I have always just wanted to push things a little bit further,\u201d said the star. \u201cI displayed that a lot when I was younger, pushing buttons and trying things.

I wasn\u2019t even thinking about that song. For it to kind of come back up the way that it did and become this massive hit, I did not expect it. I\u2019m extremely grateful. It\u2019s very cool to show how, even the early stages of my talent, I was onto something, and I didn\u2019t know. \u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.elle.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE RUNDOWN Doechii didn\u2019t attend this evening\u2019s MTV VMAs.
