Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
This week Pip is joined by the incredible Rebecca Lucy Taylor aka SELF ESTEEM!
A huge episode right here, spraypaint-style in content in that it contains so much more than the runtime might suggest. The magnificent Self Esteem joins Pip to talk on all things including creativity, motivation, mental wellbeing, burnout, band psychology, getting ahead of potential comments, catharthis through lyricism, touring and how the terrain is geared towards men, being a "diva" when asking for things, and just so much more which only call for a part 2 in the near future. But without getting ahead of ourselves, let's enjoy the greatness of this one, and go and listen and watch at nearest opportunities. You'll love this episode. Enjoy.

0:00.0 | Welcome, welcome, welcome. This is the distraction pieces podcast episode 455. And this is one of those episodes |
0:09.9 | where I finished it and thought that is as good an episode as I've ever done. I'm chatting this week |
0:16.1 | with Self-esteem. A singer that I had recommended so many times in recent years, Rebecca Lucy Taylor, |
0:24.4 | aka Self-esteem. And I have a thing I spoke about this with Sleaf and Mods. Anytime anyone pops up |
0:31.7 | and they have any songs or anything with anything close to some spoken word in it, I have loads of |
0:37.5 | people tweeting me about it or DMing me about it or whatever. And I have a natural resistance. |
0:43.3 | So I held off on Self-esteem for a bit until friend of the podcast, the Dr. Susie Gage reached out |
0:50.1 | and said you got to check this person out. So I gave him a listen. They're absolutely astounding. |
0:56.1 | Melissa also who works at the label hit me up about having Self-esteem on the pod. So I did kind |
1:01.4 | of a deep dive and I was blown away. But this is going to be a bit of a long-rambling intro. |
1:06.8 | For anyone who's new to the podcast, if this is your first time listening, these are conversations. |
1:12.5 | It's not an interview. So don't get mad when it's not just, here's question number one, |
1:18.4 | here's question number two, we go back and forth, we talk over each other, we interact each |
1:22.4 | other, it was glorious. I really enjoyed chatting to Rebecca. But one of the reasons I was so excited |
1:28.6 | about it was I connected with so much of their music as I started hearing it. And for those who are |
1:36.0 | from my fan base, I want to give a few examples and say kind of where I recognised the energy from |
1:43.3 | because not only connected with what was being said but connected with creating about this stuff |
1:49.3 | and in this way, I'll explain. I mean a few of you won't know, I used to do music for many years. |
1:55.0 | And we touch upon that. Me and Rebecca gig together. I'm sure it was twice. I know it was at least once |
2:02.0 | in a previous incarnation or band that they were in. And yeah, so I started doing a deep dive. I'll |
2:09.7 | always go to music videos first because music videos were a huge part of my creative process. |
2:16.0 | And we talk about that and there's a connection there. But there was a particular song. |
