I’m never gonna stop music, it’s like air to me.

When the ideas are coming, I don’t stop until the ideas stop because that train doesn’t come along all the time.

I never thought a career as a musician was possible.

I’m not a category of a person. I’m the same person, for my whole life. I like this thing this time, and I like this thing that time.

I’ve always liked being busy. If I have nothing to do for a week, it just makes me mad.

Pirate was going to be my middle name, but then my uncle had a problem with it because pirates are bad.

I don’t see myself as a pop artist. Like, when you hear ‘pop,’ you’re like, ‘Oh, bubblegum, jumpy little girly stuff,’ and I feel like, ‘Uh-uh. That’s not me.

The music I make on this album is definitely matured. It’s a bit of a different state of mind even though it’s the same person. You grow and you grow and you don’t know what the next album is going to be about. You never know what I’m going to say.

It’s always been in me. I just had to be confident enough to let it out.

I was very camera shy. People like hot girls, so I put my music to hot girls and it just became a trend. The whole ‘enigmatic artist’ thing, I just ran with it. No one could find pictures of me.
