"I’ve come across a lot of race issues because I’m white, which was a real big shock to me,” says Stone. “I think the whole idea about music is that it has no colour. That’s what I’ve been saying and I wish people would just get it.”

The long-anticipated S-Curve Records release consists of ten tracks, none of which are her own songs. Instead, it was decided that she would release cover songs, mostly of lesser-known Miami seventies soul tunes.

Unlike most artists making urban music these days, this blonde-haired beauty doesn’t have any interest in parading around on your TV screen. “They want me to do a video for ‘Fell in Love with a Boy,’ [White Stripes cover but I don’t really want to do it. I’m not an actress. I’m a singer,” she says, “I don’t know how to be anything else. I will learn though. I have to learn, whether I want to or not. It’s not really because I’m worried about the cameras, because that’s kind of selfish. I just don’t think music should be about image, and I think videos make it about image.”
