“The aim is to work with the best-of-the-best whilst out there.”

On How Her Album Will Compare To Her EPs:

“This project is going to be a lot more honest, I feel like I’m catching up on years that I slept on by myself. I wanna scream and shout about it.”

On Her Ghanaian Heritage Influencing Her Material: 

“Sometimes you can strip a Bree Runway song back and realize, ‘Wow that’s mad [African]. Even some of the melodies I create are very influenced by highlife artists I love. For someone who lives on highlife, like before this call I was doing my hair to that, it’s something that needs to be introduced on the debut album.”

On Being Inspired By Michael Jackson:

“Michael Jackson is just too cool in a way that I’m just blown away by the beat that he does his head bop back to. I love performances like that, where the cool factor oozes.”

On Her Approach To Her Career:

“I don’t do things for instant gratification. When I look back at my own work and listen to my own songs, I’m so happy with what I’m doing. I’m my own competition.”
