She's paying her bills and traveling the world off of her talent and love of music. She's doing great.
Exactly.

And it's kinda difficult to get your songs played on urban radio if you black & make positive music.


Maybe next album she'll be holding double foam styrofoam cups with purple colored foam crawling out of it. That'll get her some spins

She's had a few songs, but PrimeTime may be the only song she'll say she truly contributed to the game with...and I've been a fan of hers when she was dong open mics and being uncredited as a vocalist on Stankonia/Dungeon Family songs. :manny:



Too black..too independent..and too wierd. And her music is to far left. Yoga is the closet she will eve come to center...and that was about yoga...:comeon:
