GIVEON Talks about Frank Sinatra and What He Learned from Him
This July, GIVĒON shines as Boardroom's Cover Star on the heels of his latest album, Beloved. The singer and songwriter joins Boardroom's Vinciane Ngomsi to discuss a variety of topics that culminated in an album that took more than 1000 days to create. GIVĒON sheds light on some of his inspirations - from Frank Ocean's storytelling to Miguel's vocal range and how Frank Sinatra inspired every bit of his stage presence. Later, he discusses the need for his peers around R&B to get back to the authenticity of the instruments and how creating art requires him to live it first. Lastly, GIVĒON discusses his tour, kicking off this fall is one he hopes to bring an intimate feeling to, despite the massive venues and hoards.
