I came across this contest where you had to write to one of his instrumentals. I remember sitting in my bed one day, and I looked him up for like, hours. I didn’t know who he was, but everyone at school kept screaming this boy’s name. During that time, Justin Bieber was huge. I didn’t realize that this was 100% what I wanted to do until I was in junior high. T: Before I even knew that I wanted to be a singer, I was always kind of entertaining people. TG: Can you remember any specific event that helped shape you into the musician that you are today? This entire downtime has just been a time of growing for me, and I’ve enjoyed it. That experience was really cool because I got to learn a new field. I got to do a whole little quarantine video for myself, and I edited it. I sat in my room, put up my camera, and started recording. I remember at the beginning of quarantine, I had just put out a new single, “Come See Me,” and I wasn’t sure how I was going to promote it. I feel like I got to tap into more and what I love to do during the quarantine. There’s so much more growing I have to do. And I feel like it helped me open up and just become more of who I am today. T: When it comes to the situation with the police brutality and everything for me, I had a really big moment where I just had to take a step back and really evaluate what I wanted to do and how I wanted people to see me and just like myself in general. TG: Has the pandemic, social justice movements, and other 2020 events impacted you creatively? People sharing how the song makes them feel encourages me to keep doing what I’m doing. I feel like it liberated me even more because I was able to express it to other people.

But I feel like the fact that I was able to use my voice made me free myself. I remember when we were planning to release that song, I was super nervous about it because it was a sensitive topic. It was a good track to release to let people just feel motivated and feel empowered, and liberated in a way and feel good within themselves. That song helped me break free from whatever was restricting me and I wanted people to be able to feel. Originally, I really wanted it to be big on empowering women, because there are so many different situations, not only in my field, where women can feel held back.
T: That song came from a place of wanting to free myself from something that was holding me back. TG: What does your song “Free” mean to you? Can you share the creative process?
