What is it that makes you choose to join one Twitch streamer's livestream over another?
To me, that is an important question I ask myself when thinking of ways to make my livestreams more enjoyable for my viewers.
Enter Raquel Lily. For some reason, whenever she is live, I have to stop in to see what's going on and hang out with her and her dope online community.
ย @raquellilyย blends incredible musicianship and comedy into a product that is always entertaining and extremely fun to be a part of.
In our conversation, we talk about her favorite in-person live performance experience, why she loves streaming on Twitch, cooking, travel, cats, and a lot more.

A little more about Raquel:
Born in the Philippines, raised in New York and currently residing in Atlanta, Georgia, Raquel is typically known through the live streaming platform, Twitch. However, the independent musician and producerโs background originally emerged from the medical field. Holding a degree in Neurobiology, Physiology & Behavior upon graduating UC Davis, Lily left to feed her creativity and began online streaming in 2017.
โIโm Leavingโ is a soulful classic nod that speaks on a timeless strength of walking away. The sonic atmosphere stays in its lane of classic R&B but offers chimes of jazz, funky grooves, and era based synths which are equally drenched in soul and electronics (Girl Underground Music). Using a multicultural childhood to infuse her music with an amalgam of sounds and instruments, Lily delivers a fresh and unique sound, entirely her own.
