The irony is that I was a single mother, and I raised five kids by myself and put myself through school. I bought my first house in 1999 -- that was a very big deal for me -- and now I have to sell it, only because they won't hire Americans. It's devastating.

There's an awful lot of talent not being tapped into.

It's impossible to listen to this music and not move something. It's so upbeat. It's so melodic.
