As we come to the end of 2013 and I look back on everything that I have accomplished in the past several years, it really amazes me how far God has brought me not only as an artist but as a human being. My sister and I have had our ups and downs, our peaks, our struggles, our fun, our doubts, good days, bad days and just all around a crazy life. At the end of the day we will always stick together no matter what obstacle gets thrown our way and love and support one another. These past couple years have been really difficult and yes it may seem like we haven’t done much but if there is one thing I have really learned to be in 2013, it’s to be patient. Patience is a virtue and good things come to those who wait. Paris and I have been waiting a good year to tell everyone that we will not be continuing as a group. It’s not a bad thing at all! We both on the same day came to each other and expressed the same desires in our hearts to become solo artists. We both agreed that it would be for the best and the healthy thing for us to do to grow as individuals and find our own voice in this industry. It’s been hard because we haven’t been able to let anyone know and voice our struggles about what we are going through legally to friends, family and fans, one because we didn’t want to bring anybody down (misery loves company) and two, legally we were obligated to keep our mouths shut. We have really isolated ourselves from anything and anyone because we have been burned so many times by the ones who we thought we could put our trust in and confide in, even family members and people who we have been friends with for a very very long time. God has definitely lifted the veil off of my eyes to help me see who is really for me and who’s really against me. I’ve always been one to believe the best in people but after going through what my sister and I have been through for the past couple years, it’s really hard to let anybody in. I felt the need to share this with friends, family and our ever so faithful fans who have been with us since the beginning of our careers. I am letting you in and having faith and hope that you will support and be for me as I will be for you. So with that said, I am looking forward to this New Year and the future Destinee Monroe. Where I'm going to be, what I’m going to do, how I will grow, laugh, love, succeed and just let the purpose that I know I am called for flourish and be everything that I know it will be and more. I’m so grateful for the team that God is building around me that shares my same vision, to allow me to be who I was called to be and not an industry puppet. I promise you, it will be worth the wait. Wishing all of you a happy New Year and that all of your dreams and desires get fulfilled to the fullest. Now let’s do this #2014!
Much love, Destinee
