7.What sorts of things have you done to improve your song writing since then?
I listen to a lot of Sade, Jill Scott, Chrisette, Zama Jobe, Kem, Alicia key, Julie McKnight, Monique Bingham, Zonke & Lulu Dikana – brilliant song writers. I collect poetry books and steal a few others from my grandfather’s collection. Reading expands the mind and improves ones vocabulary. I love the Thesaurus & appreciate Shakespeare too.
8. What is your musical background? Do you have a musical family or did you just fall into song writing all on your own?
My great grandfather from my grandma’s side of the family is filled with musicians – I’m that kid in the family, doing music “The Odd One” I celebrate that despite the judgement because it’s a God given talent I will not deny nor will I apologise for embracing music, especially after music chose me & other talented musicians to be its ambassadors lol.
9. For our readers who have never heard your music, explain your sound in 5 words.
Sultry, Authentic, Soulful, Charismatic, Universal
10. So, what’s your favorite thing to do when you aren’t writing/singing etc?
Being me I suppose – I ALWAYS HAVE FUN IN MY OWN SKIN
11. What are the five things you can’t live without?
