Marques Houston Quotes

  • My manager Chris Stokes has been my mentor since I first started out in this business and when we were preparing to do the album, we agreed that it should be an opportunity for me to show my strength as a singer.
  • It’s not too ‘left’ from what I’ve done before with IMX. The difference is that this album is more about my own personal feelings and situations I’ve been in.
