What singing means to me, I never did consider myself a singer, I just let people watch me feel music and how it comes through me. I've worked on it and practiced a lot. I mean, music, I dance to it, and singing is just one way of getting it out of me.
Erykah BaduThey usually have a piano in every nursing home, and I always wanted to perform for whoever would listen when I learned something. I grew to understand very early that a lot of these people who are in nursing homes are elderly and don't have a lot of things that give them joy from day to day.
Erykah BaduAll I want to do is give the world my heart... Record label tryina make me compromise my art.
Erykah BaduI believed in myself, and I've always worked very, very hard as an artist, and I am an artist in every sense of the word.
