My legacy is not only about legacy, it's about how we as a human family learn to live together within our difference.

I don't care about skin the color, everybody is a human being. Beneath every skin color, you bleed red. That's just the bottom line of the truth.

What we have to learn from the women of Africa is that every day is worth living.

I collaborate with people because their music talk to me as much as mine talk to them.

I'm a story teller. I really know how to tell stories of Africa.

The music of the westerner comes from Africa, whether they like it or not. The majority of the instruments of the music, of the pop music, rock and roll, or R&B, hip hop, whatever it is, their roots trace back to Africa. So if you are black, white, yellow, or red, whatever you do, it doesn't matter, because your DNA is back in Africa.

Music for me has been my breath, my backbone since I was a little kid. Anything that comes to my life, hard time or good time, I always find comfort in music.
