Artistry

Influences

Čičak cites Snoh Aalegra, Jhené Aiko, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne and Summer Walker as her musical influences.[2][29]

Musical style and songwriting

Čičak describes her first self-written songs as a mixture of modern R&B and pop sounds.[29] She uses her life experiences as an inspiration in her work but stated that some lyrics are totally a product of her imagination and not autobiographical.[30] In an interview with Glazba.hr she noted how writing a song comes easy to her as she "wrote poems as a child and at one point even a book".[30]
