Who is George Radu
His father was the one who, at just 4 years old, first laughed at the piano, together with him, and later realized that the music works for him. It started to take small piano lessons, guitar, and then, singing courses.
Over time he composed for other people, and at 23 he made the decision to move to Bucharest, to be closer to the fulfillment of his dream.
George told Antena 1, after the show, that one of the most valuable tips he offered Marius Moga was not to “try to look like an artist”, but “to be”.
“One of the most valuable things Marius told me was:” Do not try to seem artist. Be! ” Hit me directly. I realized that we are often tempted to build an image, to be how we think you should, when the strongest is to be honest, to assume exactly who you are, all with chaos, vulnerability, courage or confusion. Since then I try not to think about what the world is expecting, but what I feel ”the competitor X Factor replied.
Also, his source of inspiration when he composes is Freddie Mercury, the vocalist of the famous Queen band.
“Freddie Mercury is the man who inspired me the most when it comes to what the artist’s job means. It was never the prisoner of any kind or any form-only extraordinary energy and a presence that made everything seem possible. From him I learned that you should not be afraid to” occupy the whole scene “, to be intense. freedom, not to write to tick something but to feel“George explained.
