You grew up in Detroit—how does that inspire your style and your attitude?
I'm a very laid back person and that comes out a lot in my style. Though, honestly people from Detroit can be really flashy. I've learned to appreciate that now more than ever and I'll never be ashamed to rock something because I worked hard to get it. That is Detroit.

Kendrick Lamar, always. Khalid. Sabrina Claudio. MIKNNA. That's just a small few.
What has been the highlight of your career so far?
