Heroes
My mommie, Melva Mitchum, who gave my sister and I everything she could to mold us into being the women we are today!
My daddy, The Honorable Wendell P Williams, although absent and irresponsible most of my young life, for his dedication to the empowerment of our people. From his accomplishments, I learned to accept nothing less than the desires of my heart and to stand for what I belive in, even when I stand alone!
My sister for having courage to be true to herself.
And, my 16 year old son, DJ DAS DUCE for being a good child!Already a professional dj, graphic and fashion designer and writer assures me that you too will be ok and that you are aware of from whom you've come. I admire that you are in control of your destiny and at such a young age. You are a good child, who knows where he is going and exactly how to get there and that is all a mommie could ask for. He is my hero for allowing me to LIVE my dream through rough times and lack, you never complained...you kept it moving even helping out. And last but not least, for being my rock after Hurricane Katrina, exercising more maturity than most men I know.

About me: I'm A SUPERWOMAN, Yes I Am!"
A Risk Taking ...Free Wheeling Deal Maker...Heart Breaker!Thank you for visiting my page.....I hope you enjoy getting to know me...but there are a few things you must know before sending me a message and/or friend request.
I am a publicist FOR HIRE....not for HELP!
I am frequently asked to review music and to post it on my page....sorry NO CAN DO! I DO NOT review music simply because it is too time consuming and it's not really on the pulse of what I do.I make stars and build brands.In this game its 10 percent talent and 90 percent grind. I wanna work with the grinders like myself. I would love to give everyone my opinion of their project, but I would never get any of my work done...nor would my son and I be able to eat. Boosting egos does not pay very well at all...lolol. If you really want to be an artist that receives national recognition...INVEST in yourself...hire a publicist, get a manager, work your project in the streets and the clubs and stop purchasing grills, clothes, cars, and rims! I did not get this far without continually investing in my career...so if you love what you do and you really think you are HOT...hire the professionals who can make sure your dreams come to fruition...everyone has their hand out and it's not a good look! And no one gets an article written on them without putting in work either.Publicity does not fall from trees...it's earned.Get ya buzz up or hire someone to do that for you. I have an entire staff of outstanding professionals and EVERYBODY has to eat! ......You are welcome however...to sign up for my class PPR 101 ...I travel all over the country teaching PR to other aspiring publicists and artists alike.....www.divadendentertainment.com
