When you have curls, you want straight hair. And when you have straight hair you want curls. When you have nappy hair you want silky smooth hair. That’s how I used to feel about my hair when I was younger. I just wanted to fit in and not be the odd one out.
But then the soulquarian/neo-soul movement, you know with D’angelo, the roots, Common, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, India. Arie (among others) hit the musical scene. I was in my teens and was just amazed..Wauw wauw..I looooved everything about that movement. The music of course AND their sense of style. To my young eyes they exuded an aesthetic I had never seen before on pop stars. One that was afrocentric. One that celebrated black beauty in a different way. I was used to seeing very slick R&B stars wearing hairstyles that were emulating something I personally could not really relate to. Even though I was a sucker for R&B music. The style though, didn’t resonate. But neo-soul won my heart. A bit more jazzy, more funk..more soul..I don’t know..
Another pivotal moment with me really embracing my hair the way it is, is when I travelled to Paris as a teenager. I saw so many young black Afro-French women rocking their natural hair. At that time I lived in Maastricht where there was just a very tiny Afro- European community. Unlike Paris. When I came back to Maastricht, I decided to never ever straightened my hair again. From then on, It would just be braids, crochet, or my afro. It felt like a personal hair revolution. Something so small can feel so huge, even liberating. At least to me it is, I love my nappy hair and I switch it up with all kinds of different black hairstyles every now and then. I love the versatility of my hair.
If/when you see me out in the street, I beg you..,please DON’T TOUCH MY HAIR!! You invade someone’s private space by doing that.
I once was so mad after some strange woman stood behind me and started to touch my afro, so I did the same back to her..also went through her hair without asking..she didn’t expect that, you should have seen her face😅..but seriously…don’t do that. It’s weird, awkward and above all very, very rude.😌

2017- Breaking Cycles - little story time📝😌
Prior to becoming pregnant with my daughter Lizz, I would refer to my albums as my “children”.
Maybe because I felt like music came from a visceral place. You know, how you get these butterflies when you hear that beautiful melody, nice rhythm,groove, that amazing symphony…it gives you butterflies in your..well, in your belly..so I guess to call something that you have put all your heart into your “baby” is not that far fetched.
Until it is. When I became pregnant for the first time, I was 31. By then I had been in this music thing professionally for 9 years. Almost a decade. I had done a lot and something started to change. My sense of purpose. What was I chasing? Why was I making all these albums, performing, touring…what for??
I had many questions and I felt stuck. Seems to be normal, when you hit 30. Well, this album marks a chapter in my life where I started a deep dive into the so called generational patterns in my family. Like, really look in the mirror, trace back some things and work on myself. It was time to start doing the inner work. It was time for me to turn myself inside out and really get to the core of things I wasn’t even really aware of. Behavioral, physical, spiritual, mental, emotional, psychological, and again, generational patterns. I started to see my blind spots, like really see them… and I wanted to start doing the work. Start breaking cycles.

As I write this I am 41 years old. I am 10 years further.
If there is one thing I have learned is that working on one self is a process, a life long journey. I am not flawless, without blemish..but I have definitely managed to break some of those heavy chains and strongholds. I have learned many beautiful lessons I happily pass on to my children. The best thing I have learned throughout this ongoing journey is that
I am enough. God made no mistake when he made me. Quirks and all.
I’ve stopped overcompensating and stopped believing in the “I have to be strong and have everything figured out all the time” lie…it’s exhausting, I can lean into God when I’m weak and lost. He is my strength and is infinitely wise. Now, always and forever.
