I'm not very good at writing songs when I have a lot of clutter in my mind.
From Solange Knowles
My parents constantly tried to talk me out of being an artist. They had gone through the whole journey with my sister and just wanted me to have a normal teenage life.
I still stand behind the stuff I did early on, but I was on a record label, and I didn't have a lot of creative control. Another side of that is just being young and having bad taste. There was plenty of that, too.
Everyone talks about how, in your 30s, all of these growing pains transition into wisdom and you feel more self-assured and confident, but I think I had a bit of a jump-start on that at 27.
If I had to define 'sexy' now, as Disney as it sounds, I would have to say it's about complete and utter confidence.
Mainstream media tends to showcase a very specific kind of Mardi Gras, but my experience of Mardi Gras is very different; it's very cultural.
I have always had tremendous respect for my sister as an artist, as a woman, and now as a mother.
I feel like I was 30 when I was 17, and I decided to get married and have a baby.
Fashion is a strange world sometimes. Amazing, but strange.
I'd rather live in the U.S. than Europe.
