By the time I was a teenager, when I went outside the house, it was about hip-hop all the time. Nothing but hip-hop, block parties.

I'm searching for a real love.

I believe there are certain things that God uses to get us out of a bad situation, and I believe music was one of the things he used for me.

I'm striving toward this acting thing. I'm definitely gonna work hard on that, whatever comes my way, I'm gonna work hard on it.

I know who I am. I am not perfect. I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world. But I'm one of them.

God comes first - if I don't love him, I can't love anybody, and if I can't love me I can't love nobody.

I do consider myself part of black history.
