insight with Priscilla Bailey: The UK's Neo-Soul Queen on "Greater Love" & Defying the Industry

In this episode of the "Insight" podcast, host Roger Moore sits down with award-winning Birmingham-born R&B/soul artist Priscilla Bailey. Priscilla shares the inspiration and creative process behind her critically acclaimed album, "Greater Love."

Priscilla discusses her musical journey, starting with singing in church worship teams and an outreach group in the early 2000s. She reveals how her sound, a fusion of neo-soul, jazz, R&B, and hip-hop, was influenced by artists she grew up listening to, like Mary J. Blige, Janet Jackson, and even jazz legends like Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. She also shares the surprising reggae influence behind her unique vocal scatting.

As the album's executive producer, Priscilla details the meticulous process of creating and compiling the project, from writing melodies and lyrics to arranging harmonies and selecting the album's flow. She candidly speaks about the challenges of being an independent artist in the UK, including dealing with industry politics and the discouragement of doors being closed. Priscilla recounts the pivotal moment when winning an award validated her efforts and gave her the confidence to release "Greater Love".

With tracks like "Presence," "Mango Praise," and "Nothing Can Separate Us," the album is a testament to her faith and a message of hope and love. This is a must-watch for anyone who wants to hear a story of perseverance, artistic integrity, and the power of God's calling.
