I teach metaphysics and pastor a church.

You see, I was born in the slums, that was before the ghetto. The ghetto was kind of refined; the slums was right there on the ground.

There are people much less fortunate than us, and I don't mean people hungry sleeping in the streets either

I have the background singers of Ray Charles, the background singers of Smokey Robinson, and the background singers of Barry White and I built a choir around that.

People have known me for so long, I'm just Della to them.

Touching people is very rewarding to me.
