Naming Our Artist

During today's lesson, we decided that we should focus on actually naming our artist and what image she should have. Also we thought about how we could promote the song.
We feel that the name of the artist is important for how appealing they sound and look. This is obviously why some artists, in real life actually change their name (also known as their stage name); a lot of rappers do this for example Eminem's real name is Marshall Mathers, and even some country singers change their names for example Shania Twain's real name is Eilleen Edwards. Both of the names Eminem and Shania Twain sound more appropriate for 'show biz' and for the genre that there music is catorgorized as.
Some names we researched and came up with were Delilah, Summer Scotts and Jasmine however we have not decided on one for certain.
We also conisdered using just a forename and not a surname which works for some real life artists such as Gabrielle. The name is important, to create a 'star image,' it also can tell the audience what type of genre the music is, for example you wouldn't get a name like 50 Cent in the country genre. When we have decided the name we can continue to develop the album cover for example, choosing an appropriate font, an almost creating a brand for the artist.
