Let’s Be Franc

I’m settling in for my phone chat with emerging Brit-Bajan singer-songwriter, Livvi Franc. It’s her day off, and she’s laying on the beach in Barbados soaking up the sun. Her friendly English-Caribbean accent is easy and relaxed, the sound of a young woman who comes across as anything but a bitch. Yet, that is the title of her empowering anthem “Now I’m That Bitch” featuring Pitbull – the rhythmic hot single off her self-titled debut album. Honey spoke with the 21-year-old pop gem to find out why she’s that bitch.

HoneyMag: Your first single, “Now I’m That Bitch” is making quite a statement! Why did you feel the need to write such an empowering song?
Livvi Franc: I think I was at this point in my life where I feel like I got all of the negativity out of my personal life. I just felt very confident. The whole idea of the song is just about being in control and knowing what you want. I just wanted to make that statement … people hear the title “I’m that bitch” and they think “She’s calling herself a bitch?” But you know, the whole thing with the word bitch, everyone has their own meaning for it. For me, I’m making it so that it’s positive: A Babe In Total Control of Herself. I’m reclaiming it. It’s not about being aggressive. It’s not about being feisty or anything like that. It’s just about being in control and knowing what you want in your life and what you don’t want.

How was it working with Pitbull?
It was great! When I finished playing the song, we just felt like it could be great to get that male perspective on the song. And it’s great because people would hear the song and say “okay, it’s female empowerment, it’s a man bashing song.” With the male perspective, it sort of softens it, and makes people realize it’s more universal. It could be both sides. It could be a guy that gets passed by, he could say — well, not that he’s that bitch (laughs) — but he could say now he’s that dude. It was great working with him; he’s got great energy. I’m really happy. I loved the way that he complimented the record.

Was there any chemistry between you two. Did he try to hit on you?
Ah no! None of that, none of that (laughs)!

The folks over at Flavour Magazine in the UK have done a feature on our Livvi Franc. Besides the usual stuff we know like her English/Barbadian background, how her stage name came about, and the meaning behind Now I’m That B.I.T.C.H., we learn some more interesting news.
As reported before, not only is Livvi an amazingly talented singer, she’s also a gifted songwriter. So far we know she has written for Kevin Lyttle, Marie Digby (where she helped to co-write and sing on the track “Overboard” on Marie’s album), Jordin Sparks (she co-wrote Jordin’s song Walking on Snow), and Cheryl Cole (Livvi co-wrote a song for Cheryl’s upcoming album called “Rain on Me”).
But this next person is truly special. As you will read in this article, a song Livvi Franc wrote was actually picked by the one and only Michael Jackson.

Livvi Franc: She’s a babe in total control

Hailing from Barbados, RnB singer Livvi Franc spent the first few years of her life in Harrogate, North Yorkshire. However at the age of five, she and the family moved to her father’s homeland of Barbados where she grew up. ‘Barbados is very different from England. It’s slower paced, but I used to travel back to England every summer, so I didn’t miss it too much.’
Born Olivia Charlotte Waithe, Livvi Franc is the newest singer-songwriting sensation to come from the islands, and she isn’t surprised to be compared to the world’s most famous Bajan, Rihanna. ‘In this industry you will always be compared to someone – I’m glad it’s someone so gorgeous and successful,’ she laughs.

What’s in a name?
‘The stage name Livvi Franc was inspired by my granddad,’ Livvi explains. ‘His name was Frank Wilson, and when I was about two, he noticed me playing the piano and predicted I was going to be a musician. Sadly he’s no longer here. So, in honour of him, I called myself Livvi Franc; Livvi because it’s my nickname, and Franc because it’s a funkier version of Frank.’
After considering a number of careers from interior design to acting, Livvi went on to impress Jive Records in 2007 with her rendition of an Etta James classic, and soon signed with the label. ‘I hadn’t really found what I wanted to be or what I wanted to do. I was always changing my mind. One week I wanted to do this, the next week it was something else.’
