I was kicked out of high school in my senior year at age 17, and soon thereafter, @CliveJDavis hired me and took a BIG bet on my talent. 😳 Last week, he turned 90 (!!) and we honored him at two legendary birthday galas here in NYC. If you’re on the come-up, and in need of a bit of motivation today, here’s the speech that I gave honoring him, which speaks to my journey, too. Shoutout to my sister Alicia Keys for the adlibs in the background. :) Find your own path, value mentorship, march to the beat of your own drum, and the rest will follow. ✨🙏🏾
