Rapper Jess B is headling the Milk and Honey event at central Auckland's waterfront Silo Park on Sunday afternoon. The free all-ages concert celebrating International Women's Day has a line-up of female and non-binary acts, food trucks and more. She's this week's guest in our regular Snapchat interview.
My first job was ... delivering the Central Leader community newspaper. When I was about 10, I used to sprint the street that I lived on delivering the papers between SpongeBob episodes. I got so fast I could do one half of the street while the ads were on, then finish the other half after it was done. MONEYYYYY!
It taught me ... fitness is a must for my fast-paced lifestyle, and Mum really encouraged me to save up for things that I wanted, which was one of the reasons I got the paper run. One of the first "big" purchases I made was a $70 scooter from The Warehouse. I still remember the excitement and how stoked I was that I had stayed disciplined and been able to achieve something I really wanted for myself.
The last job I quit was ... at DHL — I worked in the warehouse and the customs department.
The most famous person I've ever met is ... maybe Kehlani? She is an artist whose music spans the contemporary R'n'B/neo-soul/hip-hop genres. I met her for the first time through a friend at her concert in Auckland, and then I met her again when she came back the following year. She is one of my favourite songwriters and on my dream collaboration list.
