Fall In Love with Frankie Maston

Does sexuality matter in music?

• 

• 

I really really don’t think it does. I do not think it does because music is this free form of expression & in my case representation just as it is with many other and all kinds of art. So I don’t think it really sexuality does matter, it can be a topic, it can be a theme in a body of work but everyone, music is just music and again, art can be interpreted differently with different people & that makes it even more beautiful, so sexuality, race, language sometimes they don’t really matter cause you just consume art in its free form & if you get it, you get it, if you don’t, you don’t.

What are the challenges you seek to resolve as a queer person in the East African Music Industry?

Acceptance and access to opportunity if you ask me, because those would probably be the biggest challenges I have faced in my career. And so yah, most importantly again I would say, there is this phrase “Live & let live”, so I really wish that this phrase takes control & just sit in it’s place because it will be a much easier world to live in for people in the queer community.

Do you believe in spirituality or religion?

Well I believe in spirituality, I mean I go to church every once in a while but I mostly prefer to be alone, in my spiritual place by myself or maybe every once in a while with a person that I really trust but that barely really happens. I like to be on my own really cause I feel like it’s really, really special place & moment to be in. So yah I believe in spirituality & also there is this thing in me that I really do believe everybody has, I feel like everyone has certain super powers within all of us, I don’t think we are just basic people there walking, everyone out there is really very special & for me it’s something spiritual.

What is your star sign, do you behave like your sign?

I’m a Virgo and every thing Virgo brings to the table, I even read at some point that there are some people that are double Virgos, I am really not about the tracing of the signs but I just know I am everything a Virgo is & I am very proud of it. I am really so happy because I am in the same star sign with so many people that I really, really love, adore & look up to…., mama b, should I say that again, so yah I am a Virgo & I love it.

If not music?

Definitely fashion and a whole lot of fun. I started doing fashion before music so I am a whole fashion designer/ stylist on some other day; yah that would basically be it.

Fun Fact about yourself;

So I have this thing I consider a whole talent and I will try monetize it some day…..! I can move one eye with one eye still…..

The mantra you live by ……….

It’s very simple, I choose to live!
