We aren't just some record to put out before the new Pussycat Dolls CD!
I was performing with the Pussycat Dolls when I was approached by a company who wanted to do a workout series. I hired the creator of the Dolls, and as a team we went in and rehearsed and put together this series.
I used to perform with the Pussycat Dolls before Nicole Scherzinger, before they were a musical group.
Yes, I have left the Pussycat Dolls.
I'm a huge fan of the Pussycat Dolls, I always have been.
I feel less and less like that every year, and I guess maybe even more so with every new record that I put out. I just think, as the years go by, it's harder and harder to really find a reason to be annoyed that you made something that people want to continuously talk about. Certainly there are contexts in which the record can be discussed which will get me on the defensive and make me want to put some kind of calibration or some kind of context on what the record means in relation to my career as a whole.
A lot of people that buy vinyl today don’t realise that they’re listening to CD masters on vinyl and that’s because the record companies have figured out that people want vinyl, And they're only making CD masters in digital, so all the new products that come out on vinyl are actually CDs on vinyl, which is really nothing but a fashion statement.
After the Pussycat Dolls, I was burnt out. So when I left them in 2010, I did take a second to say, 'Right, I've done this for seven years. Who the hell am I as an individual? Do I still want to do this?'
Dancing is another way to communicate. That's what separates The Pussycat Dolls from other groups.
When I was in the Pussycat Dolls, I did study jazz and pop, but Latin and ballroom were not at all in my world.
Sometimes my brain goes on CD shuffle. You know, you put a bunch of CD's on and hit play and random things come out.
There's a part of me that always has the little bit of the sassy sexiness in her. That's probably why I ended up with The Pussycat Dolls in the first place.
The new artist is meeting the general public before they meet the record company. They're able to put the material on YouTube and have a million views before they even meet an executive at a record company, and get the deal based on that.
All I had was a CD with beats. I wrote to every beat on that CD, and when I got off punishment, I put out my first mixtape. I passed it out all around school. I started going to the studio. I started doing shows.
I don't know if I ever feel totally great about a record when I put it out. With every record that I put out, someone has literally got to come pry it from me because when I listen to my own music, I just hear flaws in it.
It just amazed me that so many people came to see my show even to a place that I've never been to. I was independent for a long time and I knew every person who I sold my CD to. But now with a major record contract, you don't get to meet every person who buys your CD. It's a new feeling, and it's very inspiring that they have been waiting for me to come to their town and sing.
But to put out a greatest hits on one CD was totally impossible, I just couldn't do it. The best compromise was to put out two CDs - Early Days - which is what it is - and Latter Days.
