How do you thrive in a music career where you are demographically in the minority? #Spring25

I love creating music, and my passion is to become a music composer for movies and films. My confidence is strained, however, because I am deeply in the minority (demographically). How can I be confident and successful in the midst of my journey?

Hi Analisa!

Focus on your passion for composing music for films and whatever other musical direction you may feel inspired by or drawn to. What you create will speak for itself. No one can take that away from you! Keep following your heart and keep composing the music that is in there. It may sound like it's easier said than done. In a way, I guess it is! However, don't let what others may or may not think deter you. Again, just focus on your passion for the music you have inside of you. Trust the journey. God bless!

If You are Serious for your passion then being Minority is just an obstacle for you. Be the voice of people like you but don't oppose Majority, praise them in your song and Let everyone knows your feelings and let your dreams come true.

Cliff’s Answer

Being in the minority can feel isolating, but it’s also your superpower. Your unique voice and perspective are exactly what the industry needs. Stay focused, keep learning, create relentlessly, and build a community that supports you. Confidence comes from doing the work and owning your story. Once I was mentoring a girl who is asian who is dyslexic and I encouraged her instead of seeing it as a “mess” to see it as a “message” and use it as a gift in her songwriting to show people it can be normalized and also that we all flip words around and think backwards at time. Believe in yourself and it’s only about what you think and say not anyone else.
