Dora Smith in the You Better Think Twice video

The artist behind the message

A voice worth returning to.

Dora Smith is an independent R&B and hip-hop artist from Pascagoula, Mississippi, raised between Moss Point, Mississippi, and Beaufort, North Carolina.

She began singing at three years old. After years of family, motherhood, and life experience, she returned to the dream that never left her.

Every song carries a piece of the story.

Dora’s music is rooted in love, heartbreak, healing, self-worth, resilience, and learning to choose yourself again. Her official merchandise takes that same message beyond the music, into the things you wear and live with every day.

“You Better Think Twice” is about recognizing your value and finding the strength to protect it. That belief is at the heart of I Choose Peace.
