Internet Trolls Be Damned: Rebecca Black Is Here to Reintroduce Herself
"I felt in a lot of ways, like I had ended everything before I'd even wanted anything to begin," she said of feeling like any dream of a career in music had slipped away with one gig. "I wish I could go back and tell her, you did exactly what you were supposed to do. You were exploring, you were trying, you were experimenting."
Which is why this new project feels like the freshest of starts. Calling it a "turning point," Black said it's just one more way "that I feel like I'm really controlling another part of my own narrative.""I really feel so lucky to have had the response that I've been able to have from people and to be so embraced by a community that I've had the utmost respect for and appreciation for my entire life," she said.
She was grateful that last year's Pride "incorporated" the Black Lives Matter movement, she said, "and I want to continue to push that forward and just continue to make not only Pride a month for my journey and my community and the people in my audience who are queer, but also I think it's an extremely vital reminder of the work that needs to be done."
