In conversation with .. 3!

then I thought like, I don’t want to be scared about dying
because that’s really my fear. Like, my biggest fear would
be like when I wake up and everybody else is dead and I’m
left alone or something like this. So yeah. I wanted to make
it positive ‘cause you know, it can happen.
own struggles in life. And everybody especially at this time
is living a hard life. And I’m 23 this is probably the worst
time. ‘Cause everybody’s figuring out what they want to
do. So I’m not complaining, but it’s hard. It’s not always a
dream.
And your upcoming album “Have U Seen Her?”, are you
referring to yourself in the title?
Yes! So basically, me and my sister, my twin sister, we
used to see these
dreams when
we disappeared
and we were
running away
to like big cities
and we both saw
the same kind
of dream. And
the only thing I
could remember
is that in the
dream I heard
like “have you
seen them, or
where are they,
where are they?”
And stuff like
that. And I think
that I was like,
“Oh someday I
just want to go
when I’m old I
want to go to like
New York or to
like LA and just
be successful”
‘cause I feel like
nobody else
in my family
is successful.
Everybody
else is just like
trying to figure
out their life.
And then when
I forgot about
a day.”
that dream and
then grew up
and I got this
success and
everything and
then suddenly all the papers are like, “Have you seen her?
Have you seen ALMA?” I was like, maybe this is the dream
finally, the dream that I kept on having like, and then I
knew I was like that should be the title of the album.
Is it really like a dream though, or is there a darkside to
your new fame?
There’s a lot of amazing things about my career. Like I am
so honored and I’m so lucky to do what I do. Like so many
people want to do the same things that I did, but I’m not
gonna lie that it’s, it’s not an easy world. It’s not a dream.
No, it can be a nightmare, but still, everybody has their
Will we be hearing more Charli XCX and Tove Lo? Or
will there be completely new collaborations?
You know, we’re friends and we’re gonna collaborate
forever. So
definitely, yes.

How was it
working with
Miley Cyrus?
You know, it
was amazing.
She’s amazing.
Obviously I’ve
been a fan and
I’m still a fan.
And what the
hell? Obviously
I’m always a fan.
It was an honour
and she’s been
helping me so
much, she’s
always given
good advice. We
met at a party
and then the
next day I went
to the studio and
recorded in it for
like two weeks in
a row. And then
we just wrote
a lot of stuff
and actually for
myself, so there
might be a song
coming up that

Miley for me too.
Nice! From when
you first started
making music to
now, how do you
feel you’ve grown
as an artist? Or even just as a person overall?
When I first released like “Chasing Highs” and all of
those songs, I felt like I didn’t know who I was. I still don’t
know who I am and I’m still a fucking baby, but I’m a bit
more grown, a bit stronger, a bit you know, faster, better
[laughs]. But like now, I feel like people expected me to put
an album out already two years ago, but I didn’t want to do
it ‘cause I was like, I have to figure out my way. I’m like, I
just don’t want to keep on leading my career to some path
that I’m not sure about. But at this moment I feel like I’m
