Life is a journey, not a destination; there are no mistakes, just chances we've taken.

I'm passionate about the empowerment and healing of girls and women. Where I do the most work in that regard is in my songwriting.

What is socially irresponsible, once again, is just all my opinion. But there are things that I don't think are cool.

What tried to demolish me, I allowed to polish me.

I cant control everything, and I dont need to

I do experiment with lots of different genres. In making music, I don't think of genre like, "I want to do this, because I'm going use that country music sound; I'm going use that hip-hop sound; I'm going use that acoustic [sound]." It's just making music. So now that I've traveled a lot more since I did Acoustic Soul, I'm sure that different sounds will come into place, because I have been exposed to it and I like it. But it's not so much of a conscience effort. It's mind and spirited. You know, we're humans.

There aint no substitute for the truth, either it is or it isnt. You see the truth it needs no proof, either it is or it isnt. And you know the truth by the way you feel.
