We're back with the rest of the conversation with singer/songwriter Esthero. In this episode, we talk about her work with Kanye West on his 808s and Heartbreak album, the making of her classic debut Breath From Another, and how she decided to only release a trailer of her new music on streaming services rather than put the whole thing online – a seriously revolutionary move that definitely caught the media’s attention in 2019. Songs discussed in this episode:
"Streetlights" (Kanye West, '808s and Heartbreak', 2008)
"Amber and Tiger's Eye" ('We R in Need of a Musical Revolution!', 2004)
"Breath From Another" ('Breath From Another,' 1998)
"Gimme Some Time" (2019)
