Quotes From O.N.E. The Duo

"There definitely is such a profound love that I have for the people of Nashville, and I say this all the time... The community is really what makes Nashville home for me, and I think the friendships I have made here are family." - Prana Supreme Diggs

Tekitha Washington

My maternal grandmother is from Texas. My paternal grandmother is from Little Rock, Arkansas. Southern food has been a staple in my life forever, and I come from a Baptist Christian household on my paternal grandparents' side. So it was all about Sunday dinner... And so, one of my favorite things is the chicken, but made in a cast-iron skillet. If it's not cast-iron, I don't think that I want it.

— Tekitha Washington

"Traveling by train to Texas and visiting our cousins in Texas was something that we did routinely.Temple, Texas, to be exact. Part of my childhood, and a part of my life, is actually built and bred in Southern culture, even though I was born in California." - Tekitha Washington
