Okay, so I was chilling the other day, just scrolling through some old music videos, and I stumbled upon Nelly Furtado. You know, “I’m Like a Bird,” “Promiscuous,” all those jams from back in the day. It got me thinking, what’s she up to now? I haven’t heard much from her lately. So I got this bright idea to do a little “then and now” comparison. It’s not exactly rocket science, but it seemed like a fun little project.

Digging into the Past
First, I went back to her early stuff. I watched a bunch of her old music videos, checked out some interviews from the early 2000s, and even dug up some old magazine articles. Man, she was everywhere back then! Her music was so unique, mixing pop, R&B, and even some folk influences. And her style? Totally unforgettable. I kind of forgot how big she was.
- Watched “I’m Like a Bird” music video like five times.
- Found an old interview where she talked about her Portuguese heritage.
- Read a magazine article about her fashion choices.
Fast Forward to Today
Then I started looking into what she’s been doing recently. I checked her social media, and it looks like she’s still making music, but it’s definitely a different vibe. More independent, less mainstream. She’s done some collaborations with other artists, and she seems really passionate about her personal projects. It’s cool to see her evolution. She had a bit of a moment in 2023 with a new single, it is good to see that she never left the stage.
- Scrolled through her Instagram feed. She is very active there.
- Found a recent song of hers that’s pretty chill.
- Read a recent interview about her new music.
Putting It All Together
After I gathered all this stuff, I decided to make a little side-by-side comparison. I grabbed some screenshots from her old videos and compared them to her recent photos. I also listened to some of her old hits and then played her newer stuff. It’s really interesting to see how much she’s changed, both musically and personally. She’s grown up, just like her fans. Her music changed a lot too.
- Made a collage of old and new photos.
- Created a playlist with her old and new songs.
- Jotted down some notes about the differences in her music.
Honestly, this whole thing was just a fun trip down memory lane. It’s amazing to see how artists like Nelly Furtado evolve over time. She’s definitely not the same pop star she was back in the day, but she’s still making music and doing her thing. And that’s pretty awesome, right? It kind of reminded me that we all change and grow, and that’s okay.
This “research” was not hard at all, but it was a fun little thing to do on a lazy afternoon. I just wanted to share with you. Hope you enjoyed it!
