She delved into all of the track\u2019s inspiration and how she worked on them. While talking about her song \u2018Closer\u2019, she shared that it has been sampled directly from the hit song \u2018Beautiful Girls\u2019 by Sean Kingston, which was released in 2007.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>While talking about the song, she revealed that, \u201cI chose the song because it was so good. I worked hard to put my style into it while keeping its originality, and I&#8217;m satisfied with the result\u201d.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>While also talking about the album as a whole, the star shared that it represents how she wants to break away from the tricks she learned in the industry, i.e. how to present herself in front of everyone, as well as how to speak during interviews. \u201cI knew those things, but I didn&#8217;t want to do them anymore. Being too careful made me feel like there was a limit to what I could express. I wanted to be more daring within my boundaries\u201d, she added on.<!-- --> <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Challenges faced as a &#8217;24-year-old veteran\u2019<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>The idol has been active in the industry for almost 10 years now; however, she is only 24 years old. Somi delved into how this sometimes becomes a major challenge for her. She emphasised this by saying that while she has a lot of experience in how the industry works, her lack of experience as a human being sometimes creates hindrances for her. <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>In her ending statement, the idol shared that she wants to create music that represents what she is feeling in her life at the time. She shared, \u201cAfter going through my own confusion and gaining conviction, I want to continue being a singer for a long time. I want to deliver messages that fit the particular time in my life\u201d.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      const ifAllowedOnAllPages = allowedSurvicateSections && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('all');\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed || ifAllowedOnAllPages){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n            var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
