Greatest inspirations or influences?
I grew up with 90’s music so I 'm crazy about retro sounds. Whitney Houston , George Michael, Prince and Michael Jackson
I am also inspired by the young producers who are very successful in our business ( Nick Mira / Taz Taylor / CashMoneyAp)
Challenges for women in music production?
Plenty of men who’ve been in the business for a long time, are not ready to see women strive in this business. We notice they seem skeptical perhaps also in this genre which has been mostly male dominated from the beginning. can say with full confidence that girls in this business are perfectly equal to men! Not only do we work on cool productions, we also have an organized and executive approach to work.
How do you feel Covid-19 is going to change in your industry moving forward?
Clearly the current situation we are experiencing is devastating and very sad. In terms of music, we will all have to find ways to make adjustments and adapt, but this time can certainly be used creatively to record and develop new material.
Favourite websites, social media handles?
I am constantly in search of new sounds - YouTube. Also, I view charts (Billboard/Spotify and Genius). I am constantly on the look out for new stuff.
