Sometimes personal stories are personal for others, too. Connie Lim’s song “Quiet,” about surviving sexual abuse, resonated with millions after a bystander captured a performance of the song at the Women’s March in 2017. It catapulted her into stardom and a deal with Atlantic Records.
But just as Lim (known also as MILCK) reclaimed her story through “Quiet,” she has also found a way to take charge of making music and money her own way, through innovative partnerships, like one with P&G.
Partnerships are a part of her music, too: “Harmony is a really good exercise of learning how to trust myself to sing a note while others sing their own unique notes. And then together with that trust and self expression, we create something really beautiful.”
