As long as you are happy with your life, you'll have less problems.

Africa is not just about where you are born. For me, Africa is the whole continent; from south to north, to east to west.

I want to look at myself in the mirror at the end of my life and say I've done my share and I'm proud of what I've done.

Don't let anyone define you from what you live through and everything that they think you stand for. Just be proud of who you are.

I don't like the idea of something being pure. It means we have to be perfect, I don't want to be perfect.

If you don't trust the roots of the modern music in Africa, then there's hope for that music at all.

With technology today you can sing like a frog and sound good. And then when you come on stage, what do you do. Some of those artists never toured, probably just hype.
