One Day, I Just Got Up To

When I Write A Song, I Tap Into The Emotion And The Feeling And Then I Use The Emotion To Write The Words. It's The Opposite When I Act. I Use The Words And Tap Into The Emotion.

I'd Love To Work With Missy Elliott. I'd Love To Work With Bonnie Raitt. I'd Love, Love, Love To Work With Barbra Streisand. I'm Reaching, Because Why Not? You Don't Know What's Going To Happen In This Life.

The Best Gift I Was Ever Given Was The Arts. My Mum Gave Me Those On A Silver Platter. Growing Up, Her And My Grandmother Would Take Me To Ballets, Classical Concerts, Even Smoky Jazz Clubs I Wasn't Supposed To Be In!

I'd Been Told That When You First Put Your Feet On African Ground, You'll Be Hit By A Feeling Of Overwhelming Understanding, Like You've Returned Home And Suddenly Belong. Quite Frankly, I Didn't Feel That.

To Be A Queen Of A Household Is A Powerful Thing.
