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.

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. You get “The Spark Sspot”
and you get introduced to a whole bunch
of awesome people that I celebrate.
