“Don’t you get sad and lonely
You need a change from what you do all day
Ain’t no sense in all your crying
Pick it up and throw it into shape
That’s why you need, oh that’s why
This is what you need, I’ll give you what you need”
Hey, You know I am all about action and results. Listen girl, that is the only way you could work with artists. They don’t like people who talk but don’t deliver. And I guess that is how I have now been able to create results in my business. No bullshit, because talk is cheap. So […]

Hey, Did you see Glennis Grace’s version of this beautiful Kate Bush song? It’s is truly amazing. I have been following her US journey and I have to say her story (which I have only recently dived into) is quite amazing. It is a story of focus, passion, resilience and really hard work. That is […]

Remember Lauryn Hill? Girlllll, she broke barriers for female artists. She was the first to mix hip-hop with R&B and made her debut album “The miseducation of Lauryn Hill” sell more than Madonna’s. For 20 years she was the only female hip-hop artist with a number one song (Cardi B broke her record last year […]

Dust yourself off, and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again”
Remember Aaliyah? I remember the day she passed away, really I can still see myself standing where I was when I heard the news. It was August 25, 2001 and that day I was going to work with an artist at Lowlands festival. We were all in shock at the festival. Why? Because she was only […]

“Cause a rose is still a rose Baby, girl, you’re still a flower He can’t lead you and then take you Make you and then break you Darlin’, you hold the power”
Last week we lost a queen. And for once I was lost for words. All I could do was listen to her songs and feel my emotions with every one of them. The lyrics to this one kept going on in my head. I consciously fell in love with Aretha in 2003 when I entered […]

Yep, She is turning 60 today, so we have to talk about: Madonna. This woman is an icon and through the years she has taught us so much about what it means to be a well-known brand. Her way is an ‘either you love her or hate her way’ but girlll it made her really […]

We need to talk about diversity. I used the album titel of Solange Knowles because it sort of reminds me of a conversation I had with someone about us women demanding a seat at the table when it comes to higher positions. Then I saw that feminist movement De Bovengrondse changed the names of 12 streets in Amsterdam to […]

What a feeling Bein’s believin’ I can have it all Now I’m dancing for my life Take your passion And make it happen Pictures come alive You can dance right through your life Remember FAME? The series I mean, not the movies. I used to love this song ‘What a feeling’ by Irene Cara. It gave […]
Madonna once sang: “Music makes the people come together Music makes the bourgeoisie and the rebel” And this is the truth. I saw this video recently of this Saudi woman rapping her way about finally being able to drive her own car. And it just made me think about how we are all affected by music, […]
“Mamma mia, here I go again My my, how can I resist you? Mamma mia, does it show again My my, just how much I’ve missed you?” Here we go again! 10 years after the first Mamma Mia film was released in 2008, they released a sequel this week. I was invited to see the […]
