Judith Hill is paying tribute to the sacrifice and fight of the powerful women who raised her. The Grammy winner (and Prince protégé) debuts the video for “Dame de la Lumière,” written about her mother and grandmother’s perseverance, with Rolling Stone Tuesday.
“Dame De La Lumière speaks to the strength and resilience of women who have endured hardships and have come out of the fire victorious and unstoppable,” she says of the track.
“I remember how they overcame the impossible and survived because they were determined to be there for their families,” she adds in a press release. “Standing on their shoulders, I carry on. I close my eyes and see the faces of every woman in history who turned weeds into leaves of evergreen. They stand taller than the mountains. If they can do it, I can do it. Bad times make strong women! This is my mantra.”
