As an artist, I've been very fortunate.

I know it sounds corny, but when you follow your dreams, it happens. And if it's music, take it seriously.

I don't like being lied to, so I only lie about the stupid things. White lies, basically.

I care about politics just like any other citizen. I'm against the war in Iraq, or any type of war.

I don't care what people say. My music's my music.

There hasn't been one moment in my career where I felt I didn't have any control over the creative aspects of my records.

My best personality trait that I think I'm very approachable. And my worst is that I can be moody.
