During my journey of being newly single, I began to document through my music examples of our need for control within the modern dating climate. In my previous relationship, I was gifted a dog, and after studying his behavior, I discovered similarities. He’s currently untrained and surviving on his natural instincts, while I, as his owner, am constantly in a position to demand obedience. ‘MUTT’ is a metaphor for our need and desire as human beings to exert some control over our partners. I explored themes from jazz, rock & roll, hip-hop, and R&B, giving myself no parameters for personal expression. This project delves into every part of me: the balance between control and chaos.”
