Ms. Issa: Yeah it has a lot to do with everything you know…I mean Latinos are making their way into the industry and doing collaborations with hip hop artists and it’s helping me make a name for myself in the in the industry…I have a lot of urban beats on my tracks and I’m hoping to pave the way for my Filipino side and I know Apple from Black Eye Peas he has some Tagalog tracks on his cd…I want to be able to do that on my next cd because this time around I really didn’t have a say on my cd…

S1: Is there anyone else that you are going to have shine on your album?

Ms. Issa: I’m happy that I got Jim Jones on the album because he’s hot right now…And he did his thing on the track “Let Me Be the One”…

S1: Any last words for the young females coming up or if you just want to address anything in particular, what’s good?

Ms. Issa: I’m just going to say that a lot of females in this industry are not taken seriously because a lot of people want to take advantage of you especially if you are a good looking person and you have talent…People will try and steer you the wrong way instead of try and help you achieve your goal…The best thing that you can do is just hire a bunch of good positive people that have the knowledge of the industry…And just keep pushing and pushing your way thru the door and don’t take no for an answer and just keep doing it, cause your gonna get a lot of no’s before you get a yes and it’ll be worth it…I wanna thank everyone from Myspace and you for taking your time for this interview…

S1: Thank you for blessing us with your presence and it doesn’t hurt to say it again “Hurt Me No More” on Bungalow/Universal records check it out and homegirl we wish you nothing but the best you look great and I’m sure the cd is going to do well and enjoy the ride okay mama!!!
