"I jumped at the opportunity to collaborate with producer David Wise and Engineer Rick Mckee on this project because I've always wanted to find a way to lend my voice for a cause. My grandmother and namesake, 'Miss Ruby,' has suffered from Dementia and Alzheimer's for years now, and it's been my deep desire to do everything I can to help eradicate the disease in my lifetime. I'm hoping the release of this single will move people, as well as raise awareness and make a big step toward a cure."
