Champagniaa: My journey as an upcoming artist wasn’t easy. I had faced a lot of obstacles along the way such as constructive criticism which I have embraced and took into consideration to perfect my craft and I have been putting in the work I put my blood sweat and tears into this. I have also faced a lot of jealous people weather it was males and females they have attempted to bring me down because they didn’t wanna see me win and they didn’t want to see me do better than them and outshine them, they had attempted to dim my light but I never allowed it, I’m a Leo I am a go getter and I am very ambitious. Music is my therapy I had a rough and traumatic past which has only made me stronger these haters are bitter because they can never stop me from elevating and ima keep elevating ima keep leveling up I won’t stop. My trauma and the pain that people put me through only motivated me even more.
V-Henny: Can you tell us about your new song? What inspired you to create it?
Champagniaa: My new follow up single “Bad Gyal” is a rap/reggae song it is out now on all streaming platforms. it gives Dancehall vibes. What had inspired me to create this song was from Rihanna’s song with Drake “Work”, Nicki’s song with Drake “Needle” Vybez Kartel song “Fever” , Dsmallz song “WAP” and of course my brothers Xavrosa and Certified Gage’s hit song “Wicked Moves” and I also wanted to try out something new and show the world how diverse and versatile I am just like Nicki Minaj & Rihanna
V-henny: Can you share any behind-the-scenes anecdotes or interesting moments that occurred while working on this song?
Champagniaa: I really took my time with this song. I also took great advice into consideration from great people like Rok DaHustla, Mayborn, Queen Julz, Seec, Waydah Blacc, Row Stacks, Jodie Mak, Reggie Lane, Blu Diaz and Spotlight Breeze thanks to them Bad Gyal is a hit record that everyone is vibing too and I’m very proud of myself of how far I have come during my musical journey.
V-Henny: After the release of this new song, do you have any plans for a follow-up song? Champagniaa: Can you give us a hint about what fans can expect next? All I am going to say is I will be talking my shit and everyone that I am a real boss chick periodttt it’s called “Savage”
V-Henny: How do you approach creating a follow-up song to ensure it maintains the momentum and interest generated by the previous release?
Champagniaa: I like to make hit records, I like making songs for the clubs and radio. I listen to a beat if I like it I just take it from there and go with the flow.
V-Henny: Are there any specific goals or aspirations you have for this new song and the follow-up song? How do you see them fitting into your overall musical journey?
Champagniaa: My goal for “Bad Gyal” I hope one day DJ Drewski plays it on radio rotation on Hot97 and I have been working on a music video for my hit song “Seduction” which will be directed by Cokeboy Teck and it will definitely for sure release this summer 2024
V-Henny: How would you describe your new brand or image? What aspects of your personality or artistic vision does it represent?
Champagniaa: I will be honest Official Champagniaa is the Rihanna of rap. Like I have said before I am very versatile when it comes to my music Seduction it gives you that pop rap on a trap beat and Bad Gyal is dancehall rap/reggae vibes. I also have a couple of collaborations coming out soon including drill music. My brand I stand for Women Empowerment I am a girls girl. I like to uplift other women and their brands & businesses because we are stronger united than we are divided. I never understood the whole hating on another woman thing it’s not my cup of tea. My personality I am very ambitious, very bubbly, and I also like to have fun to have a good time everywhere I go. Every room I walk into I make my presence be known. I consider myself a very strong and powerful woman I can see myself in the next 5-6 years to be a powerful music mogul. I am also into makeup and fashion I like being feminine, like to look good and smell good. I like making good music. I am also the realist and illest chick with a dope personality that everyone falls in love with and that’s why certain haters can’t stand me.
V-Henny: What steps did you take to rebrand yourself? Did you work with a team of professionals or rely on your own creativity? Can you elaborate on the process?
Champagniaa: I ain’t gonna lie.. I don’t have a team I’m not under any management as of right now but I am down with the movement “Baddies with Motion” and I enjoy working with Comatose Rose and Molly they have taught me so much about the entertainment industry and they have taught me so much about how important it is to have top tier content on my social medias and how important it is to vibe and network. To be quite honest I would love for Comatose Rose & Rok Dahustla to become my managers one day if it’s possible. I have also took great advice from the CEO of love x Lust store’s very own Queen “Jennifer” she had taught me to rebuild my confidence she is somebody I look up to and I hold her in high regards, she has always taught me to never give up on myself , show everyone I’m that boss bitch and apply pressure that’s what I have been doing since than.
V-Henny: Have you faced any challenges or resistance from your fans or the industry during the rebranding process? How did you handle those situations?
Champagniaa: The only thing that I had to do was change my artist name from Champagne into Official Champagniaa because too many artists have the name Champagne in their artist names and I want to stand out and be original so with the help of many people who have suggested me to rebrand and change my stage name into Official Champagniaa and it’s actually going pretty well for me. I’m still in the rebranding process but it’s going very smoothly and I am very proud of myself for this accomplishment.
V-Henny: Looking ahead, what are your goals and aspirations as an artist with your new brand? How do you envision your career progressing in the future?
Champagniaa: My goals and aspirations an artist with my new brand is for me to reach mainstream level and reach for the stars and become the next superstar. Anything can happen lol
V-Henny: WHAT’S NEXT?
Champagniaa: I got New music is coming out, my music video for Seduction is finally dropping in the summertime, I got shows and events coming up. I host for Evo lounge now every Wednesdays for BBW Wednesdays music & sounds by DJ Blacqout so make sure y’all pull up and check it out come vibe with me cause everywhere I be it’s a lituation.
V-Henny: What is one message you would give to your fans?
Champagniaa: Never give up on your dreams in order to obtain what you desire make sure you work hard for it no matter how hard it gets never give up. You will have haters and naysayers just make sure you block them out and keep going until you get what you desire. Never allow nobody to bully you into silence stand up for yourself. Always love yourself first before you can ever love others. Self love is what’s more important. Put yourself first make yourself a priority before you attend to the need of others.
