Question: is there anything u are doing with the new album that you didnt get to do with the
last? how does it feel to know that people are anticipating ur new album?
Answer: With the new album, Im getting to put it all together myself without having to deal
with other people telling me what I should and shouldnt be doing... since Im on my husbands
label, I can be as creative as I want and not have to change a thing to please anyone. Im not
doing this album for fame, Im doing it for redemption. It will also be glorifying to God as I
mentioned in my other post. Im excited to know people are anticipating a new album from me...
especially because now I will be able to touch people in a way I couldnt before because
spiritually I wasnt ready when the first album came out. I have so much more to offer this time
around.

Question: are u gona use some of the tracks from "Fly Away" on this album or add any as
bonus tracks?

life when I recorded Fly Away and it doesnt represent who I am now.

Question: what do you do in your spare time when your not busy w/ the your music or the kids, what else does sole' like to do?
Answer: As far as my spare time... I dont have much of that at all... my family takes up the majority of my day, but on Friday's I have a bible study/mentoring program at my house called God's Girls and its for girls ages 5 to 18 and me and two of my closest friends, Shae Jones and Monet Love, we teach class for two hours.. its wonderful! The mission statement for our group is "Growing young girls into virtuous women by depositing seeds of knowledge so that they may always walk with the spirit of God and know the love of the Lord." That is my main project right now and it takes up a lot of my time... other than that and writing and recording (In addition to my album, Im about to start working on an inspirational/gospel album with Shae Jones)and running the kids to gymnastics, I usually just hang out with my husband and we watch movies or go out or I go out on the road with him .. thats about it :)

Question: What albums/ or songs are you listening to right now?
Answer: Right now, Im listening to a gospel artist named Lisa McClendon... she has a song called Grace that I LOVE!! I love her album... I havent bought any other albums in a while... I like Smokey Norful though, I like Kanye West ..I was listening to Beyonce for a while... I still listen to my old Mint Condition cd's though and I love Indian music... I listen to the Bend It Like Beckham soundtrack and the Monsoon Wedding soundtrack.. I like some of Nickelbacks stuff and I also buy tapes from church of our pastor preaching. My absolute favorite thing to listen to though is a cd I got out of the back of a book called Teach Me How to Love You.. the cd is a sermon by Juanita Bynum and it is funny, inspirational and REAL! I love it... me and my girls listen to it a lot.

Question: why did Story wanna tke gymnastics, does she wannna tap dance or turn flips be etc....Tell her I said heyy shes so adorable!
Answer: Story wanted to take gymnastics because she is naturally gifted.. she flips all the time so we put her in class... all the girls take it except Dream because shes too young but she will start when she turns two. I think its important for girls to be involved in sports.

{ Topic: Sole? do you know...... }
Question: Good questions LUV4SOLE.. I would like to know to.. and one more thing Solé When ur about to go on tour, do u have any say so on where ur going?? 
Answer: And as far as going on tour and having a say as to where you go...for individual shows or spot dates where you're not actually on a tour, promoters call your management to book you for shows and you decide whether or not you want to accept it based on your schedule, the money theyre paying, etc....if youre on a tour, the cities and dates are set from the beginning and theyre all usually back to back shows in different cities, but the promoters put that together. We dont just pick what cities we want to go to..its all based on demand and how many people they will be able to bring in and again thats all done by the promoters and/or radio stations.

{ Topic: Sole? do you know...... }
Question: Hey, wasup Sole I have another question for you since you have been in the biz for awhile. Do artist get to pick what they want to have released as a singles off their albums? what do the record label execs look at for a potential single? what song off of your 1st album would you have made a single after "4,5,6" and "It Wasn't Me"?
Sole? do you know......
Answer: The label will take into consideration what you would like the singles to be, but they have the final say. As far as what they look for.... whatever is usually the most radio friendly and catchy...which ever one they feel is gonna be a hit basically. As far as what i wanted my singles to be... i didnt choose 4,5,6 or It Wasnt Me. I wanted Accurate Math to be the first single and For the Love of You or We've Been Trying Too Long to be the second single, but as you can see, the label had made the decisions as to what they wanted.

{ Topic: Sole' another Q. }
Question: sup sole'? u havent posted for a min... how u been? i just wanna know wussup with that Snoop Dogg and Mahogany movie? oh and thoes commercials for urban designer Karl Kani, you were gonna be in? 
Answer: as far as the snoop movie, snoop had contacted my people and requested that i play his sister in the movie, unfortunately it never materialized so if it ever does and they get everything straight on the business end, i will still hopefully be who they want fo the film. im just not sure if the film will ever be made now. as far as mahogany.....same deal..i was asked to be a part of that film project but that never materialized either and im not sure if it ever will. as far as karl kani, someone mentioned it to me before but i was never asked to do that(that i know of:) so hopefully this next time around, there will be an opportunity for more offers that actually come to be:)
