Interview mit Khaile Emjey Esquivel

Erzähl uns von dir, wer bist du und woher kommst du?

I’m Khaile Emjey Esquivel, a Filipino singer-songwriter and author with Spanish, Chinese, and Filipino roots. I was born and raised in the Philippines, and I’ve always been passionate about expressing emotions through both words and music. My creative journey started with writing stories and poetry, which eventually grew into songwriting — a space where I can turn feelings and experiences into melodies.

Wie wurde deine Leidenschaft für Musik geboren? Wer sind deine Vorbilder?

My passion for music was born from emotion itself. Growing up, I used to write poems and short stories to express what I couldn’t say out loud. Eventually, those words started to feel like melodies in my head — that’s when I realized music was another way to tell my stories. I began writing songs during quiet nights, using music to heal, to remember, and to speak my truth. What started as a hobby became my safe place — and now, it’s something I want to share with others who might find comfort in the same way I did.

Welche Art von Musik machst du?

I create Pop, Country Pop, and OPM music

Was ist der wichtigste Song für dich? Welche Botschaft willst du den Zuhörern vermitteln?

The most important song for me is “Wishing Well.” It’s very personal because it’s about wishing for more time — especially with the people you love, like your family. It’s a song that came from a deep place in my heart, written during a moment when I realized how fragile and precious time really is. The message I want to share through “Wishing Well” is simple but powerful: cherish every moment, say what you feel, and don’t take the people you love for granted. Life moves fast, and sometimes we forget that even ordinary days can become the memories we’ll miss the most. I hope this song reminds listeners to hold on to those moments and love a little louder while they still can.

Warum sollte ein Hörer, der dich nicht kennt, deine Musik hören?

My music isn’t about perfection; it’s about connection. If you’ve ever felt lost, hopeful, or quietly strong, you’ll find a piece of yourself in my songs. I want my music to feel like comfort — like someone understands you even without words.

Was sind deine zukünftigen Projekte? Wo siehst du dich in 5 Jahren?

In the future, I plan to release more original songs that tell deeper stories — not just about love, but about growth, dreams, and finding peace in life’s chaos. I also want to collaborate with other Filipino and international artists, and eventually produce a full album that reflects who I am as both a singer-songwriter and author. Five years from now, I see myself performing on bigger stages, reaching a wider audience, and continuing to write songs and books that touch people’s hearts. I want to build a creative space where music, art, and literature meet — a place that inspires others to chase their own passions and believe in their voice.

Erzähle unseren Lesern eine lustige Episode aus deiner Karriere als Künstlerin.

One funny moment in my journey as an artist was when I was composing my very first song. I was singing out loud, completely lost in the emotion — only to realize later that I was totally out of tune the whole time! But I didn’t care; I was just having fun and enjoying the process. That moment reminded me that music doesn’t always have to be perfect — sometimes, the best part is simply letting yourself feel it.
