âI just collect songs like people pick flowers.
Theyâve got different shades, and they've got
different petals. I look at the tapestry and think
â what goes together? What am I trying to say
with this EP? I was trying to explore my own
humanity. The ego and the darkness and the
psyche, the feeling of lineage and ancestral heritage.â
From Pharrellâs dance troop to devising one of
the yearâs definitive debuts: Triple threat METTE
has trusted the process - and herself - to become
Popâs newest craze. Fresh from immersing us in
the âMETTENARRATIVEâ on her triumphant EP,
she covers our Winter 23 issue, talking fame,
façade, foundations and finding herself.Â
