In an interview with Elle in May, Dokiy discussed pushing boundaries and motivating her to continue growing as an artist.
“I get rid of people saying you can’t do anything or put restrictions on it. I’ve always wanted to push things a little further,” said the star. “When I was younger, I tried things by pressing a button and then I saw a lot of it. If anyone said, “Birds shouldn’t be scattered with diamonds.”
She continued. “I make birds with diamond studs. I don’t know why. I want to see everything possible. I want to see my dreams and reality come to life. I think that has always been my motto in my entire art.
Regarding the popularity of “Unrest”, Dokii said he was surprised at how it took off, especially in Tiktok.
“I’m always thinking about how it’s appealing and how digital footprints can come out of nowhere,” she explained the sudden rise in the song. “It was a record I made a long time ago and I made that freestyle and completely forgot about it. I wasn’t even thinking about the song.
