More than anything, I'm proud to say I'm from Saginaw.
With the EP 'Listen,' I just wanted to bring back a feeling of appreciation for our women in our community. That feeling of love and being vulnerable.
I'm open to anything that pretty much challenges me.
Police brutality is definitely still very alive and active.
The way black people feel, especially, is if you're going to tell a black story, let it come from a real place.
I appreciate Detroit so much.
My dad used to tour playing guitar with New Edition.
Working with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis was crazy.
Watch for me on the big screen.
Every time I come to Detroit, I feel the same energy every time. The people are vibing. They're outgoing and loving. They're solid, and a lot of people aren't like that. They're honest and real from the jump.
When you're not being heard - I can't tell you what to do when you're not being heard. I do think there is a way to move in love and get things done, though.
Babyface is one of the top songwriters in the world ever, and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis have worked with everybody that I grew up listening to.
