  Speaker 1: and like ambitious people. So I found like a group
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: of friends on Tumblr because I was kind of lame.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: So I found some friends on there, and then like
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: we just like evolved together. We helped each other while
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: we promoted each other. I started doing music, I made
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: like videos on YouTube, and like Justine Sky came about
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: you're not laying. I was a lot of girls think
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: they're when they're not having sex, when they're not drinking,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: when they're not smoking, when they're doing everything that's supposed
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: to be doing. I mean like in school, I was
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: like in the group of cool girls, but my mom
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: never let me do anything. So I was like I
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: always had to go home. What did you want to do?
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I wanted to go to the parties like they had
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: like these day raves in Brooklyn, and like I was
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: never allowed to go. Yeah, it was like in Flatbush
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: or something like that. I don't know. How come you
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: never snuck out like most kids do because my house
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: is really small, so like that's not possible. And I
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: have two dogs, so yeah, they would balk when you
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: try to sneak back in the window. But you did
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: end up getting homeschooled after a while you left high school. Yeah,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: high school was pretty strange, and I started to get
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: more into my music career, so my mom took me
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: out of school and started to get me home school
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: because I'd be in the studio and it'd be like,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and they're really late. Is it true that girls who
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: were sheltered when they were in school when they get out,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: they popped up for a goon more than the average person.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know about other girls, but for me, for me,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, like I'm pretty secure with myself and I
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: like my mom taught me to be very confident and
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I learned that. Like I mean, I had a boyfriend
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: for three years, like since I was like fifteen, so
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: that was like my main priority and like my career.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: So you didn't go buck wild once you finally got
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: out there, Nah, I didn't. I mean, like, my mom's
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: pretty strict too, So why did you guys break up
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: after three years. Was it because of your music career? Um?
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: We just like grew apart, you know, like sometimes when
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: I mean I was doing music and I was getting
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: more and more like pop. He was like the cool
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: guy for so long and then like I was like
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: following in his shadow, and then like I started to
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: become the cool guy, I guess, and then he started
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: to become Lane probably was a thug and then one nah,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: he wasn't. He wasn't a thug. Wasn't what's he a
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: musician or something? Now he was like an internet dude. Okay,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Solberg was an internet dude at once. No, no, no,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: he was. He was like a popular like you know,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: like the popular like people like on the internet, like,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: oh my god, I don't know who that is. Oh example,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: my mom, she's an entertainment attorney. Oh she's an attorney.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: So I grew up Like, why how did you end
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: up getting signed to Atlantic? Nah? How did that end up? At? Um? Well,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I was actually like applying to college and I didn't
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: get into the college I wanted to get into. And
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: why you the Clive Davis program. Oh yeah, nah. So
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I was like applying to college and then I had
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: put out a mixtape when I was like sixteen. It
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: was called sky High, and then I was releasing some
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: more rigual music. And like in the beginning, when I
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: was like fourteen, I went to all the labels and
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: like I showcase for them, did the whole thing like
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: lay Leo Cohen, Craig Calman, which is funny because now
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I'm signed to Atlantic, but they were all like no,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: like she's not ready. And then I just like followed
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: my own path like did. I was in the studio
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: writing my own music, like I was more involved with it.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: And then that's when they started to come for me.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: So I did a Brooklyn girl hook up with Kylie
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: and Kendall West Coast based. Well, I started recording out
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: there more because that's like where a lot of like
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: producers and songwriters are, and in the beginning, I didn't
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: know anyone, and I started to make friends out there,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: like through the Internet, and Kylie wanted your lips, so
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: she probably was drawn to you. They were just they
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: had me and we just like hung out. I was
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: actually pretty nervous because I was just like why am I,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Like why do they want to hang out with me?
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Like I'm lame, Like I'm nobody stop seeing you, Laye.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, just putting that out there, that was
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, now I know I'm not lame, but that
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: was like my mentality. Man, man, I'm just like, I'm
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: not famous or rich or nothing like why would because
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I'm from Brooklyn and that's not like everybody the coolest
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: ybody we really are. But I was also very like insecure,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: like I was confident, but in ain't nobody ever sp
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: I wasn't. But I just felt like I don't really
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: know much about LA or like the LA lifestyle, so
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: like why would they want to hang out with me
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: like that? But I guess I was just I don't know.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: So y'all really cool? Like are you like cool? Cool?
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Like been sitting around house seeing Bruce walked by in
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: the dress before he came out of Caitlin cool. We're
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: not that. I mean, me and Kylie are really cool,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: but um, me and Kendall are closer, grat and like
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: we're closer in the age, so your friends are Willow

  Speaker 1: like me and Willow that was like she was on
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: my first like I guess famous friends like out there, um,

  Speaker 1: because she was really cool one of my friends. And
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: then she was just really dope. I didn't know. I
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: actually didn't know she was that young. And then she
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: like doesn't act like that, so I think she's like
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: thirteen fourteen. Really you be hanging out with Willow now, dude,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: she doesn't act like her age. She's like very like
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: her mind is very like advanced, like a young Drew
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Barrymore back in the day. So does Kylie ask you tips? Like, yo,
• 6:26

• 7:11
  Speaker 1: a week and like we're gonna get back in to

  Speaker 1: finish it out. So you don't think mixtapes are a
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: waste of music for an R and B artist, It's
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: because it's not like you're a rapping but she has
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: an EP out right now. No, I don't think it's

  Speaker 1: a waste of music. I mean, like I like, people
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: always like why don't you put out album? On? You
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: put an album? But like see, I'm sitting here and
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: like you don't even know who I am yet, So
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: why would I want to put out an album and
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: not sell anything and just like be a flop? Like
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: like I like what Nicki Minaj did, Like she did feature,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: she like really built it up and then like when
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: her album dropped, it was so like highly anticipated that

  Speaker 1: you in the studio. That happened a lot. It actually
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen a lot. It happens somewhat though it happens.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: But um, and I'm not even gonna front like I was,
• 9:37

  Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, I need a boyfriend, like
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: after I was in that relationship for so long, but
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: then I kind of just like got over it because
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: I wanted to be more focused on myself and like
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: established myself as an artist before, Like I don't I know,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: let people's reputations gets like they're very important and like
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: they get tainted very fast. So I'm not trying to
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: be that girl in the music industry, especially like an
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: R and B girl, Like I know that guy's always
• 10:00
