Prisca performing SKIN

[Music]

hey

what’s up i’m presca and i am a

performing artist recording artist and

songwriter and producer

and i am going to play a very special

song that changed the trajectory of my

career

it’s called skin and

as a songwriter i have this kind of

unspoken

promise to be authentic

and to share the things that are the

most

fearful or scary i think the artists

that

don’t do that or don’t have a chance to

it’s very hard for them to connect with

their listeners

and this song changed my life because i

wrote it

years ago when my self-confidence was

extremely low

and i just sang it to myself as a mantra

to

feel better about myself and little did

i know the song would change someone

else’s life

when when my song came out it wasn’t my

plan

because it was such a sensitive song to

me but when it did i got

i got a lot of emails back and messages

back from

people who were listening to it and this

one lady said that

she was in a help center and they

weren’t allowed to listen to music

or do anything that could be maybe

distracting to their recovery process

and she showed the nurses my song and

they said this is the one song that you

can listen to

and she ended up not taking her own life

and so i think as an artist

i want to keep writing authentically and

from the heart

and if i if my music can change people’s

lives i am so there so i feel like

as a human and as an artist i’ve done

what needs to be done and everything

else is

icing so uh i choose to continue to

write authentically

and my album is coming out next year and

this song just released on my live album

this year without any more hesitation

this is my song skin and i hope it moves

you to speak differently

about yourself in the mirror

[Music]

the subject is touching

[Music]

i wanna feel pretty

but these beauty queens in

my behind

photoshop realities

[Music]

this is not a test

straight from the muscle behind my

taste i’m in the mirror
