She took a moment to talk to us about the inspirations behind her music.


Who are your top three musical inspirations and why?
Raye, Billie Eilish and Cleo Sol I feel are my top inspirations because they are bringing back an energy to music that I would love to be a part of. They talk about important topics and inspire women all around the world, women like me :)

Is there a certain film that inspires you and why? 
I'd say one of the most inspirational movies ever made is ‘Soul’, it encompasses human emotions very well and makes me think about the bigger picture. It makes you think about the journey more than the destination :)

What city do you find the most inspiring and why? 
I have to say Valencia, because it’s my home city and where I guess I’ve gotten inspiration to be the way I am today.

Who is the most inspiring person to you and why? 
Chappel Roan is super inspirational to me because she’s been trying to be an artist for so long and she has now become so successful, because she never gave up. And now she gives voice to so many communities, I’m so happy she’s famous and she's exactly what the scene needed right now.

How would you like to inspire people?
I’d love to bring to light so many issues that have affected me as a woman, especially a woman that does not conform to beauty standards. I want to be the face I never saw in the spotlight growing up, give women around the world hope that the world can view them as beautiful and that anyone can be successful.
