'This record is a middle finger to the people who urged me to quiet down, a love letter to love and to the Cult for reminding me who I am.' sizzyrocket
. Now on her third album, Rocket's point of view is delivered clearer than ever. She dances in youthful euphoria on booming bop"Never Grow Up," opens herself up to being"fucked over" for love on album highlight"King Cobra," and wraps things up with"Tequila in My Blood" — a beautiful, bratty song that announces,"I'm that bitch."
I had my first girlfriend when I was 15 years old, and since then I've always felt like I was hiding something. I would meet up with her after school in secret and we'd lay around and daydream together about the future, drive around Las Vegas blasting Yellowcard, pull over to make out — you know dumb, young, gay, and in love stuff. My first girlfriend experience was genuine, but I wasn't sure if I was normal for having it and it made me uncomfortable in my own skin.
When 'Bestie' finally came out, uncensored music video and all, I was disappointed by the headlines. Press outlets called it a 'bi-curious anthem,' and my label and family urged me to say I was sexually fluid. I still felt like I wasn't allowed to be my true self, especially as a hyper-feminine artist. I was told I didn't 'look gay,' and no one believed me. Until I met the cult.
