kid mom silly talking trying turning uses voices weird
I am completely turning into my mom. Me, trying to be stern, is her. Or when I make silly voices. My mom always uses weird voices if she's talking to a kid or a dog. I'm the same person - completely my mother.
west
I live in a neighborhood where there's a lot of West Indian culture, so it's nice.
experiment gotten rather
I'd rather experiment than follow the same formula. I'm a curious person. It's gotten me into trouble, but I say, 'Why not? Let's try it.'
Out of all the places in the world, Jamaica is my favorite place.
gravitate toward trying wanna
As far as style goes, I gravitate toward anything that is effortlessly chic. I don't wanna look like I'm trying too hard.
best god talk
God is my best friend. I talk to God every day. And no one can tell me how to talk to God - not no imam, not no priest, not no rabbi, no pastor.
anticipate bad critics excited fame jealous media music rumors stuff surprised unpleasant
What surprised me most about fame is how unpleasant it can be. I used to think it was going to be so fun. I got excited about the parties. You don't anticipate friends being jealous of you and critics giving your music bad reviews. Media and rumors - that stuff hurts.
based image public rather
I'd rather make all my secrets public than have an image based on gossip. I'd rather put it out there myself and control it.
cool might people step takes word
I always say, 'Hip-hop takes me everywhere.' It's crazy when I step onstage, and people might not speak much English, but they know every word to your songs. It's kind of freaky, but it's really cool.
gonna
My dream collaboration is with Lauryn Hill. Is that ever gonna happen? Who knows!
sticky
Sticky toffee pudding is my favorite dessert in the U.K.
came issues label record supposed time took
Originally, after 'Tambourine' came out, another record was supposed to come out, but I had issues with my record label at the time, which was Interscope. We couldn't agree on a record, so that took some time. I had to leave them and find a new label.
amazing heard kinds marley obsessed people
I listen to everything - all kinds of stuff. I've been obsessed with the Nas and Damian Marley record, 'Distant Relatives.' I feel like a lot of people haven't heard it, and it's amazing.
club final game good hopefully luck ourselves pressure provincial rest underdogs
We just take each game like it's a provincial final - not a club game - but like a provincial final. We like to not put too much pressure on ourselves and be the underdogs so hopefully that will keep us in good luck for the rest of the week.
