If the Army helped towards my tuition fees I would then give them four years of my life.
I want to raise my own baby. I don't want my baby crying for some other strange lady, some nanny. I am not down with that.
I don't care how much money you have in the world. It's not about that. It's all about time.
A role model can teach you to love and respect yourself.
I want to live. I didn't have time to die.
I guess I have to prove myself all over again, even if it's to the world. I don't have a problem doing that.
I had an attitude problem when I was a kid. I'm not gonna lie.
The first time we did it [voice-over], I was trying to use my face and my eyes more so and really portray that emotion, and that didn't matter. I realized you have to bring that emotion into the way you sound, and all those different layers have to be in your voice instead of the way you are wrinkling your eyebrows or whatever. I had to learn how to do that.
Be not swept off your feet by the vividness of the impression, but say, Impression, wait for me a little. Let me see what you are and what you represent. Let me try you.

Artist development is something that I've been passionate about from my days at Uptown and Motown Records.
