A great song can come from anybody. A great performance can come from anybody. It doesn't matter who you are, and that's truly what I believe.

I think it's important to evolve and grow and take risks creatively, instead of repeating yourself and doing the same thing over and over.

I was slicking my hair back when I was in sixth grade.

I think it's important to say something. If you're making music it's kinda' like, oh, cool, so is everyone else.

I think any time you're at the end of a trip you're usually pretty ready to come home and start working regularly again.

If I didn't make a single song in two months, I'm slippin'. You can't just party every night.

If you push yourself to stay hungry, you're always working towards at least taking steps forward. If you're taking steps forward, then you're making progress.
