It's An Important Thing To Remember Where

Black Music Has Increased My Enjoyment Of What I Do. It Has Increased My Range, My Ability To Reach Into Myself And Accept Myself.

One Song Will Launch You, But You Don't Want To Be A One-song Artist

I'm Proud Of My Mentors. Ray Charles Is The Strongest Influence On Me As A Singer

Its A Combination Of Melody And Lyrics, Not One Without The Other. Its A Confluence Of These Different Elements That Makes Something Powerful.

I Was Blown Away By The Control And The Range That I Was Hearing. I'm Listening To Pavarotti And Thinking, What The Hell Have I Been Doing With My Voice All These Years?
