In a routine of getting relaxers one day I just thought, “Why am I getting a relaxer?” I love my hair as is. The chemicals are unhealthy and cost money, and I could give myself a lot more options as to the way I wear my hair if I were natural. So there it was.
I want them to feel a connection. Music is just another form of human connection.. so it’s important that they are feeling what I’m saying..and how I’m saying it. I want them to feel the vibe, the chord progressions and the harmonies .. I want it to touch them they way they touch me. I dunno..

I feel responsible for trying to bring this feeling I once had back.
