Her song, "Angel", kept rapper "DMC" (aka Darryl McDaniels) alive while dealing with the discovery of his adoption. He heard it on the radio and immediately felt the pull of the music. It gave him hope and gave him the strength to make it through that dark time in his life. As a result, he asked her to collaborate with him on his solo song "Just Like Me". During one recording session, she revealed she too had been adopted.

Happiness is like a cloud, if you stare at it long enough, it evaporates.

I've learned to trust myself, to listen to truth, to not be afraid of it and to not try and hide it.

We're constantly being told what other people think we are, and that's why it is so important to know yourself.

I don't worry about much anymore. The good thing about worry is that it's like pain. When it's not there, you don't remember what it feels like.

Time is a beautiful thing. It's like when you meet an old lover on the street six years later and they don't look so ugly anymore.
