Today marks my 25th year in entertainment. I began in the mainstream and walked away early when I realized I wanted ownership, control, and freedom. I’ve spent 20 of those years fully independent—learning hard lessons, gaining real wisdom, and building something lasting. What once cost me everything is now what artists pay me to teach them. It’s been joyful, demanding, and transformative—and it’s far from over. Twenty-five years down, forty more to go.

I hope that your brother and husband get those criminal records expunged, seeing how hard you pandered for them. 💦

My talent, recorded voice, image, publishing, distribution, masters and brand are all owned exclusively by me. Best decision that I ever made. My ancestors were slaves that fought to free themselves, I was not about to willingly sign myself up for slavery, simply because the chains turned from iron to gold.

Ps. My song “Black Stilettos” that discusses my decision to go independent, is streaming now on all platforms. ✨

Open enrollment is now live for December. I’m officially booking new clients for private 1-on-1 mentoring. With over 20 years of experience building a successful global brand, combined with more than two decades of my own work in therapy with psychiatrists and licensed therapists—and guidance from mentors and scholars—I bring real tools, real perspective, and lived wisdom to this work. My mentoring is about empowerment, accountability, and learning how to repair what life has fractured without shame. If you’re ready to invest in yourself and do the work, visit TheQueenOfShade.com or text 702-900-6183 to book your first session.

I owe my existence and my success to my maternal grandmother. I enjoy my life and my company’s debt-free status because of the sacrifices she made for me. I will never grow tired of telling this woman, ‘Thank you.’

I am the Phoenix. I am 43. Born poor, but brilliant. I’ve spent my whole life climbing — not to prove a point, but to build a legacy. Today, I stand as The Queen of Shade™ — and I am deeply proud of the life I’ve made.

Ps. If your love doesn’t pay, it is a liability, not an asset. 🤷🏾‍♀️
