In September,Grifftook the stage at New Yorks Terminal 5 to a sold-out audience on herVertigoworld tour.

Growing up,Ive never been able to compare myself.Its been impossible.

Being Chinese and Jamaican, its not like theres loads of Chinese-Jamaican London girls.

But also I just think theres something so beautiful about sad music you’re able to dance to.

And outside of music, Griff has a fond appreciation for films from Wes Anderson.

I lost my confidence.

I found it again.

I lost it again.

It was like, theres so much confusion and sadness in this album.

Its quite unfortunate that thats whats changed, almost.

But I also think on the other side, Ive got a lot better at producing.

I think Ive written some of my best songs on this.

So as the themes maybe get heavier, I think those songs, hopefully, are better.
