He said:

"As a person, you can get to a point of hating yourself. When you look at things like depression and mental health, it's about fighting what is happening in your head and how you see things, but when someone looks at you, they can't see it."

The musician also shared that the mirror he once bought that later broke inspired his Isibuko album.
