Vanessa Mai, the German singer-songwriter, is set to release her first autobiographical book titled “I’m doing it, Mai Wei” later this year. The 30-year-old artist, who has been making music since her early teens, has come a long way in the last few years. Mai’s latest studio album, “Metamorphosis” (Sony Music), showcases her evolution as an artist, with a sound that transcends traditional genre boundaries.
In a recent interview, Mai spoke about her approach to making music, stating that she started making music “completely carefree and without any classifications”. She describes her creative process as “free floating”, a philosophy that has led her to collaborate with artists from the rap and hip hop scene. Mai’s willingness to experiment with modern beats and styles has endeared her to a new generation of fans, while retaining the loyalty of her existing fan base.
Mai’s desire to connect with her fans has also led her to venture beyond the music industry. She hosts the SWR YouTube channel “On Mai Way”, where she interviews guests on a treadmill. Mai has also launched her own fashion collections and is currently filming a feature film.
However, it is the release of Mai’s autobiographical book that has generated the most buzz. Mai explains that writing the book was a thoughtful process, allowing her to reflect on her life and experiences. She states that she doesn’t want to “piss” on anyone with her book but feels that her fans deserve to understand her story. Mai’s book is set to be released in the fall and is eagerly anticipated by her fans.
In a music industry that is often focused on hits and chart success, Vanessa Mai has carved out her own unique path. Her willingness to experiment with her sound and to connect with her fans on a personal level has endeared her to many. With the release of her autobiographical book, Mai’s fans will have the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the person behind the music.
