The main thing I like to do is have a mix of the '70s glamour and emulate a lot of ladies I love, like, Diana Ross, Chaka Khan, Donna Summers. I remember thinking that as a young girl, they were so cool and iconic. I missed that!

Sometimes words come easily and sometimes they don't. Most songs take me twenty minutes to write.
Jillian Hervey
I think, more importantly, it's about who is your core team? Who are the people around you that are going to fight for you and make sure that's all protected?
Jillian Hervey
I love writing to my little sister. It's a very nice, easy kind of way I always find inspiration.
Jillian Hervey
It's so important to embrace what you have because if you don't, that can be the root of very self-destructive habits, which I think people waste a lot of energy on.
Jillian Hervey
In general, I think the best thing to do is to connect with other females. I love meeting other female artists and feeling like we're all rooting for each other. I think that's shifted even more.
Jillian Hervey
[My mom] put me in dance class when I was really young just as a thing to do and I loved it. I remember being excited every time I went, no matter how tired I was - it was the one thing that I always liked doing.
Jillian Hervey
Architects see the world a certain way, and cooks see and smell the world a certain way. [Dancing ] is always been my lens, what I use to see.
Jillian Hervey
You need to have honest things in the world. Even if people don't understand it, if it's coming from you, that's already important.
Jillian Hervey
There are probably still people that are competitive with each other, but I don't feel that's necessary. I like when we lift each other up.
Jillian Hervey
[My mom] has a few choice words to calm me down. I think it's beautiful that I sometimes, weirdly, see myself in a photo and I'm like 'Omg, that looks like my mom.' It freaks me out and all that stuff, but it's also just a part of my legacy.
Jillian Hervey
I think having wild, huge hair, is me being my own version of a lioness.
Jillian Hervey
Because of the time we're in, it's so easy to just blend all of it together and it's kind of like you're listening to everything all at once.
Jillian Hervey
I was also just strong and quick - it wasn't hard for me to learn how to dance. I was a natural at it.
Jillian Hervey
I love to feel that I'm not above anyone.
Jillian Hervey
South Africa was something that just kind of hit me.
Jillian Hervey
I love the creation process [of music] of it and then sharing it, so I think that was the shift. I never thought I was going to be on a label in general, I was like 'Oh, I wouldn't do that,' and then we ended up on the same label basically.
Jillian Hervey
I remember just looking at this lioness, she was staring at me, and we just had this weird connection.
Jillian Hervey
It was like I couldn't even begin to tell my mom I was singing. I didn't want anyone to think that she was trying to get me to sing. I wanted to prove to myself I could do it on my own. I really wanted to do a completely different thing.
Jillian Hervey
I had been with a guy for seven years and I was done with that. I wanted to reinvent my whole life and change my hair - I'd had brown, straight extensions forever - and I just wanted to get rid of that, to shed skin, and really just be independent.
Jillian Hervey
I was curious because I hadn't really known anyone to do just that, so I would stop in on his sessions with his rapper friends, and then one day, I told Astro Raw I'm looking to sing. He told me to try it out and then we made 'Treat Me Like Fire' and everything started.
