When I was growing up, you had to conform and do the same thing that everyone else was doing. I would just go home and make music and be able to make myself happy, but I know that's more of a challenge for some people.

I treat Hollywood as my high school.

People think I shave my eyebrow... It's a scar.

I would leave school and be bummed out for 15 minutes, and then I would take my mind of things by making music.

The phrase "Be Good to Each Other" is very important to me and something that I wish had been said more when I was in high school.

I know not everyone is a musician, but it's important to find that craft and put all of your energy into that. It's about leaving the bad vibes and going to where the good vibes are.
