Her very first met gala, I was so excited for her, long overdue really, but this dress did not do my queen justice, it was just a bit underwhelming...

I’m just now finding out that Solange is also a Dj. The definition of multifaceted.

Whew okay so Doll Feelings is out now, it’s obviously my most personal & poetic song…I recorded this track in my home studio while recovering from Covid- a really rough low point for me personally. I hoped that me recording with the irritability & weariness from Covid would amplify my tone in conveying the feeling of being “so over it”. The inspiration for Doll Feelings was really just my experiences with moving through life, especially with PTSD, ADHD, & Persistent Depressive Disorder. This song actually took me the longest to write, because I wanted it to be linear like most of my work, but my experiences aren’t linear. So when I realized that, I was able to complete Doll Feelings. I love that I was able to convey a bit of everything that inspired the track (depressive spoken word, A hypervigilant middle verse, the erratic tone progression, etc..) within a short amount of time. There’s multiple moments where the lyrics are meant to sound like 2 things (caw/call, fit/fix, too many/20). That phonetic ambiguity added another layer of depth to a song I already felt was too deep. I wanted people to feel like they’re inside my head, & I think I executed that well. I hope whoever chooses to listen, enjoys this song🎀🩷����🏽‍♀️
