![]() I try to describe my emotions with imagery. And I kind of just try to let my brain take me down these visual wormholes. And yeah, I do talk about a lot of personal shit but I think in the writing of my lyrics, I tend to take a kind of surrealistic, abstract approach to writing. The whole boundaries thing is kind of a hard question to answer because when I’m making my music, for the most part I try to block out anything in my head regarding what other people are gonna think of it, or– if something is too personal– I try to not let my brain go there. I’m always curious when I talk to music artists, what’s it like having to put your life into these songs, and do you feel like you have boundaries in how you are as a music artist and also making sure you protect yourself as a real human person? I love how vibrant, how fun they are but listening to the lyrics, you also cover so much emotional ground. ![]() I wanted to talk to you about your songs. I don’t know, I have a history of putting a lot of pressure on myself emotionally with work, and I’m trying not to do that as much. Like at this point I’m trying to just accept everything as it comes, wholeheartedly and give everything my all and not put too much pressure on myself to be okay at every moment, or happy all the time. Say I was on tour, I’d be like “fuck I need to be writing a bunch of songs right now, ugh I’m wasting all this time or whatever”. Because I think for a lot of my life and a lot earlier in my career, I would put pressure on myself to be doing something. ![]() And I’m trying to take everything as it comes and not put too much pressure on myself, and within that, I kind of find balance. Yeah, I think that’s definitely an active pursuit. How do you find balance in your life? Or what do you hope to do to find balance, if that’s something you’re still working on? I love Disneyland, I’m not a Disney adult, though. I don’t think there’s any other place in the world where you can scream and laugh at the top of your lungs and it’s totally fine. I got to ride a roller coaster… it’s crazy actually. That was fun, I haven’t been there in like ten years. What’s been a memorable experience this year so far? And it could easily be really cheesy but they do it so well, I don’t know how they do it. I love Ted Lasso, it’s like an instant heartwarm every time. And eating food and binge watching Ted Lasso on TV. Recently I have been going on tour and in the time off, I’ve been writing a bunch of new songs, and that’s pretty much all I’ve been doing. LADYGUNN had the pleasure of catching up with Wolf, where we talked about everything from the joys of screaming and crying on roller coasters to growing pains and gains in various degrees. Wolf often punctuates her responses to my questions with long beats as she thinks through a question and what she wants to say, before ultimately responding with intent fully thought out. It shouldn’t be surprising, then, that the inimitable Wolf, who officially started her music career with a bang in 2019 and hasn’t let up since, is also someone who carefully articulates exactly what she wants. These songs don’t just sound like your typical pop confetti– they’ve got heart and soul, in varying degrees of neon color. Rife with rich wordplay, Wolf’s songs are known as much for her powerhouse vocals as they are for their riveting and “can’t-recreate-it” spin on the possibilities of pop. At least from the outside, Remi Wolf’s career so far has seemed like one long psychedelic dream.
