I definitely listened to Lauryn Hill - her's was like the first album I bought myself. Brandy's Never Say Never and Lauryn Hill's The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill were always in rotation for a couple of years.

Because of the time we're in, it's so easy to just blend all of it together and it's kind of like you're listening to everything all at once.

I think my life dramatically shifted when I met Lucas [Goodman] and it wasn't even planned. I had a very clear vision of what I was going to do.

There are probably still people that are competitive with each other, but I don't feel that's necessary. I like when we lift each other up.

[My mom] put me in dance class when I was really young just as a thing to do and I loved it. I remember being excited every time I went, no matter how tired I was - it was the one thing that I always liked doing.

Sometimes words come easily and sometimes they don't. Most songs take me twenty minutes to write.

This world is going in all sorts of directions, but I think all you can do is get people to think about things in a different way, because sometimes people aren't even thinking.
