QUOTES
I believe everyone should be equal, and we should all love and support each other and express ourselves the way we want to express ourselves and be whoever we want. That's my motto.
I'm just happy I got to express who I am as an artist and touch people's hearts.
I wanted people to understand that I have my own music, and I didn't want to sing other people's songs at shows.
It's really hard for me to finish a song unless I have a strong visual in my head while I'm writing it.
I'm not necessarily a happy singer. That's not who I am as an artist.
