"If you want your music to be heard...you can just put stuff on the Internet, and people can love it and that's cool," the singer said. "I think the industry is much less scary than people think it is."
"You have to go into it with an idea of who you are and what you want to do, and you have to have an idea of the things that you won't do, and the things that you want to aspire to," she added. "Because if you have clear goals and absolute no's for yourself, then people can figure it out."

The Team singer also said that making music is all about time.
"My advice to young people wanting to make music and to be in this industry is to really spend your time making music," the singer said. "Make so much music you have no friends. Make music."
"Figure out what it is you love, and...because if you're making cool art, then everything else will fall into line. If it's good enough, if it's cool enough, if it has enough emotion in it, people will listen, and people will love it. And there's nothing else," she said.
The 17-year-old singer is currently nominated for four Grammy Awards: Record of the Year and Song of the Year for Royals, Best Pop Solo Performance and Best Pop Vocal Album for Pure Heroine.
