ʻO Andra Day he mele ʻAmelika a he mea hana keaka. Hana ʻo ia i nā ʻano mele o ka pop, rhythm and blues and soul. Ua koho pinepine ʻia ʻo ia no nā makana hanohano. I ka makahiki 2021, loaʻa iā ia ke kuleana ma ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻo United States vs. Billie Holiday. Ke komo ʻana i ka paʻi kiʻiʻoniʻoni - hoʻonui i ka helu o ka mea pena.
ʻO ka wā kamaliʻi a me ka ʻōpio
Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Cassandra Monique Bathy (inoa maoli o ka mea mele) i ka makahiki 1984, ma ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Spokane (Washington). Laki ʻo ia i kona ulu ʻana i loko o kahi ʻohana waiwai.
I ka makahiki ʻekolu, ua neʻe ʻo Cassandra me kona ʻohana i Kaleponi Hema. Loaʻa i ka hōkū nā hoʻomanaʻo pumehana o kona wā kamaliʻi.
Ua ulu ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he keiki maikaʻi loa. Ua loaʻa i nā mākua o kahi kaikamahine akamai i kahi hoʻohana no kāna talena - ua hoʻouna lākou iā Cassandra i ka hui mele o ka halepule Chula Vista. Ua ukali ʻia e nā papa hou aʻe ma ke kula choreographic. Ua hoʻolaʻa ʻo ia ma mua o 10 mau makahiki i ka hula, ua hoʻomohala i kahi manaʻo maikaʻi loa o ka mele a me ka plasticity.
He haumana ikaika ʻo Cassandra. Ua hele ʻo ia i ke kula ʻo Valencia Park. Ua hoʻokipa ke kula hoʻonaʻauao i ke kālena no ka hana hana. Ua komo ʻo Cassandra i nā hanana mele kula me ka hauʻoli. I kona wā kamaliʻi, ua kamaʻāina ʻo ia i ka hana a nā mea hoʻokani jazz. Ma hope o kona puka 'ana mai Valencia Park, ua komo ke kaikamahine i ke kula o Creative and Performing Arts.
He mea paʻakikī ke manaʻoʻiʻo, akā ua mākaukau ʻo ia ma mua o ʻelua mau ʻoihana. Aneane ma hope koke iho o kona puka 'ana mai ke kula o Creative and Performing Arts, ua loa'a ke kaikamahine i ka hana ma ke 'ano he animator. ʻO ia ka manawa i hoʻoholo ʻia ai kona hopena e hiki mai ana.
I ka makahiki 2010, ua ʻike ʻo Kai Millard Morris i ka hana a ka mea pena ʻōpio. Ua hauʻoli loa ʻo ia i ka hana a Cassandra ma ke kahua kūʻai kūʻai aku a ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e hoʻolohe i ka hoaaloha o ka mea hana kaulana ʻo Adrian Hurwitz.
ʻO ke ala hana o Andra Day
Ua hoʻomaka ka mea mele i kāna ʻoihana noʻonoʻo ma o ka hoʻokani ʻana i nā uhi o nā hana mele a nā mea mele kaulana ʻAmelika. Eia kekahi, ma lalo o kona inoa, ua paʻi ʻia nā mashup ma muli o nā hana helu. Ua aloha ʻo ia i nā mele o Amy Winehouse, Lauryn Hill a me Marvin Gaye.
Nānā: ʻO ka mashup kahi mele mele kumu ʻole, ʻo ia hoʻi, ma ke ʻano he kānāwai, ʻelua mau mele kumu. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā Mashups i nā kūlana studio ma o ka uhi ʻana i kekahi ʻāpana o kahi hana kumu ma kahi ʻāpana like o kekahi.
Eia kekahi, ua hana ikaika ʻo Andra i nā mea kumu mua, i hoʻomaka ʻia ma ka 2014 Sundance Film Festival. Laki ka manaʻo kiʻi. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ua hoʻolauna ʻia ʻo Andra iā Spike Lee iā ia iho. Ma hope iki, e pana ʻo ia i wikiō no ke mele o ka mea mele Forever Mine. Ua hoʻonohonoho pū ʻo ia iā André e komo i kekahi mau hanana honua. No laila, kono ʻia ka mea mele iā Essence a me ka hōʻike TV Good Morning America!
Hōʻike i ka LP mua
I ka makahiki 2015, ua hoʻopiha hou ʻia ka discography o ka mea mele ʻAmelika me kāna LP mua. Ua kapa ʻia ka moʻolelo Cheers to the Fall. ʻO ke mele Rise Up, i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka album, ua koho ʻia no ka makana Grammy hanohano.
Ua hui pū ʻia ka album ma Warner Bros. Records. I ke kākoʻo ʻana i ka LP hoʻomaka, ua hoʻonohonoho nā luna o ka mea pena i kahi huakaʻi holoʻokoʻa.
I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope mai, ua komo ʻo ia i kahi hanana i hoʻonohonoho pono ʻia e hoʻolauleʻa i ka wehe ʻana o ka Democratic National Convention. ʻO nā hana mele, i hana maʻalahi ʻia e Andra, ua hoʻopio i nā lālā o ka hui o nā makuahine ʻeleʻele, i hakakā ikaika i ka arbitrariness o nā mākaʻi kūloko.
Ma hope o kekahi manawa, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i ka hoʻokani pila i ka lipine "Marshall". Ua koho ʻia ʻo Stand Up for Something no Oscar. Ua ʻike ʻia ke kālena a Andra ma ka pae kiʻekiʻe.
Ua hoʻomau ʻo ia i ka hoʻokani ʻana ma nā pāʻina kumuhana a me nā ʻahaʻaina. Ma 2018, ua hōʻike ʻia ka Rise Up hoʻokahi ma ka Daytime Emmy Awards.
Nā kikoʻī o ke ola pilikino o ka mea pena
ʻAʻole wikiwiki ʻo Andra e kaʻana like i nā kikoʻī o kona ola pilikino me nā mea pā o kāna hana. ʻO kēia kekahi o nā mea kaulana loa o ʻAmelika. ʻO nā pūnaewele kaiapili he "hamaʻole", no laila hikiʻole ke'ōlelo maopopo inā ua maleʻo ia aʻaʻole paha.
Andra Day i kēia manawa
I ka makahiki 2020, ua loaʻa iā ia kahi hāʻawi mai Lee Daniels e hōkū ma ka biopic United States vs. Billie Holiday. Ua haʻi ʻia ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni e pili ana i ka biography paʻakikī o kahi mea hoʻokani jazz i kaulana loa i ke kenekulia i hala - ʻo Billie Holiday. I ka makahiki 2021, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka lipine ma ka pale.
ʻAʻole pāʻani wale ʻo Andra Day i ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni, akā hīmeni pū kekahi. Ua hōʻike maikaʻi ka mea hana keaka i ke ʻano magnetic, kālena nui a me ka hopena pōʻino o ka mea mele nui.
