Bittersweet. Mostly Sweet.” She also gave a brief video preview of her music to her more than 40,000 followers.
Williams also revealed that she has been writing with Matt Morris (aka Teo Bishop), who has penned songs for Christina Aguilera, Cher, Justin Timberlake, Reba McEntire and Kelly Clarkson.
