I do want people to know that the songs that I wrote when I was with women were really about women. And the songs that I've written since have been fairly obvious about men.

You don't really hear a female perspective on the radio, because so many of the songs are being written by men.

To come to a concert and hear a lot of songs from a female perspective should not make men say, 'Oh well, that's for women'.

I don't know if I could write songs if it wasn't for the female race, to be honest with you.

I still don't know if I can write songs. I don't think anyone ever knows if they can write songs.

Women stand for the objective world for a man. They stand for the thing that you're not and that's what you always reach for in a song.

Women are a key part of the sound of the groups that accompany male singers like Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton, and myself.

Some very plausible stuff is being written by women in a way that most men are not doing.

I am happy that women can relate to my songs, and hopefully men can too.
