I had a weird accent. Dutch people speak American English, and my parents were Jamaican, with their own broken English.
I just knew that I wanted world domination. I knew that with anything I do, I want to be the greatest. That entails being great everywhere. Not just in America - everywhere.
I always support anyone who I think is dope, female-wise. Whereas a lot of females are scared of other females.
When it's my show, I know that everybody is there to see me - but I like a challenge, and I like the fact that at festivals, not everybody is there to see me, but I have the chance to convert people.
My goal is just to be real and bring people good music and let them enjoy the music that I bring.
My Britishness waters my music down!
I want to keep the same kinda vibe where we've got the dance element and hip-hop. I'm going to be singing a lot more, and I want to write more heartfelt songs.
I was born in Birmingham, and then I moved to Rotterdam when I was about five/six and then came back when I was 14.
Stefflon Don songs go off in the club... well, basically, anywhere people hear them.
When you're doing so much, there's so much on your mind. The bigger the artist you become, you have to think a lot more. I'm trying not to overthink everything!
I remember having a conversation with Drake just before I signed. He said, 'Make sure that, whatever you do, your opponent is scared of you.' That really stuck with me.
I wouldn't change my childhood for anything. The Dutch are really nice people. The schools were great.
I don't really like to share deep issues or anything like that. I have a problem with that. I don't really like to talk about some stuff.
Alan Carr - I love him.
I started writing songs at eight. Heartbreak songs - don't ask me why. It was the stuff I used to hear, so I imitated it. I used to write songs about guys cheating. Could you imagine!
You can't tell someone how to write their own book.
What's funny is that all the artists I've collaborated with, I get this feeling that they want me to win. They're always asking my opinion, always giving me advice.
Growing up, I was definitely surrounded by music all the time. My parents used to always play music; my dad used to have reggae on. I remember walking around with a cassette recorder, and I used to just record the songs I would hear on the radio so I could play it back when I feel like.
I've never felt competitive; I'm not a competitive person. In general, I try not to be!
Lisa 'Left-Eye' Lopes in TLC, she stood out a lot with her rap. It was so different, the way she would flow.
