"One morning I woke up and started crying so hard. I finally just got to my bed from the IV [drip] and I was just like, ‘Good I can actually get to sleep tonight’ because we stayed up all night’ and I finished [the album] at 5pm the day before. "I get in bed and it must have been two hours in before my phone started going off ". "I was so frustrated I kept ignoring the phone.
"I know I’m sick but I’m the only person who can get it done so it was so frustrating so I was angry. I was so angry, I was so overwhelmed that I was sick, it felt crazy. "I started crying really, really hard in my pillow. It was aggressive. I don’t cry loads. If I cry it’s because I’m very angry and I can’t do anything about it, because I’ve run into a dead end. But this time I needed to hear it, I almost wanted to punch somebody."
However, the 24-year-old beauty – who quickly realised no one else could do her job so she "got up, showered and started to work" – insists the agony was "worth it" because she was so pleased with the finished album. In a newly-released video interview called ‘Road To Talk That Talk’ which was recorded earlier this year, she said: "When I got the copies in my hand, it was so worth it. I would never take it back. At times I wished things could have been different and easier but then I didn’t really care when I got the album. The fact it was so difficult, the album feels so much better."
