for is only we can achieve semen. one main goal was to put ready in my all my voice and the vision. ah, so much reaction on you to keep the comments questions coming? yeah me this is money. what is it like to be a woman? an activist, alice celebrity, we just learned there that you are u. n. d p. good, well master. now. so having all of those, those responsibilities wrapped up together, how do you manage to, how do you decide, what am i gonna support? what am i not going to support? i'm, i think being a woman, an artist and an activist, philanthropy, blah, blah, blah. even though these are just terms, 1st of all, i'm a woman and i think every woman in our only to way or big way, find themselves advocating for other people's piece of mine or the advocating for

other people's were mostly very selfless. that's my point. but in terms of, um, what i choose to support and what i choose to not support. yeah, i like to go with my conscience and most times i, i'd like to wear the shoes of the person in the situation. i feel like most times people find themselves in situations that are beyond them and where i see my voice can assist. i always lend my voice because sometimes all you need to just someone to echo what your desires and your, your struggles r, y c. now are a lot of celebrities you feel is part of their portfolio to include a course, have to include this cause i had to be waiting where the ribbon, where the badge, what makes what you're doing different. i think even before the budge, it was a column for me or finding a way to always help the people in my immediate environment. i come from a family that i don't call my family is in the rich family. i wasn't brought up

with a silver spoon, so i have seen the ups and downs of life and i know what it feels to be down there . and i know that when you are able to have someone in your corner fighting for you whether physically or just by sharing the news about the place, you might be facing a point in time. it's literally almost the problem solved, living covey vaccine inequity. you're experiencing that imagery, that's one of the causes that you are out there speaking very boldly about. tell me how that connects with your life and how you speaking out makes a difference. you know, i would say that 2020 was a different year for every one of us all fields of work. everybody was impacted by the adverse effects of call. the night scene. and sincere i think, is important to share the news about what's really happening. for instance,

i had some talks with a doctor who's actually put represents africa in the united world where he had to try and the bunks on myths about the vaccine. some people believe that the vaccine comes with a chip. yeah, so me find me think your government contract here, you know that i exist is not you. this is not, not, this is not true. and some people go go all the way to try and make sure that they make you believe that that is the truth. for it is not so i think the more people come out to say the truth about to say, to actually verify and save the pros and cons of the boxing, the better for everyone. yeah, and this is one of the programs that you're helping after school here on my, on my laptop, it's the myth or vaccination. it's a little quiz. yeah. you can play oh yes. or even it were picked up and it's on tick tock as well. and you can go for it. yes. for instance, there's no evidence of african immunity to cope with 19 mis,

or vax mis allied day. there is no evidence of african immunity to call it. of course, that is, that is the truth. there is no evidence. all right, so i mean those are the answers. you may not see. you'll find that on tape talk and i want to ask you this question and this is coming from tech talk folk. well excuse me and from twitter a little hard to get from tito. i'm to wants to know, how can you empower in managerial women based on your life experiences and that word and power is so powerful. and i'm wondering how you being a creative person helps another no jan woman, another woman have more power. i. this is destiny. i know that there is power in representation. just the fact that both of us are here right now. and people are watching us. no, and the girl at home right now watching us believe that her dreams of violet just

by seeing you. we have beautiful african attire, your hair just exactly as you look. i feel like my music and what i stand for has empowered a lot of humans around the world everywhere travel to there's a lady, you know she's, she's shaking with nerves and she's telling me how much to listen to my music, to feel stronger. she feels like she can do everything she wants to do. but aside the music, i have an angel which is about trying it, which focuses on trying to help people to reach their best and, and their, their most potential. recently we gave out a certain amount of money to about a $10.00 females. and the focus was female, inter partnership. because i believe that if you educate to empower a woman, you've indicated an entire generation. women are always in the position to, to help build a family where builders were, gro was one with the players. and that is why i like to focus on the female. and that is how i do my thing. samuel william is a big fan of yours and samuel has a video question for you. okay,
