goal you want to see this generation rallytogether towards?Well, I really wanna help people stop judgingat first glance. I want people to feel like it’sokay to talk to other people and make that initialfirst step to break the ice. I want people totravel, meet others, and be able to listen. Whenyou listen to people, that can help out a greatdeal because you start to feel empathy forthem and start to relate to them. I really want“drugs or nodrugs, i’ma be me.but i do be hungry.like, if i’mextremely hungryand i haven’teaten, i will saysome crazy shit.that’s honestlywhere the kanyestatement camefrom. i was hellahungry and iwanted to workwith [kanye] inthe studio.”to be able to bring people into other people’sshoes. That’s my big thing. I want people tofeel like the world understands how you feel,instead of thinking, “She’s a woman, I can’trelate to her,” or, “We’re very different, I can’t relate.”I want everybody to be able to relate andfind ways that are similar. I’m not too far fromyou, and we’re not too far from each other. Wecould talk for days about all the things I reallywant to do. I meet people every day and I learnstuff every day; I see more situations I want todeal with. On the news I see people complainingabout saggy pants and all that, but there’smore serious things to deal with – there’s morelove we could be spreading to further thecommunity and just bring people together ingeneral. I want to see less separation. There’sa lot of unconscious things we do as peoplethat are really separating us from each other. Iwanna bring less separation and more unity.You’ve been putting out a ton of musiconline and a lot of viral videos.

Once thepeople want me to win, that’s when I’ll dropthe album.Are any of these shock-value statements wetalked about drug-induced?I think I’ll keep that a secret. Michael Jacksondidn’t tell anybody what he was doing. WhenMichael Jackson was still alive he wasn’t tellingpeople, “Alright, let’s pop some pills and hitthat moonwalk and then we’re done.” Feel me?But that’s just me. Drugs or no drugs, I’ma beme. But I do be hungry. Like, if I’m extremelyhungry and I haven’t eaten, I will say somecrazy shit. That’s honestly where the Kanyestatement came from. I hadn’t eaten all dayand I was hella hungry and I wanted to workwith [Kanye] in the studio.(laughs) Okay.You need to make sure you eat that food, youknow what I mean? (laughs) I wasn’t high oranything [when I made the Kanye statement].Maybe you should have a personal chef thattravels with you or something.Exactly. I need to step my money up, and that’swhat’s gonna happen real, real soon. If I keepgoing hard, it’s gonna happen.Do you have any other shows or events comingup? Anything else you’d like to say?I have Coachella coming up soon. Shouts outto you and OZONE for showing the support;y’all been holding it down since day one.
