The point is to raise your voice and be heard to God. You really are just celebrating being in the presence of other people that believe the same things you believe.

I just have to do prayers and meditation and affirmations to myself as I go throughout the day, and that's the only way I'm able to make it through some days.

I feel a lot of cities are like, you go and you are trying to do your art, and there are so many other artists there who are so brilliant. And it's kind of like they stomp on the scene, and they are like, "You're not already Picasso? Get the hell out of here!" And Memphis is like, "Well, you'll get there one day!"

I don't even want to call it God. I just want to call it connecting with something that's greater than I am. So that's the biggest thing from Tennessee - the spirit.

Amalgamation is a good word that I like to use - musically and in every way.

As a woman especially I've found a lot of freedom in music.

I'm not religious, but I am spiritual and I am creating my own practice.
