In this exclusive interview with Music Times UK, Tony DeYoung opens up about his creative process, his views on the music industry, and his plans for the future.
_Music Times UK: Tony, thanks for joining us today. Can you tell us about your creative process and how you approach songwriting?_
Tony DeYoung: For me, songwriting is a deeply personal and introspective process. I draw inspiration from my own experiences, emotions, and observations. I’m always looking for new ways to express myself and connect with my audience. I take things that are wrong with the world & play with it a little bit, jab at it.
_Music Times UK: You’ve been vocal about your views on the music industry and the importance of authenticity. Can you tell us more about your perspective on this?_
Tony DeYoung: I believe that the music industry has become overly commercialized and focused on profit over artistry. As a result, many artists feel pressured to compromise their values and creativity in order to fit into a predetermined mold. I’m committed to staying true to myself and my art, even if it means going against the grain. I feel like I shouldn’t have to compromise my style for anybody.
_Music Times UK: You’ve had the opportunity to work with a variety of artists and producers. Can you tell us about some of your most memorable collaborations and what made them stand out?_
Tony DeYoung: I’ve been fortunate to work with some incredibly talented artists and producers over the years. One of my most memorable collaborations was with [DJ Silk], which resulted in [Dr. Phil & Oprah Winfrey Network]. What made this collaboration stand out was the way we were able to push each other creatively and bring out the best in each other.
_Music Times UK: What’s next for Tony DeYoung Entertainment? Can you tell us about any upcoming projects or collaborations?_
Tony DeYoung: I’ve got a lot of exciting projects in the works. I’m always looking for new talent to work with and help achieve their goals. I’m also working on some new music of my own, which I’m really excited about. Stay tuned for more updates on my social media channels!
_Music Times UK: Finally, what message do you hope your music conveys to your fans and listeners?_
Tony DeYoung: I hope my music inspires people to be their authentic selves and to never compromise their values and creativity for anyone. I also hope that my music provides a platform for people to express themselves and connect with others on a deeper level.
