Alessia Cara first heard Alanis Morissette’s music in sixth grade, and her influence has been felt ever since: 'She’s a great case study for how you can be yourself and not have to follow the pop-star thing.'
is extremely honest. It feels like you’re listening to a diary or something that you almost shouldn’t be hearing. I always like when women are unapologetically honest and raw in theirlyrics, so that album was really influential to me as a writer. I tend to be a very shy person, and especially when I was coming into being a songwriter, I held back a lot, just because I was afraid of being too honest or too negative.
As a pop singer and as a pop girl myself, I think we get sucked into the idea of note perfection and quality perfection, but I always admired the fact that she wasn’t always on pitch. She favored emotion over perfection. She still has such an amazing voice and great pitch, but sometimes she wasn’t afraid to go off or to let her voice crack. All of those little holes, I always felt those were really, really impactful — 10 times more impactful than something that sounded sonically perfect.
I think the industry places a lot of importance on women constantly having to prove themselves: It’s a thing that we feel a lot of pressure to do as women. She’s a great case study for how you can be yourself and not have to follow the pop-star thing. Honesty has the most longevity over anything. Her music still holds up nowadays, and it’s because of that honesty.
