Lykke Li

I was amazed when reading the article about Lykke Li in the magazine “Under the Radar.” This article described how amazingly hard it was for people (men and women) to become more than just an average citizen and branch out into the music business. We all know people who are incredibly talented and if you think about it, probably none of them will become famous. By saying this I am not trying to be rude or say that my friends will not succeed, but it feels like in order to get anywhere in the world of Hollywood, people must know people who are famous or come from famous parents. She even admitted to how hard it was to become famous even having connections from her photographer mom and singer dad. Her lyrics are also are what they are because of where she grew up and having to be sort of in locked up. Because of her struggles in the music business and wanting to be somewhere she wasn’t, her story is incredibly relatable and helped me to realize how hard it really is for shining stars these days.
