“I PROBABLY COULD ONLY DO EACH TAKE FOR LIKE TWO MINUTES AND THEN I NEEDED TO TAKE A BREAK.”
“IT ALSO FELT GOOD WORKING ON IT WHILE KNOWING I WAS ABOUT TO GIVE BIRTH TO MY NEWEST ANGEL, I WAS STILL GRINDING, AND MAKING IT ALL HAPPEN AT THE SAME TIME.”
“EVEN DOWN TO LITERALLY BEING IN LABOR HAVING TO GIVE APPROVALS FOR THE SONG TO MAKE THE DEADLINES — IT WAS JUST AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE THAT I WILL FOREVER CHERISH,”
“TO ALL MY BLACK BOYS AND BLACK GIRLS, MY BLACK KINGS AND BLACK QUEENS, THIS SONG IS FOR YOU, …STAY ROOTED.”
