No one goes to BrooklynVegan to read about content, they just go for drama. It's a tabloid, the scum of indie.

Everyone in our generation lives in a world where you're surrounded by all sorts of music all the time. People's tastes are made of combinations of genres.

The only thing that deeply frustrates me is the slow speed [of major labels]. The more people involved, the slower the pace.

I think all the songs [at Moth] are about different things, but if we were to speak about it as a whole, it's really about, it's about joy, and about sensuality and vulnerability and also fun, energy, living in New York in 2015, being out of control, wanting to be in control, failing! It's a sort of story of our lives.

It's a lot different being a hip-hop artist. You just show up with a piece of paper with your words on it, say it in the mic, then you leave and some other guy does all the music.

Do not be precious about your music within your own world. Try everything you want to try; just because it exists doesn't mean it's done.

I was really inspired by this feeling of mania, a caricature of myself that I look down upon and see negatively.
