Erykah BaduMy fourth mother, my godmother, she passed away a couple years ago - her name was Gwen. She was the theater director over at the gym where I grew up and learned about all those awesome things I told you about already.

They were all her tactics, not anything learned or given to me through a theory, but rather by her natural abilities.
