The feel of dramatics flowing through each verse and chorus are truly unique. She states that it just turns out that way since she has no special favorite style because she just loves all genres of music, and her writing reflects it all with a bit of something everyone can relate to. Something everyone can groove to. That's the goal she set out to accomplish with her CD entitled, "U Got Me."
