I Actually Love My Natural Hair When

I Remember Being Really Young And Having This Voice Inside That Told Me To Trust My Gut. And My Gut Has Been Really, Really Strong In My Life. It's Pretty Vocal And It Leads Me.

Women Face A Lot Of Challenges Every Day - We Have To Stand Firm In Our Walk And Our Intentions - But There Are Times When That Weight Feels Too Heavy, Feels Like A Load That I Just Can't Bear That Day. I Try To Work Through That In My Art, Whatever Medium That Might Be. My Live Performance Is Based Around The Color Red, And All The Things That Communicates As A Woman To The World - Fiery, Really Vocal, Present, Almost A Kind Of Stubborn Color - And Redefining It As Being Very Complex. Being Able To Express That Complexity, I'm Getting A Lot Better At That The Older I've Gotten.

You're Just So Excited That You Have This Record Deal Or This Movie Opportunity That You Don't Stand Up For Yourself And Say, This Is What I Want To Do.

There Were Things That Had Been Weighing Heavy On Me For Quite Some Time. And I Went Into This Hole, Trying To Work Through Some Of These Things So That I Could Be A Better Me And Be A Better Mom To Julez And Be A Better Wife And A Better Friend And A Better Sister.

My Parents Only Played Isley Brothers, Marvin Gaye. That's When New Kids Came Out, And We Wanted To Jam That. My Mom Was Like, "put That Thing Off And Put My Damn Record On". So From Old School To '90s To Recent, It's Just Always Been There.
