This is something I care about.

This is something that has to stop, something we all need to heal from.

She continued: I can only hope my voice and the lyrics will reach people.

Its also a complicated thing.

Im not an African American woman, so how do [I] speak about those things?

It feels impossible; how can Inotsay something.

How could I possibly make an album about twerking my ass in the club?

In my mind, I cant reckon it.

The more we mask the shame of this anxiety, the harder its going to be to heal.

Ive always been obsessed with music and I enjoy transformation.

Transformation through music is one of the most beautiful gifts.
