Being honest is my job. That's what music is for me.

I love to leave the interpretation of my music up to the listener. It's fun to see what they'll say it is

I planned my success. I knew it was going to happen.

I'm a performance artist first; I'm a recording artist second.

I don't read music or anything, so when I produce, I go basically by ear.
