On Facebook, she writes of “Sober,” “I aspire to write a song like ‘Sober.’ A little openness: When I first heard this song and the first time I played it I cried because the pain in this song is so real. And whether you know me and my story or not recovery can be a process and self-love is a journey. I want to let everyone know I am ALWAYS here to talk. (Also I know a lot of people say that but I mean it, even if I don’t know you, kind of know you, etc). We have to spread the love and support… everyone needs it and is DESERVING.”

Gabrielle also plays the guitar and starred in a music video for Janine and the Mixtape’s song “You Deserve It” in which she played the new girlfriend in a love triangle.
