We don't all have to take the same coordinates to get to the same destination. Being a young African American female artist, I want to open doors for young black girls.
You are only as beautiful as the many beautiful things you do for others without expectation.
I'm a believer that the more I'm giving, the happier I am, and the more beautiful my exterior will be.
One of my core values is to help redefine what it means to be a strong and beautiful woman in the music and fashion worlds and to empower the wonderful things that make us unique.
I have not lost any of my crazy, fearless, raw, soulful, eclectic side and I plan on continuing to tell universal stories in an unforgettable way.
