Musiq Explains Why He Dropped The Soulchild

Rozalynn S. Frazier of Essence magazine chatted with Musiq (formerly Musiq Soulchild) on why he dropped the ‘Soulchild’ on his latest album. “I dropped it because it’s a lot to live up to right now,” he explained. “Sometimes I’m still iffy about the name because I don’t want to misrepresent it. I’m not taking it on as a title and I’m not claiming that I know all there is to know about music. Soulchild means being true to yourself and having both of those powerful words as names is a lot to live up to in the beginning stages of my career, while I’m progressing and aspiring to be more. I feel [like] I should just take one day at a time and when I am really able to live out that idea, ,or personify being what a soul child is, I’ll do that. So I am still Musiq Soulchild, but I’m just coming out as Musiq right now.”
