“If I play somebody's mixtape, if it gets on my nerves halfway through because it's too loud or everything sounds the same, it makes me want to approach every song I do differently. I don't want somebody saying, 'That's enough of this,' when they listen to my music.”

“People say it's a quiet flow, that it sounds like I'm in a library. That could have come from when I was living in my old place, a nice loft. I was the youngest person in the building, and I would be working alone on my music. I would get emails two or three times a month about 'loud' music, so I became quieter and quieter about making beats.”

“I have to approach my life in this way so I can do what I need to do, and do it very well.”

“I wanted to be the girl that talks about getting a guy. I felt like that was a different approach to writing.”

“As we've got more data, and ClassPass has grown, we've had to change rather than have a one-size fits all approach.”
