People are gonna look up to me because I'm young, black, and female.

It's really a sad story, and I liked that. The songs on this album talk about relationships in every aspect.

I've been singing all my life. I've always wanted this. I sang in church, in school plays, and my parents gave me vocal lessons. My parents always said this was destined for me.

I'm a total performer.

It's Friday and I'm ready to swing. Pick up my girls and hit the party scene.

Everything is worth it. The hard work, the times when you're tired, the times where you're a bit sad... In the end, it's all worth it because it really makes me happy. There's nothing better than loving what you do.

Keep working hard and you can get anything that you want. If God gave you the talent, you should go for it. But don't think it's going to be easy. It's hard!
