“This album has been an incredible adventure. It has been a journey filled with surprises, lessons, music, and most importantly love. Recording my songs and putting together this body of work has helped me grow not only as an artist but more importantly as a woman. I will never forget one moment of the making of “Be Not Nobody” for it is a part of me. I would like to thank everyone that has helped make this journey possible. // To the man: Ron Fair. You’ve helped me make the record of my dreams. Thank you for being so brilliant, so dedicated, and for understanding me like no one else. I am a better musician because of you. // Peter Malkin for stepping in and being my warrior man even at the worst of times. Thanks for the faith and for making me laugh. No girl could ask for a better manager. // I’d like to thank every single person at my label for working their asses off.

I don’t say it enough, but I love you guys. To Jennifer- what would I do without you. // And last, but certainly not least, thank you Abe Laboriel Jr., Lee Sklar & John Goux. You guys have taught me so much. You are incredible musicians and I am humbled to work with you all. Not only are you all so talented but you guys are a great hang.
