Nicole C. Mullen - December 4, 2004
Here are some of the highlights from the Interview.
Tommy: You’ve got a new CD out,
Everyday People?
Nicole C. Mullen: Yes...
Tommy: What does the album mean to you?
Nicole C. Mullen: Really it’s just a conglomeration
of stories from different everyday heroes that I’ve come across
doing the singing thing. And just wonderful people, you know from the
7-year old girl named Brianna, her story, to the woman trying to rise
after being abused, to the guy trying to get along, trying to get by in
life and seeing people overcome in the midst of it. It was seeing ordinary
people doing extraordinary things by the power of God so I took time,
stepped back and wrote about it and put it out there and hopefully people
will be able to see themselves or someone they know in it and at the same
time, I think that there’s something for everybody.
Tommy: So it’s actually more like
a diary of things that you’ve seen throughout your life.
Nicole C. Mullen: Exactly, exactly and really everyday
heroes that we can so easily pass by. I was influenced probably the most
by a lady that was in my church growing up. She never recorded, her name
was Cecilia, never became famous, but she sang in our church choir, and
to me she was just like the cat’s meow. And she spent time with
me, she invested in my life, so it’s everyday people that do extraordinary
things. They’re the reasons why people are succeeding all over the
place. So I waned to take a minute and say thank you to them and tip a
hat to them at the same time.
