People don't care what men wear or how they look. Unfortunately for women, the music industry is very visual and objectifying. The objectification of our bodies and using our bodies to sell things needs to change. A lot of this marketing stuff comes from men, so we definitely need more women behind the scenes.

With different scenarios and different places, I think it's easier for me to get inspired; I'm seeing different things.

The fact that people are embracing me so well as a new artist and being taken so seriously is something I'm really surprised by.

I feel New York is too crazy for me, especially when you go to Times Square.

I feel people are seeing me as a true artist rather than a singer, or an entertainer, or a girl who just makes songs.

No matter what I put out, no matter what genre - because I feel like I'm going to experiment with everything - I hope people will see that it's true to me, that it's honest, and nobody ever thinks that I'm inauthentic.

If I'm experiencing a different thing every day and seeing a new environment every day, it can create a different mood or different feeling.
