16+ Halsey Quotes On

All the songs are about my life so naturally there will be some connection because I'm still the same person I've always been. — Halsey

I feel like a lot of people look at pop music with a very formulaic perspective in numbers and patterns, but an outsider would think that the process is very natural.

The thing about being an artist is that you evolve so quickly, you grow, you learn, you change, you find yourself hating work that you made months prior.
