Following on from the release of her new single, ‘Step Up‘, Ozzie D. recently spoke to Essentially Pop.
What was the idea behind the ‘Step Up’ lyric video?
Experiencing a turbulent relationship
What was it like working with HIP Video Productions?
They are a fantastic team of professionals, but it is more than working together, they have made me their family, and that means the world to me!
Did you want people to see themselves in the video?
Yes, to give them hope, that your heart may get broken, you may go through some sadness, but there are always two sides to the coin, so flip it, and make the best of what you have.
The song is about self-worth; how do you show that visually?
By being a positive example in life, and when asked by giving folks the best advice my life experiences have taught me.
What does “stepping up” mean to you now?
Continually elevating one’s self.
How do you hope the song helps people going through something similar?
Possibly give them hope, and ease the pain of what they are going through, knowing they are not alone.
Kindness is a big theme in your work. How does that show up here?
Being kind to oneself, by not settling for less.
Has sharing this changed your connection with fans?
I think it is too new to elaborate on at this time.
What do you hope people feel from the song and video, and anything else you’d like to share before we wrap up?
As I stated before, giving hope and letting them know they are not alone.
