I Wanted To Be A Skinny Little

I Feel That If I Can Show My Demise Artistically To The Public, I Can Somehow Cure My Own Legend.

When I Was Younger, I Felt Pressure To Become Someone Else Once I Became Successful. But It's The Intention Of The Work That's Changed. I Have Fans Now. I Have A New Purpose: To Remind Them That I Am One Of Them, That We Are One Another. My Consciousness Has Changed.

For Some People, Fame Kills It And Becomes More Important Than The Music Or The Performance. But For Me Fame Is Like Rocket Fuel. The More My Fans Like What I'm Doing, The More I Want To Give Back To Them. And My Passion Is So Strong I Can't Sleep - I Haven'tslept For Three Days.

More Education For Women. More Jobs For Women. More Equal Opportunities For Women. More Women To Be Taken Seriously. And I Think More Than Anything We Wish To Be Heard And Not To Be Shut Down. I Think This Is A Good Thing To Think About For Any Community; What Is Important Is That Our Voices Be Heard And Not Swallowed In An Abyss Of History.

I Decided To Pursue Music, So I Dropped Out Of School And I Told My Parents I Didn't Want Any Money From Them. I Got Three Jobs And I Just Hit The Ground Running.
