"I know what I sound well on and what I like writing," she said. "I've been writing for years, and I now have a repertoire of songs that I've written throughout the years; it's just a question of finding the appropriate producers and other writers to help me create my style." †We wish Naya Rivera all the best with her next album.
"I'm not comfortable discussing it because I want to honor her," the Michigan native starts when asked whether he has any regrets about directing "IDFWU." The track is included on his Dark Sky Paradise album. "She's had such an influence on people and accomplished so much in her life and work that it was infuriating to have that [song] connected with her," he explains.
Naya, may you rest in peace??? Jhene Aiko (@JheneAiko) Chilombo 14 July 2020 For what it's worth, although Naya Rivera fans may be furious with Big Sean over âIDFWU,â the actress seemed to be OK with the song during her 2018 performance on the television program Lip Sync Battle.
Following Rivera's passing, several of her Glee co-stars and producers paid tribute to the actress who originated the character of Santana Lopez on television.
âNaya was not a series regular at the time she was cast on Glee. She had just a few words in the pilot. However, it took just a few episodes for us to recognize that we had stumbled across one of the most brilliant, remarkable actors we would ever have the pleasure of working with,â wrote Glee showrunners Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan. âShe has an uncanny ability to shift effortlessly between frightening toughness and profound vulnerability. She was a pleasure to write for, a pleasure to direct, and a pleasure to be around.â
