“Once you go great, you never go good..You never go back, even if you could.”

I started rapping since, like, 14. But I’ve been obsessed with rap from when I was 11. I heard ‘Baby Don’t Cry,’ I’ll never forget.

There’s an obligation to not lead people down the wrong path, but I hardly think me wearing short shorts on stage is creating monsters.

There’s a difference between being yourself and being your stereotype.

I think music talks to you on an emotional level, regardless of where you’re from. I guess I related to the tempo of rap, the aggressiveness.

A lot of people heard ‘Murda Business’ and thought it was about killing people, trying to be tough and hardcore. If you actually listen to the lyrics, it’s kind of silly and playful.

People think I’m more wild than I am. I like going to theme parks, play sports or just hanging out with my friends.

My management team are all women. Most of the people at labels I liaise with are all women. It’s pretty much all women all the time.

I love musk oil. There’s something about musk that makes it memorable without being overpowering.

No one can break me down. I know my worth and its a beautiful thing.

T.I.’s my mentor; he’s a really close friend of mine. I call him my brother like we talk on the phone all the time. He’s helped me with my career.

Being talked about like a package – I feel like that all the time.

Not every artist is a role model.

For me, visuals are as important as the music. I just love escapism and giving people something to escape to. To me, that’s what art is.

Pledge allegiance to the struggle.

I’m irrational about all things creative and I’m always late!

Women in music have the bigger balls anyhow we endure much more harassment and critic.
