In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Singing Britney Spears alone in my childhood bedroom, hairbrush mic in hand, convinced I was on stage. I’d burn CDs, design fake album covers, and dream up world tours. I didn’t know it yet, but I was already becoming who I am now.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Lady Gaga, Born This Way Special Edition Marina and The Diamonds, Electra Heart (Deluxe Version) Taylor Swift, Red (Taylor’s Version) [+ A Message from Taylor] Electra Heart shaped my love for concept albums. Red taught me the power of vulnerability in songwriting. And Born This Way? It made me feel seen as a queer kid — bold, loud, and proud. These albums helped me become the artist I am today.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “party with me” “party with me” marks a shift — from heartbreak to hedonism. It’s about queer joy, messy nights, and finding freedom on the dancefloor. A glittery, gritty anthem that sounds like Berlin and hits even harder live.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Singing my song “Down Low” on stage and realising I couldn’t hear myself because the crowd was louder than me. That was the moment it hit: people feel this music. It was electric. I’ll never forget it.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Play a sold-out show at Kantine am Berghain. Drop an album that makes people cry and dance in the same breath. And maybe one day hear someone say my music saved their life — that’s the dream.
