Motown will always be a heavy-duty part of my life because those are my roots.

Once you're a Motown artist, you're always a Motown artist.

As a kid, this is what I wanted my life to be. Not in my wildest dreams did I ever dare to dream that it would be this.

I don't ever balk at being considered a Motown person, because Motown is the greatest musical event that ever happened in the history of music.

One thing I can say about the Motown acts is that we were a family. That's not a myth.

Singing is and always will be a part of my life.
