We need to allow artists to grow and find themselves. I don’t even know if this is my final form yet, but I don’t think there’s any such thing as a final form. There are eras and times, and you just become better. This is the vibe now with Ayra Starr; it might not be the same next year. It might be better, it might be bigger.”
