Yesterday my ex husband emailed asking if i’d send him some vocals in 10 hours for a song in a trailer for a big movie about diamonds …a rap song that needs a hook, a chorus. Every part of me screaming no no no, you have a show, a deadline, jobs to find, kids to raise! So naturally I said Yes! We need the money.
