Transcript

00:00Well, we're here with the gorgeous Kiana Lede, and I mean, what a year, what a week.

00:05I mean, Cut Ties, it's out. How have you been able, I mean, I know you've been talking about

00:10how this has kind of helped you grow out of certain attachment styles.

00:15What have you learned throughout this process of making Cut Ties?

00:19Oh, I learned that I am, it's weird because I think I know I've always been painfully self-aware.

00:30But I think it just got further embedded into me, and it was just, I was reminded

00:36how painfully self-aware I am. And it's kind of a blessing and a curse,

00:40because I'm so hard on myself, I'm like, why don't you, why can't you do better?

00:43Right, right.

00:43Why can you not do better?

00:44You know, so why aren't you changing? Like, I get it, I'm the same, 100%.

00:49Is there a song on the album that you weren't expecting fans to love so much,

00:52but they're really connecting with?

00:54Ooh, maybe Space and Pussy, can I say Pussy? Space and Pussy, yes, thank God I can say it.

01:05Maybe Space and Pussy, just because I didn't understand how many straight

01:08men were going to fuck with the song.

01:10Really?

01:11Yes, I was so confused, but I love it. And people have told me they like it for different reasons,

01:17like some of the guys that I talk to that are straight are like,

01:20I like it because that's what I would want. And then some of the,

01:23and then some of the other guys are like, I get to be in my feelings in that song.

01:27And like, you wouldn't even know, but that's how I'd be feeling.

01:31Music can be interpreted however you interpret it, a stream is a stream.

01:34Exactly.

01:36I love that, I love that. And I mean, moving forward, how do you hope to like,

01:41I don't know, push, are you thinking of going on tour? Do you have one planned out?

01:44Like, what's the next steps right now?

01:45Yeah, so I'm going out with Janae Aiko back out in like a week-ish. And so we're going out,

01:53this will be the third leg. And it's a shorter amount this time, so I'll cry probably even

01:59harder because then I know it's really, really over. But yeah, so we have that and then

02:04just the holidays. And then next year, we'll be planning for a whole nother

02:08rollout of some sort.

02:09You are non-stop, I love it. I mean, congratulations, so well deserved.
