In their own words 4
, When you come from where I come from, and everybody doesn’t get those breaks, that luck, you start to question, ‘Why am I successful in life?
To be young, Black and successful - and disruptive - in this industry, there’s a certain navigation to get to the place I need to get to.
When I was younger, I don’t know if I could have handled the onslaught of opinions and being picked apart, and also being conscious of what the other person’s going to go through.
