\n

On your recent single \u2018Tequila (To Kill a Single Girl)\u2019, you talk about your relationship with tequila and alcohol \u2013 what led you to quit?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tequila was a problem, there were so many regrets in the morning. There\u2019s nothing worse than apologising for something you don\u2019t remember, and on top of that, really hurting someone. So I was just tired \u2013 I have no problem with telling the truth, but tequila just gave the truth unnecessary thorns. I decided I needed to be in control, so I dropped tequila and I was like: \u201cI can remember everything now, and I can stand by what I said.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, sex positivity is a big part of your music \u2013 on the first two songs of your album you sing about your booty. Why is it so important to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m just writing a love letter to my favourite body part \u2013 my ass \u2013 because it\u2019s been with me through thick and thin and it helps me shake the world, and at the same time, liberate it.<\/p>\n

2024 was a turbulent year, with Donald Trump<\/a> being re-elected as US president and the far right riding a crest across the world. Are you fearful of what the future holds for women\u2019s rights?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s crazy. The last song on my album, \u2018I Was The Biggest Curse\u2019, is actually talking about my sacrifices and having the choice to terminate [my pregnancy]. I terminated four times. For my kids, I\u2019m pushing and making sure that I get a home for them, but still following my dream and not forgetting the dream. So the song is all about the sacrifices that are part of it. I don\u2019t know where I would be if I had the other four \u2013 I don\u2019t know, I\u2019m a fighter, but it would have been a different route. I can\u2019t even imagine when people don\u2019t have choices \u2013 at this point, women are still going to the back room [to get an abortion]. Abortion being legal protects women, because there are so many different reasons why people can\u2019t have children and don\u2019t want children at any point in time.<\/p>\n

The black market will always exist, so this puts women in more danger \u2013 making abortion illegal is like saying: \u201cTell us you hate us without telling us you hate us.\u201d Because you can\u2019t really force us to have kids, you know? We should have a choice. There\u2019s going to be a lot of problems when it comes to women\u2019s fertility. Women will be shunned, they will go to the back rooms, or now have a family, or they can\u2019t have babies \u2013 who is the problem? You. So I don\u2019t know why men are making decisions that are not great for women. You\u2019re literally stepping on your own pussy. It\u2019s worse in America \u2013 dreams, whatever, it\u2019s more like a nightmare when it comes to things like that. Women aren\u2019t protected.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
