What’s changed for you in the last year?
Everything has changed for me in the last year. I went from being a bum and working at Amazon to hanging out with models on tour counting money. I’m different now!!

What’s been the biggest lesson you’ve learned about yourself creatively in the last 12 months?
I still work best alone and with my friends. Studios aren’t for me. Although I did meet some producers in LA that I really like. 

What’s been the biggest risk you’ve taken in the last year?
I used to be really scared of performing but I toured for months and months anyways. I guess that was a risk?

What do you hope these next 12 months mean for you and your career?
I want to see my name everywhere. I want to see my face everywhere. That’s all I really care about anymore.

What’s the biggest goal on your bucket list in the next year?
I don’t know. I don’t set goals but I’m tryna go platinum, though. I said I would love to move to Berlin in a few months, so that needs to happen.

Looking back, what was your favorite year ever and why?
2021 and 2022 have been my favorite years so far. I’m doing a lot of cool shit. It’s hard and it’s lonely and it’s a lot but it’s also a lot of fun. 

What’s the biggest secret you’ve kept this year?
I don’t really keep secrets. I tell my friends everything. I guess Misery has been finished forever. I haven’t told anybody that.
