Tammy: What are some memorable moments in your career so far?

Christenelle: Being with Jadakiss, Poobs, and Big Mike The Ruler all in one room listening to my song with Keith Murray laughing and turning up! That was something I can never forget.

Be sure to focus, manifest, and believe to achieve. Keep your eye on the prize and not the storm around you.

Trust Me, it will get hard. The more you keep at it, you will be climbing Mount Everest in no time. Believe Believe Believe !!!!!!! step 3, Practice!
