“Moving in. If you would have told me years ago id end up moving to Tel Aviv and liking it, I would have said youre crazy,” she posted on X.

Later, she shared, “Tel Aviv to New York is the exact same distance as New York to LA. Yall are acting like i moved to Australia lol.”

She continued, “Im 5 hours away and here making my album FINALLY. I found some real camaraderie and some really cool music crew here and its ironically just been easier to create here because Israel’s arts scene is really mature.”

She added, “People arent witholding stems and holding grudges about social issues and its freeing. Everyone in Israel thinks my political opinions ******* suck and think i have trash taste in men but no one is trying to sabotage me for that..This is the most creatively enabled ive felt in years.” She signed off that message with “Baruch Hashem,” which directly translates to “Blessed is the Name.”
