'Hide Away' Star Daya Talks Feminism and the Future: Q&A
By notching 26 weeks on the Hot 100 chart, "Hide Away" has achieved surprise ubiquity. Scoring a tune that ever-present is what makes artists stars these days—without "All About That Bass" we'd have no Meghan Trainor, without "Stressed Out," Twenty One Pilots wouldn't be able to sell out Madison Square Garden.
Next up in line to mega-fame is Daya. "Hide Away" is her baby, and it's only the beginning. After dazzling a small room of record execs at Radio Disney's first-ever SXSW showcase, the 17-year-old told us all about songwriting, her future and her feminist awakening.
