I do want to say that, you know, don't lose sight.

(02:07):
This is the frequency of the fearless. You know, sometimes
the most beautiful voices come from the most broken places.
When the world leaves you empty, you can either fill
that space with bitterness or you can fill it with music.
For Brooke Lynn, that emptiness became art. Born in the

(02:32):
Netherlands and raised by the power of soul, she didn't
just find her sound, she found herself through it. Her
song Empty It's more than heartbreaking melody. It's a mirror
for everyone who's ever pour love into the wrong hands
and still found the strength to sing again. Her voice

(02:53):
carries truth, pain, and freedom all in one breath. I
don't know how she do it, but she does it well,
and her courage reminds us that being vulnerable isn't weakness,
it's wisdom wrapped in melody. So today we'll talk about love,
loss and the rebirth of what happens when you turn

(03:15):
your pain into purpose. You're not just here for a
talk show. And this isn't just radio. This is revival
for your mind, body, and spirit. This is Vigilantes Radio Life.

(04:51):
born and soul inspired, brook Lynn is captivating audiences worldwide
with her raw vulnerability and unmatched vocal power. Her new
single Empty isn't just music, It's medicine for the broken hearted.
From viral covers to original anthems, she's proven that authenticity

(05:13):
still reigns supreme in an age of fast love and
fleeting trends. So with that, please join me in saying
welcome friend to Rick Lynn. Hello, Hello, Hello, welcome to
the show.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Hi, thank you for having me such a beautiful introduction
as well.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Absolutely, we are so excited to have you with us
this morning. How are you?

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yeah, I'm really good. How are you?

Speaker 3 (05:45):
I'm doing good as well. It's Saturday, so no complaints.
Made it through the week. Yeah, all right, Brooke, Before
we really just dive into everything, what's been on your
art and mind lately?

Speaker 5 (06:04):
Yeah, Well, besides the newest release of course, that I'm
like super excited about, I would say probably.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Like growth has been a lot that I'm.

Speaker 5 (06:14):
Working on lately and thinking about, especially like as a singer,
because I'm like really learning about like discovering new sides
of how to use my voice and learning how to
express what I feel through it, and yeah, just basically the.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Old process of being an artist.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
And it tells me to advertise, but you go through
a lot emotionally, but I keep just reminding myself that
it's all part of a journey and every phase teaches
you something you know, and you come.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
Out better and more connected through your own music.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Absolutely, so you're learning new techniques as well.

Speaker 5 (06:52):
Yeah, definitely, it's it's been like a new uh because
I wasn't I haven't like been in music like for
like a long long time or something, so it was
really adjusting how you record in a studio and it's
such a different way of singing, and especially because English isn't.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
My first language, so you really have to.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
Like, I don't hear certain things that my producer does,
and he's American, so sometimes you just go over like
one line just for the words for the pronunciation, so
that that's sometimes a little frustrating.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
I see, I see. Yeah, I could imagine that, you know,
especially with English not being your first language and then
having to get the nuances of every word, every pronunciation
and things like that, things of that nature.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Yeah, absolutely, it's just thing, but it's coming together.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Yeah, you sing beautifully, So let's be welcome. Let's start
with the emotion behind Empty. What moment or feelings really
inspired the song?

Speaker 5 (08:07):
I think like what inspired the song is like the
things that you went through about because empty is about
like giving you all to someone and not having it returned.
And I feel like a lot of people like go
through stuff like that, and the songs.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Really tried to.

Speaker 5 (08:28):
Embrace those feelings and try to help other people understand
that it's like such a thing that's pretty common, especially.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Like now, So I think I think that. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:44):
Also, like my producers also on the other line and
says he's unmuted, but he can like also like tell
a lot of of my manager, like tell a lot of.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
Stuff about that as well.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
Okay, so you want your producer to jump in and
add some commentary as well.

Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, if that's okay with you guys.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Yeah, yeah, the more the mirror, Let's see if I
can find okay, this may be him right here. Hello, Hey,
welcome to the show. Hey, how you know? Pretty good?
All right? Okay, top of the morning, Talk of the morning. Indeed, man, indeed,

(09:26):
I have my cup of Joe here and ready to
get Saturday started. It's one day at the Halloween, Yes, sir,
all right, So we're talking about the moment and feeling
that you know, capsulate this song empty, what all went
into it. So from your point of view, what's your name,

(09:49):
by the way, my name is Rio, Rio Rio. What's
your point of view on the moment that really carried
the song?

Speaker 6 (10:02):
Well, the song was originally written by this girl named
Georgia Coop. Me and her wrote it some years back,
and we had did a writing camp for Brooklyn last
year and Instanbul.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Turkey, And.

Speaker 6 (10:27):
During that camp, she was writing her own records, and
you know, I brought her a few records that I
already had, and when I hit play on that one,
she said it spoke to her right away, so she
just wanted to go in and I guess change up
a few things on it to make it feel more
like her. But I think, uh, as far as it speaking,

(10:56):
I think the way that she vocally performed it made
it what it is today because originally it was just
a piano song and she made do into like a
big uh pop style record.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Yeah. I've always been amazed at how you know, writers
and producers have songs in the catalog or in the vault,
and then an artist like Brooklyn comes along and you know,
change the entire sound of the song or the feeling.
How does that even work? Like as a as a

(11:37):
creator of something original and then to see her work
transformed to something else? Is that an easy thing to
let go over you? To me?

Speaker 6 (11:48):
I love it because you know, I look at music
the same way as probably any painter looks at art,
you know, when they're when they're painting, it's it's very
very open, and especially if it's only a guitar or
only a piano, or you're kind of articulated into any

(12:12):
genre you wanted to go into. And Brooklyn is amazing
at making things her own. Like everything that she did
with her viral covers were basically her. So I knew
that once she puts her vocal on it, it was
going to go in a whole different direction.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
I was. I was just excited to see what she
was gonna take it. Yeah, in Brooklyn, that's an amazing
gift that you have. I've heard a thousand covers, maybe
even a million, and a lot of times in my case,
the artist imitates the artists. You know. It sounds just
like them except as in their voice. But you, like

(12:54):
Rio said, you put a different spin on it, you know,
you make it your own. That did you practice doing it?
Like how did you get how did you even how
do you even know how to do that?

Speaker 5 (13:08):
It's actually funny because like, of course you like pick
the songs that you know already, but like sometimes you
hear like a song and you love it, so you
try to like really like see what they do with it.
But also I don't try to listen to it a
lot because then you're gonna have that thing that you're
gonna copy it so much that you just want to

(13:29):
like see what your own what you can do with
your own direction.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
So if you like don't know the song like that
well or haven't listened to it like for such a.

Speaker 5 (13:38):
Long time, that makes it sometimes easier to go into
like a different route with your melodies or with a
yeah picking of notes, I guess.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
So yeah, I think that helps definitely as well.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
And you said that this is the first record that
you've performed with your producer. Uh, what was that experience,
like showing your voice in a completely new way?

Speaker 5 (14:05):
Yeah, so yeah, that was the first song we recorded,
So I was like at first, I was a little
nervous because I always like had a little trouble with
like anxiety and singing in front of other people, and like,
over time you do it way more so it gets easier.
But then in front of him, it was just such
like a step further because it's more professional, and it

(14:29):
was it was just really someone I wanted to work with.
So of course, you like at first you feel like
a little nervous to like sing because you hope that
it's it's different when when you're do it in front
of someone. Of course, then if you hear like a
cover on the in andet of someone. But once we
just like started, it just flowed and it was like

(14:50):
really comfortable and it's such a great experience.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Yeah, Rio, what was your experience?

Speaker 6 (14:58):
Like?

Speaker 2 (15:02):
It was.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (15:06):
I was blown away by her, like I said about
her viral videos, so I was decided to get in.
But I didn't know that she wasn't used to recording
live like on like live on records, Like majority of

(15:28):
her her vocals that she do on the tiktoks and
stuff like that, it's just you know, the song being
played and she just sings, So she wasn't taught formally
how to record, like through protus and everything like that.
So it took it was a little time consuming in

(15:51):
the beginning, and I had the basically teach her, teach
her a bunch of things that I thought she knew
that she didn't know at the time. But she's like
a master at it now.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
So at the time it was.

Speaker 6 (16:11):
Time consuming, and it was you know, we had to
do a lot of takes over and over and over
and over, and then most of it was really because
of her annunciations. Yeah, she has a Dutch enunciation, so
you know, we had to work on the thhs and
the d's and the rs and stuff like that. Once

(16:34):
we got those things down, you here to finished products.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
Yeah. Yeah, man, I remember those days. I used to
be an artist and I thought I knew everything until
I stepped into a real studio. You know, what should
have took an hour, It took like ten hours. But
you know.

Speaker 6 (17:00):
What's the saying. They say, Rome wasn't built in one day.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
That's right, that's right, and but that Bill Man was walking.
But yeah, let'son learn, you know, try to you know,
learn everything outside the studio before you get into it.
But that's that's the hard lesson I had to learn.

(17:24):
All Right, So, Brook, you mentioned that recording this song
brought you to that place emotionally. Is it difficult to
revisit that vulnerability when you perform the song?

Speaker 5 (17:39):
Well, in this case, it was only difficult because of
like what we already said, Like the recording part, like
was just really like difficult with the pronunciation and the
timing and like just really recording it in a studio
setting because it was so different that that was mostly
the hardest part. Because like once I start like singing

(18:01):
and like don't think about those things, it's pretty easily
to tap in emotionally about what you're like talking about
and like really bringing your emotion like Poult put it
in there. I guess how you say that. But just
in this case it was just more like the other
parts that were hard emotionally, I never really had a

(18:25):
problem with it.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
I guess.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (18:29):
That's one thing that I found with her. It's we've
never had a difficult time tapping.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
Into her emotion.

Speaker 6 (18:40):
The struggle that we used to have was the easy
part of the songs, the songs, that part that she's
supposed to be able to just skate through see those
are her difficult moments, but when it's time for her
to like really singing her heart out, he kills that
like really easily.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
Yeah. Nice. Nice. And this song is about fast love
or feelings not being reciprocated. I blame Beyonce. She said,
I can have another U and a minute or a
second to the left. Yeah yeah, no, I'm just playing.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:25):
Yeah. That mixed with social media seems like you're in
a candy shop, you know, swipe left, wipe right type
of thing. But I really believe that people are selfish.
You know, it's it's all about what they can get
and not learning how to give, not learning how to
match energies.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah exactly. I think that's it.

Speaker 5 (19:47):
Yeah, problem of this generation and the social media mostly,
and and what you said with certain music that you
talk about certain stuff being so easy or whatever that
doesn't like have impact on people as.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
Well, Oh how they look at love.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yeah. So what's one lesson about love or heartbreak that
has taught you about yourself?

Speaker 5 (20:14):
I think, like really setting boundaries for yourself, because especially
like with your first love, like it's all new for you,
and so you think it's just like you like have
arguments and this and that, so you always be like Okay,
I'll see past this, and you keep on forgiving and

(20:34):
like go on.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
But like at a.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
Certain point you just really overstep yourself, like with what
you actually allow to happen or something. And it's just
really important to set like certain boundaries for yourself, like
this is it, so you don't like really take train yourself.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
Full of like yeah, all that stuff.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
All right, all right, all right, guys, are you ready
for some music? We have brook Lynn with their song Empty,
produced by Rio, and then we'll be right back to
put her in our traditional hot feet where she could
perform for us if she wants to. She could sing, rap,
do spoken word, tell a joke, tell a story, play
her instrument, give some advice, or do nothing at all.

(21:24):
That is cool as well, But for right now here
it is empty. Stay tuned.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Who would have thought that love?

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Believe me nothing.

Speaker 7 (21:38):
But I really think you'll n good be somebody.

Speaker 8 (21:48):

I'm so sorry.

Speaker 5 (24:37):
I wasn't even prepared for it, Like I didn't even
warm up. It's such a different time zone over here.
But I can tell you like some like a background
story or something.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Okay, we'll love to hear it, because I don't know.

Speaker 5 (24:53):
If that's that was already being said, but because I
like leaving the Netherlands and I live like like like
really pretty distant, like in the middle of a forest,
and I think that is like something that I was
like thinking about that the other day. Like why I

(25:13):
am like like good in certain parts of seeing, like
especially like belting, and like I really get that power
out is because I.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
Live in a fourth and I don't have like neighbors
or I'm.

Speaker 5 (25:24):
Like pretty distant from everything. That that made me always
feel free or something and that I could.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
Like really let it all out.

Speaker 5 (25:34):
That made me probably like every time when I was
home alone that you could like really just let go.
And I think that really like got me to that
point where I try to do that belting.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
As much.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
As Wow, Yeah, that is incredible training. Yeah, all right, Brooklyn,
