"Music is therapy"
What separates her from the crowded pack of divas is her songwriting and producing abilities. "Music is therapy for me I have kept a music diary since I was ten years old. I basically fill it with dreams, feelings, emotions and experiences and when I go to make a track I formulate the lyrics from this." Her producing influences lay with The Neptunes, Rodney Jerkins, Scott Storch, L.A. Reid and Her vocals bring to mind such artists as Alicia Keys, Ashanti, Christina Aguilera amongst others.
