Even Chaka Khan Had to Grow Into Her Most Powerful Songs

That's a lot to take on. And I feel my songs, I have to sell them, I have to believe it. I'm now very comfortable with it—but only in the last, maybe, 10 years.
E!: How do you re-center yourself after experiencing frustration or something didn't turn out the way you hoped?E!: Drawing on your own experiences, what advice do you have for today's young artists?I think what singers and musicians need to hear today is, work hard and stand in your space—and not get turned around. If you are trying to give a certain message to people and it's important to you, stick with it.

I don't know if I love myself yet, but I'm working on it.You've called yourself a perennial, blooming when the times need you—is this the seed of what might be a new album, or are you taking it one song at a time?I may be blooming more than once a year—'cause I got to bloom fast—so I may just step it up a bit. There's more stuff coming, absolutely.
