00:00I'm really a lover girl at heart. I don't know if people know that, but I just want to explore that part of me.
00:06My demographic is just human, the human experience, people who love good music, and that's not always like received.
00:14So to actually have evidence, it's always just like, I told you.
00:19It's the second time I've ever been to New York, so it's kind of lit, especially coming from the UK, Northern Ireland, it's kind of crazy being here.
00:26I love Princess Tiana, I love her class, I love her story, and it reminds me of me.
00:30So to be able to remodernize that song and maybe introduce the song and the storyline to another young black girl is just beautiful to do.
00:37My album of the summer? Eternal Sunshine by Ariana Grande.
00:42I'm an Ariana Grande stan, so pretty much the whole entire album is me.
00:48Million Dollar Baby, Tommy Richland, man. It's an easy choice.
00:52Missy, I Can't Stand the Rain. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Definitely.
00:57My song and video that I put out this year, I Have a Thing, it took me five years to actually bring that to completion,
01:05which I know sounds crazy, but it's a testament to the effort and the energy that I put into it.
01:11It feels very good. I feel very like I've done it. I've done well.
01:15I put my all in this album, and I'm just so content with the fact that I know I did my best.
01:20Man, Usher is literally one of the biggest names in music, period.
01:25It's an honor to just be on the track with him, to produce the track, to write the track, and to be in the studio and to learn from him as well.
01:32It really warms my heart because I don't think I would really have a career if I didn't learn how to dance from music videos.
01:39I was a self-taught dancer. I didn't really go to classes or go to a dance school.
01:43I just watched music videos, and I watched the VMAs.
01:46To kind of be able to bring dance back into music videos is just full circle for me.
01:51It warms my heart when I see dancers, non-dancers, dancers on TikTok recreating my dances.
01:58I'm really grateful.
02:00I feel like I always came from a very DIY background. Ever since I really started in the game,
02:05I feel like I thrive with trying to figure out how to make my vision come to life.
02:09I initially start with a concept, and then I'll just pretty much do whatever it takes to make that happen,
02:14whether it's like we're getting really crafty, and we're getting really rugged, or we have a whole budget.
02:19We're going to make it work.
