Award-winning singer and songwriter, Waje graces the cover of the second quarter edition of Glazia Magazine.
In the special feature, Waje opens up to discuss life, body positivity, finding love, new music, and new direction.
Waje’s magazine cover comes a few days after the release of her free democracy day single titled “Need Each Other”.
Below are selected excerpts from the interview.
Omawumi O: This edition of the magazine is inspired by Mother Nature, what does nature mean to you as a person?
Waje: Nature to me is life because the creation can’t even be described without nature… The Garden of Eden…you know what I mean? There is so much that the greenery and plants give to us that keep our survival and there are so many things that keep us going and inspire who we are just by being surrounded by nature. Nature is literarily our existence. Nature is our existence that’s how I will put it.
Omawumi O: I like that nature is our existence that’s a nice quotable quote. Does nature inspire you in your music?
Waje: You know there was a time in my life where I sort of got a writer’s block. I couldn’t really do much and a friend of mine told me to try writing when I have long trips on the plane and strangely enough, it was great. It was a daytime flight, I was looking outside, the light was coming in through my windows, and I was seeing the clouds and their different shapes. You know when you look at the clouds, you suddenly start forming images and it’s so funny, there was one that looked like three people. There, I got the song I wanted to write which is in my up and coming EP. So yeah, it does inspire me.
The Magazine will be available from Monday, June 4th, 2018 at https://glaziang.com/store/
