Icy Saweetie Lyrics How To Be AnAnd Im glad I did, because it really taught me how to be an adult and have a balanced lifestyle.Vincent, Anne-Marie, Kali Uchis, Dan Shay, Swae Lee, Lauv, Old Dominion, Mitski, Sofi Tukker and Jason Isbell. But the 25-year-old artist, born Diamont Harper, admits she wrote the song in a room with just a mattress in it. And the only option was for me to either mope, which I dont like doing, or to be aspirational. After an Instagram clip of Saweetie freestyling the song went viral late last year, she signed to Warner Bros. Records in February, and the studio version of the track has since raked in more than 126 million streams across all platforms. During the rest of her jam-packed 2018, Saweetie released her debut EP, High Maintenance (in partnership with her very own label, ICY); appeared on projects with David Guetta, London On Da Track and Kehlani (who added her own spin to an ICY GRL remix); and even starred in an ad for Rihanna s Fenty Beauty. There was this scene from a really old movie -- Im not even sure what its from -- but the girl who was actually wearing the skirt had it in a satin blue, and she had white fur around it. I requested red with white fur, but then Ariana Grande came out with thank u, next. Im finally getting the hang of what works for what type of event and what colors stand out. What people didnt know is that we had to fix those skirts an hour before we arrived because they were too long. I was already writing poetry, so I transitioned from writing poetry a cappella to writing over beats, and it was way more exciting to me that way. You know when youre a kid and youre like, I want to be this, and then a couple weeks later its something else Me wanting to be an artist never really faded away. I knew that no matter what else I tried to pursue, my passion was always that. Not growing up in a L.A. New York, youre just thinking, How the hell am I going to push through this game But eventually time went on, social media came about, and thats what I started using to put my music out there. I had turned down hospital job offers, and I was like, You keep not wanting to work anywhere else, so you need to go 100 percent for what you want to do. And since you dont have a studio, how else are you going to get your music out Recording in the car and posting the videos online. How have you adjusted to social media fame Im not used to getting weird comments. You have people sending you paragraphs about your work, and its just like Laughs I read my comments. People would tell you not to, but I like interacting with fans. I was like, my dream school is USC, and if I can get a degree from USC, nobody can tell me shit. They have the number one communications school in the country, and thats my major. I was like, if I apply to USC and get in, thats a sign that I need to stay in college and finish it. If I dont get in, Im going to drop out of school and move to L.A. So I applied. If you get denied, you get an envelope, but if you get in, you get a really big welcome package. Every time I checked the mail, there was no package, so my heart would be beating.
