I'm always open to questions asked, and it will be up to me at that moment to decide if I want to answer or not. I've always been the kind of artist that wanted to focus so much more on the music than all these other things. For example, "what does it feel like to be a female in a male dominated industry"?

Let your heart beat for music. Don't be a DJ for the wrong reasons, do it because you have a passion for it.

Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.

I'm still the person who naively thinks if I can imagine it, I can have it.

People are funny. They often don't mean to be, and that's what makes it even more endearing.

In deference to American traditions, my family put our oven to rare use at Thanksgiving during my childhood, with odd roast-turkey experiments involving sticky-rice stuffing or newfangled basting techniques that we read about in magazines.

When you are free from self-doubt, you fail better. You accept criticism and listen.
