Music meant more to me than a social life and just hangin out. haha just being tired of repacking my suit case every couple of days, and anytime i wanted to cop some new clothes i would have to throw away something I had to make room in the suitcase.

I've put myself in this position where I haven't set myself up with a Plan B. I don't have a safety net; it's all in.

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

Success is just being able to do what I love for a living, spend all my time doing it, connect with fans, and continue that for a long f - king time.

Whenever I perform I try to connect with the crowd and give off energy so when they walk away from the show its remarkable and its something they talk about it, like 'damn I cant wait to come back to my show.'

When you're choosing the track list and the sequencing, it's important to make sure that there's some strong concepts on there and that it matters and it says something... that it sticks with people.

I think the special stuff [music] still finds a way to be heard, as long as you pair it with a good release strategy.
