I have been compared to quite a few artists, but I would like to say that I am who I am as an artist and hopefully that is original.

ON A PERSONAL NOTE: Music is seriously my whole world. I eat, sleep, breathe, and live for music. It is the one being besides GOD that is consistent in my life. Music has been such a source of comfort in every way imaginable. All praises to the GOOD LORD for the gift of music, song, voice, lyrics and just life. Thank you for blessing me with this talent and I promise to always utilize it for good and to always give you the Glory!!!!!!!!!!!

That song is my testimony. Remember when we would stand up in church and testify. "First, giving honor to GOD, Bishop Johnson, the first lady, evangelist Jackson, deacons, missionaries, mothers, saints and friends." LOL I love you Reenz! I really do... And as far away as we are from each other, I always feel so close to you.
That song screams everything I ever wanted to tell the Lord. I'm sure you know it's been a rocky road for me in MANY ways....but, thankfully, I am in a better place and I never would've made it without HIM!

Reading that comment really put a smile on my face. Who would have thought we would connect on a spiritual level. Thank you for being that genuine peace of mind I needed when stress and tears consumed me. You felt my pain and I related to yours, and I think that's what drew us to one another. We should continue to let God be the light to guide us on our journey into womanhood, so that we may become virtous, and be sent virtuous husbands. Focus on God and self and see what blessings will be bestowed upon you....Upon us:) Sushi, next week! Call me for date and time. Love You.
