Tiz said in an interview that she wrote the song about a darker period in her life where she felt like nothing was going her way, but her brother was there to tell her to chin up, keep moving, and never give up. It was cowritten with Kinetics & One Love, songwriter Emily Warren and was produced by JR Rotem.〔http://www.warnerchappell.com/song-details/WW010475230000〕 A music video for "Whistle (While You Work It)" was filmed and released by Syndrome Studio and director James Larese. The ''Xanadu''-like video combines live action with animation elements and shows Tiz springing to life from street art, then proceeding on an adventure with a crew of animated animal friends. Tiz is an avid animal lover and fan of Banksy's street art and has said in an interview, “This video comes from my love of graffiti artwork and takes inspiration from some of the greatest fairytales of all time." Tiz's debut studio album is set to be released in 2015, and has stated that she worked with her brother, Kinetics & One Love, Emily Warren, and JR Rotem. Tiz stated about the album in an interview with Idolator: "Something about this album is that it is very consistent, it’s not just different songs from different producers.", Tiz also stated in the same interview about the album's sound and lyrics, and about collaborating with her brother: "It’s sort of reggae-inspired as far as the feeling goes. It’s a real piece of honesty for the first time in my life. It’s how I genuinely feel about things, and things that myself and my friends have experienced. Nothing was pushed on me, my label was amazing with joining me on this journey. That’s really inspiring for me, because it makes me believe in my own voice. I’ve worked with my brother on a lot of this music, and it’s something that I’m really proud of.". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Katy Tiz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
