The Art Of Songwriting: Keep it real and emotional – Liam Voice

Wait 5 sec.

Singer-songwriter Liam Voice has shared valuable advice for emerging songwriters in Uganda’s creative and music industry, urging them to stay authentic and emotionally grounded in their craft.Speaking about the art of songwriting, Liam emphasized the importance of drawing from raw, genuine emotions rather than overthinking or trying too hard to impress.I advise and encourage emerging songwriters to ground their lyrics in raw emotion and use only about 20% of their creativity to shape the magic. Once you go up to 60%, you start losing the raw emotion and begin trying to prove a point. You don’t have to prove anything—just keep it real.He further encouraged writers to trust their instincts and embrace simplicity in their creative process.“Whatever comes to your mind, write it down, go to the studio, and record it. That’s all.”Liam Voice also opened up about the inspiration behind his project Sibyamanyi, describing it as a deeply personal effort to connect with his audience on an emotional level.Financially struggling Emmanuel Lwasa reveals painful rift with his childrenSibyamanyi is a project I made to emotionally connect with fans and show that even in our stardom, we’re not that different. It responds to those who think our lives are far apart, yet in truth, we share the same struggles and experiences.With his message, Liam reinforces the idea that authenticity and not perfection is the true power behind impactful music.I advise & encourage emerging songwriters to ground their lyrics in raw emotion, and use only about 20% of their talent to shape the magic. – @liamvoice_ug #UBCHorizonvibe pic.twitter.com/m318ynp39E— Magic1Tv (@MagiconeTv) March 21, 2026The post The Art Of Songwriting: Keep it real and emotional – Liam Voice appeared first on MBU.
