I'm A Recovering Undercover Over-lover.

What I Work Hard At Doing Is Staying On A Path Of Being Kind And Showing And Proving That I'm A Good Person To Society. That's Hard. The Talent, That's A Gift. I Just Came Here Like That.

I Can Be Erykah The Human Being More Than The Celebrity.

Art Is The Absence Of Fear.

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.

I Don't Read Music Or Anything, So When I Produce, I Go Basically By Ear.
