Bustle - Happy Black History Month!

Happy Black History Month and/or Renaissance World Tour ticket season to all who celebrate! I am once again in a silly, goofy mood and watching the women of Black history roll call as I crunch numbers. Rent and bills are due, I may be planning a trip or two, AND Beyoncé is coming. I’ve registered for shows in three different cities (D.C./Atlanta/New Orleans, make some noise) but I refuse to let these ticket prices break my soul. If I get them, I get them; if I don’t, I don’t! May the odds be ever in our favor.

“I want to celebrate the wins, but also think about what I can do to move forward, elevate, get better, learn, and just be a better artist and a better person. I’m not necessarily reaching for one mountaintop moment.”
