00:00We've been talking twice a week.
00:01You're funny but like when is this coming out?
00:08Hey this is Who, What, Where and I'm Pink Pantheress. Let's get into it.
00:14I don't really believe in astrology because I don't feel like
00:16anything I've heard necessarily applies to me too much. I don't know I don't want to offend anyone
00:20so I'm just gonna stop talking now. But my sign is Aries. My manager knows all of my risings and
00:26everything but I don't know what they are. I'm not gonna lie to you.
00:28I'd say my go-to outfit formula would be to wear like leggings with some long UGG boots
00:34which like go up to my like half or something. I really am a big fan of boots but mostly UGG boots
00:39just because they're so soft and it kind of just feels like you're wearing slippers all the time.
00:42And then on the top half I usually wear like a tan care just something really fitted and nice and
00:46tight on the top. And then maybe like a cute jacket but definitely a handbag you can't forget that.
00:50Don't blame me. I'd say I have a quintessential look but I don't necessarily know what that would be.
00:54I'd say a lot of people describe my look as kind of being ugly or like genuine early 2000s style.
01:01That's what I've read online. I wouldn't categorize it as that. I'd say my style was more like mum core.
01:06Also Africa core which actually I've decided I'm gonna make now which isn't necessarily like
01:10African garments like you'd expect but more so cheetah print animals you'd see in the African
01:15safari where I'm from Kenya. I love going on a safari and a lot of fur stuff, faux fur of course
01:20because we aren't killing animals. The inspiration behind the Heaven Knows artwork. I just really
01:27wanted an animal to be on the cover with me. At first it was going to be like a cheetah kind of
01:31vibe or a leopard. I ended up choosing a dove just because it made more sense with the music that
01:35I had on the album and plus it was a lot easier to get a dove and I wasn't as scared of the dove as
01:40I would have been of like a real life cheetah or lion to be honest with you. I'd say in terms of what
01:45I can tease about my new music I feel like I've definitely genre bended a few times like I love
01:50doing drum and bass obviously in a garage but sometimes I kind of feel like being more pop
01:55vibes and I feel like I've been very inspired by a lot of the pop girlies at the moment especially
02:00after meeting Tyler who's such a queen I love her so much so I feel inspired to make more pop stuff
02:05just because I like how it sounds and I don't know I kind of just want to try something new and a
02:10little bit different. I want to satisfy everybody my old fans and my new fans but it's going to be
02:15somewhere in the middle of my old silent night style it's going to be like pop vibes yeah
02:22I really wanted to be a teacher to be honest with you just because like I really enjoy like
02:26hanging out with kids I just enjoy like the company of kids because they can just be really
02:30funny and I kind of just enjoy how funny they can be without filtering themselves and I still want
02:35to get into that so I don't know how long I'm going to be in music but I do want to teach kids
02:39at some point we'll see hello no I'm very busy right now I don't go online very much at all so
02:47I haven't seen that many trends of my music but I have definitely seen some edits because people
02:52involve me in those edits it'll be me in slow motion being all like sexy and stuff and I don't
02:57necessarily strive to be sexy so seeing those edits kind of gives me a confidence boost I was kind of
03:03trying to make my music go viral at the very beginning because I really wanted to be a singer and I kind of
03:08felt like that was the only way at the time so I kind of hoped it would go viral and I kind of
03:13manifested it to go viral so in a way I kind of knew it would go viral that's how manifestation works
03:22I'm so sorry about the neighbors they love playing rock music at this time of day
03:26nothing I can do about it but hopefully you don't mind it
03:29who am I calling up to give the first preview of my new single I'd say it would be my manager
03:36or my best friend because she's very honest and she wouldn't lie to me if the song was really bad
03:41my routine for the perfect night in would probably be my laptop and YouTube probably the most time that
03:47I spend on myself is on YouTube watching stupid videos that's just my truth and my favorite city in
03:52the world is London of course even though I'm not from there it's just such a nice place to be I just
03:57love how fast it is but also how slow it is I love the food that I love my friends who all live there
04:02if you haven't gone please go London's my favorite city
04:08this is Pink Panther's HQ and only the most important stuff happens here
