I grew up in the dance school my mother owned, and I see everything in body shapes, everything visual.

Even in independent music, people push towards radio. It is very political.

I have been doing choreography my whole life, and it's so important to make that marriage between music and the body.

I've always loved literature, and the best books I read were always trilogies.

Major labels limit you, but I also learned my tricks from getting around that.

I thought if I gave people all of my journey in one go, it could be overwhelming and easily forgotten, and I didn't want to make an album where the single was so popular that you overlook the whole record. So three parts felt right - it's a number that can't be divided into.

At a label, you are confined to the team you have, but I did all my solo work myself, and that makes you more agile and able to go into weirder corners.

I always thought music was open to all things.

The same people neglecting and hating are the ones going through issues in their own lives, and they're scared to face that.

There's always going to be a fight between mainstream and underground because the mainstream is a very small bubble, and the underground scene is a very small bubble, and they both see themselves as secret societies.

I've learned that you only become as creative as you possibly can by staying independent.
