I just like to be in the now. And kind of reporting on what it is that I see, feel and that's really reflective of the times that I'm in, we're in and I think with the latest works, it's still evident that we're going through a lot of the same things.

It just felt like all the excitement in the world was in the building [at the Democratic convention].

I'd say if you can, seize the opportunity, to go to a college or university and strengthen what it is that you have.

I've met them [Barack and Michelle Obama] before at fundraisers and things. But to actually meet them in the space where they dwell and make the most important decisions is a totally different experience.

Hip Hop Sisters is going strong. Our signature initiative is #EducateOurMen, whereby we have the pleasure, the enjoyment, as well as having received the blessings from above to send young men to further their education.

I'm usually slow to move in these sorts of things [like primary election process ] because I need to know as much data as I possibly can. And then also, I think you know watching the DNC, several people said it's really not about one person and it's certainly not about once cause or one issue that needs to be tackled. It's the culmination of many thoughts, many ideas, but also power that needs to be combined and the efforts need to be combined.
