Cars are my steez.” Driving with music, on the other hand, is not.

It’s a safe space where no one can bother me.
“I want a platinum record!” she says. “That, to me, is a measure of mainstream success. Plus being played on the radio.” Which would be a pretty good reason to finally listen to music in her car.
