I never want a fan to come and hear what they hear on their iPod, its about creating a unqiue and awesome experience.

I'll say this: Google is the best 9-5 anyone could ever get. Awesome environment, I loved my time there, but I grew up with my dream to pursue music full time.

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

I think my music is born out of the music that I personally like to listen to. I love amazing singer-songwriters and diverse artists but it's important to know your strengths.

I do all of marketing and promotion - it's the most exhaustive and rewarding part of the process and I wouldn't trade it for anything. The artist should be the person representing their brand because theyre the best person to do so.

I'm a Jewish kid who grew up loving hip hop in NY.

I'm treating every day as a special one and trying to live in the moment.
