She's different.... I love India. She say I don't need all that celebrity stuff. That doesn't validate me. Yes I am gifted to sing but I don't need to be in the in crowd to appreciate my own gift..
No way!!! Tell her I LOVE her!!! Her music speaks to my SOUL 4 REAL!!! I've been to ONLY 2 of her concerts but I wish I could get to ALL of them. She IS most definitely a beautiful woman inside and out.
I went to Sisters of Soul concert about 10 years ago. We were standing on the second level, looking down to the crowd, waiting for the doors to open to be seated. And there was this woman who just had this incredible Aura around her gracefully walking through the crowd. I didn't know who she was, but I said she has that "it" Factor. The crowd was literally parting like the Red Sea for her, and everyone was turning around to admire her presence. I did not know that was India until she joined another artist impromptu on stage. It really blew me away, she doesn't even need any type of celebrity, she was like an angel walking amongst Mortals.
This Sister is so Sincere so Supreme and so Gifted Black & Beautiful she has always been this way she's been making beautiful relevant music for a long time and I am proud to say that I am a Fan.
India is the embodiment of a Diva, because she is in the Light and comes from a place of authenticity, humility, truth, and integrity. She honors her gift. She represents her gift respectfully (it is, after all, divine). Her writing has resonated with me from day 1 of my discovery of her. Thank you, India!!!
Would u prefer them get a small name actress that wouldn't draw an audience? India is dope af in her craft but so is Zoe. Ppl caught up mad because of a melanated woman's birth place as if we weren't all on boats shipped out. Zoe is an A lister who still do all black cast hood favorites like Takers. And has corrected interviewers who denote her race over her nationality. "I am a black woman". If mofos wouldn't have been in their feelings the movie woulda done ok BUT nina was slept on because of politics. Smh. She's too light? She's too pretty? She's not American black? Wooooow. It could have introduced a younger audience to Nina like straight outta Compton did with these kids but nope lets get in our feelings and not Let Nina get re exposed. #theWrongFight
@@ladyo8297 zoe is a trained MELANATED actress that is great at her craft, acting. What would make India better? Because she's dark? Isn't that a bit superficial? India herself says she's no actess. If acting in a video is a challenge where the director had to hold her hand why expect a studio to put money behind her for a major role? DON'T MAKE MY COMMENT ABOUT SKIN TONE. My comment is about who could act and embody the character the best. No one was mad when Laurence Fishbourne played Ike with not even the slightlest physical resemblance. But Because he is a genuis at his craft he made us see him as Ike not a light skin tall dude playing a short dark guy. India and Zoe are both queens that's dope af AT THEIR CRAFT. The bigger picture is Ninas story got buried because of #theWrongFight
India is one amazing beautiful soul, been following for fews years, words in songs have been inspirational, motivated, we need more like this beautiful lady, hope one day come to UK.
So much inspiration: I remember how almost 20 years ago at an after school program in one of the roughest neighborhoods in SF I was introduced to her music by little black and brown girls joyfully singing her songs at the top of their lungs...Earth Angels are real!
I am a big fan!!! of India.Arie music and her many talents. I love!!! her positive energy, the way she carry herself in a respectful manner. She is such a beautiful!! and talent person. God bless!! her career endeavors.
@Al Person Same here, Al. My personal musical artist Mount Rushmore is: Stevie Wonder (#1 All-time) Bob Marley Jimi Hendrix Prince Runners up (I think this would be my next four): Marvin Gaye Curtis Mayfield Aretha Franklin Babyface
I saw her in NC this month and she was phenomenal...I loved her candidness and songs....only one complaint...she didn't do her new single Magic and it felt like the #songversation ended abruptly. I still l♥️ve her and enjoyed everything!
Wow this woman speaks to me. Her song "Soulbird Rise" called me to a higher calling which led me to make a HUGE decsion. Now that I am here, I am questioning whether I am worthy of being where I am now and now she's telling me that I am worthy, that I am deserving!
Gregory Hunter uuum no she wouldn’t. 😂 Many artist are already doing that and STILL aren’t as big as Beyoncé. There’s no comparison. Each artist has their own unique talent that we get to enjoy. 🙌🏾
I understand and appreciate both of your point of views but if you listened to Beyonce and India, they both promotes individuality and spirits. Love each other.
Jerusalem Zion love this comment!! So short but i feel this!! I’ve been a fan of hers since I’ve ‘met her music’ so long ago!! She is so relatable to a level headed human!!
Such a beautiful, inspiring, original, gift-filled, catalyzing & trailblazing Spirit & being. What a charming and authentic peek into her Soul. So grateful for India and Worthy, and all India brings that resonates so deeply, and uplifts my Soul, and so very many lives, creatives and souls in and beyond America! Thank you for this nourishing, nurturing expression and fun! Cherishing this! A blessed exchange. Amazing. Stay blessed Y'all!
Queen India is so right on time and divine. She has a heart of gold to give the way she does. Blessings to her life and all her aspirations and inspirations.
Saw her in Detroit a few weeks back best concert ever. It was so personal I barely recorded anything because I was in the moment and wanted to experience the songversation. Worthy is one my favorite albums right now and probably will be forever.
"Row, Row, Row your boat. Gently down the stream. Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily. LIFE IS BUT A DREAM." Those words are so profound that I recorded it at the end of my 1st CD. I feel you James Taylor. India, My recipe is "Roasted ROOT vegetables in coconut oil!" Try it and slap yo mama! "
This is Sooo Refreshingly Beautiful Awesome..She has traveled with me since my last 51/2 years with my Mom being Bed Bound .. I had her 14 years 4months and 4 days. Beside God This Woman has allowed be to still be me as I was with My Mom..Sooo AWESOME SWEETNESS TO THE SPIRIT SOUL MIND AND BODY .. Thank You Worthy
I really like this woman just discovered her the other day randomly bought her music from a shop have see a black female artist I get the album and she's amazing but hearing her talk just an intelligent woman very likeable
I am immensely enjoying her authenic, splendid, non pretentious vibe. I like her African Queen and got that internal African Godly self assurance. She is the real deal!
She’s always so beautiful in light and that’s the type of life that I am living no fb nor instagram. A guy that I am seeing told me that I was so beautiful my spirit inside and out that I was “worthy” says he’s never met s woman that gave him no contact and told him what I would and would not put up with...here’s the thing when I open my eyes tell the creator thank you and when time comes and my eyes no longer open thank you Lord for everything next I deep breath exercising do yoga drink mint and cucumber water growing me a small garden giving back to the community reading Nancy drew books in the am and living life kiss my son on his cheeks in the morning watch him while he sleeps I thank God everyday for my special bundle of joy oh yeah moisturizer lol
u disappointed me with the r kelly issue I always thought of u as a person who thinks deep but obviously u r not bcoz if u listen to mainstream media trying to destroy your own race it's a shame
She is a great artist. But I would give him his day in court. I wouldn’t trust what other people say in the documentary. I’m surprised on her comment. If he is wrong then so be it but give him his day in court. We are too quick to place judgement on us.
She's different.... I love India. She say I don't need all that celebrity stuff. That doesn't validate me. Yes I am gifted to sing but I don't need to be in the in crowd to appreciate my own gift..
Tracey Jones “because she soooo soulful” 👍🏾👍🏾
Luv her 💜
Amen! Well said.
love her! Thanks for the comment! keep watching!
@@islandgal2583 yaaassssss
@Chas Stack thats why I love her!
No children..in human form...but everything about India screams MOTHER. Oh how I love the spirit of her!
so true! She has such a kind giving spirit!
Damn India....I have been here since the beginning and I love how grounded you are❤❤❤
I love her spirit ❤️
I want to like your commitment, but you 111 so I left this lol

Lucinda...what a wonderful comment. She is indeed inspirational
Beautifully said.
You said it best this is so true of india

Interviewer tried to be shady with all the relationship questions. But India handled it very gracefully. I love her❤️
TheLove2share the interviewer was sooo annoying...

From the first word she spoke, I felt genuine warmth. I needed her message this a.m. I Am Worthy. ❤💗💓

So very enlightening India Aria. Finding your spiritual center is a key element in life! Love this!!✨✨✨✨
i love india she is bless one so down to earth and humble love you much.
She would big as Beyonce if she dressed scantily & danced on all fours in every video & used explicit lyrics
Gregory Hunter uuum no she wouldn’t. 😂 Many artist are already doing that and STILL aren’t as big as Beyoncé. There’s no comparison. Each artist has their own unique talent that we get to enjoy. 🙌🏾
@@TheLove2share I was pointing out how corrupt the music industry is...look over your head, there it goes
Gregory Hunter And I was making it clear that India is absolutely NO comparison to Beyoncé. Oops.. on the floor. Pick up your face🐒
I understand and appreciate both of your point of views but if you listened to Beyonce and India, they both promotes individuality and spirits. Love each other.
interesting perspective!
Excellent interview! I have always loved the way she dresses!
We can tell she looooves🤗💛🤗 her some...INDIA 🤗❤🤗
Great interview. India is everything. Beyond talented.
She is the prime example of a person that blaze her own trail....don't follow the crowd. More need to follow that blueprint.
She is amazing her voice is the best I do not purchase music But India I purchased! You’re phenomenal! Omg Thank you for blessing me
I love her authenticity
Well I guess you figured out David Banner on the way home by the looks of the Steady Love video with him.😉

Her remark about her music teacher ***** reasons why I'm becoming a music teacher.........
My fave !!!

She is now dating Knowledge Bennett a LA artist he looks like musiq soul child

True beauty is earned, it's an aura. India is a very genuinely beautiful woman. Proud of her.
Could someone please tell me where in this video she discusses her celeb crush. Thanks

Close to the end she stated that she kissed her celebrity crush... David Banner

This host reminds me of the one and only Angie Martinez...in a 99 cent kinda way.
She reminds me a lot of myself

She thinks she’s Mandela, she obviously knows nothing about what he preached
