I've made this decision not to talk to the press about anything that's gone on in my life, but just to write music about it. They can interpret it themselves.

Music is real; it's something you can touch and feel. It moves you - the bass literally shakes you and rocks you from the inside. Music makes your soul feel amazing while you're performing it. It's not air, it's not wind, it's not anything like that. It's solid. It's thick. It's like summertime in New York.

I'd always been treated like an object, not like a human.

The fact of the matter is I'm 21 now. I stay home. I feed my dogs. I don't really go out. I work.

I can't change the world. I have to fix me.

In my old age I've come to find that if you respect other people, you feel better about yourself.

Music makes your soul feel amazing while you're performing it.
