I'm Going To Let People Know That

When I Was 17, My Producer Rodney Jerkins Was Working With Michael Jackson At The Time. He Knew How Much I Wanted To Meet Michael Jackson, So He Says, 'would You Like To Come And Meet Him?' I'm Like, 'are You Serious? Of Course I Want To Meet Michael Jackson! Where Do I Meet You? Where Do We Come?'

And I'm Looking At Him Like, 'oh My God. This Is Michael Jackson'. I Fainted, Blacked Out - Like Seriously Blacked Out.

I've Figured Out The Secret. Your Mind Is Your Power; You Have To Work With Your Mind And Work With Your Own Thoughts About Your Own Life. If You Spend So Much Time Thinking, "this Industry Is Male-dominated. It's Sexist. It's This. It's That," Then That's What The Picture Will Always Be. I Remember When I Was Coming Up, I Didn't Have Those Thoughts. My Mom Told Me I Could Be Whatever I Wanted To Be And I Could Be As Bright Of A Star As I Was Meant To Be. So, That's Where I Put All Of My Focus And My Thought...into What I Could Do. And I Carry That With Me Now.

In My Life Right Now, In My Music, And Just Overall I Feel Like I'm Winning. It Doesn't Matter What This Person Is Saying Or What The Charts Are Saying Or What Award Shows Are Saying, The Public Opinion Doesn't Matter. I Feel Like I'm Winning In My Spirit.

I Was Rapping As A Hobby. It Was Something I Did For My Friends And Just Played Around On Ideas And Stuff Like That.
