I use my music to both entertain and to enlighten. For example my single
“White Girl” will make you dance, laugh and think about the horrors of
drugs. White Girl is slang for “Cocaine”. The song White Girl is referring to
cocaine as “White Girl” it’s not making the comparison between a white woman
and cocaine.
