About Me

Chonnie Gold A.K.A. Essence has been deeply rooted in the foothills of Northern California all her existence. Being surrounded by mountains, fresh air, and water have been a big influence on her outlook on life. Sometimes less is more, and pure is beautiful. Being a female in a mainly male dominated industry could scare away the average woman, but this woman here is a strong and courageous woman. Having been through everything she spits, shows her strength. Her main goal in music is to reach people and show them the struggles shes been through and survived. We are strong and we are human, we CAN and WILL SURVIVE.I made this myspace background at
