In her own words: “I am honored to release “Street Life” – a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Joe Sample, The Crusaders, and the incomparable Randy Crawford. This song has long held a sacred place in my musical journey. Its sophistication, soul, and storytelling shaped the sound of contemporary jazz and influenced generations of artists, including me. Reimagining Street Life is both a celebration and a responsibility. I approached this recording with deep reverence for the original while allowing my own voice and lived experience to bring a fresh perspective to its timeless message. Featuring the incredible JJ Sansaverino and arranged & produced by Chris “BIG DOG” Davis, this rendition bridges eras — honoring the foundation while embracing the now. Street Life is the first single from my forthcoming 15th solo studio album, MILESTONES — a project that reflects legacy, growth, gratitude, and the beautiful road that music continues to take me on.”
