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

My parents just tell me, ‘If you know what you want, you should stay determined and go for it. You can do anything.’

When a fan comes up to you and says I love your music, there’s nothing better than that.

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!

Well, I think that the image is a part of me. I wear the baggy pants, the hats, the whole nine. And you know, I may add a little for the excitement and the intrigue in the videos, but my family has told me that little air of mystery that surrounds me is for real.

I'm involved in some action scenes, so they'll train me for that. I'll be working with my acting coach to prepare for my character.

You have to enjoy your job; you should wake up every day and love what you do... I honestly do... From the bottom of my heart to the depths of my soul. I'm truly happy.
