I ain’t the passenger I’m the pilot.
KEHLANII ain’t the passenger I’m the pilot.
KEHLANIMake-up sex, as treacherous as it can be, becomes this fun and playful thing versus this really intense thing. To me the song feels playful.
KEHLANII always wanted to date me.
KEHLANIStardom is a crazy thought. If that’s what my path is, then that’s where I’m excited to be headed towards.
KEHLANII went from broke and homeless sleeping on couches. I couldn’t even figure out what I was doing in Los Angeles. Now, I’m paying my own bills. I’m about to move my mama in with me at 19. I’m on tour now, and this is all off of one mixtape.
KEHLANII’m a healthy eater, but I don’t consider Chick-fil-A fast food.
KEHLANIMy biggest role model right now is Beyonce, just ’cause she is a very, very strong, powerful woman, and that’s obviously the number one reason to be inspired by her. She is just killing every game there is to kill.
KEHLANIVocally, I’m always listening to Brandy. As a writer, I’m always listening to India Arie and Drake.
KEHLANISometimes I make songs about girls, and I say ‘he,’ or I’ll make songs about guys, and I say ‘she,’ or sometimes they’re exactly what they’re about. I feel like it just allows me to get a lot more perspective.
KEHLANIWhen you look at me, you can’t really tell what I am, but I’m black, white, Native, Spanish, and a little bit of Filipino.
KEHLANIFocused on fire. Bringing the heat.
KEHLANII was writing with my homegirl who’s one of my favorite people to work with. We were just sitting in a studio and I said, I want to be able to talk about sex, but very specific kinds of sex.
KEHLANII think most people don’t know that I really write everything myself. No help. There’s nobody in the studio except for me and the engineer. A lot of people don’t think I’m a singer. They think I’m a rapper.
KEHLANIMy pops passed when I was little. I didn’t have a dad around to tell me certain things. I didn’t have my biological mother.
KEHLANIYou are anything but conventional, baby, did ya know?
KEHLANIMy favorite person that I had been running everything by doesn’t even make music, but he is a genius. It’s Kerby [Jean-Raymond] from Pyer Moss. -Kehlani
