So there has been a lot going on lately.. Tomorrow MaMa D and I leave for Cannes, France for the Midem Music Conference. We both have never been there so it’s a completely new experience all within itself. Im not really sure what to expect besides the French Rivera, a lot of meetings, long hours of concentrating paying attention to all and every detail, as well as enjoying the experience and taking it in as a whole. OH and walking around in heels for days on end! Im great in them, I walk like a damn princess coming out of finishing school in them, they’re just a lot of work sometimes to say the least.
I’m an out going person, so turning the charm on shouldn’t be a problem! Haha
We’re flying to the other side of the Atlantic Ocean in hopes of licensing my music, and I mean licensing on all levels you could license and sync music. We’re also looking for the “right deal” with a major label for promotions and marketing. I say “right deal” because major labels will screw the artist any chance they get out of monies that are rightfully owed to the artist, but the artist in this case usually isn’t educated enough and signs a contract which signed there rights away to the label for X amount of years. But that is a whole other conversation that could continuously go back and forth with pro’s and con’s. Anyway, we are also going out there with an open mind, who knows what the universe will present to us while we’re there. We are looking at this like another door opening and another step into my career. So hopefully nothing but good things will come out of Midem for meJ
Also Tuesday January 31st 2012, we will be releasing my new single D!RTY off my Sophomore album “Musick Disease” due out late spring early summer through digital release. It’ll be available on Itunes as well as other online stores. Im really excited to release this particular single, I feel it hits home for anyone who has ever been done Dirty by another person. Its been a long time in the works and to have the final product ready to rock and roll is an accomplishment all within itself. When we get back from France Ill be starting the treatment for the music video. Shouldn’t take to long, the story line will actually follow the lyrics in the song. J That’s the only thing Im sayin! Well Im going to leave it here, gotta go finish packing and getting ready for tmrw!
OH and just to let everyone know my music is back up and running on iTunes! Thank you for your patience and loving support!
As always I love all my Lunatics <3

So0o its Thursday December 8th 2011. Christmas is right around the corner, cant believe the holidays are almost over, let me rephrase that, I cant believe this year is already over. Anyway I have been in bed all week on vocal rest. As most of you know I had surgery on my voice this past Monday. I am happy to report that I am doing well and that I am alive. I am on vocal rest until tmrw, so I literally have not spoken to anyone since Monday before going in under the knife. I had a nodule and a cyst removed from my larynx. This was an extremely nerve wracking surgery for me considering my voice is my career. But I have faith in a full recovery. J
I’m not going to lie I actually enjoyed doing nothing but lay in my bed this past week doing absolutely nothing but sleep, read, and watch movies. It was something I really needed, I could have done without the circumstances but then my voice wouldn’t be getting any better
anyway I wanted to write this blog to let everyone know I appreciate their thoughts and their prayers for me this past week and the just let everyone know how I am doing. I am truly blessed to have received the messages, tweets, wall posts, ect. That I have this past week from everyone. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I feel so loved and look forward to getting back to work!
SoOo0o0o0… As I said on my FB fanpage the other day… I don’t like to talk about myself… Its difficult for me to write a blog sometimes just because I’m a bold person and I don’t want to come off as an arrogant bitch, because I am the complete opposite of that… Sometimes I actually feel I am TO NICE… Kind of crazy, but true. I feel it is a cocky quality to talk about yourself all the time, but I guess it’s necessary if you are involved in the entertainment industry… Another reason is because I am a skeptic… If I feel I have a great idea, right? Say I was recording a video of me in the studio and posted it on Ustream or something of that nature, I feel like someone would steal or jack my idea… It’s happened before, and it’s happened to me…so call me paranoid or whatever it is you’d like… I learn from my mistakes and my experiences… Ive gained the knowledge of life… This is why I need my own documentary style series non scripted reality show…
One… because my life is chaos, two because I have some original ideas, and three the people I surround myself with are just truly amazing people filled with life…
Something that this world doesn’t know in reality TV anymore… Everything is about drama, and negativity… WTF is that?! The world, the news, the Internet so much of it is already filled with drama and negativity, why put it on reality TV as well? Besides most of reality TV is scripted… I mean I guess people just want to get away from their own drama so they turn on the TV and see that “celebrities” have it the same way… when the reality is… of coarse they do… their humans too…except theirs is scripted for the cameras and eventually they all crash & burn. That’s what American t.v. has come to these days, were addicted to the train wrecks & dysfunction.
Anyway… I’m a philosopher of my life as well as life in general… Soo0o that’s a whole different subject for another place and time… We are here to talk about what I am doing musically and what’s going on right now… Well right now I am listening to my newest song “Worst Nightmare” in my headphones as I write this blog… It helps me write, as well as gain inspiration for “fill ins” of the song… I cant really give you too much information about the song… But I will give you this… GURLSSSSSS YOU”LLLL LOVEEEE ITTT…. Guys you will to, I just have a feeling women will more just bc its from their perspective!!! J
I have a lot of amazing things going on… College radio is adding my record LUNATICS like its going out of style…I’ve had 20 adds in just two weeks, which by the way is absolutely F-IN AMAZING… THANK YOU college radio stations that have added my record!!! You are THE SHIT!!!!
I just got a new Euro style remix of Lunatics by DJ Chris “The Greek” Panaghi who is amazing…Ive had sooooo many DJs emailing the IM Musick team requesting DJ Drops so Ive been bangN them out daily. I still have hundreds more to go. I get so tongue tied saying the same thing over & over lol. I’m back in the studio working on 4 new records, preparing and mixing a couple others that are in my back pocket that very few know about… Im Getting ready to go to Cannes, Paris in January for Midem…The Worlds largest music conference to shop my new records for licensing & possible deals. I have a great feeling about it J I have a great feeling about everything that is currently going on in my life. I am blessed, I am thankful, and I am truly inspired…
I am flying high on life right now…Most of all I have amazing fans that are helping me get there and watching my process unfold! Thank you so much for all your love & support. It means so much to me that my music is being felt by so many in so little time.
I once was told that once you get there, the “HITS” keep pouring out… It’s an energy that wont stop until you do… well I hope that’s true because as I listen to this song in my headphones right now, I feel like all things are possible and are happening… Im going to leave it at that… J Its like the cliffhanger in a story… or… when your reading in bed and cant help but fall asleep… TO BE CONTINUED……
