Tell us about yourself and why you decided to take part in The Pixel Projects 30 Artistes, 30 Songs, 30 Days project.

We decided to take part in this project because we believe that every woman, and, every person in the world deserves freedom and respect.  And through this project, we would like our followers to also receive the message and support this good cause too.

Why is ending violence against women important to you?

Everyone deserves respect, be it women or men. However, not everyone has the courage to step up for their choice and for their freedom. With this project, we know that we can help these women pick themselves up.

In your opinion how does music help in efforts to end violence against women?

Music is always a healing tool. It gives off a positive energy to our souls. We can self motivate and inspire ourselves with music. And through this channel, who knows? We can inspire the weaker to stand up and be stronger!

What actions can music artistes take to help end violence against women?

Artistes and musicians can do their part by spreading this message to their followers, and also write songs that empower this project!
