The whole process of releasing the album was terrible because we were in two different spaces,” she said. “We are older now and she is [JT] is doing her own thing. She’s on the West Coast, I’m in Miami. I’m doing my own thing. And I feel like naturally, when she does her own thing, it’s beneficial for her. And when I do my own thing, it works for me.

“I feel like I used to be very open. I’ll go on Instagram Live and just talk. I don’t do that anymore. I do it, but it’s not fun anymore. People are just overinvesting,” she explains. “It used to be fun. This is how I come in, play live, and be myself. But now I can say anything and this is so serious or so negative or so bad. That’s the boundary I have to set. I won’t go live and I’ll talk less; as simple as beautiful. I don’t do as many things as I used to.”
