INTERVIEW: Va$htie Kola x Sneaker Freaker Magazine
Music video director and fashion designer, Va$htie Kola did a interview recently with Sneaker Freaker magazine. Check out a few photos from her shoot and excerpts from the interview here:
How challenging is it as a female director working in such a male ego driven scene?
It’s hard for some men to understand your capabilities if they aren’t used to seeing a woman in a traditionally male-driven occupation, I understand that. What is really unfortunate is that it can be a boy’s club - men wanting to collaborate with other men. There are so many female directors that get overlooked because maybe these men don’t think that we understand the angles of ‘sex’, ‘street’ or ‘masculinity’… but, we do. Realistically, it’s challenging to be anything in the world. I’d have issues if I was a black man or if I was a gay woman or if I was deaf or if I lived in a third world country. Everyone has challenges and I seriously can’t complain, considering there are people who have much bigger problems than me ‘being a girl in a man’s world’.
