I feel like Harriet Tubman, except I am trying to free people through underground music, to free themselves creatively and inspirationally.

I listen to Prince on my iPad. And I use a Chords & Scales app to warm up before performing.

I'm really thankful to have my own record label. I've always looked up to people like Madonna when she launched Maverick Records. Even Jay Z and Sean "Puffy" Combs, who's a mentor and also gave me a shot when I was an independent artist in Atlanta. He came to my show, and he said, "I just want people to know about you."

It's a big universe. To stay in one tiny place is doing a disservice to yourself.

I believe it's time that women truly owned their superpowers and used their beauty and strength to change the world around them.

I'm attracted to things that scare me, like 'Psycho,' my favorite Hitchcock movie.

I'm not a politician; I'm an artist. So I always feel the need to give the unfiltered truth, (or) what I think is the truth, at least.
