We had the good fortune of connecting with Hailey Bop and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Hailey, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
I Know To Keep Going Because I Know That I haven’t reached my full potential yet , so if I were to stop following my dreams it can cause me to get stuck in my tracks and I don’t want that to happen . It has been times in my music career I felt stuck with just dealing with real life situations and still trying to manage to be an artist but with music being my passion , I always regain my motivation and keeping the right people around me to encourage me to be the best version of myself.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am most proud of my mental and spiritual growth . I have seen so much over the past few years , which made me want to change for the better . I learned to use my voice more and being more open to trying new things and not just sticking to the normal . I used to keep myself inside of a shell when I was always filled with so much energy inside and just didn’t know how to express it . I feel my voice can be used to touch others and teach the youth that you can be yourself and still be cool. I got to this point by following God and tapping in with the spiritual world , this wasn’t always easy but nothing in life is you will always run into problems in life but it’s how you deal with it and I deal with my problems by praying . Over the years of living I’ve learned to not dwell on things from the past because it can hold me back from the blessings that are soon to come or that are right in front of me . I want the world to know that I have a big heart and I am a walking testimony.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
If you want to go catch a drink I would recommend going to “The Island” If you are looking for good seafood I would recommend checking out “Mad Crab”
If you are looking for a fun outing go check out “The Arch” this is an attraction that the city has . You can actually ride the arch and it will take you way up in the sky so you can see the whole city .
