pollster for the super PAC supporting former President Donald Trump says ex-U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley is surging in Iowa and New Hampshire after last week's first presidential debate while Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) holds steady in a distant second place.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What makes a great performance? Yes, the quality of the music is a part of it, as is the skill of the musician. But the really successful musicians have all of that plus a thing called “stage presence.” They have the ability to connect with their audience on a personal level, and create truly meaningful performances. But why do some musicians have great stage presence, and others don't? Are people just born with it, or is it a skill that can be developed? In this episode, Christine is joined by pop singer/songwriter, Felice, to talk about stage presence and connecting with the audience.

Bashar Murad's danceable riffs and live concerts and videos - filled with bubbles, enormous hats, and layers and layers of veils - have earned him the nickname "Palestinian Lady Gaga" from his fans. And much like Born This Way is an anthem of equality, Murad's songs challenge conservative social norms and push for LGBTQ rights while also challenging the Israeli occupation of the West Bank. Earlier this summer, Murad's concert in the West Bank city of Ramallah was cancelled under threats by anti-LGBTQ activists. As an outspoken proponent of LGBTQ rights, Murad is challenging both the external conflict Palestinians face with Israel and the internal conflicts imposed by a conservative society. This week, NPR's Daniel Estrin speaks with Bashar Murad about his music, his activism, and how anti-LGBTQ events that unfolded during the summer have added to the complexities that can come with being a voice for both the Palestinian and the LGBTQ communities.In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment that will help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
