John Legend is a cool guy. He likes to chill, is easy to talk to and hang out with. He's also inspiring on a musical level.

I come from a family of well-endowed booty women.

No one goes straight to happiness after a breakup.

Me being a black girl in London, whose mom is first-generation African and whose dad is West Indian, gives me a different view. I'm coming at soul from my own place.

You can't please everybody. I give up. I'm not trying to. I don't care. Leave me alone with that.

Sometimes I wake up in the morning and feel like going straight back to bed. But I still have to get up and work, and I still have to take advantage of the chances I've been given in life.

You have to have courage to look back and be honest about your own drama.

There is not enough faith in black music at a high level.

If you cannot smile when you listen to music, then do not listen to it!
