SZAI worry so much. Like, ‘Damn, how can I be excellent?’ But it’s a journey.
SZAEspecially when I’m nervous, my mind is running a mile a minute. My ADHD speaks for me before I can speak for me.
SZAMy mom was an executive at AT&T, a global account lady. I have no idea what she did. I just know she was never home and speaks several languages.
SZAMy mom didn’t let me eat sugar or candy until I was older.
SZAI don’t have any control over what actually happens except that I have full control over my will for myself, my intention, and why I’m there. That’s all that matters.
SZAWhen your parents regulate everything you hear and everything you intake, it forces you to get creative in other ways. It sparked the writing bug and the very overactive imagination. Because I’ve had a lot of time by myself and a lot of time isolated from regular culture, I created my own.
SZAIt starts with trusting yourself, even if people are telling you you’re too young to trust yourself.
SZAI 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.
SZAKicked myself out the algorithm.
SZAWe’re changing little girls’ lives across the world, and we didn’t even know what we were doing when we started.
SZASugar makes me feel crazy – like, makes my body hurt kind of a thing. I don’t really eat fruit because it has a lot of sugar. I try not to eat a lot of red meat, but every now and again, I feel like I need iron or something – something that I’m missing.
SZANo one sets an impossible beauty standard like ya own mama lmao.
SZAI used to be very revenge-motivated, but that’s just because I’m a Scorpio. Now I’m more so, like, practice honesty just because it makes you feel better.
SZAI make bad decisions frequently. They’re fun.
SZAI’ve been known to wear pajamas onstage for the sole reason of wanting to make sure I’m free enough to execute new things vocally on stage and give my best performance possible.
