Because her parents were concerned about her education, Hilson and her siblings did not attend a school in the area, noting that “they sent us off for an hour to get to school every day.” It was critical for us to preserve the life that they had produced.”
Hilson was inspired to pursue a musical career at the age of 12 after watching television talent competitions such as Star Search and Showtime at the Apollo.
Her mother then hired a piano teacher to teach her piano, but Hilson wanted to be a singer, so she “transformed those sessions into singing lessons, accompanying the teacher on the piano.”
