I'd say, if you want to be an artist, start with your art start with making great music and it will, hopefully, eventually cut through all of the nonsense that is out there.

More quotes by Queen Latifah
I love music. I've just been putting studios together, here and at my house in New Jersey and so I can always make music and express my ideas and work with people to fine tune them to where they need to be.
Queen Latifah
If I ran into a 19-year-old version of myself, I'd just tell her to live, full out. I might also tell her to go ahead and have a few babies and not worry about the timing of it.
Queen Latifah
It was a very vulnerable time going from being insecure about my body and who I am to becoming comfortable with me. I had to tune out what the hell everybody else had to say about who I was. When I was able to do that, I felt free.
Queen Latifah
Sometimes I pray when I really feel like I need God to help me with something, and sometimes we just have conversations. We just kick it.
Queen Latifah
To step into acting was not that difficult a transition to make. What was difficult was the work and the practice that went into becoming good at it, because I hadn't had any training.
Queen Latifah
My mom will make me walk the dogs or take out the trash when I go home.
Queen Latifah
For me, it might sound cliche, but beauty for me really does start on the inside. It's like a state of mind, a state of love if you will. Then, whatever you can do on the outside is all like a bonus.
Queen Latifah
The movie I've seen a million times is 'Steel Magnolias,' directed by Herbert Ross, starring Sally Field and Julia Roberts.
Queen Latifah
Look at people for an example, but then make sure to do things your way. Surround yourself with positive people.
Queen Latifah
When I was growing up, there were so many musicals you could watch. I like the fantasy of musicals and I love music.
Queen Latifah
I don't have any regrets. If I could have talked to my 19- or 20-year-old self, I would have said, 'You're going to be fine. It ain't that serious!'
Queen Latifah
I have always felt strongly about empowering women. I'm living proof that, with confidence and by believing in yourself, you can accomplish any goal.
Queen Latifah
I write pretty often. I have a home studio. Music is what I do for fun. I never get tired of it, so to take a break from [TV and movies], I would go make some music.
Queen Latifah
It's great to be able to employ people who other people wouldn't consider viable employees.
Queen Latifah
Having a belief in God, being able to find joy, despite your circumstances or put yourself outside of yourself, and stop looking inwards and look outwards a little bit really helps to carry through tough times. Giving makes you feel better.
Queen Latifah
I know people who are twice as creative as I am, twice as smart, but they didn't do anything because they feared going into a room and opening their mouths. My parents told me to truly accomplish things in my life, there would be times I would have to stand alone. It may be scary, but that's what it requires.
Queen Latifah
For myself music definitely informs my emotions. And I can literally play a song that will get me where I need to be emotionally. I don't have to think about the tragic things that happened in my life or the greatest things that happened in my life.
Queen Latifah
The good thing about movies is that they're subjective. You can connect to different themes depending on your own perspective.
Queen Latifah
You do silly things for love sometimes and not-so-smart things for love.
Queen Latifah
Be bold, be brave enough to be your true self.
Queen Latifah
