If a few people decide not to buy my album it's really not going to change my life that much.

Hip-hop and R&B are especially fertile bases of collaboration. It always makes good records and good music.

The struggle for freedom and justice is now.

Love your curves and all your edges All your perfect imperfections

We all must follow a different path to let our light shine, and that's what makes us so unpredictable and unique.

I feel like spirituality definitely comes through in my music, but I don't make any specific efforts to make it that way.

I respect people who are willing to deal with everything that comes with being a politician, but I'm not willing to deal with half the country rooting for you to fail. I'm a singer; I deal with enough. But at least half the country's not trying to destroy me.
