How did you start getting into music?
Most of my friends make music so I kinda got pushed into doing it. I would get on tracks on some fun shit.
Where did you get your name from? What does the 28 mean in your name?
Just friends calling me Princess, they say I’m spoiled. And 28 is just my day.
How would you best describe your style?
Girls love trap music so, it’s pretty girl trap. it’s really for the bad bittys that like to pop out and aren’t afraid to turn up. It’s the perfect combination of trap meets sexy.
What do you think makes you stand out?
I’m kind of a soft-spoken person so when you hear me talk vs when I rap it’s a complete difference. You hear this sweet voice rapping some hard shit, it’s not what ppl expect. When I’m rapping, that’s when I really speak my mind. And honestly just being a woman in a male-dominated industry I feel like I’m automatically going to stand out. Then you add onto the fact of being a pretty girl so people automatically think my music is about one thing but I’m much more versatile than what people think. I’m not pretending to be something I’m not.
What was your inspiration behind your latest project, “Queen of Hearts”?
Queen of hearts was me basically releasing all my frustrations of past relationships and turning it into a positive. Instead of me getting my heart broken or hurt, I’m the one breaking the hearts or at least in control. And I have control over all hearts that enter my realm.
Who are some of your biggest influences?
Sosa (Chief Keef) musically and artistically Kelis.
What does nostalgia mean to you?
When I think about Nostalgia, I think about music. I think about the songs I love the most and where I was or who I was when I first heard them. Music is very reminiscent and each song I listen to reminds me of different parts of my life. I can listen to an old-ass song today that I heard 5 years ago and it’ll bring me all the way back.
