“Chun-Li has been certified GOLD. Thank you to everyone for your support. got on the mic & made this song up in 5 mins just having fun @ 4 in the morning. Then took about an hour to put words to the melody. Released it 2 days later. We captured it all on video. Thinking about putting that part of the documentary out early so you guys can get a real glimpse into my world. Love you so much & can’t wait to share this album with all of you who’ve waited so patiently & been so supportive.”
