She is what motivates us to want to give her the world. What motivated me to write the record was my drive to let all women know that they are important, and the presence of them could light up any dark place.”

I’m most proud of the fact that I never gave up on my gift to create music … I want the world to know that my music is a direct reflection of my life and experience.”
