I don't think that at all.
No, I don't think that at all.
I just think that sometimes I make the suggestion very early and it allows culture to kind of breathe and make something so beautiful from that naive starting point.
And I think that in my career I've been lucky enough to be a part of or start a conversation early.
So I don't know, I'm trying to think of other examples, even including...
I'm not trying to do anything.
I think that I am totally okay with making work.
And it...
like seeding into culture and it taking its sweet time because I'm so blessed to have a career now.
I mean I'm 28 in a month or two and I've been doing this since I was probably like 22 or 23 and I'm so blessed to still be here and I'm so blessed to still be making music and
what a blessing to be almost 40 and nominated for my first grammy that's centered around music or to have you know to be number one go for you sexual to go to like sorry number three in the uk charts or to win incredible awards at this point in my career and i think it's just because i've taken my time and i think it's because my roots um go like deep and wide and that takes time
you know chill not really I mean when I was very young my stepdad sat me down and he was like because of the way you look that you're gonna have to like work very hard because I wanted to be a ballet dancer which for me as yeah yeah stop interrupting wait I taught my fault she's so cute so cute ballet dancer
Ballet dancer, there weren't really many ballet dancers that were like black or brown or of color.
And so he said to me that if I wanted to do it, I had to work 10 times harder than everybody else.
I have to work 10 times harder or any, I think,
like brown or black artist has to work 10 times harder because we just can't get away with being average.
We have to be amazing, we have to sing really well, we have to look incredible, we have to dance really well, we have to be polite all the time, we have to be on our P's and Q's 24-7 because we're just not given the grace that other people that look differently are, you know, and you do one thing wrong and it's like, wrong, knew it, you know, it's like this energy of like, knew it, 100%.
You know, I knew she was a wrong-in.
So I think that I've always lived my life a bit by that.
But I'm really not complaining.
