‘Body 2 Body’ is so upbeat and fun, I cannot stop listening! What was the songwriting process like for this song?
Stella: Thank you first and foremost! The songwriting process was quite interesting for this one. Dante and I initially started with the chorus. We eventually found ourselves scratching the verses multiple times until we came up with the one it is now.
What was it like to work with Dante Juhkel?
Stella: It’s been such a challenging, fun and rewarding time. Challenging because he taught me to be more vulnerable with myself. Fun because he’s just a genuine soul to be around. Rewarding because he’s helped me shape up into the artist I deserve to be and has taught me so many new tips and tricks.
Out of the tracks you have released so far, which one would you say is your favorite? You can only pick one!
Stella: My favorite track is “Player”. It’s not only catchy but portrays a more edgy and confident side. Fun fact: This song was about to be a “throw away” but it turned out to be one of the most favored by others.
What inspires you to continue writing music?
Stella: The people around me inspire me to keep going essentially. I don’t rely on them as a person but their support and encouragement towards me. My life experiences also build a foundation for songwriting.
What do you like to do when you aren’t creating music?
Stella: When I’m not creating music, I enjoy working on nail art, makeup looks, taking care of my four pets (dog, cat, two snakes) and vlogging.
Could you share some of the best advice you have received?
Stella: Recently, I watched “Top Gun: Maverick” featuring Tom Cruise and Miles Teller. In the movie they tell each other, “Don’t think, just do.” As simple as this phrase is, it’s a huge reminder for all of us to make choices with confidence, regardless of failure.
