I Don't Really Have Guilty Pleasures. Anything

There's Just So, So Many Overlooked R&b Artists And I Think It's Really About, Again, Being Sensitive To Whatever You're Addressing Culturally. I Just Always Try To Have A Sensitivity To It And What That Might Make Someone Feel.

I Have Been Writing Songs Since I Was 9 Years Old, So Writing Has And Always Will Be My First Love And Passion.

There Were Things That Had Been Weighing Heavy On Me For Quite Some Time. And I Went Into This Hole, Trying To Work Through Some Of These Things So That I Could Be A Better Me And Be A Better Mom To Julez And Be A Better Wife And A Better Friend And A Better Sister.

I Always Have Looked At "indie" As A Term Of "independence." Never Associated A Sonic Gesture With That In The Same Way That Pop Music Has Always Meant "popular" To Me It Didn't Define A Sound. And I Think Now That Has Been The Context For Things. If Something Is Indie, It Almost Has This Sonic Association With It, Or Pop Has Become This Term Of Shame Almost, Like, Bubblegum Sweet Pop.

I Was Working Through A Lot Of Challenges At Every Angle Of My Life, And A Lot Of Self-doubt, A Lot Of Pity-partying. And I Think Every Woman In Her Twenties Has Been There - Where It Feels Like No Matter What You Are Doing To Fight Through The Thing That Is Holding You Back, Nothing Can Fill That Void.
