I'm learning to accept myself. I'm still in the process of learning to love who I am. And it's been really refreshing and really nice to be able to do that and be okay. I think my fans have brought that out in me.

I started posting covers online and having this crazy determination about what I wanted to do and just went for it. I was like, 'Okay, no one else can create my future for me, and no one can get what I want for me, so I have to go out and get it myself.'

I always wanted the flowiness that hip-hop artists had. I always admired how they rapped so fast, but I never wanted to rap; I wanted to sing the rap.

It's challenging to open for someone: You've got to prep the audience, get them in the mood, and get their attention if they don't know you. You're going to show them what songs you've got. You've got to leave your mark.

I never really wanted to base success on charts and chart positioning. For me, it's really about the shows and seeing them grow.
