Ryan beatty what makes you beautiful

By , he was feeling less like a kid and more like a product—and increasingly uncomfortable in the roles laid out for him to play. So Beatty bailed before child stardom could do any serious damage, and retreated from music altogether. He came out as gay to his fans on Instagram in and began crafting his debut album, Boy In Jeans. For a while though, that was the last we heard of Ryan Beatty. There was no big tour accompanying Boy in Jeans —he was already in the midst of recording a followup, Dreaming of David.

He retreated into himself, nurturing an inner life. When I finally follow Merley to find Beatty at the Chateau, my host does seem relaxed—blissful, even. Kevin and Q3 are setting up in the living room, with phone conversations and birdsongs filtering in from the balcony. He ends up asking the other room for quiet. How do you cope with your scatterbrain on a daily basis? My scatterbrain is what makes me constantly create, because my brain is just craving to see something new all the time.

So I guess if I were to do something to change that I would be afraid. You know how it is when you really focus on something, especially when you care about it?

My brain just attacks it. Were you always singing as a kid? Singing is something that I've just naturally always been good at. So from a young age, it's something I always did. It was instinct, like it was very primal to me. When I was a teenager, I saw people my age getting popular from YouTube, but I never saw that for myself. My sister actually had a channel and I would just post stuff on there. I got abuse from there, so then I was like, "Oh, I'll just make my own channel.

It was the consistency that got people to keep coming back. We're talking , so it feels so far away yet straight up like yesterday, in the blink of an eye. How many siblings do you have? I have four older sisters and a younger brother. I have a huge family and awesome nephews and nieces. They all protect me. I want to go back to that performance on Jimmy Fallon with Brockhampton.

It was an incredible reveal, because you had been out of the public eye for so long. Not many people knew where you stood on music or if you still even wanted to be an artist. Was that ever the case? I feel like I give my entire life to this. It's all I do, every single day. It's all I think about. My artistry completely blends in with my real life, there's no separation for me. I don't think that's a great thing, but I always say it's amazing that I do something that affects me as much as this does.

I lay awake at night thinking about the music. I can't sleep sometimes because I'm thinking about it. The more you learn, the more you realize how much there is left to learn.

For sure. I love everything I've learned. I'm always just trying to listen and take things in. And I'm nowhere near the best I could possibly be. But that's also what excites me, because I feel like I'm continually getting better in my own way.

When did you know you were going to make a lot of the album with them? I really liked Austin as a person. We share a lot of similarities in the way that we hear music and how we take it in and enjoy it. But he also knows a lot more of another side of music than I do. He has his own influences and his own point of views in a very strong way.

He really is opinionated in his ideas, and I liked that. I liked seeing that confidence and I wanted to really work with someone that was pushing me. Instead of just saying yes to everything. I realized I needed to work with someone that challenged me, but I also already had a friendship with Austin.

Ryan Beatty - lyrics C Cimorelli Covers. Playlist Karaoke Share. I wouldn't wanna be anybody else. You made me insecure Told me I wasn't good enough But who are you to judge When you're a diamond in the rough I'm sure you got some things You'd like to change about yourselft But when it comes to me I wouldn't want to be anybody else.

Who says Who says you're not perfect Who says you're not worth it Who says you're the only one that's hurting Trust me That's the price of beauty Who says you're not pretty Who says you're not beautiful Who says.

It's such a funny thing How nothing's funny when it's you You tell 'em what you mean But they keep whiting out the truth It's like a work of art That never gets to see the light Keep you beneath the stars Won't let you touch the sky.

In , he further burst the teen heartthrob bubble by coming out as gay — three weeks after the shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

It was a life-changing moment, especially for a pop star from a religious background. On a creative roll, he wasted no time on its follow-up, the heady swirl of the multi-layered Dreaming Of David , released in January Dismissive of genre boundaries and searingly honest, it's no surprise Beatty caught the ear of some of music's current iconoclasts, from rap collective Brockhampton to professional shape-shifter Tyler, The Creator, who used Beatty's delicate vocals on 's Grammy-winning Igor.

He tried to quit music — he really did — but even in the darkest times, it kept dragging him back. How was the process of making the new album different to your debut? I didn't take myself too seriously, but I felt a bit more serious when I was writing it.

I was diving deeper into the creative part of myself that really believes in what I write. Obviously I'm not the biggest artist in the world, but I'm still going to fight for what I want to make.
