The star behind Kamillions of streams: Camille ‘Kamille’ Purcell
MUSIC CREATIVE Camille ‘Kamille’ Purcell,
singer/songwriter/producer “I’ve learned so much along the way from so many incredible women and I want to thank my incredible managers, team at BMG and publisher – we’ve had so many No.1s together. I want to thank everyone. I don’t care if I’m going to fail, that’s one thing I’ve realised this year. I’m just going to be brave now. I might fail, but I just don’t care because I’m going to learn something from that, that’s why I decided to step out on my own and do my own label and find more talent and give them things I’ve learned. I’ve never been more inspired to be a black woman in this industry. I hate even using the black thing, my parents taught me to go for it, whatever race you are. But at times like this I remember, ‘Oh yeah, I am black and there’s not many of us’. I’m really proud of that. To all my women in here, keep thriving, keep surviving, don’t call your ex back and move on with your life! Thank you so much.”

Jackie Davidson MBE, manager “Not only have Kamille’s songs been listened to by millions of people, her songs touch millions of lives. And that is, in itself, incredible. She’s a dynamic woman, and I’m so proud of her because she’s a woman of colour, which is even harder. It really is. She’s a trailblazer for so many young women who want to follow what she’s doing. She empowers them to try. It’s an incredible thing when you can get somewhere with just your talent, and the glass ceilings and the gatekeepers aren’t there to hold you back. She’s just doing it with talent and it’s just boundless what you can achieve that way.”
