I always say I wanna work with Alicia Keys. I'm in awe of her.

I've definitely seen bands before they made money kind of change their thing on the next tour, and I prefer it when it's a little more raw.

Honolulu is a melting pot.

I can't even speak Hawaiian, but if you go there and listen to a Hawaiian song, you get captured because it's so beautiful, like the melody is just gorgeous and you know Bob Marley is on the radio every single day. It's very reggae-influenced down there. Basically, you haven't been to paradise if you haven't been to Hawaii.

With my being from Hawaii and being very family oriented I don't really have a fear of a tragic ending. I dont see any tragic ending for me.

I tend to overthink things. I'm not the guy who screams 'This is a world smash!' when I finish a song.

When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change 'cause you're are amazing just the way you are.
