When I was very young I wanted to be an opera singer, a ballet dancer... The people I loved were a little different.

I've been inspired by people's work, but I never grew up with posters on my bedroom wall or obsessed with one person.

I do have traditional values: I believe in being a good person and being polite.

I have amazing collaborators as well, but I want to learn more and be a self-contained unit.

When I first put out music, people didn't know what I looked like. They called it a new type of something, they couldn't put a genre on it - it was where indie and urban kind of meet in the middle. I thought that was quite exciting.

I don't think it's realistic for someone to have an undying loyalty to everything you ever make.
