I've got ADHD, and my whole life, people thought I was some kind of troublemaker because I had all this energy.
The best thing for me is the amount of DMs and people hitting me up every day saying, 'Your music is providing me with answers.' That blows my mind, because that's what Alex Turner and Eminem were for me.
People are scared to have a strong opinion because, with social media, almost everyone lives the life of a celebrity.
I'm a rock and roll kid, but to me, rock and roll isn't just four idiots banging their instruments really loud.
When I went out to America, and someone wanted to sign me and invest in me, that was a big moment because, all my life, people have been trying to tell me to be different to what I was.
From a young age, I was always very transparent, and that's why the kids' mums didn't like me. I would tell you if I didn't like your beans on toast.
Teachers, people, and, to be honest, some of my classmates didn't understand me. I was the person they didn't like because I would always speak my mind and had a lot of energy. I'd be bouncing around all the time, being very opinionated.
I'm quite an emotional person... I ain't just this Northern brat all the time.
The broken heart on my right finger represents me before I figured out who I was, and the full heart on my left is because I'm left-handed, I use that to write my music, and my music helped me obtain my direction in life.
I would listen to artists like My Chemical Romance, Eminem, Busta Rhymes, Blink-182, Paramore... all these bands were so unafraid of being themselves. They talked about their problems and what was going on in their heads. It grabbed and latched on to me, and I felt like I could do that, too.
I grew up on rock and roll like My Chemical Romance, who were actually genuinely talking about and saying things.
I remember talking about a Mozart song during a music class at school, and I said, 'I wouldn't have done it like that.' I didn't like the way the chords moved. And my teacher told me to get out.
I've been in love a couple times, but you never know if it's truly the one until you meet the right person.
I think there are loads of different types of love.
The hardest part of being an artist is discovering what it is you do differently.
We are so distracted and focused on what's next, we can fail to see what is actually in front of us.
I love what Drake does.
When I was 10, I had dyed red hair, and I used to paint my nails - I think my mum secretly loved it.
'My Name Is' by Eminem was a song that changed my life.
I want it to have a message. I want it to empower people to say what they think.
