It becomes obvious when people are sincere in their criticism and when they're not. I've learned over time that people will always have something to say.
A lot of people don't realize that when you're trying to lose weight, or just trying to stay fit, 85 percent of it is what you eat, and 15 percent of it is how you work out.
I like to oversee what I do, so I have a hand in writing my songs. I also have people there to help me with my vision.
I love when people have their own creative vision, when a person stands out and tries different things.
It's just so cool when you meet people who are different than you are. That can give you a different perspective, a viewpoint on life, or inspire you. I mean, what would the world be like if we were all the same? I think it would be very boring.
I never understood when people would say, 'I would die for my child,' but you become so selfless.
For me, I like old-school rap music. There was a time when music was so, so rich overall, and the content of what people talked about was so deep on every level, song-for-song, pound-for-pound, and on radio, there was so much content. I gravitate more towards that type of music, to be honest.
It's sad how people want to see us females go against each other. Never been for that. Never will.
I think it's so fun when I get to work with women writers in particular because we really understand the core story or foundation as women. That's so important to me that the authenticity is there, you know, from the place that I speak from for my women. Having other females with me helps me dig deeper.
I think cool moments like winning a Grammy deserve a nice little party where you really soak it in and not have to work and stuff. I do remember throwing a party on that Grammy night, but it was work.
I tell myself that water is my medicine and that to stay well, I have to drink a gallon of it every day.
Juggling being a mom and an entertainer is a challenge I face every day.
You can either allow social media to be helpful for you or it can be harmful. I like to let it be helpful.
You live and you learn. My son has given me so much clarity.
