If I just have to say it in words, it’s just a fresh sound and fresh feel." She also said "I don’t have an album name yet because I’m holding off on the final product. We’ve been working almost three years on the album. You should definitely expect a classic album. As far as features, we have Jim Jonsin and we have Earl and E. There’s a long list of people that we’ve been working with. As far as features are concerned, we have Lil’ Wayne right now. I don't want to go crazy with the features because it is my debut album so I'm really looking forward to the world getting a chance to know me as an artist and just fall in love with my music."
