Speaking about her inspiration from Nota, the rapper said to the publication: “Love him or hate him, but he is a genius. He said something very powerful to me: the media tends to do this and that, so why not become the media? I took that very seriously.”
“Being someone who also studied media, I’ve always felt I was downplaying myself. I knew how to do things, but I wasn’t doing it for myself,” said Gigi.
Recently, Gigi took to her Instagram page to share her birthday photos.
