I Create My Own Calm And I

I Had The Opportunity, As A Child, To Grow Up In A Community Center Where I Was Exposed To Theater, Music, Art, And Computer Science; Things That I Would Have Never Had The Opportunity To Even Meet Had It Not Been For Those People Taking Time Out Of Their Schedules, Helping Us As Children To Travel All Over The World While Sitting In A Gymnasium. That's What I Did Before I Was A Musician, Before I Was A Recording Artist, I Was A Teacher And A Community Leader.

My Second Mother Is My Maternal Grandmother. Her Name Is Thelma. She Also Gave Me A Very Powerful Medicine; She Made Sure That I Knew My Role As A Young Lady And As Someone With Moral Structures And Principles. She Taught Me That If I Was Going To Be Involved With Anything, Whether It Be Spirituality, Music, Or Some Skill, That I Have To Practice.

It's Just That Little Box In The Middle Of Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Most Of The Time I Go I Don't Even Leave That Apartment. I Have Just Enough: A Little Bed, A Little Kitchen With Two Pots. I Make Some Tea And I Look Out The Window Or Just Lay Down.

All I Want To Do Is Give The World My Heart... Record Label Tryina Make Me Compromise My Art.

I'm A Recovering Undercover Over-lover.
