I'm able to switch gears at any moment.
I'm a songwriter, an artist, and a musician. I do not have to try to be that; I just am.
I love writing songs, but I don't want to write the songs everyone else is asking me to write.
For me, Heaven is evoking emotions through sound.
Food is supposed to be vibrant, fresh, filled with color.
You kind of have to have no ego to be a producer and a songwriter.
I don't think I could make a pop album.
I have a lot of songs that I kind of put away, and I don't let anybody else hear them, and those are my songs.
I think women gravitate toward me because I am a woman producing and songwriting, and there's none out there. There really isn't.
I usually write songs in a guy key because my voice is so husky.
I don't think I'm the world's greatest producer or songwriter or anything.
I did love 'What's Up?' but I hated the production.
I'm extremely hard to work with.
I'm just in tune to myself and what I need from the universe.
I want to be so giving and collaborative, but my best songs were written on my own.
It's not a 'sexy' position, being the producer. You have to be very bossy. You have to be very aggressive.
It'll never get old to hear a song that I wrote on the radio or to hear what someone experienced when they heard a song I wrote.
To give is one of the greatest gifts one could ever receive.
I don't feel the need to be in the spotlight whatsoever.
There's nothing you could do to me, nothing you could take away from me that would make me feel like I wasn't going to be all right.
You need a big team to support a career.
I'm not a children's songwriter. I'm not in that world.
There's a lot of artists that are celebrities, not really artists.
I was raised in a time when parents brought out belts, and you got tough love.
Sometimes I'll look back at old pictures where I'm a little heavy and dressed funny and think, 'How did I get chicks all the time?'
