I have always been mainstream. It's so weird, because I don't see it as something negative at all. So many people see it as something negative.

I always just sit down at the piano and make the main hook—what I want the track to be about melodically—and then I’ll build everything else around that. But growing up, I did not play any instruments.

I travel with a bunch of battery packs because I don't always have time to charge my phone at the hotel room when I'm traveling. I always change them, so I never run out of battery.

My dad has always been a big Ray Charles fan, and I've grown up listening to all kinds of music.

I love DJing, I do. I love everything that comes with it; it's fun and it's kind of glamorous.

I think I am a pretty good judge of character in general and try to surround myself with the best people I can.

I have a hard time writing music when I'm on tour.
