Thank you for sharing this very relatable story Erica. I really felt the pain of being in someone elses shadow. I definately can't sing but I've always had a problem with my speaking voice because so many made fun of the way I talked. The lack of confidence brought upon stuttering and stammering. It's ironic that people would say I sing my words so when I began rapping I hid my speaking voice in my flow. I was one of those rappers who's rap and speaking voice is different. Speaking on video was my biggest fear and I finally overcame it by creating vlogs on my you tube channel. My voice is getting stronger and stronger. Like a bird at dawn I pray that you once agin find YOUR song.
