Living with faith on my hardwork
I am Amal Ravindran. Im from India. I'm 17 yrs old. I do dream of becoming a Pop singer right from my childhood and I'm trying so hard to live my dreams. I used to write my own songs since I was 14. After an year and a half approximately a few music people in my city got interested in me and they tried to make a record out of it. But they did warned me about their inability to market the same just because of the huge financial influence needed and due to the fewer audience for Pop music in the locality. Also they were not a record label or record producers to help get noticed. But then I wasn't willing enough to drop the chance I got and also as they too were interested they did record my songs, which still hangs without proper marketing. But months before this probably after I wrote my songs, I tried contacting some of the local recording studios and audio companies in various states. I did contacted 2 studios and response was negative and I tried with 3 bands in the city from whom I got a similar response and also I met 3 local music people who also rejected all just because its pop music what I'm doing. I purposely have been uploading videos of myself singing covers of various pop and rock artists to expose my singing. Its still a mere chance to get noticed there even. But I believe I could do my best.! Success stories like Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga or Susan Boyle has inspired me alot even though I was crying behind when I was watching them go so high and successful in their career. Being ambitious and holding on to it in life was and still is the hardest thing. But these happenings never made me weak and it just makes an urge for me to work even harder. But I feel its a major problem that when I say I'm from India, the Hollywood music Industry is likely to take less interest in me. But I believe there will be people who notice me someday and I really will be able to live my dreams.
