I've always had a bit of an issue with songs coming out and being cemented as one thing for eternity.... I think songs are endless and have the possibility to be continuously broken down, reworked, changed, morphed, mutilated into something completely unrecognizable. That's what I was wanting to do with this record and I'm so happy that all the collaborators on this record were so open to exploring and reinterpreting the songs with me. Thank you to every single artist and producer and mixer who was involved and thank you for turning this around so fucking quickly omg it was the most chaotic few weeks of life. Love you all.”
- She told Zane Lowe of Apple Music about the album, “I really was preparing for this album to be for my fanbase only, and not really break outside the walls of that at all. 'On this record there's going to be no traditional radio songs, because we don't live in that world now,' This fanbase I have built is so hungry for me and my peers and our slightly-left world of pop/dance music-they're hungry for us to succeed. That doesn't mean that we have to do any pandering to any other side of the industry. We just have to do it for them because they've championed us for so long, and that's all we need to light a fire.”
