1.What inspired you to write “RearView,” and what themes do you explore in the track?
“RearView” came from one of those moments where you’re just sitting with your thoughts, realizing you’ve outgrown something-or someone—that once felt like your whole world. It’s about looking back, processing everything you’ve been through, and deciding it’s finally time to let go. It taps into themes like self-growth, closure, and that bittersweet feeling when a memory hits but doesn’t hurt the same anymore.
2. How do you define your musical style, and what sets you apart from other artists in the industry?
I think my style is more like vibey, late-night-drive kind of feeling. It’s more Indie and R&B although, I want to get more into this rock type of style. What makes me different is that when writing lyrics to my music I don’t care much about others emotions and I don’t gotta be false to sugarcoat it at all. I just try to make it sound beautiful. I also feel like I have a bit of an interesting tone and range when I sing.
3. What challenges have you faced as a young artist, and how have they shaped your music?
Starting young, it was hard not to compare myself to everyone else or feel like I had to sound a certain way to be taken seriously. I definitely went through a phase of questioning if I was “too much” or “not enough.” I often got bullied for the way I sing, many people told me to “ Shut up and not ruin their hearing.” But that definitely made me more comfortable with my voice since I understood that if I want to do something, I’m gonna do it. Now I just make music because it makes me feel mentally stable and happy.
4. Who would you love to collaborate with in the future, and why?
I want people to feel like they’re not alone. Whether you’re healing, overthinking at 2 a.m., or just in your feels for no reason, I want my music to be that soft place to land. Like, “Yeah, this hurts, but you’re gonna be okay—and I’ve been there too.” I also wish people to gain energy when they hear my songs and relax.
5. What message do you hope listeners take away from your music
I would ABSOLUTELY DREAM of collaborating with The Weeknd. I love his work, his ethic and his spectacular performances. I hope that one day, in the future, I could perform on the same stage as him. It would be such an honor.
