Donna Deee: I’m eclectic… I embrace all music.
FreshMusicWorld: How do you approach evolving musically while maintaining consistency in your work?

FreshMusicWorld: What skills have become more important to you as your career has progressed?

Donna Deee: When I get some opportunities, I’ll let you know. I’m looking forward to that! ?

FreshMusicWorld: How do you think about your audience when you’re creating new material?
Donna Deee: I wonder if my audience can relate to the words I wrote, if they feel like I do, if it will move them emotionally or if they will dance and sing along.
