Opening up to the magazine about his love for music, the 23-year-old singer shares, “My entire life has changed in the last year. I’m still taking it all in. I’ve found so much out about myself. Mostly how in love with music I still was. The album is a build-up of six years and never being able to express what I wanted to say. I had something to get off my chest.”
