When you're young that's when you feel like you can change the world. Then you get older and you buy a house and have kids, and you don't want to be so bold anymore.

As an artist I write about the world I want to live in. And as a musician and someone who is in the public eye, I think you have this responsibility to influence people. So I try influence people to live from their heart and make conscious decisions , and I try just inspire people to make positive change. That's purely the reason I do it. I want to see the world get better, you know?

I think the two biggest issues are world hunger and health, and all the things that stem from bad food.

I'm a big believer in that old cliché of thinking globally and acting locally.

I think most artists would agree, it's one thing to be playing in front of a crowd that's loving it, it's another thing to add cameras, but it's a really cool trade off to be on television.

It's cool to be healthy now! It's cool to, like, drink fresh juices and drink Kombucha and all that stuff.

I want to write songs with meaning. I have high standards for my work.
