Nobodysmiling.com : What’s been good with Adina Howard lately?
Adina Howard : What’s been good with me lately? The album is doing well, people are liking what they hear which is a beautiful thing and I’m living up to what I do, I’m being blessed.
Nobodysmiling.com : The album is called “Private Show” how you come up with that title?
Adina Howard : “Private Show” came about because I was in New York one day doing a show and a set of producers came up to me. After my show they wanted me too come into the studio and listen to a song. They was like “We had this song I think you would be perfect for”. I was like “Cool no problem” and it happened to be called “Private Show”. I fell in love with the song and we didn’t get to include it in the project, because I liked the title of it and what it meant. I was like you know what that is going to be the next title for the album.
Nobodysmiling.com : As far as the album what are some of the subjects you talking about as far as sex and everything?
Adina Howard : Of course I got to have that, you got to set the mood for the bedroom, but we deal with subject matters and relationships where I find out my man is cheating with my best friend. There is another song called “I Forgive You”, because some of us women.. when a man is being honest we will forgive him for his sins [laughs]. The song is called “I Forgive You”, because it’s like you screwed up but I forgive you for that. You know it’s about cheating where he came to me and said “I have to be honest I been cheating on you and I don’t want to be without you” Just because I forgive you does not mean you can go out there and do it again.
Nobodysmiling.com : How you feel about people that cheat anyway?
Adina Howard : My thing is this.. if you as an individual male or female, if your not handling your business within a relationship, hopefully there is some communication and if the individual that has an issue approached you and said “My needs are not being met and I really need this to to be taken care of. If the person is not taking care of their business with the extra relationship on the side I don’t bug off of that. If I’m not stepping up to the plate and somebody approach me about handling my business in a relationship and I don’t then it is what it is. I’m not one to judge anybody, because you know I live in a glass-house just like anybody's house so I’m not gonna throw stones. If you cheat you have to deal with the consequences.
Nobodysmiling.com : So you do think there are legitimate reasons why people do it?
Adina Howard : Absolutely, not to say that it’s right to do it, but people can justify why they do it.
Nobodysmiling.com : Alright so has Adina Howard ever cheated before?
Adina Howard : Have I ever cheated before let me think? Um no [Sounding Unsure] nothing I can recall. I usually put myself in situations where I do and have as I choose.
Nobodysmiling.com : Okay, but it is kind of funny you had to think about it?
Adina Howard : Yeah I had to think about it, but I’ve been single for so long. I’ve been single for a very long time.
Nobodysmiling.com : So with that being said you telling me you single right now?
Adina Howard : Absolutely.
Nobodysmiling.com : Why?
Adina Howard : Because I want to be single. Why do I have to be in a relationship?
Nobodysmiling.com : Hey I guess you have to do what’s best for you.
Adina Howard : For me I am one of those individuals... I don’t feel like I have to be in a relationship to be happy. I don’t have to be in a relationship to feel secure, I love me, I love my company, and my company is the best company I ever had. I’m not rushing into a relationship, because one its time consuming. I just don’t have a whole lot of time, energy, and patience for individuals. I just like to be with myself and focus on me, because I have to get my life together in areas I feel like there are some things that need to be fixed. For me until I feel like I’m right within myself in the other areas of my life I don’t want to bring anybody into my life. I want to make sure that I’m right I don’t want to half-ass do it.
Nobodysmiling.com : But you do have a lot of dudes that come at you right?
Adina Howard : Yeah and a lot of them aren’t coming at me properly. A lot of them are not coming at me properly they coming at me with some BS. They don’t even have themselves together and for me it’s like if you bringing mess to the table then it’s not going to be a good situation. I’m not just going to date anybody, that just doesn’t make any sense. I’m too old for that, my twenties are over with where you can just play around and just really not get down.
Nobodysmiling.com : So with all that being said what does Adina Howard love most about sex?
Adina Howard : What do I love most about sex? I enjoy the intimacy, you know the connection that is made when two people come together. It’s passionate, it’s a feeling to me that’s better than any drug.
Nobodysmiling.com : You said it’s better than any drug?
Adina Howard : Yeah.
Nobodysmiling.com : Explain that?
Adina Howard : It’s a natural high and you know I smoked my weed, popped the pills but that’s as far as it goes [laughs]. There is nothing like a natural high you know and sex brings it out.
Nobodysmiling.com : Alright so let me ask you this, what you love most about men?
Adina Howard : Oh my God, what do I love most about men that’s a good question [big pause]. I never really thought about it.
Nobodysmiling.com : Yeah?
Adina Howard : Yeah that’s really something I really have to think about, because I love men. Aside from the physical challenge that men can bring about and the securities they bring if their on point. Honestly I can’t really explain it, what is so special about ya’ll. It’s like when God created you he didn’t make any mistakes. Ya’ll just great to have along the way that’s all.
Nobodysmiling.com : The last time we talked you said threesomes were boring can you explain why?
Adina Howard : I don’t like to share [laughs]. I’m a selfish individual and I’ve done it before and it just didn’t do anything for me. I was not moved by it, I don’t know why it was just one of those things. When I’m one on one with someone I’m able to give all of my attention and energy. To have to split that with someone else and wait your turn or try to make it work that doesn’t move me, it’s boring.
Nobodysmiling.com : So Adina is stingy when it comes to the sex?
Adina Howard : I’m not gonna say stingy, because by no means I’m stingy I just don’t like to share. If it’s gonna be me it’s gonna be me and one other person. I want to focus on that person and give them all that I have to offer. If you want to go do somebody else by all means handle your business, but I’m a get my time in first.
Nobodysmiling.com : So when it’s one on one you take care of everything?
Adina Howard : Aw, I handle mine.
Nobodysmiling.com : Alright so what makes a good sex partner?
Adina Howard : Someone who knows what their doing first and foremost. That’s important someone who is into it, someone who appreciates it, enjoys it, and can bring a few tricks to the table. Someone who is willing to share themselves and not just be the receiver.
Nobodysmiling.com : What you like most Adina, giving or receiving?
Adina Howard : I’m a giver, I enjoy giving. I enjoy giving however I am not one to turn down receiving a fabulous gift from an individual.
Nobodysmiling.com : [Laughs], at least you keep it real.
Adina Howard : Hey I don’t know any other way to do it. You have to be honest about it, you have to really say this is what it is.
Nobodysmiling.com : You ever had bad sex?
Adina Howard : Who hasn’t, who hasn’t had it? Absolutely, there are people out there that just have no clue. I happened to run into a couple that just don’t have a clue. That’s like going out to dinner or buying a book or some music. You might think first it looks good, but when you get into it’s kind of like “Oh” your actually better than you are.
Nobodysmiling.com : So it depends.. sometimes?
Adina Howard : Have you ever had bad sex?
Nobodysmiling.com : Hey I’m asking all the questions [laughs].
Adina Howard : So clearly that must be a yes.
Nobodysmiling.com : [Laughs], Yeah you can say that.
Adina Howard : [Laughs].
Nobodysmiling.com : Besides all the sex talk who you feeling in the game right now?
Adina Howard : Oh my goodness I’m feeling Ne-Yo, Maroon 5, John Legend, Rihanna, it’s so many people. I’m feeling Tank I’m feeling his cut, I don’t listen to a whole lot of radio it’s difficult for me to do that to tell you who I’m really feeling if I’m not listening to the radio. I pretty much get in my own zone and listen to what I want to.
Nobodysmiling.com: With you being in the game for a minute what you think people will remember most about Adina Howard?
Adina Howard : The sex, because that’s all we been talking about since you interviewed me. Sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, [laughs] unfortunately. I don’t want to say unfortunately, but it’s so much more to me than “Freak Like Me” and sex. I go much deeper than that, but if that’s all you want then that’s what I’ll give you. Generally I don’t volunteer information I’m not one of those individuals who just runs off at the mouth and just starting telling my business. I want you to be specific and ask me questions otherwise you gonna get what you gonna get.
Nobodysmiling.com : Did I do a good job in asking you some questions?
Adina Howard : You ask me a lot of sex questions.
Nobodysmiling.com : I always wanted to know what was good with it though.
Adina Howard : [Laughs] why you want to know what’s good with it?
Nobodysmiling.com : Hey, because I grew up listening to you.
Adina Howard : Oh okay, so you want to know if it was real?
Nobodysmiling.com : Yeah!
Adina Howard : Oh I got you, hey it’s nothing wrong with curiosity.
Nobodysmiling.com : They say don’t believe everything you see on TV.
Adina Howard : Don’t believe everything you hear either.
Nobodysmiling.com : Yeah you can say that, but how you feel being remembered by sex all the time?
Adina Howard : To me it doesn’t bother me, I feel it will do others a good service to only know me by that for the simple fact that it’s so much more to me than that. If that’s all they really want to know then that’s all their really gonna get. Eventually it will switch over, but what I do for a living serves a purpose. At least I’m not promoting violence and being disrespectful to men or women. I’m not calling anybody hoes, bitches, fuck them ni**as, and all that stuff. At least I know that I help create life and not take life.
Nobodysmiling.com : Well at least you talking about something most people like?
Adina Howard : Yeah how about that and as far as I can see it most people enjoy it. I had plenty individuals approach me and say they made several kids off of my music. That really is a blessing to hear that life was created from something that I put out there, I’m grateful for that.
Nobodysmiling.com : Without the sex talk tell me some things people don’t know about Adina Howard?
Adina Howard : That I’m an awesome cook, I’m a neat freak, I tell people all the time. The biggest freak that I am is a control freak and neatness goes along with that cause I’m constantly cleaning up. I’m controlling my environment to make sure it fits my needs. I’m a very spiritual person, I was raised in the church and a lot of people don’t know that. I started singing at seven and my mother pushed for me to have fellows at church. People be like “What happened, how did you go from singing in a church to doing freak like me and T-shirt and panties”? I’m like “Well the Lord created sex and if he had a problem with what I’m singing and doing I wouldn’t be so successful at it”. I am chosen to serve a purpose so that’s just one thing that people don’t know about me that I’m very, very spiritual.
Nobodysmiling.com : So I guess that purpose was to help other people make kids.
Adina Howard : Even though I do what I do people see me and say “You know what she still has faith and still loves the Lord”. She is comfortable in her own skin and doesn’t allow what others say about her tear her, because her relationship with God is alright. People do what they have to do to make money I’m not hurting anybody in any way of form and I’m not being disrespectful in anyway or any form. I’m not telling people to go out there being promiscuous and be unsafe I’m just providing music to set the mood for that moment.
Nobodysmiling.com : Hey you got to say what you have to say!
Adina Howard : And I gotta make my money so it’s like would you rather have me slinging CD’s or slinging dope? I personally prefer CD’s, I personally prefer my music.
Nobodysmiling.com : Well at least you hustling legally?
Adina Howard : Hey how about it!
Nobodysmiling.com : Alright Adina Howard we appreciate the interview anything to say to the readers of NOBODYSMILING.COM?
