Chart topping R&B star Vivian Green is Vivid on her new album out now from Make Noise records. She’s survived the Emotional Rollercoaster of her 20s and now the performer makes an upbeat record meant to empower listener through the ups and downs of life. As Green told Vibe, “Life has ups and downs, and when you’re experiencing the downs, I think the point is to come out of them stronger, better, and wiser. I’ve taken each flux in my life, and I’ve done that. I’ve been able to walk away from the difficult times being strong, being better, being wiser, and being grateful for those experiences because I know if I didn’t go through X, Y, or Z that I would not be who I am or where I am now.”
