A few weeks ago, God pulled me from my living room onto the Apollo Music Café stage. I went from being terrified to perform three minutes in February to performing six times this year 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🔥 And closing it out with my own creation that blended music, monologue, and artistic therapy. I healed with this show. I grew with this show. I became more free. My faith expanded. This experience changed me, and I’m forever grateful. Thank you to @iamdwightjordan for sliding in my DMs and blessing me with the opportunity to open the @apollotheater Music Café series this year. What an honor it’s been. ♥️ So much love to the incredible team who helped bring this to life: 📸 Photographer: @jcoleshotit 🎥 Videographer: @filmedbydame 🎶 Background arrangement & my Big Brother @juslevytation 🎹 Music director & producer: @jdelonmusic 🎤 Phenomenal singers: @ahmadartist_ @therealkimara 💼 Music manager: @alaishablessed 💇🏾♀️ Hair: @deetrannybear 👗 Dress (made within 24 hours!): @angelayalacouture 🌻✨ Publicist: @nianawill 💎 @bevysmith Thank you for blessing the night with your grace, humor, and power. ♥️♥️ To everyone who attended, supported, and poured love into this night… thank you. This moment lives in my heart forever. “Dreams are real. All you have to do is just believe.” – Ashanti If this is the beginning, I can’t wait to see what else is in store. 🚀🙏🏾 #InternationalHouseholdName #ApolloMusicCafe #GratefulHeart #FaithJourney #DreamsAreReal #LivePerformance #CreativeHealing #HarlemNights #PurposeInProgress #BlackGirlMagic #MusicAndMonologue

Sho & Tell ✨🌸 Sharing my favorite DIY project my floral jacket— One of the first pieces in my closet, where my fashion and film journey intertwined. 🎬👗 Do you have any meaningful pieces you love or have DIY’d? #fashion #DIY #actress #movie #internationalhouseholdnane
Shot this in the middle of the night a few weeks ago and debated on sharing. It’s not my most polished, but the message was worth sharing. I speak it, I receive it. Big shout out to the big GOD 🙌🏿 #InternationalHouseholdName #FaithWalk #GratefulHeart #LateNightThoughts #PurposeInTheProcess #KeepSpeaking #testimony
I wrote Black from a real place—out of pain, out of frustration, out of love for my people. This song carries so much, and I’m grateful for the chance to share it with you all. Black is out now on all music platforms—tap in. 🎶🎵🖤

My heart is overflowing. I was nominated for a Hollywood Music in Media Award for Best On Screen Performance for Drugs In My Booty from Season 3 of Harlem. 🎶✨ This year has been a deep return to my music. I have been trusting God and trusting my gifts in a new way and to have this nomination feels so divine. Shout out to all of the Broadway dancers, singers, and the phenomenal @camilleabrown who choreographed this dynamic celebration of black girl magic and laughter. We worked so hard on this number. Long hours, weekends, all of us moving with one mission to create something that felt like Broadway and modern rap had a beautiful baby. To see it acknowledged is a blessing. Congratulations to @iamsukari ,one of my favorite souls, for writing this song. Thank you @tracyyoliver for your vision. Thank you @sheawilliamvanderpoort for directing with brilliance and heart. ❤️ Thank you to the @hmmawards for the honor. I wish I could be there tonight. Sending love to all the nominees. God is truly amazing. 🙏🏿✨ #HMMA #Harlem #HarlemOnPrime #MusicAndPerformance #ActressLife #SingerLife #InternationalHouseholdName
