Alessia Cara announces her own ‘Giant Desk’ performance after being rejected by NPR’s Tiny Desk multiple times: “I exercised free will and built my own!”

Good for her.

I remember she was really pushed by her label and her songs were on every radio station non stop. I guess GP didn’t respond.

I didn’t know you can get rejected to do a Tiny Desk Concert

Kinda funny if this blows up and other artist approach her to preform and Giant desk becomes a brand of its own lol

Tiny Desk provides a platform to such a wide variety of artists with a pretty healthy display of differing popularity size.

If they are rejecting her multiple times, I am sure there is a good reason lol

i get the idea but actually naming it that is just kinda sad to me lol

“I’ll make my own, and it’ll have hookers and blow!” Energy

I’ve seen way worse candidates for Tiny Desk show get a spot so good for her! I won’t be tuning in however.

she literally sings in the Moana soundtrack don’t tell me she’s not a star

I don’t know who she is, but I’ll trust in the Tiny Desk team.
