Funny how a melody sounds like a memory.
If I was concerned about my legacy, thereโs no way I would ever sit there [and be a reality-show judge]. Once your career becomes about someยฌthing other than the music, then thatโs what it is. Iโll never make that mistake.
The most important thing for me as an artist is having an identity.
I'm going to do everything I can to keep from being mainstream.
The evolution of the music is what allows it to survive.
I think too many people, if you are 46 you want to look 36, and if you're 36 you want to look 26. I didn't want to do that. I've earned the gray hairs. So I wanted to show that level of honesty.
