Weve just been going back and forth on, you know, WhatsApp.
We have the same publishers and they wanted me to demo some songs for Zayn, she says.
I really wanted to write a song for Zayn….We had a couple people in common.
And thats how it came about.
I didnt really approach him for my own record until later on.
First, I thought I wanted to try writing a song for him.
I want to do something else for a bit, she says.
I just feel like I need to spend more periods of time somewhere.
You dont get to just live things out and get involved with communities.
I want to spend some time in Greece, make a documentary [there].
Something useful for a bit.
