>> Tati: IT’S TIME FOR MUSIC
MONDAY.
AS WE CONTINUE TO ADAPT TO THE
NEW NORMAL AND PRACTICE SOCIAL
DISTANCING, WE’RE KEEPING
MUSIC MONDAYS GOING WITH A NEW
TWIST.
OUR TALENTED FRIENDS WILL
CONTINUE TO JOIN IN ON THE FUN
BY SHARING THEIR MUSIC FROM
THEIR HOME STUDIOS.
AND JOINING US TODAY IS A
FAMILIAR FACE TO THE SHOW.
YOU’VE SEEN HER PERFORM AT THE
FORD FIREWORKS AND AMERICA’S
THANKSGIVING PARADE.
ANGELA DAVIS IS WITH US.
HOW ARE YOU?
>> HI, HOW ARE YOU?
I’M GREAT!
>> Tati: IT’S GREAT TO HAVE
YOU BACK ON THE SHOW.
HOW ARE YOU DURING QUARANTINE,
ESPECIALLY AS A NEW MOM?
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I HAVE BEEN SURPRISINGLY
ENJOYING THE QUARANTINE
BECAUSE IT ALLOWED ME EXTRA
TIME TO BE WITH MY DAUGHTER.
I WAS ON MATERNITY LEAVE OF
COURSE WHEN THE QUARANTINE
FIRST BEGAN AND THEN I JUST
CONTINUED TO WORK FROM HOME
AND I’VE BEEN ABLE TO WATCH
HER THRIVE AND GROW, AND IT’S
BEEN GREAT.
AND I GET TO DO THINGS I
DIDN’T HAVE TIME BEFORE TO DO.
>> Tati: SHE’S ADORABLE!
THAT’S A PICTURE OF PENELOPE.
AND YOU’VE BEEN GIVING VOCAL
LESSONS TO KIDS AND ADULTS.
HOW HAVE YOU BEEN DOING THAT.
>> I STARTED DOING THEM IN MY
HOUSE BEFORE QUARANTINE, AND
THEN ONCE THE QUARANTINE
HAPPENED, OH, MAN, DO I HAVE
TO STOP DOING THIS?
WE HAVE ZOOM AND FACETIME AND
ALL THESE AMAZING TOOLS.
SO I LET THEM KNOW WE COULD DO
IT VIRTUALLY.
YES, OF COURSE.
AND I EVEN PICKED UP SOME NEW
STUDENTS BECAUSE WOULD I SAY,
USE THIS DOWN TIME TO YOUR
ADVANTAGE BECAUSE IF YOU’VE
ALWAYS WANTED TO SING AND BE A
BETTER SINGER, WHY NOT GET
VOCAL LESSONS NOW, THAN WHEN
YOU COME OUT OF QUARANTINE,
YOU’LL BE A SUPERSTAR.
[LAUGHTER]
>> Tati: AND NOW MORE PEOPLE
HAVE ACCESS TO YOU.
TELL US ABOUT THE SONG WE’RE
ABOUT TO HEAR?
>> THE SONG WE’RE GONNA HEAR
IS CALLED VALUE OF A WOMAN
WRITTEN BY MYSELF AND MY
AMAZING MOTHER, AN AMAZING
WRITER.
AND SHE BASICALLY SAID WE NEED
TO WRITE A SONG ABOUT FEMALE
EMPOWERMENT.
I SAID, THAT’S A GREAT IDEA,
AND SHE STARTED WRITING IT AND
WE COLLABORATED ON IT.
AND IT WAS BORN.
I WANTED TO MAKE A VIDEO FOR
IT, SO THAT’S WHAT THE
QUARANTINE ALLOWED ME TO DO.
70-PLUS WOMEN FROM DETROIT,
AND THEY WERE MORE THAN
WILLING TO PROVIDE THEIR
PHOTOS, AND THAT’S UP ON
YOUTUBE BUT I’LL BE PERFORMING
IT LIVE TODAY.
>> Tati: ANGELA, THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR BEING WITH US.
WE APPRECIATE YOU, AS ALWAYS.
AND WE’LL LET THE SONG TAKE US
TO THE BREAK.
