I think in a lot of situations I had got songs stolen from me, or treated badly.

I think what people get confused about is that they want to label me as this EDM girl, but a lot of this stuff is genre-less.

I think that the music industry is such an interesting place, and there are so many situations that people don't know about.

I want to show every part of me and every color of me. And I think, growing up Albanian, I wanted to bring that to light.

I was very obsessed with my music, and I think that, as a young girl, I really wanted to get into this business, and I don't think my parents really knew how to protect me.

I've had situations where producers would be like, 'Could you meet me? Take the train; don't tell your parents.'
