Most of my songs start out as being very aggressive and guitar-driven.

I need that aggressive attitude to play my music and more men have that attitude than women.

I am laughably aggressive, and the rest of the band is very laid back, so we mix well.

I was a kid who got picked on in school, and now the guys beating up those kids were wearing red caps and using my music to fuel that aggression. But if they listen to the lyrics, the aggression is targeted at them.

Aggression is something that is a part of me, and I'm never going to take that out of my game.

When I look back, I can see why people thought I was aggressive. My first single, 'Do It Like A Dude,' resulted in a lot of misconceptions about me. I'm confident - but I'm not arrogant.

The music industry's very laid back while I'm very, very aggressive.

I think I have some anger-management issues, and they end up coming out in these passive-aggressive songs that sound happy.

I think, people look at me, and they say, 'You were very aggressive,' I say, 'Yeah,' you know, and I've made a better life for myself, for my son, so I should reflect that with my music now. I shouldn't still be rhyming like that; that would be me lying.

I'm not a pretty princess, and I'm aware of that, so I like music that is really intense, really bold, and characters that in a way almost have a dark side and are kind of evil because, for me, that's when I feel my strongest and fiercest, when I'm not necessarily the good girl.
