I was probably six years old when I first sang before an audience.

I'm not like a legend that - so I'm sort of in the middle in this sort of gray area where, you know, I'm creating music and I'm not saying there isn't an audience because there is because all of those people go out and spend $80 to $150 on a concert ticket.

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

It feels really great to be popular.

When it's your chance to step up to the plate, just hit it out of the park, and everybody will forget about everything that came before.

I just want people to take a step back, take a deep breath and actually look at something with a different perspective. But most people will never do that.

I've been a jazz artist playing pop and R&B my entire career.
