“I make bad decisions frequently. They’re fun.”

I worry so much. Like, ‘Damn, how can I be excellent?’ But it’s a journey.

Everything I love I over do.

Nothing feels better than switching wigs for no reason.

How many thick black women are there singing whatever I’m singing, surrounded by rappers, but also from the suburbs? I can’t really judge someone else for judging me!

I love cuffing season. It’s a very inspiring season for those who want to be inspired.

I will be feeling morbid and joyful at the same time.

I was born in St. Louis, but I’m from Maplewood, New Jersey. Maplewood is completely different than the rest of New Jersey. It’s very small. It’s quietly affluent but more low-key. Lauryn Hill is from my town, though.

Music is my form of cleansing and introspection, so I have to grow in order to accomplish it. SZA

Every day I pray to see myself the way God and others see me.

Your energy told me what your mouth couldn’t.

I just make music however I feel and pray that it connects, and if it does, I’m super thankful. I think genres are more for other people, not for yourself.

I don’t enjoy being interviewed. I feel like it exhausts a lot of my energy. I feel empty after.

Pain plus love and time = power.

I don’t have a background in music, and I have a short attention span. If you put me in the studio every day, I’m gonna get lost.

People grapple with labeling me as hip-hop, R&B, or pop, and it’s interesting to me. I’m just making music.

Don’t get discouraged with your skin when it doesn’t do what you want it to do, Give it some time. That’s the only way to get to know yourself.
