There’s so much power in the words that we speak, the words that we’re thinking [and the words that we’re hearing]” that. So I said well how can I support myself first in continuously using these affirmations that are helping me, and have good feeling music to go with it to help me to really get it into my body. So that it becomes like the tunes that get stuck in my head that I don’t want there, how do I get these affirmations stuck in my head so that it works for me and that’s where HipNoticHop was born. My very, very first affirmation track I recorded for me. It’s called I Am That. And when I recorded it I was like wow this is powerful. And I shared it with a couple of friends. Then people would listen and be like oh my god can you make one about relationships, can you make one about… and I was like Yes! Yes! Yes! And I realized there was a need. And where there’s a need…there you go, there’s a business. And it’s what I love to do. In inspiring others I keep myself inspired. MMIA: Do you have any favorites on the album? Minista: This isn’t fair because my favorite is actually not released yet. I love them all though. Courageous really transformed my life; I can feel it living inside of myself. Follow Minista Jazz @ministajazz But I have this new one called Glow to Bed and it really supports me. Sometimes I have sleepless nights where I’m up and I realize that I’m not releasing everything before I go to sleep and so I created this particular track just for those purposes. It has worked wonders for me. Like I glow to bed every night now. I can’t not glow to bed. Because I realized that I can be a Sparkstar all day long but when it gets dark and I’m with me and my thoughts I’m like uh-oh I need it even in my sleep. It’s a constant process; you don’t just do it then cut it off. I go to bed now so peacefully and wake up so clear and ready to set my intentions so that’s my favorite right now. My absolute favorite. It’s perfect. My producer mixed it perfectly. MMIA: What is your motto for life? Minista: Everything in life is unfolding in perfect order. I have it tatted on my arm because it supports me in being easy. When I think that things aren’t going right, I get to realize that there is a higher, more intelligent, more beautiful, more miraculous, more amazing power that knows and orchestrates all things thus all things are all good. And in my limited understanding things may seem like they’re not working out but they’ve never not worked out up till this point. Right?! Because we’re here, I’m breathing, you’re breathing, blood’s flowing through your veins and you have everything you need in this moment to have the next moment. MMIA: Where is HipNoticHop currently available? Minista: HopNoticHop is exclusively available on my website www.ministajazz. com. Some tracks are available on iTunes but I want you to buy it directly from my website because when you buy it from my website you support me directly in being able to create more affirmations and you get the information that goes along with HipNoticHop.
