Solange Knowles is getting her shine in the spotlight. The fashion “it-girl” graced the cover of Fader Magazine.

Inside, Solange dishes on the change in direction her music has taken since becoming a solo artist.

“[Sol-Angel] was put out almost five years ago.  [In] four years, there’s been so much artistic growth, so much growth just as a woman in [my] 20s, but especially as an artist. You’re exposed to so much more from age 21 to 26, and you sure as hell care a lot less. It’s been a little weird, for me, getting feedback—the last album was so different than this one. I am like, Yeah, I was 20 when I started writing it. Is that supposed to be shocking? If it sounded similar, that would be really strange.”

The article goes on to talk about what life is like riding in the shadow of a famous older sibling.
