“Everything you believe you can have, God sends towards you,” says <br />the actress and singer who released her latest EP on November 4.<br /><br />Coco Jones is making the transition from child star to adult household name <br />look very easy. The actress, who got her start in the Disney Channel movie <br />Let it Shine in 2012, now stars on the Peacock series Bel Air. And not only is <br />her acting career taking off but so is her journey as a music artist.<br />On November 4, Jones released her fourth EP, What I didn’t Tell You, <br />and it landed at the no. 1 spot on Apple Music’s R&B Soul Charts.<br /><br />“I was all up and through social media crying because I used to place <br />my picture in a number one thing and put that in my vision board so I was so<br />beside myself when I saw that for real,” Jones told ESSENCE at the American <br />Music Awards on November 20. “I was so grateful and I’m still so grateful <br />and I just can’t believe it. I’m like, it’s time, you know? When you pray for <br />something and it’s answered it’s like, let me switch up my prayers.”<br />Jones is big on prayer and manifestation, and the recent successes <br />she’s enjoyed as a singer and actress have allowed her to desire even bigger<br />things for her next season, she shared.<br /><br />“Everything you believe you can have, God sends toward you. I think <br />there was a time when I had these big dreams as a kid and things just <br />started going left and the dreams got smaller and safer. And then, honestly, <br />it was really a miracle that I started becoming relevant and talked about <br />again and that made me dream bigger again,” she said. “Now that I’m here, <br />I’m like, why would I ever doubt anything again? If God can get me here, I <br />shouldn’t be doubting anything.”
