Lily Allen is "left to her own devices" when it comes to making music.

On Wednesday's episode of the Dish podcast, the Not Fair singer was asked whether she felt pressured by record label executives to produce a certain kind of music.

"I've got a distribution deal, but it means that I don't really have, like, an A&R team - which is Artist & Repertoire, or the people who help you with, you know, the music and putting it together," she shared. "So, I'm kind of left to my own devices and I haven't got, like, a deadline... No one has any anticipation."

During the podcast, Lily opened up to hosts Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett as well as her lifelong friend Miquita Oliver about writing music in Nashville, Tennessee.

The Fear hitmaker noted that she wasn't working on an album but "making some space for music to reveal itself" and "trying some stuff out to see if it works".

Lily also implied that she was considering veering into the country genre for her next project.

"I do love country and western music. And also I feel like with my writing, it's quite story-telling, like narrative-led music," she said, before joking, "Because I don't feel things, so it's never about emotions."

She added, "Country and western music lends itself quite well."

The British singer has released four albums over the course of her career, mostly recently No Shame in 2018.
