I couldn't imagine having to write a paper and have to think about what song I am going to sing.

I wouldn't mind doing Broadway, but I am definitely trying to get a album out there first.

I wouldn't compare myself to any past Idol contestant, because I don't feel like I am like any of them. Maybe stories are cool but my story is different from most people's story. I don't like to compare myself to other people, I like to just be me.

If my life was a song the title would be 'Naima'.

I prefer to sing in the shower because the acoustics make you sound great, baby.

It's funny because a lot of people that know me as a dancer, don't know that I'm a singer, and a lot of people that know I can sing don't know I can dance. And so, I feel like at some point I have to show them both and really be able to display it and showcase it, and put that out there.
