It was a challenging process which is why the documentary showed a couple of snippets of me crying in the recording booth. This showed the struggle of not being able to achieve something but at the same time showcase what you overcame; it’s like a juxtaposition. Performing the song, "Almost" on stage right after that scene of me breaking down played is like saying, “Hell, no. I’m going to do this. It took a lot of time and work to get here.”

In Malaysia, it’s such a small pond of rappers and hip-hop artists but once you go international, you start back from zero. I think to myself that I should be very humbled by the experience and the opportunities that are given. Some days I think, I can’t do this anymore but I’ve come so far and I want to see what happens next.

I do have a stylist and his name is Idan and I’ve worked with him the longest. He in fact told me that he couldn’t style me for the show because he was busy with his online food business now but he suddenly came to me and said, “Look what I got for you." This (the EP launch outfit) is from a designer named Syamil Fazwan and it knocked it off of the park. It's a one-piece velvet suit and look at the tassels on the pants and the leather boots! I think having an understanding relationship with a stylist is super important especially on building my own style.

In terms of the grandiose performance, I would say "Dream Girls" because there’s so much element of conflict, drama and love and that’s everything that my life consists of. And it’s a musical!

It is easier for me because I stand out as a female rapper, that’s already half the battle won. From a very young age, I was taught to shift the perspective because if you don’t have a good attitude towards what you’re doing then I don’t think success would be along the journey for someone. You must be able to adapt.

I think people who have great ideas are called controversial because they break down boundaries.
