Visuals are as artistic as sounds, so being serious about both isn't a contradiction to me.

Billboard called my solo album, 'Standing In The Spotlight,' a great party album and even said that my raps put the Beastie Boys to shame.

I'm sure as I progress the sound may get cleaner but right now, I'm still interested in having it rough but never overwhelmingly so. I consider myself an amateur pop songwriter and I want that to come through, too.

I'm really lucky I'm still around. Everybody expected me to die next... But it was always someone else instead of me.

When I met Ronnie Spector, she walked in and said, 'You look like me.'

There's a side to being in a band that some people embrace and some don't: the fact that you're performing and you care about how it comes across.

I couldn't do rap. I was trying. I don't know how. I'm not good enough to know.
