I wanted to go on a project which shows the mixture of Chae rin and CL, not just CL on stage or in a music video.
I try to make things as versatile as possible. Usually, you have to listen to one artist for a certain vibe and another artist to catch the next vibe. I want to make an album that has all of that in there.
I continue to believe, contrary to the given wisdom, that it's more interesting to have an album - or, indeed, an individual song - which has variety rather than homogeneity.
Authors are influenced by everything they've ever read. If you've read widely enough, it helps you create your own mix.
You hope for that with anything, but with a TV show, the writer and the actor being the right mix are more important than the actual writing of the pilot because you hope it's something that can have a long life.
I have found a groove and a combination between originals and mashups that I think works well.
I love couture, but the other side of me loves the street, and I think the mix of these two can create something new.
I don't just want to sing about simplistic things all the time. It's good to have a mix of songs that have a real depth, and that provoke and challenge people, and then songs that are fun and people can enjoy.
