I do all the things that singer-songwriters do. I introduce the songs, I have a story to tell about everything all the time - I cannot be on stage and have something on my mind without telling the audience. I'm super emotional and expressive and vulnerable in that moment.

Go on and love yourself, cause everything's gonna be alright.

I'm African American, I'm a lot of other things, a musician and an artist. But that woman part holds the most pain for me. And therefore, obviously, the most lessons.

No matter what anybody says, what matters most is what you think of yourself.

Strength, courage & wisdom...it's been inside of me all along.

Everybody has their own path. I got mine.

I like when a teenager comes and talks to me on the street. I've been through a lot and I have a lot to share.
