I'm old enough to be Obama's grandmom. But I still like seeing good-looking things. Nothing wrong with that.

We stay strong. We stay positive, keep our heads up, love one another, spread love. The Devil can't win when you have God on your side.

I have to pinch myself sometimes. It's unbelievable, but it's not. Because I know that this would not be happening if it hadn't been for Dr. Martin Luther King.

Music is such a joy, just an absolute joy.

I have fun just about everywhere I go.

I'm so blessed that I can still be here to bring the music and have new generations of fans. My Pops would be so proud.

Whenever somebody tells me they want me to stop singing, I'm gone.
