My mom moved up between Leland and Greenville when I was just a little tot.
I did learn that it was the greatest thing in the world to respect yourself. Respect other people.
If I don't love you, baby, grits ain't groceries.
And I tell my audience, you know, give the real stars a round of applause. Because without them I'm nobody. So I learned so much from people like that.
I'm from the Mississippi delta originally.
I was born in a little place called Inverness, MS.
