Certain people were doing certain things, certain people didn’t want to sign contracts, so I knew something was happening, so I just got ahead of the curve.

The Pillowtalk singer also later added, ” I completely selfishly wanted to be the first person to go and make my own record, if I’m being completely honest with you. I was like, ‘I’m going to jump the gun here for the first time.'”
The Dad to 2 year old daughter Khai (with Ex Gigi Hadid) explains the different passion when it comes to music calming, “I’m serious about it and I’m competitive, so I wanted to be the first to go and do my own thing,” the X Factor alum added. “That was the reason—and then there was obviously underlying issues, like within our friendships too.”
