Keyshia Cole is busy working on a new album, reportedly titled Keyshia.
While speaking of the effort in a recent interview, the “Heaven Sent” singer also shared her thoughts when it comes to self esteem and being labeled a role model for young girls…
“I think it is great that I can be an influence to young girls. However, what I do promote is being yourself. The advice I give to young girls who follow people of influence, are never forget who you are and always love yourself.”
“I think what young teens have to realize is that it is more to life than what they are presented with. I was one of those people in poverty, not knowing where I was going to lay my head at one point, but I had to brainwash myself into knowing what I wanted out of life and the beauty of my talent. Once I got set in that, there was nothing stopping me. I got out of Oakland. I did not like what it represented at that point in my life. There are aspects of Oakland, educational programs, sports programs, child development and teen clubs that teens do not take advantage of because they are not taught those things. They are not taught that there are ways to make the best out of your life even when you’re at an all time low. (TheHipHopDiva)”
