Thanks for having me.
Oh my gosh. I'm so happy. I'm honored to have you.
Oh, my God. I'm excited to be here.
Right. This is our first time meeting in person, but I feel like we've known each other for a long time. It feels like we have.
I've admired you from afar in the same room, for sure. Likewise.
For sure. Likewise. And not in a weird way. For me, borderline. I'll be honest. Mine was. I don't know.
Well, how have you been, queen? How's life? I think good. I've been just like head down. So it's actually nice to like sit and chat and talk. And key. Yeah, and key.
You have to. But I've been good. I know you've been busy. You've been in that stew cooking. we've been i've actually been out of the stew cooking it's been sitting well now we're seeing the fruits of your stew yes it's been in the fridge and we're finally bringing it out exactly exactly it's time yeah it's been it's been fun it's been fun and your new single trust may i dare i say a bop thank you i love it and i told you this before we started rolling but i love a cunty gay pop song
You can never have too many. Right. I think that's been like the year, it's been the year of country gay pop, and I'm determined to bring it into the following year.
I love it. And also, can I also say, I love your Boiler Room sets. Thank you. Can I say? I'm a huge fan of them.
Thank you.
I think it's iconic. Thank you. So I have lots of questions, but first we'll start with the music. So how has your most recent music journey been? Like how does this differ from your earlier work, would you say?
What is the significance of pop mothers in Rebecca's life?
I mean, I've been doing this for a long time. So there's been so many different iterations of like me thinking I know what I'm doing and, you know, either falling on my face or just getting my getting getting information and figuring this whole thing out. And the last like four years have been like a really steady process. I feel like journey of figuring out how to like put what's in my head on a paper, um, with everything that I do. And I definitely think like this last, um, this current album that I'm putting out and, um, I'm in the process of releasing like feels like it couldn't have existed without literally everything that came before. Totally. And it's just exciting to see people really like get it. Yeah.
And respond to it. Absolutely. I know a lot of people see my name and they think one thing or they have expectations and I love to betray them. Right. Exactly. So it's been really, really exciting to see people like see what I've seen for a long time.
Absolutely. And you're, I would say, a gay icon. And I think I would love to know how your experience has been as far as being in the queer community yourself and then also. like having such a strong queer fan base. Like how has that been for you? How has that shown up in your art, in your music?
Yeah. I mean, like same thing. It's been such a long kind of journey of navigating it. And also the landscape of music has changed so much over the past like 13 years. Yeah. Whereas I think even like five years ago, I remember maybe it was a little bit long. I don't know. Whenever it was that I was like figuring out my sexuality, which was a little longer than five years ago. But at the point where I was like starting to make gay stuff, I had a lot of people tell me like, I don't know if you want to make this a part of your brand or like pigeonhole yourself or anything. And now it feels like every artist is dying to be gay. Right. like they wish and pray that they are gay because it's the year of being gay so I don't know I mean for me like I've always just lived my life like as a huge fan of the pop space as a queer person and I owe my life to gay people like even before I knew my world and my piece of being queer like I Gay people were always the people who rooted for me when everyone was like, I don't know about her.
