Coming up as a female rapper - well, a female artist in general - everything is just so black and white.

Chicago's known for the drill. Keefs, Lil Durks, and whatnot. My music, on the other hand, it has a message to it. I think that's what sets me apart. I think it gets deeper than saying anything on a trap beat. I'm putting stories together, and people are relating to what I am saying.

When I'm rapping, like, a turn up song, I'm thinking about what the people want to hear; this is what they're going to like. When I'm singing, I'm, like, telling my story. I'm not worried if people like it; I'm just trying to be truthful, you know what I'm saying? I'm just talking about something that happened to me.

I think monogamy exists when you're of age. I'm not saying that's good, but in today's time, a female won't honestly get a full commitment until they're at least 25 or 26. That's not good, but that's how it is.

Tink

I don't ever want to lose my rawness or whatever. That makes a person special.

Tink

I'm not the ideal pop star, not what you see on TV. I look like I could be your best friend.

I like country music. Sometimes I'll just type in 'country' on Pandora and listen. I really like the passion in the lyrics.

Tink

I'll be honest with you: before I heard Nicki rapping, I probably wouldn't have thought to rap myself. Just to see a female doing it and being in there with the guys, it was motivation.

Country singers put a lot of soul into their songs, and I enjoy that.
