I never use someone just because they are great musicians. I work with people who have the same kind of feeling towards the music that I do, and the subject that I'm speaking of at that time.

I want to look at myself in the mirror at the end of my life and say I've done my share and I'm proud of what I've done.

If everybody can be happy with what they achieve with their life, this world would be a better place.

It is proven that when women are educated, the ability of the country goes up immediately.

Dream big, as long as you do it in sync with your truth, with your heart, your brain. And you are not hurting anybody, go ahead and do it.

I am a storyteller with my music. And my story, nobody gonna tell it for me.

I want everybody to be happy because, if you're happy, you are more open to other people. Don't let misery bring you down.
