A lot of people who wanted to audition for Idol have asked me: “What should I do?” or “How to I prepare myself?” I always told them: “Just go in and believe in yourself.”

My experience working with a major label was not all bad, I was blessed to go through that experience, and I know what to do during the next time around.

The best part of being signed by a major label was having the support of a big company behind me and the ability to meet new artists and producers.

I used to have hair so long, my nickname was Pocahontas.

Music has always been a huge part of my life.

The thing that I did not like about being signed to a label was I unable to have control over what I wanted to do.
