I feel like even though I’m doing a lot of things like talking to you, going on live streams. I am beginning to feel that sense of purposeless. Like what am I doing, how can I be creative. I bought an easel and a paint set. I mean I’m terrible. It’s like not going to become a thing. I’m in the process of downloading Logic right now. So I’m like, okay maybe I’ll start making some stuff but I don’t know. The first few days I was kind of into it because I was like, wow, I never stay inside, I never enjoy my own space, this is really interesting, I’m actually enjoying the house that I live in but I never really like lived in it before. I’m always like, I’ve got to go out, I’ve got to do this but now I’m over that. That was four days ago. Now I’m done.”

Miley has been doing a great deal of truly informative live streams with people speaking about this entire amount of time and I simply believe whatever possible method, any place you can utilize your platform to … whether it be make people assist or smile inform people who might not be absolutely up to speed on whatever, that’s truly terrific, and what have the disadvantages been?

Well specifically with the exercise, I absolutely need to deal with my slab. That’s where I need work.”

I went out into my garden this morning, but I haven’t gone out on a walk, I haven’t left my property. It’s been six days and I have these moments where I’ll just be living my life and then suddenly I’ll have this kind of existential thought where I’m like, “Whoa, this is crazy. I’m doing this, but the rest of the world is also doing this. Everybody is inside their house. This is the world now.” It kind of blows my mind. I don’t know. You know what I mean? I feel like I’m really high or something and I’m like, “This is insane.” This is life. What’s interesting as well is I’m fortunate enough that whilst, yes, I am inside, my circumstances have not drastically changed to a point where I’m in an extremely different situation. I don’t have to support a young family. I don’t have to support anybody who’s elderly, and suffering with the virus, and has a low immune system. I’m extremely lucky and fortunate to be in that situation. For me, when I look around my world, yes, it’s changed because I’m indoors and a lot of things have been cancelled. I think it’s the same for a lot of people who are also in my situation. That’s kind of trippy in itself because there’s been this massive change, but it’s also like we’re in this bubble. It’s kind of hard to register exactly how drastic it is. It’s this very strange catch 22.”

On Fearing of Rico Nasty …

“I’ve mainly just been kind of like following and watching in awe really because I think her vibe is so unique. It feels like to me, kind of full on. She really commits to every single word that she says and what was cool was, the song only dropped a few days ago and this was the first piece of quarantine content that was of quite a high level music video that I really got to absorb. It kind of stuck with me for those reasons. I felt like, okay people are still releasing music, people are still really committing to their art, this feels really exciting.”

On Lil Uzi Vert’s New Album and How The Beats Are Ones She ‘d Choose Herself …

“King of the Kids. Yeah, I mean, I’ve been listening to the album. Honestly, this song though, I’m like, “This is genius.” I’ve been waiting for somebody to do something with this Backstreet Boys hook forever and I’m honestly so happy with how this turned out. Not that it really matters what I think, but I’m very satisfied and again it feels so emotional to me. I just love it. I love the sound of his voice. I love the production. Honesty, a lot of the production on this album feels like kind of beats that I would have chosen to go over on my Pop Two Mixtape, obviously the outcome would have been completely different.”

On What She Thinks about the Brand-new Grimes Album …

“She’s in the best place. I’m happy she put that album out before this so that, I don’t know, we could all really digest and just see it for an album, not like any kind of commentary. I don’t know. I just feel like because she is so otherworldly, I feel like people always might interpret what she does as a certain.. But I’m just so happy that we got to just listen to the album as an album and it’s so incredible. I really, really love it.”
