I always think about the next generation and creating a different blueprint for them. That's my goal: to let them know there's another way.

I have not lost any of my crazy, fearless, raw, soulful, eclectic side and I plan on continuing to tell universal stories in an unforgettable way.

I always carry my classic black-and-white tux and custom-made George Esquivel saddle shoes.

I'm attracted to things that scare me, like 'Psycho,' my favorite Hitchcock movie.

Perfection is often the enemy of greatness.

I listen to Prince on my iPad. And I use a Chords & Scales app to warm up before performing.

People in my family and camp who grew up listening to rap music love 'We Are Young.' I've heard it play at weddings. I've heard it in graduation parties. It's a big idea and big song.
