An album is such a personal thing. It’s something I always wanted to do. It’s me doing me, singing as me.

Meaning of the quote

An album is a very personal way for an artist to share their true self with the world. It's something they've always dreamed of doing, a chance to be themselves and sing in their own unique voice. An album allows the artist to express who they really are, without any pretense or masks. It's a deeply personal project that reflects their innermost thoughts and feelings.
