'Sugarman' is the first single off her debut EP, and was inspired by the song 'Searching for Sugarman' by Sixto Rodriguez. "Lost kids they love the Sugarman, Sugarman is friendly, Sugarman got candy, candy that will take them far far away." "This line is what the song is about. About how we often try to lose ourselves, hoping to find ourselves. And how an escape can quickly become a trap", as she describes it herself.
