Opening up about her music in 2021, Jackson told Willow Smith on Red Table Talk that it was inspired by “heartbreak.”

“It was the deepest I ever loved someone, it was the most intense I’ve felt so far and the most intense betrayal I felt so far and experienced,” she said. “It’s definitely closed me off to that, I’m very careful with who I spend time with now and very guarded and trying to protect myself.”

Smith, 24, also asked Jackson her thoughts on tying the knot. whatever happens, happens

“I’m not against marriage and if I love someone, sure, but right now my main thing is my spirituality and my music,” Jackson said, adding that it’s a “maybe” when it comes to having children in the future.
