Lorde on curating 'Mockingjay' soundtrack: 'It has been my baby'

'Royals' songstress Lorde has opened up about curating the soundtrack for the new Hunger Games instalment, 'Mockingjay', and confessed that it's a 'really cool' project. 

Speaking to Billboard recently, the young New Zealand native admitted that it was something that was new territory for her and she was really excited to get stuck into working on it:

"I was really keen to curate it. I had this idea that it would be really cool and I think I know what is the right sound for the project. So they were really into it and it just started happening. It's really been my baby, which is awesome."

Lorde went onto add that for a 17-year-old, she has been given some amazing opportunities and she's really thankful for everything she has been able to do: "It's so rewarding, but it blows my mind that this massive studio has just handed the reigns over to a 17-year-old. I've literally been doing it by myself, contacting every artist, sorting everything out."
