According to her, she was like a starving artist, which made her restrategize and invest the next three years in self-development and learning how to make money, among other things.
The rapper claims that she doesn’t regret her decision, as her life is so much better now.

“If there was a picture of the phrase “Starving Artist”, it would have been my damn face. One day, I said, ‘Fuck it! I got myself here, I’m gonna get myself out’,” she wrote in part.
