When I'm writing my album, it's totally my world. Even though it's myself and another producer creating the project, Conceptually it's more under my power and on my own terms. At the same time, it's a different type of pressure because I'm ultimately speaking, I'm solely responsible for the end result.

I am not a good decision maker; that's one of the things I don't like about myself.

No one tests the depth of a river with both feet.

I also like different records of mine for creative purposes and metaphorically wise.

By going and coming, a bird weaves its nest.

I think my motto is to always remain focused on what it is that youre trying to accomplish.

I have a tremendous amount of respect for military families. To have to worry about your loved ones and still try and live a normal life is extremely hard.
