I’m 32 this year so I’m experienced, I know how it is: sometimes you do very easy things and sometimes you can do crazy things that you don’t understand. It’s just to be focused on the hard work. For me, that’s always the No 1 thing.

Being able to make work - if it's on your terms, and it's a good fit with the people who are supporting it - can be a very interesting exercise. When it doesn't work is when an artist just connects with a brand, and they try to take advantage of each other.
