The Beautiful Liar hitmaker went on to add, “The criticisms I faced when I first entered this genre forced me to propel past the limitations that were put on me. act ii is a result of challenging myself and taking my time to bend and blend genres together to create this body of work,” after which she promised “a few surprises on the album,” which she crafted with her “heart, soul, love and passion.”
