Let me say this you bet not worry about what other people say about you because no matter what you have to look out for you.Look how you got all your fam back together that could have not be easy for you to do. BUT GIRL YOU GOT IT GOING ON AND PLEASE KEEP GOING.
Keyshia, You are fantastic! I've only recently started watching your show. I'm old school and I lived in ATL. for over 20 years -- that's what drew me in. You are a marketing genius. Like many of us you probably looked around your family and said " This sh--t if unbelievable, I gotta market this stuff." and so it goes. You are bright, sensitive, beautiful, talented and you love God -- there is only more success coming your way. You always use the word AMAZING. I have a song for you, no kidding words and music and it is your style. May God continue to bless you and both your families. you have the most unusual capacity to give --> LOVE, LOVE AND MORE LOVE. I am proud of your success and the way you became an overcomer.
