My father was a musician, so I feel like falling into this career was a bit inevitable.

Redbone’ from Childish Gambino – that is my ideal summer tune. It’s already gone and done its thing, but I want it to live on forever.

I like how powerful fashion makes me feel. I live for that grungy-prissy juxtaposition that Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, and Drew Barrymore wore in the ’90s.

I get a bit insecure if I feel like there’s too much makeup on my face or if I feel like I’m cakey.

Feeling Insecurity Make Up Myself
My goal is to get my music out to as many people as possible. That a song of mine is being played on the radio so far away from home really, really pushes me. It’s everything I’ve dreamed of.

The first album I was given when I was quite young was the ‘Whoa, Nelly!’ album by Nelly Furtado. After, I also got the ‘Missundaztood’ album by Pink. That’s when I was like, ‘Oh my God, I want to be just like them!’

For a female artist, it takes a lot more to be taken seriously if you’re not sat down at a piano or with a guitar, you know?

Art Music Oppression Serious
It’s challenging to open for someone: You’ve got to prep the audience, get them in the mood, and get their attention if they don’t know you. You’re going to show them what songs you’ve got. You’ve got to leave your mark.

I’m heavily influenced by the Nineties – I love juxtaposing a slip dress with trainers and a vintage leather jacket.

Fashion Myself
I use a toothbrush on my lips as a lip scrub; occasionally, I use a toothbrush with some dark eye shadow on my eyebrows if I want to fill them in. And if I want a really thick, textured look with mascara, I put one on my lashes, as well.

My first concert was Method Man and Redman because they came down to Kosovo.

I’ve always been very much in control of my music and my image, and I think one of the things I’ve been lucky about is I didn’t bring a label on board until I really figured out who I was.

I never really wanted to base success on charts and chart positioning. For me, it’s really about the shows and seeing them grow.

Traveling is the worst for skin, and it shows instantly. Once you’re working non-stop, you can instantly see it.

For a male artist, people instantly assume they write their own music, but for women, they assume it’s all manufactured.

I love Pink and Nelly Furtado – the honesty and truth in their lyrics. I also love Kendrick Lamar and Chance the Rapper.

Honesty Love Myself Truth
My parents never pushed me towards music. I feel like, growing up in a musical household and always being surrounded by it, I was always kind of a performer child. I remember my parents would have guests over, and they would bring their kids, and I would make sure that we were ready to put a show on.
