Being an artist is NOT about talent. It’s about grit, perseverance, work ethic, growth, development of skills and craft, vulnerability, a willingness to cultivate and share your unique perspective, the emotional strength to withstand public critique, and a constant battle between wanting to just do your art versus the marketing required to reach people who love your music. #respectartists #respectwomen This video was from last year when i recorded the "Say You Love Me" music video.
