We knew Fletcher but lately we’ve been seeing Cari more than we ever did, so grateful for that

[@nia8053]

Cari is such a gem. The music she puts out just gets better and better. Her live shows are UNREAL. Criminally underrated. She deserves so much more recognition.

[@AdrianaLeon-xg7hk]

I was glued to the screen listening to her talking, but if Zane could have just stopped cutting her off and interrupting her every 2 seconds, so darn annoying 🙄 Like - we're here to hear from HER, can you just let her freakin' talk? Apart from that - I couldn't say anything that everyone else haven't already - she is an amazing soul, good parts and bad, changes, growth, hopes and regrets - I'm here for all of what makes up this incredible human being we all call Cari Fletcher ❤️‍🔥

[@intrepid_astronaut]

I'm so glad someone said it, he was hella rude at multiple points throughout this interview and it was so frustrating to watch. Like, man has taken a masterclass in manslplaining too.

[@marijapavlovic3681]

You really grew so much and I'm so proud of you for calling yourself out for things and being so honest and vulnerable. I love Fletcher, but I'm in love with Cari from this interview and yesterday's podcast. ❤

[@alanavalverde5726]

It's been 16 days since I started listening to Fletcher and with each passing day I fall more in love with her as an artist and as a person

[@tali88]

Aww Welcome! She’s a brilliant talent.

[@alanavalverde5726]

@talimorr thank you! she really is! i'm already obsessed with "in searching of the antidote"

[@midnightsmalu]

just started listening her songs 2 weeks ago and i cant GET OVER IT she's soooo good!!

[@strangerthings.max.mayfield]

@@midnightsmalu welcome!! we're glad to have you :)

[@brendacastrillon4504]

She is such a talent in storytelling, very clever, very smart. I love her, and I don’t like that people try to censor her freedom of releasing songs

[@AliGASMR]

I am so confused why you’re interrupting her every 5 seconds. Let miss girlll speak.

[@sidrighthere]

She's such an incredible artist. I love how honest and raw she is with her music. Every song she puts out is incredible. I don't understand why she isn't hitting the mainstream yet, but she should because the general public is sleeping on her.

[@tenu3]

I rarely comment but I had to share my thoughts. Great interview. Cari has grown so much since GoMD! Zane did bother me, however, because he interrupted her very frequently and didn’t let her finish her thoughts. I’m irked at interviewers who ask questions but don’t provide space for the artist’s perspective. Not even just strictly with interviews, but in general. LET PEOPLE TALK!!!! PROVIDE PEOPLE SPACE TO EXPLAIN THEIR THOUGHTS WITHOUT DISRESPECTING THEM!!! LEAVE YOUR COMMENTARY AT THE END OF THEIR THOUGHTS!!! Again, great interview. Astounding album, Cari. I love who you are and who you are coming!

[@KoralBelson]

I was thinking the same thing the whole time.

[@camibaldini8465]

I saw her 3 days after this was recorded 😭 it was the most magical experience, ilysm cari, i could listent yo your talking for hours nonstop, so open and wise

[@The-Labbed-Life]

I listened to the whole album for the first time and I loved it. Hearing her talking about the behind the scenes of some songs and her thoughts on life is awesome. She is so great at writing lyrics and her voice is amazing!

[@joannedrury2383]

I’m so invested in Cari’s journey! Loved the deep convo, openness and honesty! Very intelligent woman. I can’t wait to hear the album in 10 minutes in the UK! Having my own little Cari party here.

[@patman9419]

I decided I can love her again after the Shannon podcast. She was so open.

[@isabellajohnson632]

unfortunately she is now part of a cult called the school of modern magic :( it is all over twitter atm where you can find out more about it...

[@judithk5850]

She also replied on X that she is not involved with that cult​@@isabellajohnson632

[@Inspiritix]

lol what? XD@@isabellajohnson632

[@elliotnegru1436]

@@isabellajohnson632 yeah that's been debunked

[@ilariavantagiato3996]

I love seeing her open up like this. Its great to see your progression over the years and your growth and healing. Keeping being you boo. We love you

[@MiaJanjic-ob6wz]

She is such a good soul

[@intrepid_astronaut]

If anyone wants a masterclass in mansplaining, look no further. Despite the endless interruptions by the host, Fletcher crushed this.

[@michelleb2570]

love Fletcher so much! Can’t wait to hear her new album♥️

[@mely3036]

I am so grateful I started listening to her music a few years ago (7 years already tbh). And I am more than excited for april when I will witness her live🥰🥰

[@terrydillon9323]

Thank you, I was running a little scared today, this interview helped me to relax and not be so hard on myself. I wish you best Miss Fletcher. Thank you for your music. Enjoyed this interview .

[@figmentstitute]

Your interviews always deliver! Been a fan of Fletcher since X Factor days and continue to do so. But … thanks for introducing Ryan Beatty. Guess I was destined to discover his music too. 🥰

[@hudsonstockford5481]

I love love Zane’s interviews

[@simodn28]

Amazing interview ❤ looove Fletcher

[@coraline51]

She’s the definition of an artist. I’m obsessed

[@loriannserna2740]

Can't wait for my copy to arrive. @Fletcher xoxo

[@MustacheKat16]

I love Cari Fletcher so much. She is truly one of my favorite humans on the planet and her music is my number one. I am so desperate for this album and listening to her voice is just so soothing. I did just watch her audition on xfactor for this

[@lvmbyl]

This interview was sooooo deep❤️I learned so much from this😍

[@Katyinyourarea]

Such a good interview, can't wait for the album ❤❤❤

[@jess.yonica]

Te amo fletcher!!! I love your depht 🥰 I'm listen this in loop.

[@racheld2405]

Zayn I know you have a big ego and probably won’t take this into consideration if you DID see this comment , but for the LOVE OF GOD, stop INTERRRUPTING her!!! Let the guests talk!! My god

[@charstar13]

What I saw in London?? The girl of my dreams jumping out of them and becoming such an unbelievable reality that gave me goosebumps.. I hope to see you in my home country (Greece) one day..we need your fire and i guarantee you the greek crowds are fucking mad..especially with such big ARTISTS..!!

[@liadbarkan7361]

Zane lowe is sooooo brilliant

[@joarsolbakk7160]

Relatable! Quite turbulent - i see alot of "desire"

[@heyyyloe]

"you love to break hearts -including your own-to tempo" ✅️

[@tracythorpe2662]

I've only just been getting into her music and I'm loving every song I'm hearing ❤

[@sidrighthere]

You should catch her on tour. Her concerts are incredible 🔥

[@Ohkayyyyyy]

Ps Cari is incredible ❤

[@emilymasterson5543]

If you could stop interrupting and let Cari talk that would be great 👌🏻 otherwise this was so good to hear from her

[@BrandenLuisDiaz]

Fletcher 😊

[@MetteGudbjergHansen]

Zane lowe is always amazing

[@theradgemini]

People: tell me you're a fearful avoidant without telling me you're a fearful avoidant Me: So... have you ever listened to Fletcher? 👀 I love how she's willing to talk about pretty much anything even if it's uncomfortable. Respect. And how self aware she is. I'm over a decade older than she is and I'm barely figuring out some of the things she's talked about in her recent interviews or how she acknowledges and gives the mic to parts of herself that need it and shows them grace and indulgence. Integrating her shadow like a boss🤘🏻 I disagree about 24:08 though, imo _Crush_ is. A guy is not gonna relate for various reasons, especially a straight one. This one tells the listener so much more than what the lyrics say out loud if you speak the same language. You've either been there yourself or you haven't and you either feel the intensity of intimacy that deep or you don't. There's really not much of a grey area here. Especially between women. But if you do, this one is incredible in its raw expression and vulnerability... then again she didn't disagree to that statement herself so what do I know 😅 I love that she's able and willing to go there in her entire discography and share it with all of us, as Cari and as Fletcher. Aggressive Mars in sensitive Pisces, sensitive Venus and wild Lilith in aggressive Aries with an overthinking and dual Gemini moon and a Pisces Mercury will do that to you lol. Also, those Scorpio placements, pheeeeeew 🤭 (hello _Maybe I Am_ and the very impulse to release BSH 🔥 haha) So many things she said that are worth commenting on. Also, Pisces are not crazier than most of us, they're just the 12th archetype of the zodiac, a water sign and mutable to boot... technically, they already went through all archetypes and reaching completion of lessons/wisdom while still being hella empathetic with the 11 others, especially the kiddo signs still trying to learn ours. No wonder they often can't deal with humans anymore 👀 (And as a Gemini sun from a mutable big 3, I can definitely relate to the mutable energy... and the slander lol)

[@samkcatladyaks]

I can imagine how terrifying it can be to be a singer and possibly have your voice be impacted by a mysterious illness. So glad you’re okay and dedicated to figuring it out and taking care of you❤️

[@Luci_Boekkooi]

You're magic •••

CARI YOU NEED TO COVER CINAMMON BREAD OR YOUR FAVORITE SONG FROM CALICO

[@Ohkayyyyyy]

It was an awesome “start” to the interview but honestly disappointed you didn’t deep dive into each track like you usually do.

[@ruffsnap]

35:00 - Lmao @ this part. Brazilians are wild with the "come to brazil" spam, but I guess it works at getting some artists to come. I don't even know if half the time people commenting that all over the internet even know the artist of the video they're commenting on, but maybe they just like to feel involved lol

[@baebyrbunny]

❤❤❤👌🏻

[@hegyesvivien3372]

I have to say I'm not a fan of her music ful of clichés and love but I love her so much and listening her soothing voice and interviews

matrix & chrystals... bye byeee... keep on figuring out.

[@AndyGilleand]

Ok the sound effects are annoying

[@perspicaciouscritic]

With all respect to The Dude Zane Lowe, I reckon that cheap bomb effect that he is obsessed with is his metaphorical pacifier.

[@millysmoonnursery2011]

But the cult??

[@isabellajohnson632]

not enough people know about her involvement in the school of modern magic cult :( hopefully she can escape it

[@saywhaaat11]

She's not in it and released a statement.

[@sidrighthere]

she's not in a cult. she released a statement clearing that up.
