My father has been a voice of encouragement in times of desperation for so many people. But he died when I was so young that, for me, his music has been a way for me to get to know him better.

I record all night and sleep all day.

I like singing all songs, really, but I find that writing social commentary comes naturally.

Music is an expression of what's inside of you. And that's how I make music.

The victory's found in truth, like innocence found in youth Self defeat is your own dispute

Poverty breeds a lot of things. When people are desperate and trying to survive, they do drastic things.

Every one of my father's songs is a lesson.
