I'm a singer and a writer first. I started to rap by accident, being playful.
Perfectionism kills art. I find that if I criticise myself, it spoils the fun. You can get paralysed by analysis - it takes all the playfulness away.
I love to play with the gadgets that come with film.

I love that I can play around with all types of music.
Being a kid myself, I loved playing and I loved playing with words, and making up things and riddles and songs and not afraid of being silly in public.

I think I would want to make toys. Maybe it's that thing about trying to be a kid forever.

The playful search for beauty.
It's funny the more technological advanced everything gets, the more like acting in your bedroom when you're a kid it is.
