“There’s no label that is perfect but having people who believe in and are ready to fully support you, understand your vision, where you’re going and draw a plan that you can align with is priceless.
“You can rest easy. You trust the people around you and at the same time, you are building a legacy.
“At some point, I didn’t want to be a part of the label, then I thought to myself why not try something different?
“You’re running away from your blood, these are the people you love the most in the world and no one else will have your back as much as your family.
“So how do we make it work in a way that can help us all shine in the way that we deserve but also help us build something together? It has never been a competition and it will never be.”
