MY RUIN!!!!!!!!
6)What is it like to work with Tairrie?
TAIRRIE IS VERY REAL AND HONEST. WE HIT IT OFF AS SOON AS WE MET BECAUSE WE THINK A LOT ALIKE WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC AND THE MUSIC BIZ (WE BOTH HATE FAKES AND TRENDY MARKETED BULLSHIT). WE ARE AN INTENSE TEAM.

11)Are you pleased with how the album turned out or would you change a few things?
I AM VERY PROUD OF THIS RECORD FOR SO MANY REASONS. I LIKE EVERY SONG ON IT. I THINK THE VIBE, SOUNDS AND PERFORMANCES ARE TOP NOTCH.....PLUS, WE HAD A BLAST MAKING IT. THE ARTWORK TURNED OUT RAD AS WELL. THE ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE WOULD BE HAVING YAEL PLAY ON IT.
