It's the timing. I don't have to do it [drugs] all the time.

Sometimes it's hard to open up about your personal life, your relationship because you always want the music to be in the forefront. You want the music to be the biggest carrier of everything that you represent.

My hard work finally catching up with perfect timing

It's the timing. I don't have to do it [drugs] all the time.

You know that I can make hits. You know I can do all these rap records. So, I'm going to start opening up and letting you know my struggles.

I don't write hits for myself, or for other artists, or to just be writing it. I write it because I was born to do this. I was given this gift and I'm making the most of my opportunity.

If you want to play piano, you just gotta love piano, and I loved the way that music sounded from the beginning. Always did - everything about an instrument I loved.
