Hello Alonzo! We are excited to chat with you today! Let’s
start with learning more about you – can you catch us up on all things Alonzo
2019?
Hey! So, excited to chat with you guys as well! Interviews
mean so much to me.
Wow did the year fly by. I would call 2019 my
year of Growth. I got past some fears and started several new journeys. January
– March I got back in the recording studio for the first time in years. In May,
I had the opportunity to tour as the first lead vocalist on the 4 U Prince
tour. In July, I released my Debut single charting in the Top 100 on the iTunes
Rock charts. In September, I backup sang for Christina Aguilera, In October I
went on the Free of Fear School Tour. In November, I released my 2nd single,
and here we are in December. I am sooooo full happiness even after writing this
because often in the moment if feels like life is going nowhere but this year
has truly been awesome.
You have released some amazing music this
year! Any new music panned for 2020?
YES! So much new music in 2020 & the release
of my debut EP! Can’t wait to share with everyone.
Do you listen to other artists to get
inspiration and is there a particular song that never fails to move you
emotionally?
Yes! So many artists inspire me. I’m honestly
always listening to music, watching artist documentaries, studying legends like
Whitney Houston, Tina Turner, Patti Labelle and more. I’m very emotional ahah
so it is not very difficult to move me emotionally. I have deep empathy so if
whatever is happening truly comes from the heart I can always feel it.
Describe to us your perfect day, what does
that look like to you?
A perfect day for me is me waking up in a good
mood, meditating before I touch my phone, and going to the gym. After the gym,
I eat lunch and head home to be as productive as possible within my “Power
Hours” this is usually between 12pm – 3pm. This is the part of the day where I
have the most energy. I respond to emails, rehearse songs, work on things for
my career, etc. After I’ve gotten work done for myself the evening is usually
reserved for me to work and make money. Sometimes it’s through shows, sometimes
its driving postmates but as long as I’ve been to the gym, worked for myself,
and made some money it’s a good day haha. Really hoping in 2020 I can make
singing my #1 source of income.
If you were given a one-minute ad slot during
the Super Bowl, what would you fill it with?
It would be an ad directed towards BEYONCE
asking her to sign me as her first male artist to Parkwood Entertainment
Anything else you would like to share?
Yes! My best friend Skye Isaac and I just
released a cover to “When You Believe” by Whitney Houston & Mariah Carey.
