“Paula is truly a gifted songbird, rarely do you find an artist with such superior talent and composure. Her vocals are filled with positive vibration on "Relax" and "Turn Around" songs. She is like the female version of Bob Marley and Toots Hibbert in one, full of wisdom and lyrics to inspire the mind."
