The Main Focus For Me Is Not

There's A Certain Confidence That Comes With Being Sure About The Way The World Works.

Hip-hop And R&b Are Especially Fertile Bases Of Collaboration. It Always Makes Good Records And Good Music.

I Think It's Not Enough For Us To Extend The Hand Of Love. I Think It's Important That That Goes Both Ways. It's Important Also That We Look At Policies We Need To Change As Well.

You Believe In Equality For Women And Men. And That Means That, Not Only Do You Believe In It Kind Of In The Abstract But You Actively Think People Should Seek It When It Comes To The Way You Hire People, The Way You Compensate People, The Way You Treat Women And Men In Professional Settings And School, Whatever The Case, Giving Them Equal Opportunities Without Disadvantaging Them Because Of Their, For The Fact That They're Women. And To Me That's What It Means For Me To Be A Feminist. I Don't Think It's That Controversial.

Anybody Under The Age Of Forty Knows Hip-hop, Gospel And R&b Pretty Well, And It's All A Part Of What We Consider To Be 'black Music.' There Is A Natural Synergy Between The Three.
