It's only 10 mins and a great interview...but...

Cliffs:

- Russell introduces her as the Queen of UK Grime and cites her as one of the artists who made the genre more visible.

-Leshurr says she used to have a crush on Russell when she was young. Says he was the English version of Eminem. She thought the crush was gone but realized it wasn't when she met him backstage.

- Says she was very active during lockdown and taught herself to properly produce, record and engineer herself.

-Likes being independent because with labels sometimes you have to compromise your creative control and integrity.

- Talks the Atlantic meeting where they offered her $250K to diss Nicki. Her integrity wouldn't allow her to do something like that.

-Bought her mom a house due to the success of the Queen Speech series

- Kanye wanted to sign her. Offered her a house, car and said she could have whatever she wanted. She said it didn't feel right and she didn't want to lose creative control.

- She's not moved by the glitz and glam of the industry

-Her sister and brother in law both passed from cancer 3 years a part. Leshurr's mother is raising their 7 kids and gave up her jobs and everything to raise them.

- Praises her mom's character and talks how her sister's death was a wake up call. She's moving back to Birmingham to fulfill her purpose and help with the kids.

- She's the first black British ambassador for Olay. She's done 3 ads with them.

-Russell jokes about Queen Elizabeth and Lady Leshurr's queen speeches and title of queen.

I wonder why so many people are so willing to believe Nicki is doing behind the scenes stuff to sabatoge or hurt a white music execs investment, but not that labels have been blackballing her or trying to get artists to attack her?

This woman has so many layers, I can see why people like her. Not sure about English Eminem part. How does that work?
