You've Come A Long Way Baby...

You've Come A Long Way Baby...


Remember the Days of No Limit Album Covers? Numerous "NL Soldiers " could be found inside the album jackets of artists like  Master P, Silkk the Shocker and 504 Boys' with "Coming Soon" plastered beneath these artists' cover art. I was one of those hopeful dreamers awaiting the day my solo project would be released. However, this small town girl from Lafayette, LA would end up only singing choruses and bars on other people's projects.

While waiting in the wings for my big chance, I decided to take measures into my own hands. After a two year stint on No Limit, I declared I was more than a hook singer and wanted to pursue other options. Since then, I have been writing for myself and other artists, performing at shows, placing songs, acting in films and living out loud.

As a creative person, it is so important to be who you are and define what is real for you. To speak your truth. To create your experiences and to take command of your art. Now, I am in control. I am not waiting on someone else to "make me".  I am not looking for someone to approve of me or my work. I am no longer chasing the dream but instead living it! My destiny is in my hands and my success is directly related to how hard I work and how far I want to go.

My success depends on me and knowing that is so liberating!
