“So I thought, ‘Okay, well, I’ll do it.’

‘So, I started finishing songs. It was just this gradient of how it all came about. But that was definitely a big part of me wanting to get even more involved in this, it was just my dad.

“I’ll hear him humming later,” she said of Ben.

“They’re very supportive of me and they’re definitely a big part of if I ever say, ‘Okay, do I like this song?’ I always ask them to get their opinions. And I value that a lot.”

She said she feels lucky to have a father who has been in the industry for a while.

“I’m very lucky to have been exposed to that from such a young age,” the star said.

On Colors of Love, each song is “a different point of view on love, whether it’s friends, uncertainty or unrequited love,” he adds.
