I kind of this always knew that I fall
into music and I'd fall into the New
York scene I just always try to keep the
girl alive in me I don't think I've ever
been assimilated in my life I'm a very
eloquent well-spoken educated woman I
never changed my voice for nobody
because I never wanted to because I know
that my culture was special
my name is destiny Nicole and I'm from
New York City but some people may know
me as Princess Nokia but the fly wings
went through the spring and I'm golden
from my toes and and I'm reading palms
and I'm singing song I'm a strong woman
of color I think underneath every strong
woman of color is a feminist
what are they identify with that or not
they are feminist as strong women I'm
from the heart of New York City
these Harlem and the Lower East Side and
I've lived in and out of the Bronx all
of my life
growing up in New York City is like a
movie I'm really talking about a city
that lives and breathes art and culture
I've never quite experienced anywhere
else so my true New York experience is
quite authentic because from the age of
five years old I have just been ripping
and running the city oh the party
initially the party persuade invited was
my best friend she takes care of me
she's the glue that holds me together
really and robot is my other best friend
I've known him since I was 17 years old
he's my voice of reason he reminds me of
why I do this in the first place
destiny could have easily been a heir
hadn't been like you know like ronger
I'm beautiful but into my music but she
doesn't she's aware don't never let a
man belittle you are tell you you're
nothing because you are everything on
the fantasy you reality
completely much like it never gonna
touch it you know one day I'll feel real
tomboy very New York very raver you know
very teenager very low-maintenance
one day I'll feel very rustic and native
and I'll put my hair in braids and I put
feathers in my hair I'm Blackman native
I like really incorporating those
cultures into my style because they're
beautiful cultures they're beautiful
styles when I look at myself I don't see
myself as just a pretty girl I don't see
myself as just a brown girl I see I see
like the blood literally splitting into
all these different lines of people and
heritage
what is good that was great don't it
yeah that was amazing
rise up there that yeah I would love to
he's a really talented writer she's
focused she has an appeal
I mean she's you know she definitely
like walks in her room people notice her
know she radiates I just make music to
fight being an outcast I always felt
like an outcast even the music now I
still feel like an outcast who teddy is
oh that girl is the top that girl's a
tomboy I never came into this looking
for a deal or looking to be someone
popular I came into this because people
like me they're not appreciated I mean
people don't love you unless you're cool
so I just wanted to be the epitome of
not cool and make that cool come on load
cities my fat buddy Marlo said he's a
mouth fat belly no no cities am i fat
belly
hmm I really hope that what girls convey
for my music up from my message or from
my speech um or even for my actions is
that it is okay to be unapologetic as
long as you do if dignity
ladies who know how to shake it fit we
go fit that crazy trap you don't it I'll
take it back I'll click in the Ellis
