I decide immediately if I like a person and if I do, then I'm myself, and if I don't, then I give nothing.

I try to see as much dance, theatre and films as I can because all of it feeds me in a way that I need feeding for what I do.

I'd want to read the stories that I'd written, I'd want to show the drawings that I made. That was just purely natural. So I knew I wanted to go into the arts in some way and that I'd want to show that work in some way.

It varies, I don't think there is any one set way of writing songs or coming up with ideas, it comes in so many ways you know.

The first song I heard from me was Meek Mill ["I Don't Know"], it was his first single before he went (to jail). I remember the first time I heard it was like eleven thirty at night, and I was like, "Yo, this is crazy!" And, I was smiling from ear to ear.

[I] try to do both because the writing for me, to be a new artist, the writing is gonna pay the bills.

I feel like I make a soundtrack for the come up, and I feel like there's so many people that's trying to figure out how to chase their dreams, or that are in the process of chasing their dreams, so they connect with that. And then being a singer, you don't really get to touch on nothing either.
