I get to focus on something I love to do 24-hours a day rather than trying to squeeze it in between midterms, or even during my normal workday. When I was at Google it was like you wake up at 7 and then you get home by 7 and you start your second job of music. So now I get to focus all my efforts on music, travel and play shows and do all of this stuff. That's the difference - That's all my life is, all day.

Its important to follow your dreams whatever that may be.

My fans are the only people who will be with me forever, all else comes and goes.

I guess this is cliche, but I'd love to work with Kanye West, Mark Ronson, Diplo.

I love having fans of all ages but it's especially cool for me to have young fans. I hope to be a role model for kids who want to follow their dreams.

People don't realize that there's no label and everything is self-financed and we make do and do our own thing. I was just happy to do my first video, I thought it was a fun experience.

My eclectic taste allows me to do something unique and not box myself in.
