There were shouts from the crowd of people in Tijuana gathering behind the barricade:¿Qué estás haciendo? ¡Cuidado! [If I was releasing what I was making] 10 years ago, it wouldn’t be on the radio. I mean, it still isn’t, but it has an audience now that I don’t think it would’ve had before. It’s funny, before Allie X, I thought, No one is gonna understand what I’m saying, but they may like the sounds. But when I put out “Catch,” my first song, I was really surprised at how deep they looked at the song. It was like they were analyzing poetry, trying to fully understand. And it’s been that way with every song I’ve put out. Sometimes they see things I don’t see. I feel so listened to and understood. It’s gratifying.Photo by Joey JamesLet us slide into your DMs.Sign up for theTeen Voguedaily emailWant more fromTeen Vogue?
