“I just kept getting doors slammed in my face and doors slammed in my face when I was trying to creatively collaborate with people,” she said. “And for years, I took it so personally. I just was so bereaved and I felt so excluded and outcast and untalented. And now, I almost laugh when I look back and I realize, ‘Oh my gosh, God was protecting me the whole time. Every time I called an artist and said, ‘Do you want to collaborate on this song that Gregory and I wrote?' ‘No. No. I don't even want to hear it. I don't even want to have the conversation about it.' And in my grief and in my loneliness and in my desire for connection, it just felt so painful. And I look back now and I'm like, ‘Oh gosh, thank you so much God for protecting me.'”

An aside: I've always thought of Sonny Rollins as the jazz equivalent of Buddy Guy.
