“I feel like if a girl writes a song about heartbreak, very often people start criticizing her for feeling those emotions, and only writing about that. I do just love a heartbreak song,” she said. “Maybe I’ll continue to do that, or maybe I’ll branch out? I just love writing music, and I hope that people continue to listen.”
After a whirlwind year, the star told PEOPLE she’s been making a conscious effort to take sometime off and enjoy slower dayswith her friends.
“I can very easily get burned out and exhausted. And when you’re burnt out as the artist, I find it really hard to be inspired and create work that you really like,” she said. “So, definitely taking time off has been paramount. And my team has been really awesome about giving me breaks when I need it, and letting me rest.
