You know, I’m really excited about this new journey and I’m not gon’ lie to you, I’m really about my bag and about my money. I’m open to whatever’s best for my business. Are you looking to sign to a major in the future, are you open to that? Or do you want to stay indie for now? She’s definitely an idol to me and I think in the future we’ll still do more things. She literally is one of the queens for us. I would love for us to still do something in the future. I think our schedules just got conflicted, I’m busy and she’s busy but I love her. I guess that never happened, that would have been nice. I remember that you mentioned you were in talks with Nicki for a remix. So you know, that’s where ‘Yernin’ came from. Not that I’ve ever been gone from home that long but I’ve really spent a lot of time home this last year and a half so ‘Yernin’ was kinda birthed from that and the vibe of the verses and the lyrics just came from me being in this place where I’m now independent, nobody owns me, I own myself, I can speak for myself, I can do what I want, say what I want and if anybody got a problem with it you can say it to my face, literally (laughs). I think ‘Yernin’ was birthed out of me just getting back in touch with, I hate to say my roots, but my roots. The beat is kinda, it’s half old school because it samples The Gap Band, but then the beat is super hard, it’s a southern Rap record to me. You know, the cadence of the verses are kinda rappy. So really, the energy of ‘Yernin’ came from my home, it came from the south. But I’ve just spent a lot of time home this last year and a half, two years, and it gave me an opportunity to be around my cousins more and be in the south more. I had an uncle who just recently passed, God rest his soul. I’m from Haines City, Florida so I’m real country and I’ve been spending a lot more time at home. Why did you decide to go with that kind of a sound to kick off your new era?Ī couple different things. I love your song ‘Yernin’, such a good song. It’s a lot more work but it feels better in the end.Ībsolutely. I can definitely identify with that because my media outlet is independent, I’ve been independent for like 11 years and a lot of times other corporations have tried to acquire the site but the whole situation of how they work it, it never looked nice. Now I’m shifting into a space where you know, I’m more about my business and so that feels really good. Like writing the songs and coming up with treatments. The creative has always been the part that was, you know, the easiest for me.

It’s just a lot of growth, and I’m shifting into the place in my life now where ownership is a big deal for me.

I’ve gone from being at major labels, from having them own my music to now I’m in a place where I own my music which is amazing.

Man, the journey has been like a series of ups and downs and experiences that you couldn’t pay for but it’s been amazing. You’ve been in the industry for like two decades now but you’re still relatively young. I’m a big fan, been following your journey for so long. We recently had the opportunity to speak with her about her journey so far, what the fans can expect from her new project, why the Nicki Minaj remix to her hot single ‘ Yernin‘ didn’t work out, dealing with hard times and more. It does not have a release date yet but Sevyn says she’s working hard on the album with both her go-to and some new producers. Sevyn recently released ‘ Whatchusay‘, the first single off her forthcoming sophomore album titled Drunken Wordz x Sober Thoughtz, along with a sexy music video. “My relationship with my pen and my writing, every day I get closer and closer to my pen and I’m able to express myself in more ways than the day before.” The Florida native has since left Atlantic and now releasing her music independently through distribution from eOne Music. The real reason why her Atlantic Records debut fell short of expectations is hard to figure, especially because the music was of top quality but with a pen game so strong, it wasn’t going disrupt her peace. 1 and the major label debut album Girl Disrupted released in 2017 did not have the same success. The talented musician’s debut EP Call Me Crazy, But… debuted at number 5 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and spawned the Platinum selling Record, ‘ It Won’t Stop‘ featuring Chris Brown who had also signed her to his CBE label. But let’s not forget, she’s an accomplished artist in her own right as well.
