“I don’t have the money for publicity and that’s what I am saying. Emerald’s (her daughter) school fees is there.

“it’s like I have ten things laid out for me and every single time, its always been my music, my music that is taking the bulk of my money.

“I am not willing to put money there anymore,” she said.
