Everything To Everyone (Deluxe)

Product Information

Rapp was born on January 10, 2000. She attended high school at Hopewell High School in Huntersville, North Carolina, for three years, performing in the theater program and playing on the varsity women's golf team before transferring to Northwest School of the Arts. [2] Corey Mitchell, Rapp's theater teacher, said Rapp "has a special distinction...There is a difference when that vocal ability is coupled with sincere emotions that can move an audience and that literally can excite an audience". [3] Eventually, she realized that her sensitivity was her secret weapon. She learned to harness her creative energy and feelings by writing and recording music. Studio sessions, live shows, and even a brief stint in a girl group followed before she landed her big break as a musical theater performer while still in high school. Rapp’s talent was soon recognized, nabbing her musical theater trophies for Best Actress at North Carolina’s Blumey Awards and the national Jimmy Awards, which got her attention from agents in New York. “I promised my parents that if they let me take a semester off from college, somehow I would land a job on Broadway,” she says. SHAPIRO: It almost sounds like having this relationship with your fans allows the process of writing and releasing music to be more of a two-way street than the cliche go into a studio, record an album, then release it to the world and see how it lands.

RAPP: So essentially what happened is, like, ever since I was, you know, born or, like, had a thought, I kind of always knew that, like, being an artist and being a musician and a songwriter was exactly what I wanted to do. And I was very determined to do whatever I had to to get to this point. And I was always on stage. My mom would sometimes put me in local musicals in my hometown. And I didn't love it, but I was like, this is a great opportunity for me to perform. I just always related to, like, pop artists and pop music more. And, like, Beyonce was more interesting to me than, like, "Merrily We Roll Along," personally.

For me, I go based on lyrics — I’m such a lyric person. Too Well is a melody-based [and] works really well for pop and consumption, but I am a Colorado person through and through.”Since the release of Everything To Everyone, the breakout talent has sold out every headline show she’s performed, including her debut UK show at O2 Forum Kentish Town last month.

As GAY TIMES’ current Amplify cover star, Rapp opened up about the musical influences that shape her sound and art: “I listen mostly to R&B or indie-leaning stuff and Too Well was the song that I felt would perform the best, but it wasn’t the song that I loved the most,” she explains. RAPP: To be honest, it was the first song that I felt good enough about to, like, really post on social media. I don't think I ever thought I would put it out though. It just gained traction in a way that I had kind of always dreamt of. Once I had numbers online that were easily digestible to people who are in music, they were like, oh, people do actually want to listen to this. Havens, Lyndsey (June 3, 2022).
