Like 81 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: there was this one comment I got tagged in a 82 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: picture from Stagecoach and stage Coach it was like ninete 83 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: degrees outside, right I'm wearing in California. Yeah, I'm wearing 84 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: pretty much sports braw and long biker shorts like not 85 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: you know, they're girls there that were like pasties in 86 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: American flag swimsuit bottoms. And there was someone on the 87 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: comments that was like, her boobs are as fake as 88 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: her music, And there were people like saying that they 89 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: wanted to they should throw dollar bills at me because 90 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: I look like insert in appropriate words the boobs and 91 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: mused the fake boobs and fake music. That's a double 92 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: shot in one sentence, it's actually true because my boobs 93 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: aren't fake and neither is my music. So thank you 94 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: for the I'm convinced that I'm sad that people don't 95 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: have a voice in general. They feel they don't have 96 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: a voice, so they have to use their voice to 97 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: make as much of an impact on Facebook as possible, 98 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: and it turns out that you only get the most 99 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: response when you're negative. It's a culture thing that I'm 100 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: not proud that we have. UM. But all that aside, 101 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: you know, I I like what you do because it's different. 102 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: I think you can do anything different. You're gonna have 103 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: so many detractors anything. When I came to town, it 104 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: was three years before I was even okay to associate 105 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: with because I was so different. But that's okay because 106 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: now it's you know, I've I've kind of carved out 107 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: my place and this is me and yeah, so I 108 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: always wonder because here you are, now you're you're a 109 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: very new artist. It was one of the process of 110 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: when you moved to town, what steps do you take 111 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: in order to be seen? And then like, how does 112 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: a record deal actually happen for someone who moves to 113 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: town because I'm assuming when you moved here you didn't 114 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: have a contact at a record label and you it's like, hey, 115 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: just come and we'll sign you up. I didn't even 116 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: know how to like, I didn't even know what SoundCloud was. 117 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: I didn't know how did anything. Like I came to 118 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: town because I went to Belmonte. I moved here for college, 119 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: and I knew I could sing, and then I was 120 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: really good on stage and I was live. What have 121 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: you been really good on stage? Where did you get 122 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: that affirmation? I've literally been raised on stage, Um, you know, 123 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: beauty pageants, dance competitions, whether it was a Gooseneck trailer 124 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: at the fair to like a big theater, and I 125 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: did theater growing up, and so stage is comfortable for 126 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: me and like I am more shy in a room 127 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: of five people than like a stage with five thousand people. Like, 128 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: that's that's my place. So I knew that, Like, as 129 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: far as I was concerned, no one at school was 130 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: going to beat me in that arena, No pun intended. 131 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: That's what you were naturally good at, and you worked 132 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: harder at it because you saw some of the fruits. Yeah, wow, Okay, 133 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: so you're good. You can sing, you're on stage, but 134 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: you and your intelity studying though, I got a Bachelor 135 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: of Music, so commercial voice, so you came and studied singing. 136 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: I wonder what that class is, Like, is it so 137 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: competitive of a class? You would think so, But I think, 138 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned about, half of my graduating 139 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: class worked and then the other half they came from 140 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: a small pond where they were the biggest fish, and 141 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: they were like, look, all I have to do is 142 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: open my mouth and push air through, and like that's cool, 143 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: That's all I have to do. And You're like, there 144 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: wasn't that here. You And people really get caught up 145 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: in the Belmont bubble, like they get really concerned about 146 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: like acapella and like being really good at theory and 147 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: oral skills, and I'm like, but you don't know who 148 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: you are as an artist, So like you're screwed. Like 149 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: if you don't come up at that and you don't 150 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: kind of get your head out into the real world, 151 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: look at the marketplace and look at who you actually are, 152 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: and like this degree is going to do nothing for you. 153 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: So you're in school and you're studying vocal and you go, okay, 154 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: well want to finish. I'm just gonna stay and sing. 155 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: And are you singing other places while you're in college? 156 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: Are you playing in the little rooms? Um? I wasn't really. 157 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: I worked at a karaoke bar at the time in 158 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: Printer's Alley called Lonnie's.

Then maybe you know 187 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: that will open doors and so you're not playing out 188 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: as an artist sough at this point, you're just making 189 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: money singing, but you're doing it at karaoke bar and 190 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: just pay rent and eat and go to school. Yeah, 191 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: because I knew, like if I got distracted away from 192 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: school for a second, my grandma would kick my ass 193 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: because she's the reason I went to college. Because I 194 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: didn't want to go, she was like, you have to, 195 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: and so yeah, I was like, if I don't focus 196 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: on school, I won't finish.

Thanks if you did for your grandma especially. Yeah. 199 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: So then like almost the my first semester of senior 200 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: year rolls around, my best friend we're writing and she's 201 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: like you should. Are you going to try out for 202 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: Country Showcase? Because Belmont has these four large showcases a 203 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: year that are like in the arena, there's um a country, 204 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: I Rock, urban pop, and a Christian and then the 205 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: winner for me, each goes the best the best, and 206 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: like a bunch of industry people come out and like 207 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: you get all this cool stuff and you have to 208 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: have a manager, and like it's real life. So the 209 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: kids who were in audio degrees have to do all 210 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: the audio and production so on and so forth, and 211 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: I was like, no, I mean the people really get 212 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: anything out of that, and she's like, you will if 213 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: you do it, and I was like, I don't know, 214 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: Like it feels like a waste to me because I 215 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: had watched it for three years and nothing happened with 216 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: any of those people. She's like, just do it. If 217 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: you do it, you're gonna win. And I was like okay. 218 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: So we had a week till the deadline and we 219 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: wrote the two songs. I submitted and got them demoed 220 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: in a week, so the songs had to be original. Yeah, 221 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: So you wrote these two songs, did you feel they 222 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 1: just take a step back when you were in this class? 223 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: Did you feel like you actually vocally were in the 224 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: upper tier of the people in the class? Um. I 225 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: don't know. Vocally, there were people who were much better 226 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: than me, Like technical wise, when I first went to Belmont, 227 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: if you asked me to do one little like riff, 228 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 1: like a melisma, I couldn't do that. Like I've been 229 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: singing Rebu and Shanaia songs my whole life, like classic 230 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: country and that's it. And there were people who you know, 231 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: had R and B or church backgrounds, and they just 232 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: do whatever with their voice. But as far as knowing 233 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: who I was as an artist and applying that to 234 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: a performance and applying that to song choice, I was 235 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: definitely in the top tier. So you go and it's 236 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: you write these songs, and you go and you record 237 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: these songs and you turned them in and you have 238 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: to get accepted the Country Showcase. You have to get accepted. 239 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: They pick a top ten to do live auditions for, 240 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: like a panel of actual industry people who I'm literally 241 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: all friends with now, like they're still in my life. 242 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: And then they picked the four people for the show. 243 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: It's only four people. Yeah, it's only four people in 244 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: the showcase. Wow. Okay. It was so cool because I 245 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: got through and I actually got my first two industry 246 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: dinners from just the ten people live audition from like 247 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: that panel, before the show even happened. My first publishing offer, 248 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: So people came to you from just being in the 249 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: top ten. Yeah, from just the little panel. Laurel Kittleson, 250 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: who works a big machine, was on the panel, and 251 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: then Mark Brown, who works at round Hill, was on 252 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: the panel. And those were my first two publishing meetings. 253 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: So you make the top four, so I make the show. 254 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: They asked me to close the show, so that was 255 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: like a really big deal. And the three other people 256 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: in the show were like, my friends, none of them 257 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: are vocal majors, by the way, they're all music business majors. 258 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: I'm the only vocal major. And then I won, and 259 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: it like blew my mind. Yeah, I went and my 260 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 1: best friends like, my best friend's like, I told you, look, 261 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: you already have like three publishers like asking for meetings 262 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: with you. And at this point, I don't know anything, 263 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: Like I've been in college for four years, but I 264 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: just know how to like sing and harmonize and like 265 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: improvise and stuff like that. I don't know anything about 266 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: music business. I'm like, am I supposed to have like 267 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: a manager? I don't really know. And so I take 268 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: publishing meetings and then you know, in town, if one 269 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: person likes you, everybody likes you, Like that's just how 270 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: it happened. You're until your coolness really cool to everybody. 271 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: Then it's everybody. It doesn't really matter what everybody's actual 272 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: opinion is. If everybody else like them, you've already figured 273 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: the town out. That's crazy. It's a whole bandwagon. So 274 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: so I get a lot of publishing offers and by 275 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 1: the grace of God, end up at Creative Nation.

You can't have a meeting with 303 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: her until then. And it's cool that you trusted her 304 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: this early. Oh yeah, because that's quick. I mean, and listen, 305 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: I know Beth too at this point and Luke Luke's 306 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: been on the podcast. So but that's a lot of 307 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: trust early because you're years old and record labels are 308 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: coming to you going, hey, you want to offer you 309 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: some money and a deal. Yeah. I mean you gotta 310 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: say no to that, yeah, because it's not like it's 311 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: not like you come from this super wealthy family, not 312 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: at all the complete opposite. So but I did. I mean, 313 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: still this day, if she said, hey, let's go jump 314 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: off that cliff, I'd be like, okay, cool, which what 315 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: should I wear to jump? So you finished school. So 316 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: I finished school, I graduate and in the meantime, because 317 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: of that, we got to write and I literally got 318 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: to check off like every dream writer I had ever 319 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: had in my head. And we got a little group 320 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: of five songs and we got photos to go with 321 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: the songs and essentially like an EP and we're like, look, 322 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: Beth is like, look, this is who she is. So 323 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: when you took it to a label, you already had 324 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: a package. So they didn't say we think you're this. 325 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, you already said I'm this, 326 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: I'm this, and if you don't like it, then we 327 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: shouldn't be talking. We can be friends, but you know, 328 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: business no way. And it worked, Thank the Lord, and 329 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: I spent I graduated, I spent the whole next year 330 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: shopping labels pretty much. And then then the year in December, 331 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: I signed a joint deal between Universal Nashville and Interscope 332 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: l A. And so when was that, um six seven 333 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: months ago? Wo yeah crazy? So so next month will 334 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: be no this year, December will be two years. I've 335 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: been graduated for two years. So what about from when 336 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: you graduate school until that year when you finally do decide, like, 337 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: what do you do in that year. So country labels started, 338 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: you know, taking meetings and taking me out to dinner 339 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: and talking this is what we want to do, tell 340 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: us your vision blah blah blah blah blah, and my 341 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: whole life. I just thought of myself as a country artist, 342 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: like that's it. And I always knew I had like 343 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 1: more soul in my voice than than some because like 344 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: when Adele and Amy Winehouse and that kind of vibe 345 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: came on the pop scene back in the day, my 346 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: mom would be like, you need to sing that, like 347 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: you can sing that. But I was just like, I 348 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: see myself as country. And then I got a pop offer, 349 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: Like I got a call from a pop label and 350 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: they wanted to meet me, and I was like what, 351 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: like this, this is blowing my mind, Like that was 352 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 1: not intention. We weren't reaching out to pop labels. And 353 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: then one pop offer comes in, and then another pop 354 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: label wants to meet, and then I'm spending the whole 355 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: year going from here to New York to l A, 356 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: from here to New York LA over and over again. 357 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: And then before I know, I have like five pop offers, 358 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: like just as many pop offers as I do country offers. 359 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: And it's like, what's going on? Like this is blowing 360 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: my mind. My dad's having a hard time, like pop, 361 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: like why are you talking about because you know he 362 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 1: listens to Jamie Johnson and like Hank Sor and that's it. 363 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: And I was like, it's a shame I can't do 364 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: both because why if if these people see me over 365 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: here and these people see me over here, and I 366 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: kind of feel like I'm in the middle, why can't 367 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: I live in both places? Like we're all humans? Does 368 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: there have to be this big bold line down the 369 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: middle of this is listeners over here and this listeners 370 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: over here and they're separated. And my lawyer was like, well, 371 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,719 Speaker 1: maybe you can. We could ask, and I was like, 372 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: I because you know, that's the number one thing in 373 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: life always asked, the worst thing canna happen is no, Well, 374 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: I got so lucky. They came to me. They paired 375 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: up and came to me before I could even ask. 376 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: And that's when the joint venture comes in interscope to 377 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: pop label yes and that country yep. So what does 378 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: that mean though? For your future? Like let me let 379 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: me play Lilife Taxi or me again, let me hear 380 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: this because you have been my tex second, I keep 381 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: you hanging on. I mean this to me sounds like 382 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 1: a country song. Yeah, me too. So what does that 383 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: mean to someone when they go, we think you can 384 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: do it all? Because I understand the the you can 385 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: go a lout like I do. I've been hip hop, 386 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: hop alternative. I'm most comfortable in the country because my 387 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: sensibilities are in country, of course, but I'm all so 388 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: one where if you look at my phone, like I've 389 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: listened to a scorpion from Drake probably the last five 390 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 1: days too. So I don't think anyone actually fits into 391 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: the box that they want us to fit, and I 392 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: think they put us in a box is easier to 393 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: send people to the defined areas. But as someone who's 394 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: crossed genres myself, how do they tell you today that 395 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: you can do both? Like what kind of how do 396 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: you record your music? What do you do? I don't. 397 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't necessarily say it's them coming to me being 398 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: like let's do both. It's kind of like me going 399 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do I'm gonna do both. And it's just 400 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: like like when I go in the room to write 401 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: a song, I don't say, Okay, I'm gonna write today, 402 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to write a country song. Okay, today I'm 403 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: going to write a pop song. I just try to 404 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: write a song that I like and like the groove 405 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: I like, and it feels like me and feels authentic. 406 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: So like, when this album comes together, there's probably gonna 407 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: be like a three or four verse sad ass classic 408 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: country song, and then there's probably gonna be something that 409 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: sounds so pop slash amy Winehouse that you're like, but 410 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: I'm hoping crossing my fingers and my toes and all 411 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: my hair and every other limb I have that can 412 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: cross that it all as a project. You hear it, 413 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 1: and you say, that's Cassie. You can't argue with it. 414 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: Are you okay with making your art your way and 415 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: not being commercially successful if it's your way, Yes, But 416 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: I would say about instead of like a hundred percent 417 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: my way, I'd be willing to do like, okay, let's 418 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, because the means 419 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: to continue on very mature way to think. And I've 420 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: had to learn that the hard way because I was like, 421 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: screw it or nothing, But then you nobody gets by bylf. 422 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: So I'm so mature for your preaching to me. Let 423 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: me do a commercial for one second. This has brought 424 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: to us by LifeLock.

I've kind of 660 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: let my guard down a bit lately, but I tried 661 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: to not have any friends so I could be super objective. 662 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: If you don't have any friends there artist, you can 663 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: always still have an opinion and not worried about hurting 664 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: or really helping. You just want to be honest. But 665 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: I've said before that there are certain people that I've 666 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 1: tried to not befriend, but they're they're really good people. 667 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,280 Speaker 1: So why would you keep someone that's not super awesome 668 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 1: out of your life? And keeps one of those guys 669 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: and he is, So he calls me, he goes, they 670 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: probably come over to the house. And this is way 671 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: before the record and I'm only telling the story. It 672 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: was this this he had a conversation about the song, 673 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: and he goes like, I got cast him a song 674 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: and I was like, I'm the biggest Cassie fan. I said, 675 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: I was a fan of Cassie far I even knew 676 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: what Cassie looked like, like I only heard her voice, 677 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: and I was like, that's different and distinct, and it's 678 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: like this. He was telling me this. He's like, picture this. 679 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: You're driving a coach Hell. He's like describing this song. 680 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: He's like, this is why I want. This is the 681 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 1: picture I wanted to pay. You're driving a Coachella. It's 682 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: all the females of that. And he's like and then 683 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: here it is and he hits the hook of the 684 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: song and it's your voice right there, and that was it. 685 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: And I was like, he didn't have to play the song. 686 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm already into it. Like whatever, he's 687 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: so into it. I walk up into his house. Uh, 688 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 1: I never told this story before.

He's got headphones on, 693 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 1: he's playing drums and he's like, I'm so glad you're here. 694 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: And first we talked about life from and he's like, 695 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: I want to play these songs and so yeah, he 696 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: gives me this. That was the song he gave me 697 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: the longest story about. And then he's like, I think 698 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: Cassie is so awesome for the song, and I was like, yeah, dude, 699 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,879 Speaker 1: I think so yeah, that's what we had a moment 700 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: talking about you.

So we're singing it 704 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: at the concert, like on the big screens and it 705 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 1: looks incredible. And that was so cool because his whole 706 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 1: team was so sweet and so just the kind of 707 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: people you and Keith would want to work with, Like 708 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: they're cool and down to earth and they just want 709 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: to make cool stuff.

That's literally so awesome. 712 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: And I get so many videos of girls that I 713 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: don't know. Like on Instagram they d M me or whatever, 714 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: singing the song like in a jeep with like the 715 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: top down and they're like screaming in the song. Sounds 716 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: unsafe to me. Sounds unsafe to me. You you say 717 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: you did pageants as a kid, did you dance like 718 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: for talent? Well, I don't know, but I mean so 719 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 1: many of my friends that did any sort of stage 720 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: as a kid also learned how to dance. Oh yeah. 721 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: I was in dance six days a week from the time, yeah, 722 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: from the time I was four to the time I 723 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: graduated high school. So what was the goal with that? 724 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: To be better on stage? Okay, so in your mind, 725 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 1: So for me just to relate this and you can 726 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: tell me the same thing. I always did comedy as 727 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: a kid because eventually I want I knew I wanted 728 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: to do a late night talk show, television talk show, 729 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 1: and I wanted to be so good at comedy. That 730 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: was just part of it and it was natural to me. 731 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: Is that why you study dance as part of your 732 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 1: bigger I'm going to be an artist? Yes? And because 733 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: I it was a really great way to get emotion 734 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 1: out as a kid, and I'm a very emotional person. 735 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: I just like to be whatever I feel, and so 736 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: that was like a great way to deal with whatever. 737 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 1: And it was a great exercise. And I'm kind of 738 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,400 Speaker 1: a hyperactive human being. I have to have something to do, 739 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 1: and so that's a great way to keep you busy. 740 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: And yeah, I wanted to be good on stage. Were 741 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: you a good dancer? I think so? Yeah.

You believe putting out in the university. 760 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: Believe that. Um, yeah, as long as you work, if 761 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: you follow it up with work. Yeah, you told me 762 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: you shot guns competitively, yes, So what's that about. That 763 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 1: was about spending time with my grandpa. Mostly um, muzzleloaders. 764 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: It's the one from the Civil War, you know. It was, Oh, 765 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,280 Speaker 1: that's awesome. It was the most obnoxious hunting because there's mudgloading, 766 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,759 Speaker 1: there's to do the ball, the powder. I mean, it 767 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 1: really is like you're having a Civil War re enactment 768 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: to shoot the one stupid ball. So you did competitive 769 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 1: musloader shooting, yes, I did. And then you have to 770 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: throw knives or tomahawks. But I did tom hawks contest, well, 771 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: actually us because it's some of them. They dress up 772 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: and you can dress up like as like colonial or 773 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: as like an Indian, and I being a theater kid, 774 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: was like dope, I get to dress up as a 775 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: character and shoot guns at the same time. Sweet. So 776 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:19,439 Speaker 1: did you win ribbons? Yeah? Lots of medals were good, yes, 777 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: and I was like pretty much the only girl. But 778 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 1: it's because I was steady and I was really graceful 779 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: from dance like holding you know what I'm saying, whereas 780 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: most people like tents up. And plus I got my 781 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: first gun when I was like seven, so yeah, I 782 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: got mine really early too. So a gun was never 783 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: so much of a weapon or like a toy. It 784 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,359 Speaker 1: was always a tool. Oh yeah, for sure. I mean 785 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 1: my grandpa, like I saw guns compatibly for so long, 786 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: and my grandpa even if we go shoot now, he 787 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,000 Speaker 1: acts like it's my first time ever holding a gun. 788 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: Like that's how like sacred and like adult. It's it is, 789 00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Do you ever take Hunter's dead? 790 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 1: You never did. They never made me. My parents didn't. 791 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 1: We had to to get a hunting license. So it's 792 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 1: part of it. But I was awesome because already knew 793 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: all the stuff. And you're like, sweet, I got this. 794 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: It's like yeah, it's like a driver's test, like you 795 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: kind of know how to drive, because again, where I 796 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 1: grew up, there's nothing. It's a it's a small town, 797 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: it's people, and so you can just drive and you're 798 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 1: a kid, you can drive like no one's going to 799 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 1: stop you, because who everybody kind of looks out for 800 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: everybody in a small town. So by the time it 801 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: was driving time, I was comfortable driving. You just have 802 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: to study the book that the written part of the 803 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 1: tote that was hard for me. I think I failed 804 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: my first time because of that part. Were you a 805 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: good student? Yeah, I just talked a lot. Were you different, Yeah, 806 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: especially when it came about seventh grade. Maybe what was 807 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: different about you? Um? Just I noticed, I think starting 808 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: seventhing in eighth grade, how clicky everything was, and how 809 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: I felt like people were following other people and I 810 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,720 Speaker 1: hate that, And I've always hated in all authentic things 811 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: or people and kind of fake. And I just wanted 812 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: to do my own thing because like I danced an 813 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: hour away from home, and like beauty patterns were hours 814 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: away from home, and everyone in a small town is 815 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: kind of doing the same thing. And I like to 816 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: watch fashion shows and read magazines and do kind of that. 817 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: So I think it started with clothes more than anything. 818 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: I was experimenting with making clothes and layering weird clothes, 819 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: and you know, in middle school that's like the roughest 820 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,439 Speaker 1: time for a kid, I think is middle school, and yeah, 821 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 1: that's that's when it started. And then it was kind 822 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 1: of like, okay, well if I look different than these people, 823 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to be doing the same things they do. 824 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: And it just split ways from there.
