From her early beats tapped out on the family piano at age five to the commanding allure of her latest single, Nyree musical odyssey is a symphony of raw emotion and relentless passion. Join me, Stacey, as I unravel the threads of her journey on this episode of "Spit to the Beat." We'll venture through the cozy corners of Nyree's memory where melodies lingered in the air like a cherished scent, and discuss how icons like Michael Jackson and modern maestros such as Chris Brown have infused her work with a rhythm that's uniquely her own. Nyree isn't just settling into Virginia's music scene; she's redefining it with her electrifying performances and her heartfelt ambition to resurrect the profound connection people once felt with music.

Witness the transformation of a freestyling sailor into a seasoned songwriter as Nyree recounts her lyrical awakening amidst the disciplined life of the Navy. The beats don't just accompany her lyrics; they guide them, sparking a spectrum of emotions from love to mischief in her compendium of songs. In a stirring appreciation, Nyree casts a spotlight on her supportive fans and the backstage mavens – Joe, Lou, and the indomitable Miriam in PR – who harmonize the behind-the-scenes melody. Nyree's gratitude is more than just a thank you; it's a tribute to the collective crescendo that pervades the music industry. Tune in for an episode that's not just an interview, but a testament to the collaborative symphony that is Nyree burgeoning career.

Speaker 4:

so, um, I remember when I was a little girl, my mom used to put a mic in my hand. It didn't matter if we were at a birthday party, if we were just hanging out in the house. She would just go and say go ahead, sing, baby. I remember being in elementary school and my teachers would catch me singing around the classroom. They'd be like well, go ahead. I would do like Mary j Blige, I'm going down Anytime. My mom told me to sing hands down. It was, um, oh gosh, I'm drawing a blank, what was it? I was like, but she would always have me singing, like all those songs we grew up from in the 90s. Yesterday, shinies wilson, that's the song.

Speaker 1:

Okay, okay, great, great, great, yeah. And uh, another song Mary j Blige.

Speaker 4:

Oh yeah, I'm going down.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's awesome. Look, let's talk. Okay, you raised up in the streets of san yago, california, man, where did you make the transition? Uh, okay, let's talk about your music. That's going up and stuff like that. How did what brought about your passion for the music?

Speaker 4:

It was a pretty big passion that you got in the whole world. Completely honest. My mommy. My mommy would take me with her to the studio If you know, it was a sunday morning catching her singing, whether we're in church or she's cleaning the house. My mom was saying when she was mad Just having the opportunity to kind of be Around the music, whether it was her singing or playing those songs. There was never a moment in my house where it was quiet.

Speaker 1:

Oh wow, yeah, cool, cool, cool, yeah. Now you were birthed with singing in your blood absolutely. Awesome. Let's talk about the creativity. As far as you know, you're starting to write now more Of your music and of your songs and stuff like that. So what brought about that passion and what are you trying or your generation to Get the message out through your songs?

Speaker 4:

If I'm being completely honest, I want to bring back the love. Okay, when people used to listen to music, it was. It was either a very heartbreaking song that you felt or you be in love and you don't even have nobody to be in love with. Something that makes you feel and you know Stuff that makes you want to dance, things that feel good.

Speaker 1:

That's great, that's great. So that's the aim, that's the goal of all your music.

Speaker 4:

There are some that is like, listen, you broke my heart and you're gonna feel that, but for the most part, I want to bring back the love, whether it be, you know, relationships, friendships, just in general. Life goes one way and I forward, so we might as well.

Speaker 1:

I'm sorry, I'm speaking from experience. Okay, okay, that's a job with your love Influence.

Speaker 4:

Oh, wow, that list goes on and on, but hands down, michael Jackson is number one. Okay, I like that. They're all team prints. You know, if I have to play nice, ask, not just kidding. They're both incredible, but a little bit more modern. I love you know. Chris Brown, keanu Lee, the Coco Jones, t'nashi yeah, I could go on and on.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, awesome, awesome. So now that you love age, you've been singing. Have you did some gigs around the city or what?

Speaker 4:

I Actually not yet. I am new to the state of Virginia. We're over in, as the locals say, norfolk. Okay yeah, but I'm in Norfolk, virginia and I do have some performances coming up soon. I ain't gonna say too much angle, say everything I.

Speaker 1:

Also okay, great, look, let's talk about all your creativity as far as writing and don't be talking about the song part. Now let's get into the writing part. What is your process? What's, what's what you do to go about getting that song out of you?

Speaker 4:

So it actually was a rocky road to begin with In the studio, with the guys who used to record my mother's music once I got a little bit older and and really I owe it to them because I had the idea it just didn't translate. But now, in order to get a song out of me, really you just have to play a beat, and I like to sit there and just freestyle with it until Something comes to mind, or if I don't already have a beat, it usually starts off as a poem or kind of just an idea, and then next comes the melody. Most of the time the chorus comes first.

Speaker 1:

Sometimes it is the case. I mean, sometimes you have writers block. You need some form of inspiration where it comes from out of nowhere. You know, sometimes outside, just being outside, or around other people in their sparks, that creativity said, okay, now got it.

Speaker 4:

Girl can only take so many heartbreaks. I let the world be my muse. I be like girl how's your life going? You tell me what's going on in your life.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 4:

Fantastic. How are you?

Speaker 1:

Welcome back. We're talking about your new single that you just dropped. Let's get into the hot. I do have a musician, so we're gonna play it in a minute. Let's get into the process of it. Let's talk about how do you come about.

Speaker 4:

So one of my siblings actually showed me this artist named Devontaro and he had this song. He was like girl who made ya just wanna say thank ya. And when I tell you, I became like obsessed with his music. I went and I was like, okay, well, obviously he's lyrically inclined, but these beats you know. So I'm listening and I'm digging and I'm realizing a lot of his beats were produced by the same person. I'm the beat maker and I'm in my bathroom getting ready for work. I was in the Navy at the time and I was freestyling to this beat for like two hours. Finally, there was something that stuck and I just played with it a little bit and that's how the song came to be.

Speaker 1:

Awesome, let's go into this.

Speaker 3:

Antar Molly, I'm gonna take a seat and make sure you listen. I'm kind of nervous. Don't know if I can do this.

Speaker 2:

Gonna take a seat and make sure you listen. Already said that all of my thoughts are slipping. I need a minute. What I'm trying to say is Well, I like the way we fight, boy, I like the way we fight. I wonder if you like well. I wonder if you like well, I wanna touch you. I'm not doing too much. Okay, wait a minute. I wanna on. I got a crush on you. No, I wanna love you.

Speaker 3:

Okay, I like you, I want you, I want to say that I need you, but I want to be with you. Take a minute, are you ready? And I don't care what they gonna say, cause what they think don't matter anyway. I'm just trying to be a lady. Okay, I often wonder what it's like to hold you close and nighting to kiss you After a long ass day of missing you, and when you're stressing, say you've had all my chest in. Let me reward you for all the lessons by showing you that you're a blessing, cause I, I, I wanna on, I wanna touch you. I'm not doing too much. Okay, wait a minute. I.

Speaker 1:

I, I wanna on, I, I, I got a crush on you. I, I, I wanna love you. Yeah, okay, I like you. Now you haven't seen this in your 50th podcast, singer songwriter. And I read With the new hit Singer Out Wanna uh, what's the title?

Speaker 4:

I get. I get so many questions on it Like what does it mean?

Speaker 1:

I gotta gotta concept of what it means. It's just what trigger it is.

Speaker 4:

So my original title in my brain was oh, I'm gonna call it stuttering, because that's what it's supposed to be like. It's like ah, I got a crush you know what they call it when you spin the block. I gotta go back and tell them how I feel, and it's like I can't even get the words out, like ah, I wanna do all these things, I wanna um.

Speaker 1:

Hey, the beat, the sound, the flow, everything is wonderful. It's so great, it's real life, it's a cool vibe, as you, I can see if you was back in San Diego Right with the drop top down, yes, yes, and just rolling. Yeah, we think bumping That'd be tight.

Speaker 4:

Absolutely.

Speaker 1:

Cool, cool, cool. So writing that how was that the process in writing that? Was it difficult to come up with that Whole concept with the beat?

Speaker 4:

Honestly. No, it sounds a little bit unhinged, but usually if I hear a beat, the beat tells me what to write.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 4:

So I don't really have to think to it. The second I hear it I know it's either a love song, or you done made somebody mad, or oh, you in trouble.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I was thinking about that when I was listening to it. I hear now the maturity of you in the song, but it sounds like it's reaching that generation that's behind you, like you know. Give them that vibe and I think you hit the nail on him, him on the nail, with that.

Speaker 4:

Thank you. It's funny you say that, because I'm a lot more mature now than I was when I wrote it.

Speaker 1:

Okay, okay.

Speaker 4:

I actually wrote that song maybe four years ago.

Speaker 1:

Wow, I was active duty in the Navy.

Speaker 4:

Oh, I'm gonna lose it. Well, I was active duty in the Navy and something told me I was like listen this song, I love it, like it's really good. It means something to me.

Speaker 4:

I want to put it out at a time where I'm able to engage with people, just in case the rest of the world likes it, and I knew that you know, being active duty I was going to be deploying. I didn't know when I was coming back, so I was like, let me just hold it, I'm just keeping real close. Speaking of active duty.

Speaker 1:

Did you work on your music during that time or did you just kind of took a setback like the college sabbatical and just wait till you got out of service, or what?

Speaker 4:

So it was actually in the Navy where I discovered that I had not just a passion but a gift for writing. So that's when a lot of my I would say my formulating came to. They weren't necessarily the worst, but they weren't the best. And that was when I really took the time to kind of hone in on my craft and realize, you know, what I was actually capable of. Oh okay, but the second I got out, I was like wow, I'm running, whoo.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I had to get that in here to get it out. Oh yeah, that's a wow, okay, good Look, we're gonna come back one more time and take another quick break, but I want to come back and see if there's an album in the future or in 2024.
