Influences: First and foremost, my MOM because she's so beautiful, funny and sexy! My influences in the industry go way back to when music was REAL MUSIC! BILLY HOLIDAY, for her continuous struggle and drive to fulfill her hearts desire even when the doors were closed to her. Lauren Hill for her most inspiring words of wisdom through song. Eryka Badu for her freedom of expression! And last but not least the woman that I've been most compared to Ms Jill Scott for her floetic approach to this here thang we call music!
