Knowing the struggles within the industry, Jadi was asked what would she change. "Everything. I don't really like to get into politics." Besides the politics of the music industry, she would love to work with artist who are spreading positive messages through their music. She feels the vibe of the music needs to be good.

Not only is she a singer, she is also a cancer survivor. Jadi Luc is now in 7 years remission. "My praise to God for that. I am cancer free and alive. I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lymphoma Hodgkin's." She noticed something was wrong before being diagnosed. " I felt lumps growing in my neck. I started feeling itchy hand and feet, had fevers and night sweats. I started to feel sick."

According to www.healthline.com "Hodgkin’s disease (HD) is a type of lymphoma, which is a blood cancer that starts in the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system helps the immune system get rid of waste and fight infections. HD is also called Hodgkin disease, Hodgkin lymphoma, and Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

HD originates in white blood cells that help protect you from germs and infections. These white blood cells are called lymphocytes. In people with HD, these cells grow abnormally and spread beyond the lymphatic system. As the disease progresses, it makes it more difficult for your body to fight infections.

She says she doesn't view herself as a role model, but as a survivor. Finding out she had cancer made her change her ways. She learned how to live a healthier life by eating healthy, exercising daily, drinking water, and eating no pork or meat. She loves to eaat soup.

I asked what is her motto for life since she seems so humble and positive about her situation. Her motto is, "Live, Love, Laugh, Dance and Sing" And her advice who has cancer. " Keep the faith and never give up! God is Good!" I happened to agree God is Good!
