I hope at some point in my career when my name is mentioned, someone will say "Oh yeah he has a good song!" I'd be happy with that.

My fans are the best in the world! They've grown up with me and stayed with me through this entire journey.

I listen to all kinds of songs. There's something to be learned from every type of music and from the one making it, whether it's pop or jazz or hip-hop.

I kinda went back to that period between '88 and '94 where I felt like I was the most creative, without being hindered by powers that be. I was no longer going to try to hinder myself to what I thought was going to be on the radio.

I'm never satisfied with what I do.

I decided I am not going to say things I do not mean anymore.

I hate the pigeonholing that's happened in the music business in the last 30 years.
